Inspiration 創作靈感
"This Too Shall Pass" is a Persian proverb by Sufi saint Fariduddin Attar. You can check the full story on the internet. When in distress or pain, remember this phrase, when in happiness or ecstasy, also remember this phrase, for nothing lasts forever in its state. Everything we see and feel will eventually fade.
As in Tao Te Jing, chapter 23 states: "Strong winds do not last all morning, hard rains do not last all day. What cause them? Heaven and Earth. If Heaven and Earth are unable to persist, how could man?"
飄風不終朝,驟雨不終日,狂風暴雨是依循自然之道,終究會消散,最後歸於風平浪靜、雨過天青的自然常軌。(出自道德經第23章)
Here we've also applied a symbol on the bottle, Eihwaz in rune-
a symbol of age, endurance, death, and eternal life.
Scents
As in typical OM series we focus more on the Ouds. Here we explore an universe with Ouds and sweet florals, and of course other aspects. It's juicy and honey-like, and the sweetness is enhanced by the peach and real apricot liquid. The nectar-like sweetness in the fruits blends amazingly with white champaca sourced from LMR as well! The ouds here are selected cautiously by us, there's no barn yard or animal fecal scent- a beautiful symphony is composed with the tender, and sweet flower smell from Malaysian Oud and Burma. I must say the Hindi Oud here plays a rather balancing effect for butterscotch, turning our sweet cravings into a wearable and mood lifting base when the scent dries down.
As the name suggests, this is in our perspective a scent filled with hope and realization.

THE SCENTORIUM MANIFESTO: Art Resists Fragmentation
Scentorium does not merely retail fragrance. We function as a curated gallery dedicated exclusively to artisanal olfactory art. Our portfolio is ruthlessly filtered, featuring only independent houses that create with absolute intention, rarity, and vision.
We respect the craftsmanship of independent perfumers too much to compromise their creations. Therefore, we operate on a singular, uncompromising principle: The Purity of the Original Experience.
The Threat to the Olfactory Vision
An artisanal perfume is a delicate, perfectly balanced ecosystem. The exact moment the liquid is extracted from its controlled environment on the grey market—exposed to oxygen, light, plastic syringes, and inferior glass vials by unauthorized resellers—its olfactory profile is irrevocably damaged. The top notes oxidize, the base degrades, and the artist's original vision is obliterated.
This is why Scentorium categorically condemns the fractional grey market. It strips perfume of its pedigree and turns art into a compromised commodity.
Our Rules of Engagement:
- Zero Compromise on Full Bottles: We exclusively retail full bottles exactly as designed, sealed, and shipped by the creator. We assume zero responsibility for any product purchased outside our official network.
- The Provenance Guarantee: Purchasing from Scentorium ensures the fragrance traveled straight from the perfumer’s atelier to your hands within a flawlessly climate-controlled, unbroken chain of custody.
- Right of Refusal: Any client identified as purchasing from our portfolio with the intent of fractional resale on unauthorized platforms will permanently lose the privilege of acquiring works through Scentorium.
The Authorized Sampling Program: Exploration with Respect
We recognize a fundamental truth of artisanal perfumery: true masterpieces cannot be rushed. They require time, skin chemistry, and intimate exploration before committing to a full bottle.
The solution to this is not the illicit fragmentation of art. The solution is absolute transparency and control.
To honor the discovery process, Scentorium provides an Authorized Sampling Program.
We offer official discovery sets crafted directly by our partner houses. For exceptional brands that do not produce their own official samples, Scentorium bridges the gap—but we do not operate in the shadows.
Every custom Scentorium sample is created with the explicit, formal authorization of the parent brand. We do not "decant."
We perform authorized extractions using clinically sterile glass instruments in a strictly climate-controlled environment. This ensures zero cross-contamination, minimal oxygen exposure, and the perfect preservation of the scent profile.
We provide these authorized extractions for one reason only: pure olfactory discovery. They are curated tools designed to lead you to the complete artwork, not commodities meant for endless fractional resale.
Experience the creator’s true intention.
Do not settle for unverified fractions.
