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 querant's inner world. Tarot serves as a compass, translating archetypes and life path phases into an olfactory story.
The creative process entails...
1) SPIRITUAL POTION MOODBOARD
... where Laila conceptualises the aura of the client's bespoke perfume, based on their tarot, astrology & numerology reading
2) ARTISAN PARFUM COMPOSITION
... where Laila formulates the client's bespoke parfum blend (which consists of +/- 40 aromatherapeutic ingredients per potion)
3) POTION BLENDING + BARREL-AGEING
... where Laila blends the client's perfume base, heart & top notes... followed by a barrel-ageing process to enable the aromatic molecules to fully merge (similarly to fine-wine)...
Parfum's ageing process takes anywhere from a few weeks to a few months depending on the tailored ingredient composition, to guarantee superior scent projection and longevity
4) HANDCRAFTED JEWEL AESTHETICS
... where Laila designs the client's perfume bottle & potion box with jewel decor (tailored with favourite colour or birth stone specifications)
5) POTION DELIVERY
... where Laila hand-delivers or ships orders to any worldwide location
The perfume potion's layered notes are an activated embodiment of the soul's journey.
ARTISAN PERFUME ALCHEMY
Laila Ntim specialises in the curation of oil-based elixirs that heal the skin on a cellular level, whilst igniting the soul on a metaphysical level. She sources & hand-selects her precious natural ingredients from dozens of sustainable suppliers worldwide, whilst using ancient blending methods that guarantee multifaceted scent projection & longevity.
The perfume 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 spread 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 perfume is an intuitive yet disciplined process of chemistry, where Laila works in layers, allowing top, heart and base notes to mirror the narrative revealed by the tarot cards.
These cosmic perfumes operate as an olfactory key to unlock inner states of enlightenment.
