Our Journey

The practice of using handcrafted precious oils has been appreciated for thousands of years. Our purpose at Call of the Valley is to continue delivering and to uphold this sensual experience with elegance, virtue, in luxury and sophistication.

Call of the Valley is born out of a desire to reconnect city dwellers back to nature through the sensorial experience of wearing precious oils and fragrance oils. Our brand name Call of the Valley carries the sentiment in what we visualise and craft: it reflects a momentary phenomena which circulates the atmosphere before it disappears from the present moment, leaving behind a trace and an everlasting impact on the beholder. Core to the brand’s philosophy, we use our utmost diligence and care to preserve the integrity of natural resources and to adopt processes which keep the raw materials as pure and unadulterated as possible. We pride on using the finest raw materials we can possibly source and being transparent with what we do.

The oils we have formulated respect the simplicity of mother nature, we have created a recipe that is easy to understand and explain to others.
Our aim is to uphold the living, active properties of any ingredient provided to us from its source, refraining from additional or over embellishment.
By keeping the equation simple, people can easily identify and understand exactly what they are using on their skin and bodies, and to be able to explain this effortlessly to others.

Our Perfume Oils

At Call of the Valley, our vision for perfumery is more subtle and discreet.
Conventional perspectives for fragrance concentrate on making an external impact, whereas for us, we invite an inward experience that is personal and intimate for the wearer and those closest to them. We have chosen cotton seed oil as the main carrier oil because of its light texture and neutral odour. By avoiding all use of chemicals as well as alcohol, we hope to uphold our natural philosophy in its entirety and inspire a fresh perspective and appreciation for natural fragrance and how to wear it.

Each of our perfume oils are brought to you through a patient process of co-distillation of the main ingredient with sandalwood. By extracting the essential oils simultaneously, we are creating a fragrance where the notes are “born” together to make the blend. Alchemically, this differs to methods of simply blending or chemically mixing ingredients together and involves working with a natural wood fire; just the extraction of essential oils takes days or even weeks to complete. Granted, this is truly an extraordinary way to create natural perfumery which is no longer common practice or skill, even in the world of artisans.

We not only take pride in the quality of the raw materials we source, but also the families or communities we choose to work with who support our brand ethos in honouring artisanal methods. Everything has been sourced, extracted and handled with great care, respect and each part of the process is diligently executed to uphold the natural integrity of the ingredients and our resulting products. With our fragrance oils, this is no exception where we have worked with perfumers´ families in the North of India with a combined commitment for craft and natural perfumery that go beyond usual methods.

FRANGIPANI FLOWER

Frangipani carries its scent in the evening as a sweet, heady floral reminiscent of the tropics and evoking a sense of depth, creaminess and warmth.
Often likened to gardenia or jasmine, it also has nuances of creamy fruits such as coconut.
The flower itself is regarded as a symbol of immortality in India and widely revered as sacred in Asia; it is frequently seen to be planted in gardens of temples.

WHITE GINGER LILY

As its name would suggest, fruity and spicy undertones of ginger sit core in the scent profile of this flower which is native to India in the regions of Sikkim and the Himalayas. Notably intense, rich and considerably complex floral note, it is said that white ginger lily also invites a hypnotic quality and an intoxicating aroma alongside hints of cinnamon and honey.

SANDAL WOOD

As a single ingredient fragrance oil, this is our honorary tribute to the raw material, bringing you a rare opportunity to fully appreciate sandalwood in its own right.
The complexity of bitter yet sweet, soft and creamy notes emanating from this sacred wood invites a warm, heightening experience of true godliness…

HENNA

A tantalising fougere capturing the freshness of henna leaves alongside
the warmth of sandalwood.
Allow the fragrance to evolve with your body heat and bring forth a hint of sweetness through the gentle aromatic profile. Reminiscent of morning dew evaporating with the heat of the rising sun.

Our Precious Butters

A butter version of our hero product, this butter formula offers itself as a more heavyweight option. As a raw, natural product, it is highly sensitive to temperature and should be stored below 25˚c to ensure the Coco Milk is maintained in the intended solid state.
We have presented the Coco Milk Butter in jars to allow easy access as well as enabling more a generous application where it can be used in a multitude of ways and gives all the benefits of using an oil in a more solid form. The butter is especially appropriate during the colder months of the year when we necessitate a denser, nutrient rich formula to provide a more substantial level of hydration and protection for our skin, hair and body.

We encourage everyone to experiment with our oils and the way you use them. Due to the consistency and changing state of the butter, it can also be combined with other products, oils and even powders. (A suggestion from us would be to create a cream blush for make-up application with natural mineral powders.)
Handling our Coco Milk Butter should also be easier compared to the Coco Oil if you are experimenting as the solid form and physical state allows more control, especially if you are blending and mixing with other substances and products.
