Zodiac Perfumes
ZODIAC PERFUMES by Tarotista - a line of esoteric fragrances just for you.
The Tarotista Zodiac Perfume line is steeped in magical tradition dating back to at least the 15th century, when the occult master Heinrich Cornelius Agrippa set out to document the correspondences between astrology and perfume: galbanum with Libra, sandalwood with Virgo, and so on. All Tarotista perfumes are esoterically informed, zodiacally appropriate, and elementally influenced (not to mention tarot-friendly!). They are composed of primarily natural ingredients. All Tarotista perfumes are unisex in concept.
Each elegant glass bottle has a spray pump and black cap and holds 15ml (1/2 oz) of fragrance.
THE ZODIAC SET ($75.) contains sample sizes of all 12 perfumes, in 4ml capped glass vials, in a custom box with brass fittings. {Also included: a set of 12 adhesive glyph labels you can apply to the caps if you wish).
--The Fire perfumes (Aries, Leo, Sagittarius) feature wood, spices, and citrus.
--The Water perfumes (Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces) are floral or fruity, flowing, and profound.
--The Air perfumes (Libra, Aquarius, Gemini) are ferny, penetrating, and light.
--The Earth perfumes (Capricorn, Taurus, Virgo) are leathery, rooty/woody, and warmly grounded.

==============================================
Aries: SPARK OF LIGHT
Bright morning dawns in spice-scented woods and wide-awake Aries is there to greet it! Sharp with peppery observations, our favorite charming hothead embraces the day with open arms. Where there's smoke, there's fire - the heat of basil and sunny light of coriander warms this fragrance from the inside out, a beacon of hope for a day full of daring. Tobacco, ginger, orange, nutmeg.
Taurus: ROSES & STONES
Taurus rests on a carved stone bench in a garden full of old roses. Released by the slightest touch, their captivating scent drifts through the cool air. Deep green moss grows in the cracks of the flagstones. Only those who pass the Keeper of the Keys stay here, and the graceful gaze of Venus watches over them. Musk, amber, rose, raspberry.
Gemini: THE RESTLESS WIND
Mercurial Gemini turns on a dime like a late spring breeze. Lavender and hyacinth tremble amongst the cut grass as you pass - quick as twin thoughts, green and fresh and clean. Chance encounters and entrancing strangers wait around the corner. Anything could happen! Galbanum, lavender, birch.
Cancer: THE MOON DREAM
Beneath the moonlight Cancer dreams in silvery vanilla, a vision of berry-filled pastries and filigreed spoons stirring fresh cream. White flowers lie strewn across the heavy linens; outside the window the moon's reflection faintly ripples in a pool as the weight of dreams passes over its surface. No one passes through the realms as effortlessly. Vanilla, fruit, jasmine, cardamom.
Leo: HEART OF GOLD
When you pierce the skin of an orange with your fingernail, radiant citrus roars to life. 'Heart of Gold' starts out with an explosion of citrus and brilliant cedarwood, and unfolds through a warm and blushing floral heart. It concludes like the lion at rest - quiet, alert, and regal on a couch of sandalwood and frankincense. Frankincense, amber, grapefruit, cedar.
Virgo: THE HIDDEN JEWEL
Behind a quiet expression, Virgo's mind is racing. Virgo notices everything - the sweet and subtle shades of quiet flowers; the knowing ascetic that is geranium. But the layers of librarian wit part like night-blooming gardenia to reveal a warm deep heart of vetiver and sandalwood - worth taking the time to know, if you are patient. Sandalwood, gardenia, geranium, bitter orange.
Libra: BREATH OF VENUS
They say Cyprus is sacred to Venus, and from the isle of the goddess the chypre perfume takes its name. Moss and patchouli for gracious depths, rock roses in the heart, bergamot for light and clarity; the mists of these fragrant byways hold a leisurely beauty in the balance. Oakmoss, patchouli, rose, bergamot.
Scorpio: SMOKE & STORM
Scorpio! who truly knows your secrets? You are smoke and sweetness, vanilla and tobacco. You are a fascinating, acquired taste, welcome and warning wrapped up together. You are hypnotic jasmine glowing in an evergreen forest, a fallen angel reborn in a stinging thundercloud of passion. Tobacco, jasmine, fir, blood orange.
Sagittarius: THE ARROW BRIGHT
Sagittarius rides fast in leather and starlight; the scent of trampled herbs and dark sweet oud wood hurtles through the clear night. On your path lie queens and carpenters, robbers and saints, fools and sages. Go far, traveler and may your adventures taste of spice and roses! Oud wood, leather, sage, bergamot.
Capricorn: CLEVER BEAST
Shrewd Capricorn knows a thing or two about luxury. In a chest of precious rosewood lie spiced suede and silk from far-off lands, traded with cunning in the games of strategy that come so naturally to you. Yours is a devilish style, a thoughtful power, a subtle discipline! Leather, nutmeg, geranium, cedar.
Aquarius: STREAMS OF STARS
A world of ferns and shadows lies beneath the starlight, awake when others sleep. Cool moss and sweet dry sandalwood, austere geranium and clean lavender, yours is a silvery mystery pouring endlessly past a fragrant, airy riverbank. Sandalwood, oakmoss, geranium, lavender.
Pisces: THE MYSTIC SEA
The sea is changeful, fresh and full of mystery. If you inhale deeply, you can catch the scent of rocks and seaweed amongst the fresh flowers. The sweet wild spray catches your hair as blue melts into green and back again; elusive silver fish flash beneath the surface - just there! and gone again. Seaweed, ylang ylang, rosewood, grapefruit.
