About
Persephone’s quiet, honeyed world, where sweetness brushes against something darker and more mysterious.
You experience thyme-touched honey that feels both herbal and luminous, softened by powdery orris and a gentle, skin-like musk that keeps everything intimate and grounded. Inspired by thyme honey from a mountainous village near the legendary entrance to Hades in the Peloponnese, it carries a subtle tension between sunlight on wild thyme and the shadow of the underworld, never becoming sticky or overwhelming.
You can wear it when you want something that feels tender, nostalgic, and quietly hypnotic, in a compact 10 ml oil format made with fractionated coconut oil.
Notes: Honey, Wild Thyme, Orris, Soft Musk
