Wandering creatures from clouds
It could be like that. It would probably be like a door, no more bodies behind it, all grown without structure, like wandering beings made of clouds. There would be a clarifying cool haze of spicy herbs, frost and menthol, tiny dewdrops of lime dancing in the daylight mist.
There would still be traces of illusion, moving like cattle from stables, like animal shadows of past souls into deeper darker spheres. Until they gradually disappeared therein, in the sweet iridescence of dusty earths, in dissolution with the resinous woods to incense in spicy cooling waves as well as blissfully warm balsamic veils, over rubber-milk shimmering threads that seem to stand still soon.

Serena Ava Goode (Franco) of Ava Luxe in Massachusetts handcrafts all of her vegan fragrances on demand. "I believe that certain fragrances can have an uplifting effect on emotions, help attain a sense of serenity, or even help center your consciousness for improving meditation practices." she writes about her work. "Moksha in Hinduism describes liberation from the cycle of death and rebirth, the release of attachment to the illusion of relative existence in the material world, that is, a state beyond the human mind." Serena Ava Goode conceives of "Moksha" as a fragrance that can facilitate deeper meditation through its calming effects.
Indeed, the blend of woods used seems like incense, at first light and spicy, mentholated and Hesperic cool (cypress, pine), then slightly animalic-earthy (oud, presumably Indian), before the deeper darker, woodier, balsamic-sweet and smoky nuances of cedar and guaiac become more apparent. Towards the end, the Indian sandalwood emerges like white dried glue. The cloud beings wander for about six to seven hours moderate to skin.
