Scents of Wellbeing

 

Fragrance is a powerful thing – just one whiff can lift your mood, remind you of a special person or transport you to a far-off place. And if you’re a fan of sublime scents made from all-natural ingredients, you’ll be fawning over the range from newly launched perfume brand van der Faun.

Carefully handcrafted in Australia in small batches (and never tested on animals), each bottle of this luxury fragrance contains a delicately balanced blend of certified organic sugar cane ethanol and certified organic essential oils – with no harmful nasties like synthetic chemicals or artificial preservatives. Inspired by the traditional perfume houses of France, and available in two distinctive scents to suit your mood, van der Faun is a real breath of fresh air from the often-toxic perfume industry.

We have two van der Faun fragrances, Hummingbird and River, (worth $79.99 each) to give away! To go in the draw, leave a comment below telling us which scent you’d like and why using organic beauty and personal care products is important to you. {Competition closes Thursday 30 April 2015 at 5pm.}
