Witch's weed? - Scent magic, but no sorcery
Alkemia's "Green Witch" is wonderfully green, wonderfully spicy and surprisingly (apart from the mock hazel) not a hay fever/allergy candidate!
The longer you wear it, the more relaxing and fragrant a walk through an aromatic, later rather balsamic, light forest develops, in which you could easily meet a herb woman with her pannier on her back: "The Green Witch"!
Despite the strong dark spice, rays of sunlight seem to play through the greenery. Light-hungry ground cover plants, such as lemon verbena, would otherwise not be able to thrive: and they emphasize light and sun in this fragrance composition - the warm light in the dark!
A variety of aromas from different woods, long-stored and freshly cut, slightly bitter rowan bark (it's been a long time since I cooked mush from the fruits of the trees!), and the spicy juice of freshly cut sage meet with that of the "great witch's herb":
Not only externally and internally healing; the inherent plant spirit is said to connect the soul of the wearer with the "other world" - or so the legend goes.
Witchcraft stuff? Old wives' tale? Who knows!
Rather a rich, spicy blend of fragrances, in the shade of which a few rare forest orchids (also known as "lady's slipper", so beautiful to look at) still find their home, quietly seducing us with their sensual scent and caressing our senses, and whose charm even greets the always somewhat grumpy oakmoss in a friendly manner.
Is this fragrance composition really already perfume or is it still aromatherapy?
I don't know; maybe "both - and"!
For me, "Green Witch" is simply well-being: a spicy, relaxing break in the countryside - born of the moment (opening the bottle and spraying) and quickly accessible without long journeys or hikes.
"Alkemia" fragrance compositions are not commonplace; they all follow their own path and probably also like to puzzle us.
But is that wrong?
A moment of reflection, of pondering, of introspection wrapped in a sprayed veil of fragrance - why not?
"Green Witch" touches with a particularly spicy magic, even without the belief in witchcraft and dark myths.
This still youthful "green witch" accompanies you for some time in a pleasant way; it is worth tracing her charisma and feeling relaxation through this alone.
