Altair™
Paying a price of loneliness, Altair, the Weaver, pines for her beloved Vega throughout the year. So passionate were they that they neglected their work, leading their employer to separate them with an impassable river. One day of the year... the Seventh Day of the Seventh Month... they could be with each other.
An intricate composition of floral and herbal notes, Altair opens with sparkling top notes of Citron, Bergamot and spicy Black Pepper. Sweet classic florals... Ylang Ylang with Clove Bud and Rose Crystals provide a classic floral and spicy Carnation accord at it's heart. The fragrance is supported and balanced nicely with base notes of Brazillian Guaicwood, Nutmeg and Tunisian Amber.
Packaged in HDPE containers.
