Fimbulwinter - Limited Edition *New Release*
Norse mythology calls the end of the world "Ragnarok", which is a large battle between the gods that leads to Earth's destruction. Immediately before Ragnarok however, comes Fimbulwinter or "the great winter". Fimbulwinter is three winters in a row with no break for summer and where snow comes in from all directions, creating a cold, icy and desolate landscape before the end of the world. --- A powdery, cold, white ozone scent with just a hint of dirt and sharp peppermint.
Tussie-Mussie - Limited Edition *New Release*
Also called a nosegay, these little bouquets have been around for a long time. Originally used to mask bad odors in medieval times (to make the nose gay or happy), in Victorian times they became quite popular as gifts as well as fashion accessories. During the holiday season they were often brought along for wassailing (singing carols door to door) or used to decorate doors and windows. In those times, handmade gifts with thought behind them were highly valued, so a nosegay was a prime gift to give during the holidays. --- A small and sweet bouquet of carnations, freesia, iris and baby's breath.
Sinterklaas - Limited Edition *New Release*
This is a holiday celebrated in the Netherlands and Belgium that was the very basis for Santa Claus. Sinterklaas celebrates the name day of Saint Nicholas, the patron saint of children. He had a long white beard and wore a red bishop's dress - it's not hard to see how he influenced the figure Santa Claus! --- A scent based on the smells that make us think of Santa Claus and the holidays. Spruce trees, holly berries, juniper berries, sugar cookies and gingerbread.
Fruitcake - Limited Edition *New Release*
A traditional holiday cake, often ridiculed and sometimes loved, with quite a history. Even the ancient Romans used to make fruitcake (though it wasn't just for holidays). Over time, fruitcake eventually became a dessert used to celebrate the harvest and was supposed to offer good luck as well. Eventually however, people were legally restricted to eating fruitcake only on special occasions due to the cake being considered too rich. To this day, fruitcakes are most often seen during the holiday season. Love 'em or hate 'em, they make anyone think of the holidays! --- Rum soaked bread with raisins, candied cherries, and traditional spices.
Yule Log - Limited Edition *New Release*
The Yule Log is a very large log which is burned as part of a traditional Yule or Christmas celebration. The Yule log dates back as far as the Midwinter festivals in which the Norsemen would drink and sit back watching the fire dance and flicker around a burning log while enjoying tales of untold glory. --- Smoky resins, torched yule logs, burnt tobacco, all within a peaceful comforting fireplace that is sure to calm the soul.
Saturnus - Limited Edition *New Release*
Saturnalia is a feast of the Romans in dedication to the god Saturn himself. It is an extremely large and important event in Rome and often times there were a series of holidays and customs that were practiced at the same time (such as that of making and giving small gifts). It is a time to eat, drink and be merry and let go of the normal everyday worries and struggles. --- A Roman feast fit for a god! Fresh baked goods from the market, warm delicious honey, and several casks of fine wine.
Pear Tree - Limited Edition *New Release*
A partridge in a pear tree. Partridge was derived from Perdix a sacred king whom served his goddess Athena. Athena was worshiped in Boeotia as once being the mother of all pear trees. When Perdix was thrown to his death toward the endless seas, Athena then changed him into a bird so that he may fly up and take his place rightfully at her side. --- Luscious pears, husky wood, a freshly picked flower for the goddess herself, mixed in an extremely light creamy base.
Nisse - Limited Edition *New Release*
A Scandinavian belief in a guardian spirit which takes the form of a gnome, usually appearing as a very short man wearing a large pointed hat. As a household spirit, a Nisse could easily perform many chores around the home and in almost all cases, better than their human counterparts. The Nisse are known for being very temperamental and in exchange for prosperity of one’s home, only asks something as simple as a single bowl of porridge left out on Christmas Eve. --- Oatmeal, maple syrup, brown sugar and raisins.
Fir Tree - Limited Edition *New Release*
Quite possibly the original origin of the Christmas tree. The Fir Tree is believed by many to have a spirit which lives from within that is kind to all and takes the form of an imp. The fir is celebrated in Germany as late as the 19th century and is decorated with lights, various flowers, and other objects such as eggs and people usually gather around it in both song and dance during religious festivals. --- Warm inviting branches, candied apples, and lightly scented carnations.
Yule Pixie - Limited Edition *New Release*
As its name implies, this pixie is only out during the Yule season and she is easily lured by the sweet aromas of the holiday. --- Sugar cookies, candy canes and hollyberry.
