100% Natural Botanical Artisanal Fragrance by GATHER perfume

A NOTE FROM THE PERFUMER

** Due to the fact that I - Gather perfume - use exclusively 100% natural materials, batch variance is to be expected. This is the same in any luxury, handcrafted art medium ( such as dance and opera) and agriculturally dependent arts such as viticulture, honey, or microbrewery. Gather perfumes are often limited editions for this reason, as well as the fact that some materials can only be obtained for small windows of time or no longer available at all. If you prefer uniformity in your fragrances, you may want to consider a more commercially available or mixed media brand. 

With Love,
Ananda

A favorite

This is my second time buying this perfume as it's one of my absolute favorites out of the many, many natural perfumes I've tried. It's beautifully balanced and lasts all day, with the rich florals eventually drying down to a woodsy-honey scent on me. I hope you always make this one!

Brilliant

This is a brilliant combination of sultry tuberose and spicy carnation. I am so happy Ananda gifted me w/ a sample of this beautiful perfume in an order I made. I continue to be blown away by her creative genius. It smells like you crushed both tuberose and carnation flower petals and infused them into your skin. If you love floral perfumes that are sultry and lush check this one out.
