HEIRLOOM OAK
| MEMOIRS ARMOIRE |
If furniture could talk. The lineage of immortal oak armoires. Hope chests still faintly fragrant, infusing the linens with memories. Marks of bourbon branded into the grains of the side table over time. Naturally beautiful shades of chestnut, bordeaux and amber, telling tales of times when all was written with pen and paper, when the fireplace warmed the rooms, and the scent of oak wood cords was the scent of belonging.

The Personal, The Process, The Gathered
There are pieces in my life with incredible sentimental value, and I know I'm not alone in this attachment to heritage wood items.
My childhood oak furniture that survived the snow and rain that followed after a 100 foot pine tree fell through my roof above my head in a storm (luckily I also survived).
A wooden chest I inherited from my grandfather that holds my sacred altar items and my vintage perfumes, including his. This chest is in the photos.
My mother's enormous armoire which holds all of her dried medicinal herbs, formulas, and handmade skin creams, as well as holiday china and silver.
My oversized coffee table with industrial iron wheels and the chunkiest of woods.
Inaudible stories that rise from the telling marks of fallen tobacco embers, candles melted to the end, hot tea mugs without a coaster, wine glasses that dripped, or a favorite whiskey tumbler placed in a habitual spot.
Heirloom Oak is a nod to the sweetness of storytelling wood.
Smooth and beckoning, this perfume alchemy is a synergistic composition of 28 pure plant essences.

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
