Arizona Panorama
Presumably the mezcal is clouding the moment, the late Sedona sun at any rate dancing in the tequila, washing a white wave over our perceptions and the damp clay at the foot of Red Rocks. Gusano de Maguey, gone gone away - and from the cooler canyons a breeze blows tart sage.
Then the pinyons brand brown-red balsam over the whole picture, a cloud of spicy comforting forest, like a fine filter of color among the rocks, the warmth of evening over the barren soils, the aura of the pines of Arizona, they hum summer in Sedona.
Bright weaves of incense wander down into the sweetgrass meadow, there the earthy roots shimmer like a mirage over the desert, between them dry hay tumbles to trees long since parched, glimmering residual light from herbaceous balm in their comforting dreams.

With Providence Perfume Company, based in Rhode Island, Charna Ethier combines her years of experience at several major perfume companies with the spirit of her youth, growing up on a New England farm with her hippie parents and learning to make natural perfumes. Both the high quality of her 100% natural raw materials and her virtuosity are reflected in her creations.
"Sedona Sweet Grass" opens with neat tequila in the sage before a wonderfully balsamic pine cloud hovers like a gentle aura over the slightly sharp, rooty sweet grasses for quite some time, which are enriched by hay-like coumarin, soft grass and citrusy incense. At the end, a faint, balsamic-herbaceous glow lingers in warm, dry woods. The scent wanders moderately through the Arizona panorama for a good eight hours.
