"Two is the imperfect condition into which being falls when it becomes detached from the Monad of God. Spiritual beings emanating from God are enveloped in the Duad and therefore receive only illusory impressions."  Pythagoras 
 
 "Duality is polarity, or the alternating cycles of rhythm and harmony which is all good.  On the lower levels we lose sight of this high truth and in this loss know only the alternation of extremes: namely light and dark, heat and cold, life and death, youth and age, disease and health, poverty and wealth, sorrow and joy, war and peace, friends and enemies."  Heline

High Perfumery offers a resolution of these stark dualities. Oud: the ultimate sacrament of magical aromatherapy.  It invokes a wakeful trance state and the attributes of temperance, art, androgyny, devotion and the union of opposites.  Normally this synthesis is possible only during sleep or trance, however oud opens gateways in the mind so that the process can occur consciously.

The octet of oud based perfumes Matriarch has created for the ACHTUNG brand are so exceptional that one of the perfumes (SEXMAGIC) was just announced as a winner of several medals at the International Artisan Fragrance Competition, earning Matriarch's nose Christi Meshell the title "Top Artisan Perfumer."

 

 

Please join us as we celebrate this new brand and toast the artists who have inspired and collaborated to create this luxury collection.
