Ancient Magnolia

Rodney Hughes PROVENANCE: Ethereal Eden NOTES: Grapefruit, Sweet Herbs, Mint, Galbanum, Grey Pine, Magnolia, Orris, Papyrus, Mysore Sandalwood, Incense   Ethereal Eden transcends time. The most primordial of flowers, magnolia, blended with grey pine, sweet herbs, and incense - its larger-than-life essence - looms on the edge of this life and the next, drifting in a realm of shadows.“Magnolia grandiflorum is as ancient as time itself, it has witnessed the earth infold on itself and regenerate life for hundreds of thousands of years, and it still gives us pleasure today. What would a post-apocalyptic bloom from Magnolia tree dating back to Eden smell like on a far awayspace station? My desire is that Ethereal Eden transports the wearer to a sacred place.”—RODNEY HUGHES
