Frondescence Perfume — Verdant Ferns, Wild geraniums, Moss, Green patchouli, Vetiver root, Meadowgrass, Wetland streams

A verdancy of fresh fern fronds, wild geraniums, damp moss, green patchouli, vetiver root, early meadowgrass, and tumbling wetland streams.

A fern beside the way we went
She plucked, and, smiling, held it up,
While from her hand the wild, sweet scent
I drank as from a cup.

O potent witchery of smell!
The dust-dry leaves to life return,
And she who plucked them owns the spell
And lifts her ghostly fern.

— John Greenleaf Whittier

Art: At the Waterfall by Henri Rousseau, 1910
