The Norsk Collection - Viking Beard Oil Gift Tin

This Gift tin includes 4 premium Viking beard oils in 1/2-oz amber bottles in the 4 scents listed below. They're packaged in a reusable (5" x 3-1/2" x 2") tin on a bed of shredded kraft paper with an enclosed description card printed front and back for gift giving. It's neatly tied together with kraft string and embellished with a Fires of Freyja bindrune logo tag.

Scents include:

● Bål is the Norwegian word for Bonfire, which in a word describes sultry, smoky scent. Bonfires were very important in Scandinavian culture and were used for festivals and celebrations, expelling of evil, and for sending fellow vikings into the afterlife. All of these events share the act of being a part of something, be it community, tribe or clan; a place where men and women gathered in the warmth to drink ale or mead in celebration, raising their weapons high into the air in reverence, or just sharing a brotherhood. Bål opens with the strong scent of wood smoke which soon mellows to a sexy smoky birch/oud fragrance. Great alone or layered with other scents. Gather round the fire and honor your ancestors!

● Hygge (HOO-ga) is the Danish and Norwegian word for a mood of coziness and comfort with feelings of wellness and contentment. This scent is my idea of comfort, and to me it goes hand in hand with autumn. I tried to stay away from the "in your face" traditional fall scents and and chose to go with the more subtle; the things which you may not think of right away, but which lend themselves to coziness in cooler weather, like the welcoming scent of coffee on a cold morning, the scent of a favorite leather jacket, the scent of the forest as the leaves crunch beneath your feet, or the scent of last night's bonfire on your shirt. These are the subtle fall scents that give us a sense of warmth and well-being during the cooler, darker months and that's why I've decided to call this one Hygge (Hoo-ga). This is a rich and warm scent with notes of coffee, leather, decaying leaves and wood smoke, blended into a base of mixed woods (including cedar, sandalwood and oud) and vanilla with a hint of nutmeg for the purists out there. It's the perfect beard oil to wear throughout the cooler months.

● Skog (the Norwegian word for forest) recreates a walk through a lush green forest with notes of pine, moss, woods and damp earth. It's a grounding, yet energetic scent for outdoorsmen, forest dwellers, & nature lovers alike.

● Heks, which is the Norwegian word for witch, was inspired by the Old Norse seiðr witches. As musty and mysterious as the time of the old gods; the scent of an ancient altar, medicinal herbs washed away by the scent of incense and candles long burnt out. A breeze blows, musty pages flip as time flashes back to present. Whats left is a mysterious potion. What is ancient can never be fully defined. Heks opens with the scent of burning sage, which quickly moves on to smoke and leather before settling into a woody incense base. A scent for fans of the unknown. Think leather spell books, ancient incense and burned candles; sexy, mysterious. Fires of Freyja Beard Oils are made using my tried and true signature base of sweet almond oil, jojoba oil, and argan oil, with the addition of pure vitamin E oil, which is a natural antioxidant and preservative, and one of the best oils you can put on your beard. This base is then infused with premium-grade, skin-safe fragrance oils & essential oils, for a combination that will soften and tame your beard, while nourishing your skin and your soul. Release your inner Viking!
