THE MYSTICAL DESIGN PROCESS
​
The Laila Ntim creative process begins with an intuitive journey into the soul, whilst guided by the ancient wisdom of Tarot, Astrology & Numerology Readings. Laila Ntim consultations generally begin with a tarot reading, a ritual that reveals the emotional, psychological and spiritual energy of the client's inner world. Tarot serves as a compass, translating archetypes and life path phases into an olfactory story.
​
The alchemy begins once the querent's spiritual essence is translated into a fragrance profile... where scent becomes a portal for presence, inner transformation and embodiment. Each tarot card corresponds to specific ingredient accords, to cohesively embrace the universal elements...
Earth to Ground (woody/resin notes)
Air to Uplift (floral/citrusy notes)
Fire to Ignite (spicy/sensual notes)
Water to Calm (herbal/marine notes)
... with Spirit (intention/manifestation) as the scent's driving force.
​
Blending is an intuitive yet disciplined chemist process, where Laila works in layers, allowing top, heart and base notes to mirror the narrative revealed by the tarot cards.​ The bespoke potion's layered notes are an activated embodiment of the soul's journey.
