The Spirit of Grounded
For us, Grounded is more than a perfume; it's an homage, a ritual, and an invitation. It's about paying respect to the land, walking into a sacred forest where an offering of incense burns, inviting ancient presences. Imagine stepping into an untouched Japanese forest, where the Kami – the revered spirits or gods of nature – acknowledge your dedication and offer their protection. This fragrance is a journey where you don't just walk through the forest; you eventually become the forest, a part of its eternal cycle and strength.
An Olfactory Narrative
From the very first breath, Grounded opens with a bright, almost ceremonial clarity. A vibrant trio of Mandarin, Grapefruit, and Lemon bursts forth, like the first rays of sunlight piercing through dense canopy – fresh, uplifting, and full of pure energy. Yet, beneath this citrus luminosity, something ancient stirs: the warm, earthy spice of Cumin and the aromatic allure of Cardamom, reminiscent of the first fragrant wisps of incense curling upwards. A distinct, crisp note of Pine immediately transports you, placing you at the very edge of a deep, sacred woodland.
As the journey deepens, the heart of Grounded reveals its profound spiritual core. Here, the true essence of the offering emerges with the ethereal, resinous ascent of Olibanum, the purest form of frankincense. It's complemented by the smoky, woody depth of Cypriol, evoking the damp earth and aged roots of the forest floor. The steady, reassuring presence of Virginia Cedar provides a firm, woody backbone, while our signature Bigaflower™ adds an unexpected, expansive freshness, like a hidden, blooming glade within the ancient woods – a subtle hint of delicate life thriving amidst immense power.
And then, the drydown – this is where the transformation takes place, where you truly become the forest. A rich, earthy Patchouli roots you firmly to the soil, while the smoky, leathery warmth of Guaiac Wood evokes centuries-old timber. The deep, contemplative aroma of pure Incense lingers, a continuous offering, binding you to the spiritual essence of the land. Our powerful trio of modern amber-woody notes – Orcanox™, Ambramone™, and Lorenox™ – create an almost sublime, endless resonance, like the forest's breath expanding around you, protecting you, and finally, enveloping you completely. It's a scent that stays with you, a quiet but potent shield, a testament to your unbreakable connection to the earth.
