Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic – Deep Midnight Perfume Oils by Cat

By 27 Comments

I’m always thrilled to spotlight Etsy artists on Strange Daze Indeed. I recently discovered the intriguing and fascinating shop Deep Midnight Perfume Oils
which is the creation of Catrianna.

There are over 90 magical scents for both women and men
with exotic and unique blends 

 like Belladonna Kiss:

and Endris Night:

 I asked Cat what inspired her creations and here is Cat:

“In Her Own Words” :

My love of perfumes began as a child because my beautiful mother adored perfumes and scented soaps. She had a drawer full of perfumes and soaps from France and England that I loved to sniff given any opportunity. My mom also bought a lot of perfume oils, which quickly became my favorites as a teenager. I suffer from asthma, and while scents in and of themselves do not bother me, anything alcohol based and aeresol does. 

Perfume oils were the best way for me to wear scents and not have asthma issues. In 1996, I made my first blend for myself, and in 2003 I started selling a line of perfumes, soaps, and lip balms locally. Then in 2010 I opened my shop on etsy.

I work in the field of Chinese Medicine, but I also have college degrees in Anthropology, History, and Legal Studies, as well as a background in English Literature and Chemistry and these studies have contributed to my perfume inspirations and my art.

I am passionate about creating fascinating fragrances and I love sharing this grand obsession with my customers. I strive to create perfumes that are unique and deeply complex in character and others that are enchanting in their simplicity. 

When I describe my blends, I want each perfume I create to tell a scented story in miniature…. to create a dreamscape in your mind that will connect with your sense of smell and transport you to where you want to go. I am inspired by a variety of historical eras, people and characters – both real and imaginary, places of old, literature, romance, spiritual arts, and theater.

I have a great love for animals, and I have several items in my shop designated as 100% donation to the animal charities I support. Donating to these charities is something very important to me.

My perfumes are Vegan, Phthalate free, Paraben Free, Cruelty Free and blended into a base of the highest quality organic golden jojoba oil from plants grown in the USA. Jojoba oil is costlier than other carrier oils, but will have an indefinite shelf life. Other carrier oils that are nut based or grain based, while also good for your skin, will tend to become rancid after time if not used up soon enough.

I use both perfume/fragrance oils and essential oils of the highest quality in my blends. I love educating my customers as well, on what to look for in perfumes and the chemistry behind the processes. I am happy to answer any questions they may have. I love my customers and love interacting with them. I believe in and stand by top notch customer service, personalized service, and the highest quality.

Best wishes always!

 I asked Cat for some Father’s Day recommendations as the holiday is approaching:

I would recommend Jack in the Green or Druids of Awen for the earthy Dads, Dr. Naulitus, Time Machine, or Mad as a Hatter for the Steampunk Dads, and Oberon for the Dads who love classic scents. Some of these scents are unisex but tending towards the masculine edge.

OBERON

The great thing about buying scents for your guy is you get to smell them.

I will be doing a review and giveaway of Cat’s dreamy artisan scents, so please do come back soon and enter.
