{"product_id":"southernwood-oil","title":"Southernwood Oil","description":"\u003cp\u003eOpening with a light tangerine note mixed with camphor, pine and wormwood, this rare oil was called both Lad's Love and maiden's ruin in the 18th and 19th centuries because of its alleged aphrodisiacal properties and the promise to cure baldness and grow beards in men. It was frequently used as part of a church nosegay (a small bouquet of flowers) sniffed during long church sermons to keep the holder awake and to mask the malodours of large gatherings of people. The French called it \"garderobe\" for its reputation protecting clothes from moths.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pine-woody undertones add structure, while bitter wormwood character (for it is a member of the artemesia genus along with \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/fraterworks.com\/products\/armoise-oil\"\u003eArmoise\u003c\/a\u003e) provides the distinctive signature of that genus. Green herbaceous depth emerges as the oil develops, creating a profile that feels simultaneously medicinal and refreshing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWork with Southernwood Oil sparingly—its intensity requires respect. Use it in fougère and chypre compositions where bitter herbal notes provide complexity, or in masculine aromatics seeking green freshness with character. The camphoraceous lift works beautifully alongside lavender, rosemary, and other aromatic herbs. Blend with oakmoss, coumarin, and citrus oils for novel aromatic effects. Its wormwood-like bitterness adds sophisticated depth to otherwise sweet compositions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll in all, this is an unusual and interesting oil that deserves a wider use in modern perfumery.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fraterworks","offers":[{"title":"1g","offer_id":51630516207928,"sku":"89957-58-4-1","price":6.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"4g","offer_id":51630516273464,"sku":"89957-58-4-4","price":8.75,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"15g","offer_id":51630516339000,"sku":"89957-58-4-15","price":21.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"25g","offer_id":51630516404536,"sku":"89957-58-4-25","price":27.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"50g","offer_id":51630516470072,"sku":"89957-58-4-50","price":47.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"100g","offer_id":51630516535608,"sku":"89957-58-4-100","price":81.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"250g","offer_id":51630516601144,"sku":"89957-58-4-250","price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0682\/1448\/9400\/files\/iStock-924179524.jpg?v=1768753255","url":"https:\/\/fraterworks.com\/products\/southernwood-oil","provider":"Fraterworks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
