Hala Lani
Hala Lani - Hala: the Hawaiian aphrodisiac. The hala tree (pandanus tectorius) answered a multitude of needs for the ancient Hawaiians. Its leafy branches were used for thatching, leaves (lau) were weaved into mats, hats, sandals, and baskets. Kapa makers dipped the bristly ends of dried hala fruits into dye, using them to paint and stamp patterns into their bark cloth. Even lovers found uses for hala. When foraging for plants to kindle romance, the love-struck would anoint their bodies with the sweet-scented yellow pollen considered an aphrodisiac from the male Hala flower.
Hala trees are dioecious, either male or female. Female trees produce large, round fruits that look like pineapples, but are actually clusters of fruitlets. When ripe, they turn vivid orange, yellow, or red. Lei makers would string them together to create colorful necklaces. Those made with red hala fruit stared in the Hawaiian proverb "A pala ka hala, ‘ula ka ‘a‘i," meaning “When the hala is ripe, necks are red” which is a glorious innuendo!

The Damask Haus process:
Our perfumes are handcrafted and made in small batches with premium ingredients. Each item is made to order to maximize freshness and quality. Each unique perfume is composed of hand blended fragrance notes and may contain essential oils, aroma-molecules, naturals, absolutes and/or co² extracts.
Our oils are designed to leave your skin moisturized and beautifully scented. The unscented carrier oil is absorbed into the skin leaving only the essence of the scent behind to be enjoyed for hours. Perfume oils differ from most brand name perfumes because they lack chemicals (fixatives/stabilizers) and alcohol typically found in store bought bottles. These oil scents often last longer and remain closer to the wearer as opposed to alcohol based perfumes that have more throw.
