This year's tidying up turned up a selection of old favorites, rarities, discontinued, and vintage Alkemia perfumes that we are delighted to offer to the collector and the curious. Labels will vary with some having a special Alkemia Vintage Label and others having their original artwork/painting labels.
All bottles are our 5ml amber apothecary bottles unless otherwise noted.
________________________________________________________________
Madam Pearl: The essence of a deliciously scandalous tea reading. White tea leaves on fine bone china, a parchment letter from a mysterious stranger, a menage a trois of elegant vanillas, and a piquant pinch of aphrodisiac white pepper.
Memoriam: An olfactory ode to love and loss. Heirloom roses, memories wrapped in woodsmoke, a scattering of ashes. Contains an infusion of Balm of Gilead - an ancient herb for dispelling sadness and soothing sorrowful hearts.
More Light!: A perfume to banish gloom and recall the light - a sparkling brightness of uplifting bergamot tea, lemon balm, gingerflower, lime leaf, fresh hay, a playful splash of champagne, a twist of grapefruit, and spiritually centering white sandalwood.
Musc Layering Note: Our single note musc is a non-animalistic, modern musk that works beautifully on all genders. It's lovely layered with florals, teas, woods, and aquatics and/or as a stand alone perfume.
Offering: Fir & resinous woods, offertory fruits, spiced ale, beeswax candles, a whisper of ritual incense, and freshly baked cakes dripping with wild honey.
Persephone: A love spell of sexy ripe pomegranates and dark red merlot wine.
Porta Alchemica: Italian campari, myrtle-leaved orange, cascarilla, red currants, cypress, neroli, olive blossoms, bay, tonka, caramello, hay, violet leaf, tobacco leaf, white rose, patchouli, dry amber.
Psychedelique: A hypnotic, narcotic, and diabolically erotic blend of Nag Champa incense, dark spiced rum, black amber, opium, laudanum, hashish, with a raunchy splash of sexy patchouli
Queen of Hearts: A pulchritude of brandied black cherries saucily enrobed in a dark decadence of praline tart
Raxeira: A golden ray of amber piercing like sunlight through a barn window, illuminated motes of sawdust rising on woody aldehydes, old newspapers, dusty vetiver, orris root, dried leather harnesses and a faint touch of saddlesoap.
Revel: A debauchery of majoun, gaiac wood, katsura, dirty vanille, nicotania, fruitwood sap, candied ginger, muscenone, aphrodisiac hedione, dark tobacco, bitter cacao, burnt caramel, and absinthe blanche.
Rêverie Balnéaire: The remains of a driftwood beach bonfire, white sand, dried seaweed, a kiss of ocean waves, and sun warmed skin musk.
Stag Moon: Staghorn fern; deerstongue leaves; rum infused maple, birch, and cedar woods; oak moss, autumn musk, clove buds, autumn leaves, deerhide leather, and smoke.
Terrae (Ambre II): An earthy, sexy, primally raw blend of exquisitely aged Indonesian patchouli and dark amber.
Une nuit de Cléopâtre: A regal seduction of Egyptian kyphi incense, amber, warm caramel, tonka bean, vegan civet musk, spiced Sahlab tea, Satyrion orchid root, white honey and a boudoir strewn with intoxicating flowers - narcissus, jasmine, ylang ylang and honeysuckle.
Vamp: A darkly erotic blend of opium, labdanum, Tonka, balsam, sueded leather, and black musk created in homage to the liberation of the Roaring Twenties.
Vanille Patchouli: Purest vanilla seduced and despoiled by wild, dirty patchouli.
Venficium: A viridescent potion of otherworldly botanicals - wild ginger, purple hyacinths, datura accord, green ivy, nightshade leaf, wet oakmoss, tonka, freshly turned earth, and dark galbanum.
Voice of the Sea: An olfactory musing from the underside of a wooden dock - salinaceous seabreezes, sun bleached driftwood, crushed seashells, a twist of Meyers lemon peel, barnacles, mineralistic sand, and seasoaked timbers.
Wing of Bat: A surprisingly clean chypre of oakmoss, green patchouli, crushed ferns, grey amber, a faint trace of musk, and a hint of leather.
