This is the second batch of Ceremonia. If you loved the first batch, wait until your nose gets a whiff of this refined evolution.

This timeless blend offers a rich, full-bodied aroma with earthy depth and resinous undertones, enveloping the senses in a meditative calm. The scent is heady and spiritual, evoking the sacred atmosphere of ancient temples, where the air is thick with the incense of aged wood and the warmth of pure resins. At its heart, the rare Fossilized Amber Oil, precious Agarwood, resins, and rhizomes transport you on a journey through time, grounding the spirit and inviting deep reflection. It's a fragrance that carries the weight of millennia, wrapping you in a quiet reverence and profound sense of connection.

**ALL SALES ARE FINAL**

Plants and resins in their natural form are tools of self-empowerment. Unadulterated pure oils are both the defense mechanism and allure of the plant- they seduce and attract: wearing oil blends creates synergy - the composition of the elements on the skin weave together to create a whole that transcends into different realms. The oils ignite the senses, rekindle memories, awaken instinct and intuition.

Scent As a Portal

Admittedly, I don’t know that much about scents. I don’t really understand why or how Hagop deems this an extension of the original Ceremonia blend, as they smell quite different to me. But no matter how it is composed, Ceremonia 2 is a rare sequel that exceeds the original. Through the alchemy of combining and curing painstakingly sourced oils and compounds, it deepens the sensory experience in a way that seems ephemeral.

The first image that popped into my head when I rolled a drop onto my wrists and rubbed them together, the slight friction heating up the compounds just enough to change them, was of an old shop in an ancient city, the kind of place that has never not had incense burning, long enough that the smell has fused with the plaster, the tiles, the curtains, the inhabitants. A little further down my arm, there was another vibration altogether, a floral smell, a fresh laundry high note. Combined, they form one of the most interesting things I’ve ever had the pleasure to wear.

Starting with the dripping red wax seal, to the ornate bottle, to the cavernous depth of the oil itself, Ceremonia 2 is a marvel, a scent of real materiality and complexity that can transport both the wearer and those in their presence to another time, when craftsmanship still mattered and simple things could be appreciated more readily.
