The market's are in full swing, or is that wind?

Despite the weather we are weighted down, going strong, wind is kinda helping blow our scents across the place so a few customers have said! There are lots of gorgeous markets today so if you don't mind the beach hair look come on down!

These markets will blow you away...

Been a bit quiet lately but happy to report it looks like things will be picking up once again shortly. No that's not a messy floor, that's the remnants of exciting stuff happening at Gemstonia HQ!

Dare I say that I am super excited for what the next few weeks shall bring!

What's your favourite smell in the entire world?

My favourite time of year is after those stinking hot days where you get that first rainfall, not just a sprinkle but the kind of summer shower that wets the earth and starts soaking in deeper.

There's nothing too grand about that time of year except for the smell that lingers even after the rain has stopped. I LIVE for that smell every year, it's like fresh cut grass on a long, hot summers day, mixed with fresh crisp rain and those deeper warm earthy notes being cooled.

After we just had that rainfall I wanted that smell to stay, so I started playing with scents.

I think... I think I have bottled as close to that as I can possibly get, and I'm happy with that, got to save some of nature's wonders to look forward to each year after all.

For now though, I get to spritz this around my office, bedroom, house (and even the significant other when he farts) to enjoy the scent of fresh summer rainfall just a little longer..
