The Burren Botanicals - Spring Harvest The Burren Perfumery / Vincent

When the plague broke out in Bad Tölz in 1634 and the cholera in 1832, the people used herbal mixtures in the belief that they could conquer the diseases. These were either set on fire or hung on the doors in linen or jute bags.
In 1832 the so-called Cholera Letter was published with instructions on the herbs to be used. Pharmacists mixed a mixture of juniper, laurel, vinegar and saltpeter, or sulphur, to smoke letters. In the Middle Ages, spruce resin, St. John's wort and wormwood were more commonly used. While reading I imagined how that might have smelled, probably not like Spring Harvest.

It's spring, people stay at home and, since you don't have the opportunity to wear your fragrances for a walk, they are tried or applied at home - so am I I still have samples of The Burren The Burren, in Carron in County Clare, I think it's more than good because I like Artisan -no, not John Varvatos-, because you can see the craftsmanship, or as they say in English, Craftsmanship. They use products only naturally, just like L'Occitane.

In spring I tested Spring Harvest again, actually a fragrance for women, I think you can also test it as a man, because Harvest -yu Deutsch Ernte- is not a fragrance whose substances kill you, on the contrary. It is pleasant and light, playful like a day on the beach when the sun's rays slowly warm up. A young woman with straw blonde hair, a linen dress and a denim jacket is standing in the dunes. The scent of salt, dunes and the perfume creates a fine scent that evokes associations.

This mixture of wild herbs in combination with lemon balm, fennel and mint is a really good concept. However, as the fragrance develops, I have the feeling of smelling camomile, which doesn't harm the fragrance at all, on the contrary, it gives it a rather warm feeling, because even if nature awakes in spring, it can be a bit cooler.

For me, a fragrance is for ladies who are not into frills and like to be in nature, but who feel really comfortable with a fragrance on their body that is not penetrating or overlays the area.

And finally, I wish us all the days with Corona to pass and hope that all the members of Parfumo are healthy and well. As they say here in Ireland, "Take good care and God bless."
