Anael gave the D’ Angelines the gift of animal husbandry and taught them how to care for the land. It is said that an oak tree that he planted still grows in the heart of the city of Elua. The Somervilles are his scions and they carry a scent of apples when excited. For Anael’s blend, I wanted to work in the idea of his gifts to Terre d’ Ange.

His blend is cool dark earth, oak, tender green leaves, tree moss, juniper berries, ivy, herbs and of course, a drop of green apple accord. This fragrance is evocative of a walk in a cool, dark forest.
