If Arcane Petals has a single heartbeat, it is jasmine.

Jasmine is the scent that has followed me throughout my life—the fragrance of warm nights at my great grandmother’s home, the perfume that clung to my childhood summers, the note that holds both grief and joy in its delicate white petals. Jasmine is more than a flower. It is memory. It is possibility. It is the thread that has stitched together who I was, who I am, and who I hope to become.

There’s something paradoxical about jasmine. It is soft yet piercing, familiar yet otherworldly. One moment it comforts you like a lullaby, the next it startles you awake like a flash of lightning across the night sky. That duality is what I love most: jasmine carries contradiction with grace. It holds both endings and beginnings, nostalgia and discovery, ache and hope.

Every essence I make carries that whisper of  my jasmine—even if it’s not in the formula. Sometimes it’s an actual base note, weaving its way through orange blossom or rose. Other times, it’s the inspiration behind the blend: the memory of jasmine bushes outside my great-grandmother’s home, or the way the night air feels fuller, kinder, when touched by its sweetness.

For Arcane Petals, jasmine is not simply a note on a fragrance pyramid. It’s the core of my storytelling. When I speak of scent as a spell, jasmine is the incantation. When I say every bottle is a diary entry, jasmine is the ink.

My hope is that, through Arcane Petals, jasmine becomes not just my story—but yours too. Perhaps it will remind you of a childhood garden, or of a summer you thought you’d forgotten. Perhaps it will become your talisman, your thread of continuity in a world that asks us to forget too much.

Jasmine has taught me this: beauty doesn’t have to be perfect to endure. It can be tender, fleeting, and still linger long after it’s gone. And maybe, if we let it, it can remind us that we are also allowed to bloom—again and again, even in the darkest seasons.

So if Arcane Petals is a sanctuary, jasmine is the door that is always open. And you are welcome here. 🌙✨
