When you think of a cold winter's night you think of cold air, the scent of evergreen and a waft of someone's fireplace or wood stove. If you are lucky enough to be around a Christmas market and can experience the smell of roasted chestnuts, candy, spices, winter fruits and hot chocolate, those festive scents just add to the ambiance. And when it's night time the smell of creamy coffee, roasted peanuts, pine nuts and pumpkin seeds are just perfect to freeze all the moments in memory. In places where it snows, winters are often described as white and frosty and to make the picture more vivid is the smell of trees covered with snow and of wet wood, soft and green accords wafting from the leaves. The outdoors are covered in snow and all things are frozen solid.
You will receive a 1/2ml sample (1ml sample vial filled half full) of each of the fragrances in this sampler.
- Andromeda's Curse Winter Solstice Perfume Oil - An evergreen forest covered in sparkling snow mingled with the scent of good things being made in a toasty warm kitchen. A spicy, woody fragrance with notes of evergreen fir trees, pine trees, orange peel zest, apple, cinnamon and clove.
- Demeter Frozen Pond Cologne - This captures that winter's day when you first went down to the local pond hoping it froze overnight so you could skate. Dazzling and transparent, this is a lovely year-round scent evoking the quiet chill of a winter morning just before dawn. With notes of water, earth and cold.

- Solstice Scents Winter Dove Perfume Oil - Winter Dove is a gourmand floral blend featuring vanilla crystals, fresh nutmeg and sweet cream sprinkled with spicy pink carnation petals. The scent is sweet, spicy, creamy and feminine. Vanilla, cream and nutmeg combine to give an impression of egg nog. It starts out with a blast of nutmeg and a clove-like spice from the carnation flowers, all of which is wrapped in a boozy vanilla bean blanket. The spices and vanilla liqueur note tame after a short time and the blend softens into a lovely creamy vanilla fragrance with traces of pink carnation and a hint of the nutmeg. With notes of vanilla crystals, spicy carnation, nutmeg and cream.
- Une Nuit Nomade Nothing But Sea and Sky EDP - In his celebrated poetry collection 'Leaves of Grass', Walt Whitman wrote 'From Montauk Point', where his contemplation led him to quote: 'Nothing, but sea and sky'. At Montauk Point, also called The End, the world stops during winter. The sky is veiled in pale white and the breath of a blizzard sprinkles the beach with snowflakes. The rough sea gives the impression of a large cotton field in bloom. Nothing but Sea and Sky is a tribute to Montauk under its coat of snow. It is a reassuring fragrance, a stole of white musks infused in sandalwood with milky notes. With notes of bergamot, sandalwood and white musks.
