Why Nurture?
About this fragrance
May Day energy, bottled. Beltane opens with a bright burst of bergamot and citrus zest, sharpened by crushed green leaves and a whisper of sweet anise.
The heart blooms into a full wildflower meadow: powdery violet mingles with dewy rose, lily of the valley, diffusive jasmine, and a whisper of lilac, like stumbling into a forest clearing at the height of bloom.
It roots itself in an earthy, woodland finish, rich vetiver joining luminous cedarwood, creamy sandalwood, warm amber woods, sweet vanilla, a whisper of clove, and a clean soft musk for a scent that feels genuinely connected to the earth. Compare to Lush® brand Devil's Nightcap™.
