Sand dunes have a subtle way of evoking strong emotional responses. Beachlovers know them well and appreciate all that they provide. The wind whispering through the dune grass and tinkling sea oats, the rhythmic ripples and waves of layers of sculpted sand like scales on the spine of a giant dragon; gentle golden rolling hills, rising and falling like the breath of the earth.
Any beachgoer in NC is familiar with the dunes lining the beaches of the Outer Banks. Those dunes are crucial to the continued existence of the OBX's thin strip of land, acting as a buffer from storm surge and as native plant and animal habitats, from sea oats to sea turtles. But have you visited any large dunes? Jockey's Ridge State Park in Nag's Head, NC is the East Coast's tallest living sand dune system. And let me tell you, it is absolutely epic! It's like visiting another planet. This vast and ever-shifting terrain contains an indescribable beauty and breathtaking views of the coast.
Our Dune perfume roller's minimalist aesthetic brings the pure beauty of the beach to you, wherever you happen to be! Our clear glass rollers with bamboo tops are adorned with a single tiny seashell and a grass frond. Stunning in its simplicity!
We've captured the aromatic essence of the dune with this unisex-leaning fragrance. Top notes of orange peel, sea salt and green grass are folded into waves of earthy sage and eucalyptus midnotes, resting on an island of moss, teakwood, juniper, and subtle hints of patchouli. Tranquil and refreshing.
This listing for one 10ml roll-on bottle.
Ingredients: Fractionated coconut oil and fragrance; mini seashell & pampass grass frond
Dune Perfume Oil Roller
Perfume oil rollers do not contain any alcohol and thus won't have the staying power of a true parfum. However, here's a few tips to get the most out of each application:
- Apply your perfume oil to moisturized skin. Aroma molecules evaporate far more slowly on well hydrated skin. Dry skin will quickly dissipate fragrance as well as those lighter and brighter top notes and floral heart notes.
- Apply after bathing/showering when possible, when pores are open for maximum absorption.
- Try layering your scented products for a longer aromatic experience. Select scents that complement and/or have similar note profiles. A scented lotion or body oil will moisturize AND maximize scent retention.
- Apply to pulse points but do NOT rub in (rubbing will make the top notes burn off more quickly!). If you apply more than you wanted, simply tap your wrists together or dab on another pulse point. Warmth exuded from these points will project scent the longest. Best pulse points: wrists, neck/behind ears, collar bones, heart space, inner elbows (a great spot for long-lasting diffusion!), and behind knees.
- However, there are certain spots that experts DO NOT recommend applying any perfume to, inlcuding eyes, face, privates, scalp, and any irritated, damaged skin (including cuts, scrapes, etc).
- Remember that citrus and floral notes are the most fleeting so a floral-forward scent will dissipate much more quickly than a woodsy or gourmand blend. Thus you may have to reapply these lighter blends a few times throughout the day.
- Also remember that you will get used to your signature scent and won't notice it as much as those surrounding you. So don't be too quick to overapply!
- Keep in mind that if you've been to the gym and worked up a sweat, you'll need to reapply post-shower.
- Store your perfume roller in a cool, dark place for longest shelf life. Do not allow your roller bottle to be exposed to direct sun, excessive heat, high humidity (ahem, like the bathroom), or anywhere that it will be exposed to drastic temperature changes.
