Status: Open till 3pm est Sunday, November 26th
 
Arctic Fox
A sexy little number to inspire snuggles on the coldest nights. Soft amber nestled in sumptuous cashmere, steamed rice milk, winter white musk, and snow-covered fir trees.

Avalanche
A formidable potion for invoking inner strength. Cold coconut water with angelica, crystallized ginger, and vanilla-poached rhubarb over hinoki wood, lemon verbena, and green tangerine zest. Wear this scent whenever you need extra courage and fortitude.

Clara's Courage
A tiny satin slipper pelted the Mouse King with a thwack! He turned to find Clara charging him, her one remaining shoe brandished high, her face flushed with tearful rage. He sneered at the child and did not see the Nutcracker retrieve his sword. In one swift stroke he drove it into the Mouse King's side. A flash of light, a puff of smoke, and all the rats had vanished with their monarch. Clara reached for her Nutcracker, but where his broad jaw and wooden teeth had been, there was a soft cheek, a warm smile beneath kind, shining eyes. The curse was lifted. The prince was free.
A multi-dimensional scent that begins with creamy pink rose petals and ripe apricot, warms to reveal hinoki wood, saffron, and mandarin, then resolves into a balance of opoponax and frankincense.
This is a most high and exalted magic: the power to seize the narrative and become the hero of your own story.

Cloak of Evergreens
In East of the Sun, West of the Moon, the Lassie adorns herself in a mantle of conifer boughs as she leaves her childhood home to go and live in gilded captivity. I loved how it communicated her autonomy and true sense of self-worth, regardless of circumstance. Snow-covered spruce, iced cedar tips, golden pine sap, icicle musk, and the fading memory of tea by the fireside.  

Clockwork Dolls
A quirky contraption for lining things up and getting well organized.
Top notes of yellow mandarin and fresh rosemary, a heart of sandalwood incense, and a base of bronze musk, black amber, and Sumatran benzoin.
Wear to achieve the speed and efficiency of a well-oiled machine.

Comfort & Joy
A bright effusion to lift your spirits and remind you that all is truly well.
English tea, frothy vanilla creme, smoked ambrette, wood musk, tonka butter, and a blush of ripe apricot.
Wear to dissolve stress, banish anxiety, and snuggle down into contentment.

Dance of the Mirlitons
A dainty melange for clarity and calm.
Top notes of Persian lime and almond, a heart of violet, clary, and lily of the valley, and a smooth base of blue amber, styrax, and indigo musk.
Wear to restore perspective and inner peace.

Dew Drop Fairy
From the far corners of the world they came to celebrate the return of the Prince and to welcome the brave Princess Clara to the Kingdom of Sweets. Among them was a fairy clad in glistening dewdrops who swept through the palace gardens. At her touch, the flowers sprang at once to life, even in mid-winter.
A verdant composition of crystalline waters dancing over lotus petals, bluebells, and mimosa.
Wear to stir the senses and enliven the mind. It’s a bracing elixir against weariness and brain fog.

Drosselmeyer
The grandfather clock struck twelve, and in the gathering gloom the shadows came loose from the walls to scuttle about on their own. It's only a trick of the light, she thought, but she held her Nutcracker closer. She could swear that the carved owl atop the clock's face was not an owl at all, but her cloak'ed godfather, the wizard Drosselmeyer!
Darkness takes on a life of its own with smoldering sassafras and cedarwood, mulling spices, pale patchouli, black suede, copal, and vetiver root.
This is a potent spell of transformation: for harnessing the power of night and achieving the impossible.

Emerald Velvet
A regal perfume for your most special celebrations. Douglas fir, white sandalwood, heliotrope, pale amber, sweet oud, and a trace of brisk green cardamom. Wear to invoke the Divine Feminine in her most benevolent aspect. Anoint green candles to curry Her favor pay Her homage.

This year’s gingerbread house is a flight of fancy.

Wear to encourage optimism and expand imagination.

Gingerbread Sanctuary
The concept for this gingerbread house comes from a lovely friend and member of our Nui Cobalt Facebook Group. In her own words, “...it's the sweetest confectionery structure, with a Black Lives Matter sign in the yard. It's a building where immigrants are safe regardless of their paperwork, and yes there's candy on the roof. The little gingerbread people inside really believe in justice and goodness, and they invite their friends of all colors, abilities, genders, ethnicities and religions to celebrate with them each year. And it's a riotous good time but also unbelievably cozy with the deepest, truest sweetness. I think we need it this year. The spirit of loving kindness.”

The Mouse King
Swords clashed and cannons boomed as the battle raged under the giant Yule tree. The Mouse King's army overwhelmed the Nutcracker, backed him into a corner and disarmed him. Seven chattering heads roared with laughter. They twitched their whiskers and flashed their eyes, rearing back for the final blow.
The tang of wild opopanax, a snap of rhubarb, freshly grated ginger, dusty brown suede, dark guaiac wood, labdanum, and savage musk.

The Stroke of Midnight
She waited in silence until the guests had all gone home and the family was asleep, Then Clara crept back into the parlor to comfort her injured Nutcracker. She wrapped his jaw in her nightgown sash and cradled him gently to sleep.
Night enshrouds the remnants of a merry Yuletide fete. Orange pomanders adorned with clove, beeswax combs still rich with honey, an imposing Douglas fir, and incense from Christmas Eve mass clinging to woolen cloaks.
This scent weaves a spell of deep peace and lasting tranquility. It brings on restful sleep and the sweetest of dreams.

A hush fell over the royal court. Her Majesty, Queen of the Land of Sweets, arrived with angels in attendance. Her crown was glistening amethyst and every footfall was a feather.
