Limited edition! Seasonal ritual offering!
The Cailleach - an ancient & powerful goddess of Celtic reknown; she is deeply associated with the land itself, the creatrix of wild & rocky places. She is the Winter Crone; the harbinger of the dark, the cold, and the invitation to rest and embrace the rhythm of the seasons.
To connect with the Cailleach is to honor the Earth's raw power, to celebrate the resilience of the human spirit, and to trust in the wisdom of the balance between light and dark. Let yourself winter.
"I know this woman — she is as ancient as time and held within her silence is the knowledge of countless ages and generations; of countless lives and deaths. She is the keeper of ancestral memories.
I know this woman — Cailleach, Grandmother of stone, of mountain, cliff and cave, and rocky, windswept crag; she is my bedrock of strength and endurance.
Ancient Bone Mother, she is the frame upon which our lives take shape.
Rugged and timeless, her wildness inspires journeys into the remote and lonely places of our souls, for it is here that we find her, her face bright in the moonless night, her profound winter stillness our sacred song of dark wisdom.
She is the starry heavens and the depths of space, the place where life returns after death, the place where all potential dwells.
Spinner and weaver, she works the threads of life into complex patterns of beauty and wonder; she sings over our bones and remakes us anew; keen as beak and talon, beautiful as the arching sky that carries her feathered spirit, she is the Ancient Crone of all knowing and in the depths of winter she calls to us."

Cailleach Ritual Perfume Oil Roller
Perfume oil rollers do not contain any alcohol and thus won't have the staying power of a true parfum. However, here's a few tips to get the most out of each application:
- Apply your perfume oil to moisturized skin. Aroma molecules evaporate far more slowly on well hydrated skin. Dry skin will quickly dissipate fragrance as well as those lighter and brighter top notes and floral heart notes.
- Apply after bathing/showering when possible, when pores are open for maximum absorption.
- Try layering your scented products for a longer aromatic experience. Select scents that complement and/or have similar note profiles. A scented lotion or body oil will moisturize AND maximize scent retention.
- Apply to pulse points but do NOT rub in (rubbing will make the top notes burn off more quickly!). If you apply more than you wanted, simply tap your wrists together or dab on another pulse point. Warmth exuded from these points will project scent the longest. Best pulse points: wrists, neck/behind ears, collar bones, heart space, inner elbows (a great spot for long-lasting diffusion!), and behind knees.
- However, there are certain spots that experts DO NOT recommend applying any perfume to, inlcuding eyes, face, privates, scalp, and any irritated, damaged skin (including cuts, scrapes, etc).
- Remember that citrus and floral notes are the most fleeting so a floral-forward scent will dissipate much more quickly than a woodsy or gourmand blend. Thus you may have to reapply these lighter blends a few times throughout the day.
- Also remember that you will get used to your signature scent and won't notice it as much as those surrounding you. So don't be too quick to overapply!
- Keep in mind that if you've been to the gym and worked up a sweat, you'll need to reapply post-shower.
- Store your perfume roller in a cool, dark place for longest shelf life. Do not allow your roller bottle to be exposed to direct sun, excessive heat, high humidity (ahem, like the bathroom), or anywhere that it will be exposed to drastic temperature changes.
