Fray Ardens — Anima
Eau de Parfum
If the desert spoke in high notes; tilted toward spicy, spiked with blossoms. Formulated for the high-desert-bound umbraphile. Deeply rooted with finger tips in the mountain air. Sweet nuance, smokey undertones, sharp herb.
“Anima is grassy lashes bound around an assertive neroli. The astringent, medicinal dimension produced by that combination is drawn down into leafy, bushy patchouli. Deep inhalation or intimate range uncovers a damp clay earthiness that gathers into pronunciation as the citrus rind opening disperses. The spiciness in Anima builds gradually into a poultice that sits with hydroelectric energy against skin. Patchouli’s particular bestial cocoa qualities give rise, and Anima becomes an herb-infused chocolate orange— elemental in its prowess. Spread under its influence a body becomes a landscape hunted by herbivores with gleaming, starry eyes: zesty, then pithy, then a hole dug deeper, grazed upon by flared nostrils and inquisitive appetites.”
— Matt Morris, Fragrantica
Anima is from Fray Ardens’ signature Mythopoesis/As Above line which also includes Nouveau Ranch and Frau.
