Welcome to Yours, Mine and Ours …
Immortal Beloved:
The World’s First Goddess Perfume and Coloring Book
!

We leap in ecstasy to inspire your imagination with a hearty welcome. A New Birth enters the world. The re-birth of the Idea of The Immortal Beloved. And Who or What is THAT???

Yes, it is a BIG IDEA. Yes, it is about a creative collaboration of artists and perfumers. And yes, we are tapping you, Immortal Beloved, to awaken your memory of all things beautiful via your senses and your creativity. Pairing a coloring book with a perfume is experiential art completed by YOU… to inspire, to resonate through time, and to reflect the marvelous complexity of our sensual beings.

This project took exactly a year.  It began with my urge to illustrate some of the humorous accessories I created for styling videos or photo shoots. The first 3 drawings emerged.  Next I began lining them up with goddess myths and stories that inspire me from around the world.  I realized my 12 goddess illustrations, connected to healing rituals I have loved over many years, which then led me to write tons o’ text resulting in a book of almost 80 pages! Immortal Beloved is for every girl and boy. Kids today and cray-cray happenings these days, we all need some Good-Goddess-Soul-Soothing.

Our collaboration with the perfumers of Brooklyn’s House of Cherry Bomb actually began many years ago, as these immortal things tend to do. Meet (l to r) filmmaker and Metropolitan Museum of Art Lecturer, Alexis Karl; me, Jade Dressler, playing artist, illustrator and author; and master perfumer of AromaM, Maria McElroy.

Immortal Beloved, the World’s First Goddess Perfume + Coloring Book is officially launching for holiday, December 2017. The book is now on Amazon, here!  The book and perfume as an extraordinary gift set, is available now, click here for that magic.

Pocahontas, Pinga, Abundantia, El Sirena, Saraswati, Kwan Yin, Ixchel, Freyja, Sheela-Na-Gig, Cleopatra, Amma Mama Africa and Tara, the Black Madonna … familiar and strange names to awaken new skills as a Wonder Woman!

The first gleam in the public eye of the perfume and project occurred November 2016 in a pop-up shop preview presentation for the University of Arizona Museum of Art‘s Head to Toe gala benefit.

Immortal Beloved as a concept taps the wearer into a global scent trail of the ancients and the thread of story and empowerment of Immortal Beings yet to come in the future. (which includes YOU)

To color in the forms of immortal goddesses and create them as art via the Immortal Beloved coloring book opens the imagination and offers a meditative, peaceful pastime. Like enjoying a 1000-piece puzzle, a knitting hobby, or creating a dream catcher filled with wishes and intentions, the slow luxury of coloring evokes and reminds us of our original rhythmic, peaceful and creative selves. This kind of knowing exists and builds through repetition and connection, a ritual as ancient as humanity.

THE PERFUME

immortal-beloved-perfume

Like clothing, form, or myth, perfume is a many layered adornment and celebration of our bodies, and at the same time, it transcends time and memory.  Perfume is a communication between all of nature and her plants, humans, animals, and the pleasures of the moment. There is an art to perfume creation, which extends in turn to the wearers. The scent becomes a part of a multitude of personalities, a signature of connection and individuality that makes history.
