Lughnasadh Natural Fragrance Roller – Blackberry, Oats & Honey Scented Oil

The Lughnasadh Natural Fragrance Roller is a handcrafted, wearable perfume oil scented with wild blackberries, fresh oats, and golden honey:  Brigid's Celtic harvest blend in a roller you can keep in a pocket or a bag.

Roll it on the inside of your wrist, behind your ears, at the base of your throat, anywhere you'd wear perfume, and you carry the scent of Lughnasadh with you. Blackberries at their ripest, oats soft as cut grain, honey quiet and golden. The base is jojoba and castor oil, both naturally skin-friendly, with no parabens, no phthalates, no plastics. Subtle enough for the office, distinctive enough that people will ask.

A natural perfume oil for anyone who'd rather smell like the harvest than a candy counter.

What Is Lughnasadh?

Lughnasadh, celebrated on August 1st, marks the beginning of the harvest season and is named for the Celtic deity Lugh, a revered warrior-king of the Tuatha Dé Danann, the mythic gods of Ireland. Lugh was known for his mastery of many arts and skills, making him a symbol of excellence, leadership, versatility, and abundance. In his honor, Celtic communities gathered at this time of year to give thanks for the grain, fruits, and vegetables ripening in the fields after their long months of labor.

The festival of Lughnasadh was more than a spiritual observance; it was a time of gathering and joy, where communities held games, athletic competitions, and feats of strength. People would strike deals, renew friendships, arrange marriages, and celebrate the fullness of life in all its forms. This seasonal turning point offered a communal pause to acknowledge Nature's generosity, strengthen social bonds, and honor the ancestors.

Later, in the medieval Era, Lughnasadh’s themes of harvest and gratitude were absorbed into Lammas, meaning “loaf mass,” where the first loaves baked from the year’s grain were blessed in churches.

So, how to celebrate Lughnasadh and Lammas today? You can practice some traditional ways by baking bread, long seen as a symbol of sustenance. Set aside time for reflection or altar offerings to honor Nature, your personal growth, or perhaps Lugh or your ancestors, often overlooked in modern society.
