Love Potion Turned Perfume: New Eros Perfume

Love Potion Turned Perfume: New Eros Perfume

I have always been in awe of the rich, complex sweet, earthy and somewhat musky notes of patchouli. Eros pays homage to this divine essential oil by capturing the warmth, sensuality and earthiness of patchouli. With a composition of only four essential oils, it is one of those blends that is so simple although its aroma is very bold and complex.

Finally, one of Perfect Potion’s most popular essential oil blends is now available as a perfume. In the beginning, I was not sure that Eros, such a simple combination of patchouli, ylang ylang, lavender and bergamot would work as a perfume…

Eros is one of the original blends, created when I started the Garden Party in 1987 which then became Perfect Potion in 1991. Eros is a scent that was at home in the very bohemian Elizabeth Arcade in the early 1990s. The Arcade was also the home to a tarot card reader; a new age book shop; Silver Rocket – a purveyor of very cool secondhand collectable toys; one of Brisbane’s first vegetarian restaurants; a second-hand book shop; a Hari Krishna restaurant; Brisbane’s first body piercer; a tattoo artist and a very cool fashion shop called Blonde Venus. Eros embodied all the Bohemian qualities of the original Elizabeth Arcade.

Back then it was called Lover’s Blend, however I decided to change the name to Eros after I had several customers say they loved the blend so much and wanted to gift it to their colleague or friend, but the name Lover’s Blend would be a problem and cause confusion. 

 

About The New Eros Perfume

I have always been in awe of the rich, complex sweet, earthy and somewhat musky notes of patchouli. Eros pays homage to this divine essential oil by capturing the warmth, sensuality and earthiness of patchouli. With a composition of only four essential oils, it is one of those blends that is so simple although its aroma is very bold and complex.

It may be tempting to suggest that there really is no structure to this perfume, in a classical sense of top, middle and base notes. One might think that bergamot was the top note, lavender and ylang ylang the middle notes and patchouli the base note. However, patchouli is the star of this perfume and it lets you know right from the beginning that ‘no one can mess with me and I am the top, middle and base note.’

That is except for ylang ylang. The contrasting floral and earthy notes complement each other, evoking a sense of intrigue and mystery. It is like they are fighting for centre stage – this makes for an intriguing blend that will appeal to all. Which is why the heart and soul of my new Eros Perfume is patchouli and ylang ylang.

It is not surprising that Eros radiates a sense of confidence, passion and grounded sensuality.

It is also no wonder that Eros has always been popular with Scorpios!
