I haven’t had a contest or drawing for a long time, so was thinking about what to do for the next one. An idea popped into my head when I received a shipment from
Eden Botanicals the other day and saw that they had generously included 9 samples. Whenever I order bulk materials from them, they send a whole pack of small samples in 1 ml vials, so I have quite a collection. Some of these are materials I already have in large quantities, so it occurred to me that it would be nice to share these little sniffies with those who don’t usually buy essential oils, resins, absolutes, or extracts.
Some things, like agarwood SCO2 extract, I’m keeping for myself just because they’re so expensive and/or hard to come by that even a small quantity is a good thing to keep and use. The samples in the drawing will be some of the more ordinary things, but it’s still an opportunity to smell these natural notes by themselves rather than as components of a finished fragrance. The winner will receive a package of at least 6 samples. If enough people enter, I’ll send out 2 sets of samples.
If you would like to be entered in the drawing, leave a comment saying what one of your favorite natural perfume notes is. The winner will be randomly drawn on Saturday, April 7.
By the way, if you are testing davana and haven't sent me your comments yet, please do so soon, as I'm going to post about it this week or next.
