Confident, Powerful, Grounded

In Norse mythology, the mighty Valkyries would pick the greatest warriors who had fallen in battle and bring them to the great hall where they would prepare for the final battle between good and evil. This scent smells like steel and wood, soil and leather, and sends a signal that you are ready for whatever is to come.

Anchored by the rich woody scents of Frankincense and Katrafay, and the protective, cleansing presence of White Sage, Valhalla paves the way to your inborn sense of stability and surety; your portal to the grounded confidence of the warrior spirit within.

5ml // bottled in UV-protected Miron glass

Frankincense, Katrafay, Violet Leaf, White Sage

When you crave a bolster of confidence, diffuse this blend in your space as you repeat supportive affirmations: I see things clearly and objectively. I am confident; rooted in my values, steady in my truth. When I find myself thinking: "I don't know," I get still and quiet until I do know.

While on the go, add a drop behind each ear before a difficult conversation or a big moment that invites the bravest parts of you forward.

Major notes

Our White Sage essential oil is produced in small batches every 1-3 years by a local who wild harvests the plant from the mountains in Central Coast, California, and distills the white sage in small quantities. The last white sage harvest and distillation was undertaken in 2020, as the white sage plants are still optimizing their growth for another foraging.

Our wildcrafter, distiller, and friend tends to the wild plants in the environment, supporting the earth with his harvesting by collecting when the plants are abundant (and can benefit from thinning) to help clear space for new vegetation and allow for a continued thriving ecosystem.

Katrafay is a beautiful indigenous plant from the Madagascar region, known for its strength and toughness and traditionally used to make the royal Sakalava tombs.  Our supplier for Katrafay is a small local producer of regeneratively harvested indigenous plants; the potent pure Katrafay oil used in our blends is made from this wild Katrafay plant material that has been lovingly steam distilled.

"What was said to the rose that made it open was said to me here in my chest." -- Rumi

Our organic Rose Otto nectar comes from a genius inventor and alchemist who has developed a unique method for refining a beautifully pure distillation of organic Rose flowers known for their beautiful red color and their depth of rich aromatic quality. 

Typically when one finds an authentic Rose distillation (known as Rose Otto), a sign of purity is the crystalization, which is solid-phase at lower room temperatures. Our Iranian distiller, working with the highest quality organic petals, has been able to purify out some of the denser constituents found in Rose Otto which crystalize at lower temperatures using a toolkit of natural alchemical processes.  The result is a potent and 100% pure organic Rose oil, which is aromatically more fragrant compared to traditional Rose distillation, and is naturally found liquid at room temperature. 

Treasured throughout history, Frankincense has long created a line of communication between East and West.

Our American distiller specializes in a high-grade selection of Frankincense resins; Boswellia Sacra from Oman is often referred to as the finest quality Frankincense on the planet.  The wildcrafted Frankincense is selected and personally imported from a sustainable collective in Oman to produce this pure and potent oil.

This Frankincense oil is produced in small batches and typically takes several months to produce enough precious Frankincense Sacra oil to craft and create with. What we've learned is that the Oman Frankincense Sacra oil typically benefits from a short maturation process of about 30-90 days for its high-note character. This Frankincense Sacra oil is uplifting, vitalizing, cleansing and mood enhancing, with several aromatic layers to inspire the senses.

    Excellent Natural Cologne

    This blend has a woody base with with pops of sage that are very noticeable but not overwhelming- a truly unique combination of all natural ingredients that I've been enjoying using instead of conventional colognes as my girlfriend is very sensitive to artificial fragrances

    Best cologne everrrr

    WoW! What an amazing scentsation! I gifted this to my husband, without anticipating how much he would love it. He's not really a cologne wearer so I thought this would be a bottle that would go mostly unused. To my surprise he puts this on every time we go out, and I have used this myself as well. Such an enjoyable grounding meditative connection to nature!

    So refreshing

    The smell is so refreshing. It makes me feel reborn but it is grounding too. You can smell the quality of the ingredients. I am in love with sage in general and this cologne is so mesmerizing.
