In a Moment of Clarity
Sometimes one perceives reality, the essence of nature in a triviality that manifests itself in a glaring bitterness, like light falling through the flesh of a grapefruit, ethereal in the ripeness that freezes on the peels and branches of unripe oranges and opens a clearing in the forest, where harsh cypress needles snow down, bright resin crystals waft like a mist of past times, thawing the frost in the roots of the grasses and revealing clay soil beneath, grounding you in a moment of clarity.
**
Kevin Peterson from Sfumato in Detroit, Michigan, believes that over the course of evolution, humans have developed a kind of collective olfactory memory, allowing natural scents to develop and transport subtle stimulus responses over millennia. His natural fragrances, handcrafted from 100% natural raw materials, are thus time capsules.
The term "Epiphany" originally describes a sudden intuitive insight into reality through a simple everyday event. Peterson creates this moment of clarity first with herb-fresh grapefruit and bitter-cool petitgrain, whose notes one follows like a dazzling green beam of light into the citrusy overtones of bright resin and cypress needles. Herbal lavender and rosemary enhance the impression of a bright forest clearing, where between fresh green woods (Katrafay, cypress) frost-crunching grasses (vetiver) and herb-moist earth (galbanum, vetiver, katrafay) unfold in the base. A fleeting moment of breathing, moderate to skin-close due to its naturalness, yet lasting for several hours.

Green aspects like leaf stems blend with zesty-bitter notes. Bright resinous wood, quite well done but not for me.

A grandiosely disturbed non-floral crossover. The lavender, galbanum, and rosemary clash so intensely with the grapefruit and orange...
