From Neela Vermiere:
"Vedic Era.
The Vedic tradition suggests that wisdom is eternal. It exists within the eternal fabric of consciousness itself and is uncreated. It is the essence of India, the beginning of the journey.
It is a eulogy, a hymn to the idea of India, an act of deepest reverence for the traditions of the mother country. The divine origin of the first three Vedas - Rig, Yajur, and Sama - suggested the name of the perfume: Trayee (pronounced try-ee, meaning 'the triad').
Trayee is a complex fragrance that represents the boundless spiritual landscape of the great Vedic period, which started many centuries ago: its intricate rituals and temple ceremonies, ayurveda, the universe of yoga and the holistic quest for knowledge. The perfume itself has a high percentage of natural ingredients used in many of the Vedic ceremonies."

"As a perfume connoisseur, Neela had a keen awareness of the difference good natural raw materials can make. She began her work with Bertrand Duchafour by giving him free rein to use a costly pallet of attars and resins that would do justice to the sensual splendors of the east-west connections. The result? Several formulas rich with natural oudh, rose and jasmine essentials, real sandalwood and other flowers and spices at concentrations that would frankly be considered ridiculous by commercial standards. You will recognize these superior ingredients - from the first spritz to the lengthy dry-down."
Note: Samples are sold by the 1ml. You may purchase up to 2ml. Samples of 1ml or less will come in a glass vial with a dabber. Samples larger than 1ml will come in small glass spray bottles. All samples will be consolidated unless expressly requested otherwise.
