✨The Alkemia Perfume Salière

Folding Fortune Teller✨

We invite you to download our Perfume Salière and let it bring a little delight into your process for choosing your perfume for the day.

The origami Salière (Salt Cellar) is also known as a Folding Fortune Teller, Cocotte en Papier, Cootie Catcher, or Chatterbox. The unique 18th century design may have been derived from the way 17th century central European baptismal certificates were folded. Salières were once used as decorative ways to hold pinches of salt, pepper, and precious spices at the table, by the 19th century they were a popular form of entertainment and play.

Will the oracle lead you to a beloved old favorite, a scent you’ve been meaning to try, or an unexpected olfactory adventure? Let fate guide your choice!
