Ostara - A Blend of Heather, Rosemary, and Black Pepper

Ostara Collection - The Perfect Gift for Ostara

After long months of cold, Spring bursts into bloom. We capture Ostara, the ancient German holiday celebrating the Spring Equinox, with a cleansing blend of floral and herbaceous notes. The subtle blossom of heather is blended with the herbal zest of rosemary and the spice of the black pepper flower. The perfect gift for Ostara, this fragrance is meant for cleansing, a vital element of Spring.

Notes

  • Heather - One of the first flowers of Spring, its abundant, delicate flowers sustain early pollinators
  • Rosemary - Revered for thousands of years for its healing properties, this aromatic herb is famously cleansing and refreshing
  • Black Pepper - A symbol of prosperity, the spicy floral aroma of the black pepper flower was once associated with wealth and royalty

What is Ostara?

Named for the Germanic goddess Eostre, Ostara is the source of the name of the familiar modern holiday known as Easter. It falls on the Spring Equinox, close to the end of March, when the sun has passed the midpoint to the highest it will rise in sky for the year, bringing just enough warmth and light to start the growing season. As the ground warms, plants like heather begin to spread and bloom, and of course, wild animals like rabbits begin their yearly courtship ritual.
