Anya's Garden perfumes are an absolutely new experience for me. They are... thoughtful, experimental, and adventurous, without even a glance towards any of fragrance trends. I believe there are no limits in ingredients and combinations when she tries to catch the right expression.

Gender definition, olfactory groups - I think any attempt to give a definition doesn't work here, only your emotions do. It's very important to begin from the very first notes. You can't wear Anya's perfumes in a hurry - fragrance transformation on your skin is very surprising indeed. It's like an adventure. When you inhale the first notes, sometimes you can't even guess what will come next. Don't miss a drop!

There is one Anya's perfume, which I can not just feel - I can see it with my eyes closed. It's Temple. Temple is strong and monumental, like a grandiose and centuries-old tree - a temple built by Nature.

Temple is based on the earth (earth tincture), and Anya couldn't have found a better foundation for her temple, that embodies extreme power and eternal peace. Dry and rich meditative oud wood and a punch of healing Auverdic herbs and exotic spices complete the picture of the sacred place - breathe calmly and feel serene.
