Author Created & Blended
These essential oil blends can be used in diffusers to fill the room with a variety of alluring scents, or come pre-diluted in oils suitable for skin, hair and beards, or as misters to spray on just about anything!
Melissa creates and hand-blend each oil herself, using only the highest quality carrier oils and essential oils–no synthetic fragrance oils–each ingredient is something you could actually find in an Iyarri stronghold.
Nothing helps Melissa more as an independent author than choosing to purchase books from her directly (Amazon takes 56% of every hardcover sale), and when she sends them to you, she also gets to tuck in some extra goodies. Hardcovers purchased on NightBlooming or Etsy come with your choice of one Novel Blend oil, and on Patreon, you get five.
One of the key reasons Melissa decided to publish The Iyarri Chronicles independently was so that she maintained ownership to each and every one of her creative rights, and with those rights, could extend her writing into my other artistic pursuits–one of those being creating essential oil blends inspired by her world and characters.
The Iyarri use herbal-infused oils to clean their wings, giving each one their own distinctive scent, and these are the inspiration for Novel Blends.
The connection `{`of the oils`}` to the book makes it all the more special: “Yes, this is what Aamon’s wings smell like. I don’t have to imagine, I have it in my hands. –Iyarri Chronicles Fan & NightBlooming Customer

Oil blend or mister, I love Lucien in any shape and form.
The scent makes me think of a wintry forest, in a way, which might be because of the essential oils “white fir” and “wintergreen”.
It’s a bit hard for me to narrow it down more than that.
The scent is unique, I think.
Unlike what’s common with unisex scents from other stores’ products, Lucien doesn’t have that additional scent that makes it more or less suited to men only, with Lucien the oil blend/mister works splendidly regardless of sex.
I also find the scent soothing (calming).
Since I don’t care (and never have) to use perfumes, the mister works splendidly as a substitute.
Can tell, after a few months of using Lucien regularly, that my hair look healthier than ever.
