WHAKAORA - Taonga Perfume

From rain-soaked earth, new life stirs, emerging from the depths of the soil, coaxed by the nurturing embrace of nature. Every droplet that falls brings with it the promise of rejuvenation and growth, as the world awakens to the symphony of rebirth.

This is the breath between endings and beginnings — the sacred rhythm of restoration, where time seems to pause, allowing the universe to weave the threads of life anew. It is a moment of profound beauty, where every ending whispers the potential of a new journey, echoing in the heart of existence.

Fragrance Notes:

Kumerahou and harakeke open the scent with cleansing green vitality — the medicine of new shoots, as their essence dances in the air, offering a refreshing embrace that invigorates the senses. Their combined aromas create a tapestry of nature’s bounty, an invitation to explore the lush landscapes from which they come.

 Karetu’s soft sweetness grounds the wairua in calm, wrapping the spirit in a gentle cocoon of tranquility. This essence serves as a reminder to slow down and appreciate the serenity that surrounds us, encouraging us to be present in every moment.

Lavender soothes the hinengaro, while bright mandarin stirs the spirit awake, creating a delightful juxtaposition that ignites joy and peace. The delicate floral notes of lavender invite stillness, while the vibrant tang of mandarin sparks a sense of playfulness, making this blend a celebration of harmony.

Cassia’s gentle warmth and manuka’s mid-note heart bring the pulse of courage and healing fire, creating a powerful synergy that supports resilience. The aromatic allure of cassia envelops the senses, instilling confidence and strength, while manuka’s distinctive essence acts as a beacon of healing, guiding us through life's challenges.

Whakaora is the perfume of returning strength — a hymn of balance between body and soul. It carries the memory of wellness, of harmony restored, of mauri rekindled after the storm, echoing the resilience that lies within us. With every inhalation, we are reminded of the beauty of overcoming adversities and the sweetness that follows the rain.

Energetic Quality: Healing medicine — renewing the flow of life force, harmonising tinana and wairua, re-awakening vitality through gentle fire. This remarkable blend acts as a conduit, channeling energies that uplift and restore, inviting us to embrace the fullness of life with open arms and a renewed spirit.
