New Additions to the General Catalog!

We've added four new perfumes to the Mythos collection inspired by fearsome and seasonally appropriate deities. Anubis, Maman Brigitte and Set bring with them their celebration of death in this season of darkness while the sun is in the deep and passionate sign of Scorpio. In the broader autumnal season, we celebrate all sorts of ancestral and death honoring festivals: Halloween, Samhain, Los Dias de los Muertos, Hop Tu Naa, Calan Gaeaf, Allantide, All Hallows Eve, All Saints, Festival of the Dead, Ghost Festival... you get the point! Durga, while not a death goddess per se (that title belongs to Kali, an aspect of Durga herself) brings the celebration of her festival, Navratri, for a week during the month of September.

There isn't a more perfect time than now to add these to the collection! Try them today to attune to the energy of the darkening days and lengthening nights, to pay homage to your dearly departed loved ones or to simply enshroud yourself in the deadly aroma of these dire deities!
_________________________

ANUBIS
Jackal-headed Egyptian lord of embalming, mummification and protector of the dead. He watches over the funerary process making sure the bodies are properly readied for their journey to the afterlife. His color is black, associating him with the putrefaction stage of death as well as the promise of rebirth found in the fertile black soils on the banks of the river Nile.

A perfume inspired by the beauty that Anubis saw in death: Red musk, Egyptian patchouli accord, tonka bean absolute, aged vanilla resin and a drop of embalming honey.

DURGA
As a fierce protector and an indestructible force of nature, Durga's ability to help her devotees overcome selfishness, jealousy, prejudice, hatred, anger, and ego has made her one of the most beloved of all Hindu devas. She rides into battle on her tiger, a symbol of her vast and limitless power with a peaceful smile on her face, as even during the most violent confrontations, she does not lose her composure, compassion or her ability to laugh at a good joke.

Sacred, powerful and commanding, yet brightly festive: Daring Indian patchouli wrapped in graceful bergamot blossom and enlivened with tonka bean.

MAMAN BRIGITTE
Scottish and Irish indentured servants brought along with them to Haiti their beloved goddess and later Saint Brigid, the red haired, green eyed, fair skinned deity. She most certainly has her place among the pantheon of beloved Haitian Lwa as queen of the Ghede, a Haitian Creole word for a family of sprits that represent the dead as well as fertility - sex and death are never far apart! She is the Mistress of the Dead, owner of the cemetery and is, in true ghede fashion, as sexually suggestive, rude, obscene and debaucherous as her husband, Baron Samedi.

Maman's Ofrendas: Tobacco, peppered rum, spicy clove, piquant cinnamon and graveyard dirt.

SET
Egyptian lord of darkness, chaos, storms, the harsh desert and foreigners. He ruled the red desert in Upper Egypt while Horus was given the fertile Nile delta, the black lands of Lower Egypt. The two gods were always at odds with one another. Multiple myths detail the feud between the two, a conflict that is completely understandable: Set murdered then dismembered Horus' father Osiris as Set always had eyes for his sister and Horus' mother, the beautiful Isis and stopped at nothing to have her. Some historians claim that the vilification of Set was politically motivated, some say it was symbolic of the war that people living in the desert waged to survive within the environment daily: Set represented the sterile, harsh desert while Horus was the fertile lands that were flooded by the Nile. Nonetheless, Set is a darkly complicated figure who is often called upon for sex and love magic as he understands the how far down the maddening depths of love and desire can go when they remain unrequited.

Egyptian red amber, black patchouli, vanilla bean hull, sycamore, black musk, beeswax and vetiver.

New Additions for Spring at Conjure Oils!

Hello Everyone!

It's becoming lovely out here in Oregon as we move closer to the Vernal Equinox. Just today it was sunny and a little over 60 degrees. Daffodils, hyacinth, crocus, magnolias, azalea and forsythia are all in gorgeous bloom.

New Additions to Conjure Oils!


The Oddment Emporium

Soaps and solid perfumes are here! Please welcome the Oddment Emporium where you can indulge your senses with a rotating selection of old-fashioned, all-natural, cruelty-free bath and beauty compounds that are meticulously handmade in small batches and generously scented with Conjure Oils' own proprietary fragrance formulas!

The current fragrance selections are Anemoi, Baron Samedi, Black Heart of Innocence and Whore of Babylon. The scent selections will change every month.

Shipping for the Oddment Emporium is different than the rest of the site. When you order anything from the OE, your order will need to be shipped in a $5 flat-rate Priority mail box. In order for this to happen, there is a add to cart button on the OE page where you can add the extra $2.25 required. Feel free to add anything else from the rest of the Conjure Oils site to your Oddment Emporium order! Remember - if your order totals $50 or over you don't need to add the extra shipping charge as shipping is free.

International OE orders will still be shipped first class with the extra shipping charge going toward the increased cost of shipping.

You can also add the $2.25 to your oils-only order if you'd like to upgrade your shipping to Priority. Please note that upgrading your shipping only alters the shipping time your package takes once it leaves Conjure Oils - it has no effect on the turn around time. If you don't order anything from the OE, then your under $50 shipping charge is still $2.75.

Search Engine

We have a search engine (finally)! It's on the main page of the Conjure Oils site. It's not the most sophisticated search engine ever, but it will do. For now.

New Scents Added to the General Catalog

To the Mythos collection:

Vajrayogini - Indestructible Diamond

Vajrayogini is the supreme deity in the Highest Yoga Tantra of Tibetan Buddhism. She transforms the mundane into the magickal and defeats death, using it as a tool toward enlightenment.

Tibetan black musk, dhoop, molten red amber and spiced Eastern white sandalwood.

To Miss Victoria's Atypical Teahouse:

Tempus Fugit Torte

Time flies. Particularly when the dessert you're devouring is magnificent!

A solemn party celebrating the inevitable we all must face. Vanilla cake, butter cream frosting, melting ice cream and funeral incense.


To the Apothecary collection:

Lightning & Rain,
Champagne Bubbles,
Coconut Milk
and
Champa Bouquet


A special thanks to all the folks in the Facebook Conjure Oils' fan page who gave their valuable input and suggestions! I hope these changes and additions are pleasing to you.

All the best,

Vajra

New Fragrance! Inanna, Queen of Heaven


As the longest night of Winter comes upon us, let the mighty Goddess Inanna serve as a healing reminder of the darkness that we must pass through on our way to the Light.

Please help me in celebrating the newest addition to the Conjure Oils Mythos Line:


Inanna - Sumerian Goddess of Sex, War and Fertility
descend into the underworld! Middle eastern blood red pomegranates, juicy crimson currants, night-blooming cereus, alyssum, nicotania flowers and swirling plumes of incense adorn the altar of Inanna
(Taken from the Conjure Oils website)

A dark and juicy, yet dry and fruity floral transforms to a sultry soft incense caressed by pomegranates as it seductively dries on the skin.

A free sample will be included with every order placed from Solstice to the end of January!

Solstice Blessings to You,


Vajra
