ADD-ONS - (provided your order has not already processed, shipped) Reminder (see below) Processing & Handling fee of $1 will be added per bottle and .50 per vial sample for add-ons so do order accordingly, take your time before your initial order but do feel free to add-on perfumes 

ATTENTION!  Effective Immediately and with all pending orders. 6.28.22 to infinity and beyond (or something changes);

As some of you might know, we have been having supply-chain issues with our current dropper lids.  After months of testing, we’re going to move forward with non-dropper lids called “phenolic” lids.  This is only for the traditional 5ml amber bottle (all other bottles are not affected).  These phenolic lids seal much tighter and while they do not have a seal proof ring or an orifice reducer on the inside, these have proven to ship without any leaks.  For those that prefer the dropper, these are available in the Studio Limited Bazaar area to purchase and very easy to swap out once your order arrives to you.  We just wanted to give you a heads up now that you do not pour the perfume on as there will no longer be dropper lids/orifice reducers in our bottles and to take note of this change of lid immediately.

All orders that have not shipped will now arrive to you in a phenolic lid.  No insert or dropper for this.  This is ONLY for the traditional amber 5ml and the cobalt blue 5ml.

 Egyptian Sweets, Coffee & Tea now with new perfumes and in 5ml Cobalt blue bottles!

Eternal Goddess is available now in the Permanent Collection - Eternals

SPEAKING OF COBALT BLUE BOTTLES!

We are beginning the transition away from Amber 5ml and toward all Cobalt Blue or 5ml Slender Blue for our entire Permanent Collection bottles.  The first PC collection to debut the new blue cobalt bottle will be the entire Egyptian Sweets Coffee & Tea collection on May 15, including the 4 new scents!  Because our library is vast, we'll do this one collection at a time.  Until then, you only have a few more weeks of the slightly lower-priced amber bottle for the Egyptian Sweets Coffee & Tea collection.

January 2023

Arriving this Summer (near the Summer '23 Limited ): A new look for our Studio Limited! Beginning with our Studio Limited Originals line (with new SLO perfumes coming soon). Introducing our 5mL slender blue bottle, featuring an insert dropper and black screw cap. These elegant slender bottles were the perfect investment when deciding on a new ‘blue’ look for the Studio Limited. Please note that the dome-capped cylindrical bottles for the Musk and Observatory lines will not change because this implementation applies only to the Studio Limited Originals at this time. Friendly reminder: Crystalline will be leaving the store in late 2024, and Opal Vanilla will be retiring in late 2023 or early 2024 (while supplies last due to ingredients no longer being available). New SLO perfumes will join the store throughout the remainder of this year, such as our unreleased "Pyramid Vanille 4,"  The traditional 5ml amber bottle is available at the link below before the slender blue bottles change. PC will be changing to the 5ml Cobalt Blue (ie the Egyptian Sweets, Coffee & Tea being the first collection to change over). More exciting news to come!

Last Add-ons can be taken up to 3pm on November 1st for both Halloween Limited, after this time no one will be here and both Limited Halloween will come down at 8pm Pacific.  Precisely.  Please be mindful just because it's in your cart does not guarantee it is yours until you have completed the purchase.

HALLOWEEN '23 LIMITED concluded Nov 1 at 8pm Pacific.

NA NEWS! 01.27.23
Happy Friday! Valentine is arriving next week, so we wanted to prepare you by letting you know that secret squirrel before anyone else. February 1 at 8am Pacific we’ll launch the new Valentine ’23 Limited as well as the Valentine Resurgence. The Limiteds will be up seven weeks and come down on March 29th at 8pm Pacific. Since Thoth’s Archive is up now and doesn’t come down until March 11th, there is a nice overlap if you might want to pick up any RS, Eclipse or Musks as this is their last time and then they retire on Mach 11.
     Some news far in advance, our beloved Studio Limited Crystalline was always a blending vanilla for us but our customers wanted us to offer this beautiful perfume as is and we have but we’re letting you know in advance we will be retiring it in 2024 (exact date TBA), so you have some time before it leaves the store. Since we’re discussing Crystalline, the perfume artists at NA wanted to release eleven special Crystalline ‘art’ blends including Crystalline itself with a special art label beginning with the Valentine Limited next week. There will be a total of twelve Crystalline ‘art’ perfumes released within Limited Collections only and we hope you are as excited about them as we are. We wanted to give Crystalline one last hurrah in the best way we know how. The first few of these will launch next week in special limited purple-colored bottles and will be available exclusively at the Valentine LC.
     Add-ons will now have a processing & handling fee of $1 per bottle. You can add-on as many as you like but we’ll include the $1 per bottle in our payment information reply. This processing fee will begin February 1.  Vial samples will incur a per vial .50 processing and handling fee.
     Blue bottles. From the Valentine Limited forward (unless something changes), our Limited Collection bottles will now be in the traditional 5ml blue bottle. Resurgence throughout 2023 will remain in amber 5ml. Special bottles within our Limited Collections you’ve come to know and love such as the cylindrical musk bottles with domed lids, or the Eclipse blue pearl bottles or even the special Crystalline ‘art’ bottles mentioned before will not be included in this, they will remain those special bottles.
NEW Meditation Musks are here in the Musk Haven

Signature Confirmation! - Occasionally we add complimentary Signature Confirmation allowances and they are given as a courtesy and we also expedite the order (typically orders take 1-3 weeks) a little bit.  We will add Signature Confirmation on the house for random new customers or orders that are rather large, on the house.  Once the PO attempts delivery but no one is home they should leave a note that you can reply to requesting they try again.  Sometimes they come back the next or the following day to try again.   I know not all postal people will do this but you can also sign into USPS.com with your tracking from any computer and also request your package to be redelivered to your home without signature if you are unable to get to the PO.  So, you don't have to go into the USPS, but we do this as a precaution and also a small gesture from us for your precious perfumes!  You can also add the Priority Mail Signature Confirmation at check-out when making payment at the store.

Hello everyone!

We have been hard at work over the last year working on mitigations to address periodic increases in reported leaks from you, our beloved clients. We maintain an extremely high standard for quality assurance and these issues are unacceptable to us, so we wanted to share what we have implemented so far as well as what we are testing out for the future.

The perfumery material supply chain has been heavily impacted by the Covid global pandemic. Stock-outs and quality degradation from our bottle suppliers have been frustrating challenges that we have navigated intensely so that we can continue to share our art with all of you. When the first incidence of about 1% of orders reporting leaks occurred last year, we took swift action. The leaks were isolated to the classic bottle style with the reducer insert and flat black cap, while the narrow neck bottles (cylindrical) with the fancy metallic-domed lids and the special-colored bottles were unaffected. We lodged complaints with our bottle supplier and worked with them to return a massive inventory for replacement with their assurance that this would resolve the problem. We also implemented additional packaging practices, including shrink wrap for our caps, double-taped tighter plastic wraps, and elastic bands for our colored bottles.

We also standardized our response to reported leaks with a policy of offering a 1 mL vial of replacement perfume volume and a new label. Most leaks were observed to be on the order of a few drops (which is of course unacceptable to us), so we wanted to ensure that we went well over and above the leaked volume for replacement, and to also replace the liquid-resistant labels which were occasionally affected. We also would like to note that although our perfumes are stated as 5 mL, we always fill our bottles significantly higher than that so that customers are confident that bottles are visually completely full. This is a common practice in the artisan perfume oil community which we chose to adopt early on, aligning with industry standard. Because of this, we take pride in knowing that our clients always secretly receive more than what they paid for, with this covert knowledge known mostly only to our decanters who measure volumes regularly. We are sharing this information just to provide context to the magnitude of volume and how we are addressing it while we work on better solutions, and we know that this does not address the inconvenience of receiving an imperfect product.

After implementing our new order of bottle supplies as well as our new packaging measures, the incidence of leaks greatly dropped to almost zero. While we were thrilled that these efforts were effective, we kept researching other options just in case. We identified another bottle supplier that tested well against our requirements, and when another wave of reported leaks began a few months later, we were well prepared to quickly switch to the new supplier. This action proved quite effective in the short term, but having learned from experience, we continued to explore more transformative changes.

With seasonal temperature fluctuations at this time of year, the incidence of leaks seems to have increased yet again with the Summer Limited Collections. This is disappointing considering our corrective efforts thus far; however, we have continued to actively pursue additional solutions that are currently in the testing phase. Potential short-term changes include using a blank cone cap without a reducer dropper insert, which is being evaluated as we speak and may be implemented if it meets our standards. Our longer-term plan is a total rebrand with a different bottle style, which is a major change that has been in the works for over half a year thus far. Our current favorite is a taller slimmer bottle crafted from gorgeous cobalt blue glass, and we hope to be able to secure a stable enough inventory and reliable supply to be able to offer a new bottle design like this to all of you soon.

We deeply value each and every one of you for every order that you make, which gives us the thrilling opportunity to spread love and light through perfumed art. We hope that our transparency with our Covid-related challenges is helpful information, and we cannot thank you enough for your patience and understanding as we continue to address these challenges as our priority.

Sincerely,

House of NA

SPRING Limited Collection (and Resurgence) are both LIVE SPRING COMES DOWN from the store May 20th at midnight Pacific.  Resurgence is the 2nd and last time at the store and will not return.
We have some VANILLA NEWS!
For several years, we’ve managed to avoid pricing impact to our precious vanilla perfumes due to the vanilla shortage and Covid-related shipping/receiving issues. We accomplished that in several ways, one of which was ensuring our contracts were renegotiated during this time span with our Vanilla Bean vendors around the globe. At this time, we’ve come to the end of many of these contracts, and understandably some of these Vanilla bean companies are much smaller and family-operated – we also don’t want them to go out of business or we won’t be able to offer some of our Vanilla perfumes. On *May 13th* (two and half weeks from today) we will implement a very slight increase for our 'vanilla' Studio Limited and Vanilla blends to accommodate the new price structure from our vendors. NA is a small business, and we support small family-owned businesses around the globe. These small price adjustments are necessary, but we wanted to give you some time to order some of these Vanilla scents before the increase occurs. The price increase will be $2-3 (5ml) and 10ml will be comparable to the increase adjustment for the 5ml doubled as will the 2ml (where applicable as some have no samples or 10ml option) depending on the Vanilla and the concentration of the raw material in the perfume.
We hope to continue offering you gorgeous vanilla perfume originals, blends, and special vanilla-focused scents, and we appreciate your understanding for the minor price increases that will sustain our capability to celebrate vanilla in all its splendor.
 
Add-ons are now over at 3pm Pacific April 5th but don't worry we'll turn add-ons back on a week and a day from April 5th (April 13th).  Now we'll begin processes orders.  We appreciate your patience and understanding.  Though some people will receive their orders first, we are moving down the queue as orders came in and will be at your order as soon as we can.

As a courtesy to our beloved customers, we want to inform you all that our Bastet Amber perfume will be discontinued in approximately 6 months on 02.22.22 (Feb 22, 2022).  Special 15ml will arrive in the Valentine Limited Collection of Bastet's Amber if you're looking to treat yourself or get a larger size in a special bottle!!

However, it is time for Bastet Amber to be retired. Thank you so very much for loving this blend as much as we do! We are announcing this far in advance to give you all as much notice as possible.

We will explore opportunities to bring BA back in the future as something special, possibly as an annual limited edition release as components are available.

Summer Limited Collection has left the store and will be unavailable to purchase once the collection leaves the store.

EMAIL support@NocturneAlchemy.com but first READ the FAQ how to order add-ons section!

Please follow add-on procedures (see above) otherwise you will receive multiple packages from the queue in which we received the orders.  Email Freja (also above) if you would like Add-on information before placing further orders provided your initial order has not shipped.  Thank you!

Please note the excessive heat - please allow perfumes to come to room temperature - do not put in the fridge (this is a common question for our CS).  Put the Priority box somewhere safe and wait a few days for proper molecule scented bliss.  We ship fast so you can take a few days to sit them aside and return to room temperature and where the scent should be.

The complimentary 2ml for Limited Collection direct store orders is an unreleased Studio Limited DEUX perfume:  Crimson & Kashmir is SOLD OUT as of July 5 but 5ml is available NOW in the Studio Limited DEUX section!  Subsequent orders or if sample has been depleted we will include a different 2ml sample in your order.  These are for direct store orders not from ordering at other sites/stores.

THOTH'S Archive #3 BUNNIES!

Hello! 

As you may already know, the upcoming Thoth's Archive will feature 9 returning bunnies as well as 3 all-new bunnies. Thoth has been hard at work rebuilding the 9 returning bunnies, but due to so many challenges in tracking down all the perfume components for them, these will be very limited in quantity. If you are really searching for any of the 9 returning bunnies, we suggest that you order directly from the store due to their limited quantity. However, the 3 new bunnies are exclusive to this Thoth’s Archive, and should remain available through the one-month duration of Thoth’s Archive because they are in full Master Bottles.

The Archive will arrive in the Limited Collection area denoted by the Egyptian sacred Thoth tile. Arrival time is 12noon Pacific on Saturday, March 6th and limited to one month or until bunnies are depleted, whichever comes first. Please note this we added an extra week to our normal six weeks for this update, and we have decided to continue with 7-week updates in the future for the seasonal Limited collections (Valentine, Spring, Summer, Halloween & Holiday)!

See you on Saturday! ALL three Collections in the Limited Collection area are filled and ready to ship!! Each BUNNY order will receive an exclusive 2ml bunny perfume yet to be released. One per customer and available while supplies last. Details in the collection when it launches this Saturday!! Pick up some Valentine perfume and a few hop-a-longs together!

ENHANCER Musks are now available in the Studio Limited Musk Haven Collection!!!  Six new perfumes to enhance your Musk Haven perfume Library!!  Read about it more in the Musk Haven section.

As always NEW information like this is in Thoth’s Scroll every time we have an update

Thoth's Archive #3 BUNNIES Saturday March 6 at 12Noon Pacific through April 3 midnight Pacific.  When a BUNNY sells out, the purchase option will no longer be available in the drop down.

Add-Ons

PROVIDED your order has not shipped or is being currently processed and taken to the Post Office...Add-on requests will resume Monday February 8th.  Thank you!!!  The prior Add-on cut-off time is now over and we will resume add-on requests!

Please email Support@NocturneAlchemy.com with your add-on request, please follow the instructions provided in the FAQ area of our store provided your pending order has not shipped.  We will not accept add-ons for upward of 2 weeks from the launch of the new Limited Collection so that we may process and ship orders quickly!  We will again accept once the bulk of the new Limited Collection orders are out in the mail (about 10-14 days after the update).

How do I get my new Valentine perfumes quickly?

Valentine Limited & Resurgence Limited perfumes are ready to ship.  If you order only from the most current Limited Collections - your order will ship way before the current ship time below.  If you order samples, we will need to prepare these by hand and your order will remain within that 2-3 week window.  We strive to ship sooner and usually do!  The Valentine update is early so that we can have time to prepare thousands of orders and ship to you in a timely manner so that you may enjoy them over the course of Valentine/February!  You will receive a tracking email once your order has shipped or use the emailed receipt at the time of your order to check the button there to see if your order has shipped, if there is no tracking, we're still working on orders and appreciate your patience.  Sending an email asking where your order is will stop Freja from assisting shipping and slow the process down.  We truly do appreciate your patience.

Current SHIP TIME 1-2 weeks for LC only orders. 2-3 weeks (not including weekends/holidays/store closures) for all other store orders.  Due to a time-frame built around the Limited Collections, these orders are our priority but we typically are much faster than our estimated time above.  Do not worry, we will ship your order very soon!

The Observatory is now LIVE in the Studio Limited.  The Zenith free sample (future Observatory) has been depleted but Zenith will be joining in bottle form in 2021

RETIRING:  Studio Limited are essential perfumes available while source materials are attainable. Darks and Anniversary blends from the Studio Limited Originals retire permanently late 2021 or while supplies last, so if there is a favourite, please pick them up now!
