Auric Blends – Perfume as Art

May 6, 2012 By Debra Pearlstein 24 Comments

I received some intoxicating scents to review from Auric Blends.  Their perfumes and incense are handcrafted and made with high quality ingredients from around the world.

Auric Blends is located in the small, historic town of Graton in Northern California, surrounded by vineyards, redwood trees and the cool coastal air that comes in from neighboring Bodega Bay. It’s a beautiful place that inspires their creations.
They carry perfume oils, perfume solids, incense, soap, candles and henna kits as well.

Smell is a vital sense that enhances our experience. It can warn us of danger or soothe our spirit; it can energize or uplift. Auric Blends look upon perfumery as an art form.

The oils I received were Egyptian Goddess, their #1 bestseller, Love, their #2 seller, Ocean Song and Coco Mango.

I also received Temple Essence Star Jasmine solid perfume and Nag Champa incense sticks.

 The jasmine came in a beautiful round orb and was a very rich floral scent with a hint of sandalwood:

The Nag Champa is the top selling imported incense in the US. It’s hand rolled and made with herbs, resins and other natural materials. It is my favorite incense and brought back fond memories of ashrams I’d visited around the world.

The Egyptian Goddess is a roll-on perfume oil and has a light floral musk and soft powder scent. It’s warm, seductive and a bit exotic.

The Love roll-on perfume oil is similar to the Egyptian Goddess but a bit sweeter with touches of white amber, white musk and woods.

The Ocean Song I found to be very interesting. It has a white woodsy musk base and top notes of white lavender, Italian lemon and French Riviera mimosa. I liked it very much.

A pleasant surprise for me was the Coco Mango. It definitely was more fruity and light – a tropical blend of coconut and mango.

I would wear the Egyptian Goddess and Love when going out at night and the Ocean Song and Coco Mango more during the day, however they really can be worn anytime.

Auric Blends has over 40 fragrances available and prices range from $7.50-$29.99.

The collection includes warm exotics, spicy woods, sweet fruits, florals,
fresh greens and citrus.

Something for everyone.

    Oils are real popular now. These scents sound so good. It would be hard to choose just one. The white musk is something I would like as I always bought musk oils.
    I like the design of the Orb that you have shown also. Such enticing smells : )
