Garden of Delights

Here you will find a list of the flowers, herbs, resins, spices, raw materials that we use to produce our perfumes.

We are also planning to add essential oils to our products line, with a pefume making kit for your enjoyment.

Almond Almond

We use bitter almond which is also an African/Asian grown tree.

Aloeswood Aloeswood

Aloeswood oil (Agarwood, OUD in our day) is obtained from the Aquilaria (botanical name) tree, an evergreen tree native to Asia and southern India. Some of the best Agarwood came from the region of India known today as Tamil Nadu. In the days of Esther India was one of the southern provinces under Xerxes where Esther would have known and perhaps even used this in incense or some perfumery combination. We have not created a perfume combination as of yet the scent blended with other scents can add it's own character and tenacity. Such as the scripture Christ in you the hope of glory. God ads His strength to who we are and His attributes overshadow our weaknesses.

Balsam Balsam

Balsam has been widely used in the past for frangrant balms, incense, and perfumery.the scent is rich and resinous, some can be pine like where as others in the conifers variety remind us of christmas.

Benzoin Benzoin

This is one of the greatest additions to a rich caramel vanilla spice type scent. Benzoin comes to us from Siam in a dry or liquid resin. Depending on how you buy it, the resin or oil can be difficult to work with but very rewarding.

Broom Broom

This comes to us from france in the form of an absolute. It has a hay like sweet honey scent and works well with spice oils and florals. Also called Genet broom. Some believe that this is the broom of the bible, because the wilderness lands of Israel and Jordan are full of it.

Calamus Calamus
 

Carnation Carnation
 

Cassie absolute-Acacia tree Cassie absolute-Acacia tree

Cassie is extracted from the Acacia tree which grows in the middle east and other parts of Asia. The wood of the Acacia tree was reputed to be the "Shittah" of the bible in which the tabernacle and other furnishings for the tabernacle of Moses.  The wood of the Acacia is reputed to be resilient to pests, dry-rot and moisture.
