A Moonshiner's Dream
On winter evenings, the fireplace blurs, the threads of smoke over the burnt logs, the cinnamon-red sparks that fly above and dance in the nut-brown cognac in heavy glasses, with the old, soaked barrels, the soft bourbon in the woods, whose warm, sweet aromas fall onto sparkling crystals of cane sugar on bright tobacco leaves, like noble droplets in marzipan cigars. There are moonshiners in their distilleries. They flicker over wooden floors like green ghosts of nutmeg and cloves, behind the fogged windows of my thoughts there by the fireplace.

Dawn Stewart from Huntington Beach, California creates the fragrances for her label 'Organic Perfume Girl' from handmade tinctures, which she combines with high-quality essential oils, resins, and/or concretes, all wild-harvested or organically grown. All packaging in which she ships her fragrances are hand-stickered recycled materials, such as old matchboxes for the testers.
For "Bourbon Barrel," she used a tincture of smoked oak and tobacco leaf, which she infused with vanilla pods, spices, and cognac. This charred oak reveals itself right at the beginning with a fine smokiness, suggesting a crackling fireplace, while vanilla and cognac crystallize beneath in sweet spiciness, initially highlighting a slightly sharp cinnamon in reddish tones, later weaving in cloves and nutmeg into the bright Virginia tobacco leaf. In the base, increasingly woody aromas become perceptible, with nutty-vanilla cognac notes repeatedly surfacing on the sharp-spicy tobacco leaf, clinging to the sweet crystals on the old barrel. A wonderfully cozy, moderate, warm fragrance for cold winter evenings.
