Skadi is an iced aquatic. She is a giantess and the ancient Norse goddess of winter and skiing. An icy opening of Arcana's hand-extracted peppermint unfolds into a blanket of snow, salt crystals, soft cashmere, water from melting icicles, white musks, ivory velvet, pale oakmoss and crisp air. Skadi is a limited edition eau de parfum, edp.
Arcana Wildcraft perfumes are indie, small batch handmade.
Reddit: "I was interested in this one because, like their silk, I absolutely adore Arcana's cashmere note. "A blanket of snow," "melting icicles," "ivory velvet," and "crisp air" are clearly fantasy descriptions of accords, but I've had really good luck with their soft white notes before, so I was all in to try this one. And as it turns out: if you added peppermint - a bracing, winter-air peppermint, not a sugary, candy-cane peppermint - to Moth-Like Stars, you'd get something very much like this, with its airy white amber, slightly salty ambroxan, and gorgeous, snuggly cashmere. There's also a white patchouli note that Moth-Like Stars doesn't have, clean and white-peppery, like that in Eir. This is the snowy winter wonderland version of Moth-Like Stars, and an absolute success for me. I'm going to wear the heck out of this every January and February."
Arcana Wildcraft: "So refreshing!!! Cool and aquatic with a hint of salt that feels beachy and breezy. This is my summer scent. Highly recommend!!!"
