Grimoire Wild Veil Perfume Solid Perfume

Full moonlight shines on shadowy faces. Eucalyptic shadows flit from the Otherworld on ethereal strings of pungent herbs like sage leaves in the nettles. A flickering hiss. Bengal flames in the tops of the lonely Joshua tree somewhere in the cold of the deserts at night. Bright voices in the green mists, fading slowly in the mint dust of the earth, in books yellowed by tobacco and pale as vanilla. I must have found a grimoire between moss-covered walls.

Abby Hinsman makes her herbal fragrances by hand. She either grows most of the materials herself or harvests them from her two and a half hectare forest in Vermont. Both her fragrances and her delivery times vary accordingly, as she only produces very small batches.
"Grimoire" (a spell book with magical knowledge) reminds me strongly of Abby's "Joshua Tree" with its blend of sage, herbs, resins and minty patchouli. Right from the start, light green, spicy, herbaceous, pungent sage dominates. However, eucalyptus and camphor make it seem even more ethereal here, before citrusy elemi resins and minty-earthy patchouly gradually shift the impression towards moss at the heart, a moss that initially drifts in a resinous mist, which gradually softens the sharpness with soft brownish tobacco notes and delicate vanilla aromas, but without completely losing the ethereal-green overtones. The magic works moderately over several hours.
