Wolf Moon: Purple Sage & Pinon Hair Gloss

Purple Sage & Pinon.

It's official. Purple sage is my favorite sage. I knew I enjoyed it in scents like Colemanite Phoenix, Thirteen (13): January 2023, and No Man is an Island, but it is really the star of this duet. It's so relaxing and herbaceous in a way that reminds me of lavender. The piñon lurks behind it and complements it perfectly.

 

I tested this in wet hair one day and dry the next. I could smell the scent in my hair on both days, but it was far more prominent in dry hair. Whenever I would have my hair up in a bun and took it down, I would always get a nice whiff of the hair gloss, which made me feel really relaxed. 

 

I have a decant in the original bottle, and although I have very few desert-y scents to pair with this, I don't think a decant's worth will be enough. I just feel like this is one of those scents that will be hard to obtain more of once it is gone, and I can't bear the thought of running out when it is so comforting, so I am going to have to get a bottle.

I blind-bottled this based on the strength of this review + another forumite's recommendation, and I'm SO glad I did! Purple Sage & Pinon is the absolute PERFECT complement to Wolf Moon -- it's SO herbaceous, camphorous, and a little bit smoky. The smoky/sharp camphor really brings out a surprising sappy sweetness in Wolf Moon I hadn't noticed before, and just makes me love it even more. Lovely, very photorealistic sage note (I can see the lavender comparison!), which I'm ecstatic about because I love sage and so far every perfume I've tried with sage listed as a note has mysteriously failed to appear on my skin. 

 

If you're a fan of Wolf Moon or foresty/camphorous scents in general, you'll want to grab this one before it goes down. It is what it says on the tin, and it's fantastic!
