Saturnalia

Deep Midnight General Catalog Perfume Oil (Available)

Saturnalia was an ancient Roman Festival that took place between
December 17th and December 23rd, around the time of the winter solstice. Catullus describes it as "the most joyous of festivals and the best of days during which normal business and many prohibitions were suspended, servants waited on masters, paper robes and masks were worn, gifts were exchanged, and there was a period of general relaxation and festivity."

This scent evokes the feeling of ancient ritual and festivity with an earthy mix of Arabian sandalwood, Sudanese frankincense, and patchouli blended with the aromas of roasted chestnuts, almonds, and hazlenuts, and finished with cranberries and sweet cake.
