Önd - Natural Ritual Perfume - Herbal lavender perfume • Norse soul

Önd is a light, breathy herbal, inspired by smudge rituals, and the healing and cleansing power of herbs, it features main notes of lavender, artemisia, sage and galbanum with a base of bay leaves, cloves, turmeric, amyris and palo santo.
 
Önd is the vital energy, breath and life-spark. In my personal view it is that, which distinguishes life from death, animateness and inanimateness (see lat. anima, vitalism). A plants Önd is sacrificed to provide healing or nourishment. It is also the literal breath of a person or animal (or plant) and in a figurative sense it is the power to transform and create change, the same way our lungs transform oxygen into carbon dioxide. This power, which is present in oneself, but also in landscapes and sacred places is one that lends itself very well to use in magic and ritual.
