Cherubim

A special iteration of a vanilla perfume that showcases the many faces this luxurious, complex, warming absolute has, Cherubim lands in the senses with class and bemusement - a sweetness that welcomes soft curiosity as a tasteful feminine impression. A note of imphepho with its earthy, sharp but rounded scent fuses with the jasmine-forward and French lavender floral layers. Dill-seed lends a distinct herbaceous edge, lifting Cherubim’s slight musky, old-soul, dry undertone. Each note, however subtle, contributes to the choir that is crucial to Cherubim’s dreamy, angelic feeling.

With varying depictions throughout history and mythology, Cherubim are winged celestial beings who guard sacred places and are closely associated with divine presence. Usually represented as hybrid creatures with characteristics of humans and other animals, Cherubim hold a powerful, protective presence in heavenly spaces and angelic ranks. 

As a fragrance, Cherubim is sweet, with golden grace and a bronze-like satin warmth. A profile conceptualised from vanilla-imbued ethereal dreams that we have given wings to.

During heavenly hours, 
you stand on ivory-cream coloured clouds,
The sun's rays warm your back.
Soft pink signatures of dimensional light
and smooth, rich tones paint divine life
as a sanctum, as a pillow for divinity.

Your mind’s eye - a scene of stained glass windows 
and gilded adornment, 
gold leaves and sculptures.
Great angel wings wrap around 
the edges of perception
as guardians of something precious. 
Time holds a satin touch and quiet comfort.
As it passes it trails a celestial chorus that lifts in flight -
a glorious opening -
then lands into feathery rest.
