Description
The Vam Terrain Fragrance Is an olfactive hologram, reflecting the aromatic contours of three distinctive regions of Scotland, developed to enrich your interior environment.
The word vam, from the Old Scottish Dictionary, carries two primary meanings: it can refer to a spell (or hypnotic influence), or to an aroma. Fittingly, we have chosen this name for our terrain fragrance, for scent is transportative and one’s experience of it is an emotional and physiological journey to the oldest part of the brain, the root of our memories.
With the Vam Terrain Frangrance, we employ the total recall of our perfumer Mark Buxton and creative director Sruli Recht, who took a trip through Scotland: first the Highlands, then the Isle of Skye, and finally the Isle of Islay. As they travelled, they took notes, botanicals, air samples, and aromatic mnemonics. From these they crafted a scent odyssey for you to experience, a memory you may never have had. A hero’s journey for you to embark on, return from, and retell in your own words amongst hearth and home.
The room fragrance may be applied to any passive airflow diffuser such as bisque ceramic, charcoal, chalk, or reed.
The Fragrances
HIGHLANDS
The Highlands scent recalls the running water, sharp wet stone, dense vegetation of pine and moss, and late sunlight flickering through the trees at the edge of the Cairngorms National Park. It is designed as a close proximity, evoking the mystery of the forest and the unknown. It is the hero’s call to adventure.
Notes: Galbanum oil, pine needle absolute, hay absolute, cedarwood, watery accord, tonka beans, birch tar, myrrh oil, oakwood absolute.
SKY
The Skye scent takes you to a windswept but sheltered valley, high above the sea and just below the epic rock formation of Storr. It is designed as a mystical fragrance, evoking the ethereal but also the dangerous. It is the crossing of the threshold in the hero's journey.
Notes: Salt accord, green grass accord, heather, moss, amber, peat accord, birch tar, oakwood, burnt leather accord.
ISLAY
The Islay scent lies at the intersection of land, sea and sky, calling to mind the saltiness of the ocean, peaty smoke, and heather. It is designed as a wide, open space where the unstoppable force of currents collide. It is the death and rebirth of the hero.
Notes: angelique root, beeswax absolut, broom absolut, algues concrete, ice water accord, birch tar, arnica absolut, burnt incense, moss, peat accord.
