Narcissus “I wish that life should not be cheap, but sacred, I wish the days to be as centuries, loaded, fragrant.” Ralph Waldo Emerson 1803-1882
Sniffapalooza Interview with Lyn Ayre 1September2008.pdf If I am away, I'll make a note here, to let you know when I'll be back.
I take an Artisan approach to perfuming, designing and hand-crafting each one, drop by drop, deftly balancing and harmonizing the essences into a cohesive whole. I begin creation with the mysterious and romantic base notes; followed by the heart and soul of the perfume, the heart notes, and lastly, the meeters and greeters, which are called the head notes. My love and appreciation is imbued into every bottle. All perfumes noted below are available through Coeur d'Esprit Natural Perfume Salon. Please email me with your choices and I will send them out for you. LynAyre@telus.net Thank you.

I feel like I have hit the jackpot here; I really like everything! I'll try to give you some more detailed feedback later on. And the ambergris is amazing--very delicate. I don't think I had a very clear idea of what it was going to smell like and am looking forward to playing around with it. I was very curious about the hyraceum too, and the first whiff out of the vial seemed to fit in with what you might expect from an animal's excretion. It will be fun to see what I can do with it." RO, Spain "Dear Lyn, I just received the (second set of samples included-Chez Noir, Paris Nightlife, a la Rouge, Autumn Aura, Wonder, and Midnight Blue) six samples I ordered.

Words page... If you would like to comment on your perfume, just
email me and I will publish it to my website. It's
important to note that the Oakmoss is low-atronol, the Peru balsam and Citrus oils I use are steam
distilled and safe in the quantities I use. Please also be aware that these perfumes are made with 100% pure essential oils and absolutes. Perfumers and Aromatherapists alike agree that it is not advisable to use the same oil (or any other product) day in and day out for weeks or even years on end. And, it is never advisable to use undiluted essential oils on your skin. This is how we become sensitized to certain products. I always suggest having two or three perfumes on the go to use for different occasions and at different times throughout the year. If you decide to do that, choose ones that do not have the same ingredients as each other, for best results. Again, this is when getting samples is a real blessing. My first order of business is always 'do no harm'. Every perfume I create is infused with the ancient wisdom of the Tibetan singing bowls and Crystals. They are also toned, and surrounded by colour energy.

This is my Entry into the worldwide acclaimed “Summer of Patchouli Love” sponsored by Monica Miller at http://perfumepharmer.com/organic-perfume-skincare-remedies/ Patchouli Paisley Perfume opens with a bright citrus scent that immediately refreshes the senses and cheers the mind. The white flower accord of Jasmine, Neroli, and Orange Blossom takes you into the depths of your heart gently opening it up to the sunny side of life. The Patchouli and other earthy notes ground you to keep you well-centred and full of joi de vive. Please see How To Order above. Alcohol-based only. Unisex Fougère 2011 Read the Review: Patchouli Paisley.pdf
Purple Iris ... opens with a bright spicy note that soon gives way to the heady floral accord of iris, jasmine, mimosa, cananga, linden blossom, and rose. There are some edible coconutty notes created in this blend, which are perfect for summer. A base of Sandalwood, Ambrette, and Ambergris hold the scent and make it last a long time on the skin. Based in Perfumers' alcohol. Floral 2009 Please see How To Order above. Breath
of Gaia perfume is based on the story of the Oracle
at Delphi. With top notes of citrus, reminders of the scents of the sea, and the
flower and herb covered hills of Greece, this perfume has a grounded base of Oud, blonde tobacco, hay, labdanum,
spikenard, and low-atranol Oakmoss.
...The
journey took her through a grove of citrus trees, then down a path overgrown
with herbs and flowers, and finally deep into sticky rock rose thickets heavily
laden with labdanum resin, which caught on her white robes. She entered the cave
and saw the questers awaiting her presence. Seated upon a tripod above a deeply
etched chasm, which exuded the sugary ethylene vapours, she rested, dropping into
a deep meditation as the earth exhaled. The sweet Breath of Gaia swept over her
inducing a trance-like state. Then she began to answer…”
Bridge Notes When creating a perfume formula, we can use notes that are classified as both base and heart or heart and head. These are called Bridge Notes and they smooth the way from one layer of the perfume to the next. Some are: Jasmine, Rose, Vanilla, Ylang, Clary Sage, and Lavender. The transition through this Citrus Floral is smooth and delicious. Notes of sweet Rose de mai, sexy Jasmine sambac, lovely green-coloured / green-scented Lavender absolute, creamy Vanilla, flow from one refrain to the next. A full fruity/citrus head accord of Tangerine, Palma Rosa, Bergamot, and others, leads the way. Citrus Floral 2007
Citrance My wish was to make a predominantly citrus perfume
that wouldn’t just fly off one’s body. I accomplished this with the help of
ladies Lavender, Chamomile, and Litsea who were heralded in by a bright hit of
bergamot, lime, and ginger and supported on a base of Cedarwood and Vetiver.
Great staying power. Read the Review: Citrance.pdf
Eau d'Esprit I wanted to use all parts of the Bitter Orange tree in a perfume formula. With a citrus opening of bergamot fcf (in place of bitter orange, which is not part of the bitter orange tree but also does not have the photo-toxicity of an expressed oil), orange, tangerine, and lime, it evolves to the next layer of orange blossom water absolute, Neroli, orange blossom absolute, and petitgrain, drying down to patchouli, labdanum, hyraceum, and amber accord to ground this truly wonderful citrus floral perfume. Citrus Floral 2004 Read
the Review: Eau d Esprit.pdf
EnLighten
This
perfume features Sassy Tuberose, in all her glory. Opening with the fresh splash
of bergamot and tangerine, then a soft breeze of galbanum, tuberose stands alone
supporting herself on a bed of ambergris, Ambrette, German chamomile, and sweet
sandalwood. Citrus Floral 2004
Hedgerow The
light touch of Ambergris, Ambrette, Mate, and Green Tea holds this Citrus Floral
together. Herbal flowers of Lavender, Geranium, and Rosemary create a soft
powdery scent that softens the edges of the full citrus head notes: Petitgrain
lemon, orange & bigarade, Bergamot, and Key Lime. `Reaching
the centre of the Maze, you gather up the leaves and herbal flowers tossing them
in the air. As they twirl around, you twirl around, a young girl again. The
fountain is bubbling, the sky is blue, and you feel uplifted by the aroma of the
many fruit trees in the area. Hedgerow takes you back to simpler and more
carefree times.` Fougere/Citrus 2010
Inspiration
from the Sea You’re in
an exotic, warm location with turquoise waters and tall palm trees. You can
smell the fruit and spice trees on your own private island. The sea is lapping
at the shore and the whales and dolphins are within sight. They make you laugh,
and as you do you breathe in the deep scent of the white flowers: Jasmine sambac,
Neroli, Frangipani, and Lotus. This is a wonderful perfume for a mini-vacation
in your mind. Chypre/Spicy/Salty Floral 2010 Charmed starts with fresh and green violet leaf, galbanum,
and rosewood, this very feminine scent has a heart of tuberose, rose, and
jasmine with a creamy base of vanilla, oakmoss (steam distilled), sandalwood,
and amber accord. Chypre
Chez Noir If you love the smell of liquorice then this is the
perfume for you. Rich, deep Anise, Tarragon, and Cardamom lead the way into a
full floral heart of Rose, Jasmine, and Ylang, drying down to the warm, sensuous
tones of ambergris, patchouli, fresh-mown hay, and labdanum. Not for the faint of heart. Floral/Anise
Evening
Romance Succumb to the ripe, exotic florals
of Jasmine, Rose, and Orange flower on a bed full of Ambers and Oakmoss, with Citrus
and Pink Pepper head notes. You'll be happier if you do.
Evolution Notes
include: Vetiver, Frankincense, Ambergris, Oud, Black Current Bud, Spikenard,
Lavender absolute, Litsea, Geranium absolute, Neroli, Orange Blossom absolute,
Roman Chamomile, Hyacinth, Clary Sage, Bergamot, Galbanum More than any other I’ve made, this perfume’s evolution is very distinct. The first hit of crisp freshness created by the Clary Sage/Bergamot/Galbanum chord is soon followed by the full floral body of Orange Blossoms, Chamomile, Lavender, Geranium, Neroli, and Hyacinths. Not clingy or heavy, it feels like you’re standing in a garden in late Spring or early Summer. It is warm and the soft breeze carries the scent to you. Standing tall, sun on your face, you breathe in, smiling at the wonder of it all. In the background, you can detect the earthy smells of Vetiver, Oud, Ambergris, and Spikenard. Herbal Floral 2010
Hope of Spring Earthy, leafy, sweet, and fresh, as the trees fill out into their summer best. The earth cracks open to support the new flocks of lavender, tuberose, rosemary, and stocks. Base notes of labdanum, ambergris, oakmoss, and vanilla; head notes of bergamot, cardamom, and black pepper. Chypre/ Floral 2008
Om
Biblical
frankincense, myrrh, spikenard, earthy patchouli, and sweet sandalwood offer a
great supporting role to the heart notes of rose, champa, and tuberose. Bergamot
is the opening scent that offers up this aroma to spirit. Floral
2004
Paris Nightlife Mimosa, Linden, Orange Blossom, Ylang, Tuberose, and Mango leaf carry on the wind as you stroll the streets of Paris in your mind. Blonde Tobac, Orris, and Ambergris ground you into the experience while tangerines and peppers in a nearby shops add to the aroma of Paris at night. Earthy/Floral 2010
Afterglow
gets off to a sexy, raunchy riot with the indolic
behaviour of Jasmine, Hyraceum, and Orange Blossom. After some time, it
settles down to a warm bouquet of Frangipani, Orris, and Rose. Top notes include
Pink Pepper, Turmeric, and bright Bergamot. Floral Oriental 2007
a
la Rouge
is a
luxurious fragrance created on a bed of roses, davana, ylang, jasmine, lotus,
and honeysuckle accord. It opens with a burst of uplifting lemongrass, then on
to the full flowery heart, drying down to an earthy, woody base of Oud,
Ambrette, and sandalwood. Floral Oriental 2007
Autumn Aura speaks to us of a warm inviting space around the fireplace with our loved one's head in our lap. We are reading our books and often stop to share an interesting tidbit with one another. The skies are blue, the air has a hint of a chill, the trees are ablaze with colour. We know what is coming and are prepared to face it with this wonderful scent. Featuring notes of Peru balsam, Sandalwood vanutua, Vanilla CO2, Copaiba resin, Tuberose, Golden Champa, Kewda attar, Black Pepper, Tarragon, and Petitgrain sur fleur. Foral Oriental 2010
Entranced Featuring
the plum-raison scent of Osmanthus who is joined by Jasmine and Neroli, this
perfume opens with Cassie, bergamot, and petitgrain and softens to musky
Ambrette, sandalwood, ambergris, and amber accord. A lovely musk perfume. Read the Review: Entranced.pdf
Inspired
This
sophisticated scent has a lively citrus opening with an interesting twist in the
heart. Notes of Orange Blossom absolute, Orange

mingle in a fruity exotic fragrance. Sandalwood, Oud, Beeswax, and
Labdanum offer a deep, mellow, and honeyed supporting role to the formula.

Loverly
Named by
my friends who kept smelling this and calling it 'lovely', Loverly opens with a
bright citrus scent followed by a full floral heart of rose, jasmine, lotus, and
ylang and ending some time later with the rich balsamic labdanum, amber accord,
and blonde tobacco. Floral Oriental 2007
Tantric Notions Champa, Lavender, and Ginger hold the Heart asana; powdery soft musky notes hold the Root asana; the head notes are bright and full of the golden glow from rosewood, palma rosa, sweet orange, and black pepper. Floral Oriental 2010
Whole
Notes 'Hard
to work with!', I hear. 'Not if you know how to talk to them and coax them out
to play.', I say with a smile. Thick, gooky, chunky, and stuck to the lid and sides of
the containers,
these yummy essences of Linden Blossom, Pink Lotus, Mimosa,
Black Current Bud, Oud, Ambergris, Clary Sage absolute, and Labdanum marched in
with Bergamot in the lead, are an orchestra worth listening to. I love this
perfume. I have created five Soliflores. To see the mini labels, please open this file. Soliflores

With Rosewood, Linden Blossom, and Coriander leading the way, they sing and dance exquisitely together, all the way down to the earthy notes of Ambergris, Sandalwood, Oakmoss (steam distilled), and Patchouli. Chypre/Floral 2007 Read the Review: Wonder.pdf Coastal Rains begins as a fresh shower through Fir needles,
Mimosa flowers, and Galbanum. Soon, a light sprinkling of Genet, Linden
Blossom, Rose maroc, Jasmine g, Lavender absolute, and Orange Blossom
absolute give up their scent to the
droplets. Earthy notes of Sandalwood v, Muhuhu wood, leather accord, Hyraceum, and Ambrette,
finish the descent to puddle and leave the air smelling green, clean, and
slightly floral with a distinctive leather note.
Midnight Blue This is a yummy gourmand scent, which
dries down to a fruity grassy floral. Notes of Chocolate, Coffee, Myrrh, and Hay lay the
foundation for the Heart of fruity Davana, Jasmine sambac, Mimosa, and Rose de
mai. The Head
notes add to the menu: Sweet Orange, Lemongrass, and Pimento leaf. They’re going
to have to create Sniffers' Anonymous for this scent. Gourmand 2007
Passionate
…a seductive blend of seeds, nuts,
and fruits with heady floral Jasmine, on a thick bed of low-atranol oakmoss, sandalwood, and cedarwood. This has been said to get the juices
flowing! Fruity Floral 2007
Angel Whispers
begins with a feathered brushing of bergamot,
orange, and black pepper, which leads the way to an open powdery field of
lavender and geranium, as well as fruity notes of Davana, caraway, and
Osmanthus, Vanilla, Patchouli, and a delightful dash of chocolate. Oriental 2004 Read the Review: Angel Whispers.pdf
Euphoric was inspired by the hypnotic qualities of the botanicals used in this formula: notes of ylang, Neroli, jasmine, petitgrain, clary sage, nutmeg, and cinnamon leaf. A lovely lift from lime and tangerine create a good opening. Finally, it comes to rest on creamy vanilla, sandalwood, oud, and low atranol oakmoss. Oriental/Citrus 2007 Read the review: Euphoric.pdf
Souvenirs
de la Vie Life
is full of colour, texture, music, and aroma. These are captured in Souvenirs de
la Vie through the sweet earthy base notes of Vanilla and Patchouli, the floral
heart of Jasmine sambac and Neroli, and the spicy notes of Cinnamon Leaf and
Black Pepper. Oriental 2009
Wise
One Which scents will stay with us as we
age? Lovely smells of rosewood chopsticks, tangerines and lemons in the bowl on
the highly-polished dining room table, and palma
rosa grasses just out the door, along side fields of free growing lavender, geranium, and rose, with
the thick sweetness of Benzoin, Sandalwood, Patchouli, Cedarwood, and Amber
accord. All good memories, n’est pas? Oriental 2003

sweet and powdery, Powder ‘n Lace captures the old Victorian days of arts and
crafts, and all things homemade. Opening with cardamom and bergamot, this
