Orange Blossom Attar: Orange Blossom / Neroli, Sandalwood, and Distilled Orange: Shibui Attars Series

I had originally made some Attars for some Japanese in-laws.

They were wanting something... Shibui.

Shibui (渋い) (adjective), shibumi (渋み) (noun), or shibusa (渋さ) (noun) are Japanese words which refer to a particular aesthetic of simple, subtle, and unobtrusive beauty. Like other Japanese aesthetics terms, such as iki and wabi-sabi, shibui can apply to a wide variety of subjects, not just art or fashion.

When they first smelled them, they said simply, “these are stunningly beautiful”.

Friends and family of theirs eventually started asking for them - and I figured it was high time to start offering these here in my shop. Seems folks love them.

These are simple solo-fleur compositions, as opposed to my more complex Attars that I’ve become quite well-known for. These are less expensive and more straight forward single-flower Attar scents.

Simple. Subtle. Unobtrusive beauty.

With that said...they are stunningly beautiful!
