Divine Dancer - Exaltatum - Bloom Perfumery

I was inspired while visiting Kew Gardens in London in May. Every May there are hundreds of blooming magnolia trees in different sorts, sizes, scents and colours. Usually it is a very rainy season and my inspiration was to create a scent of the water and rain on magnolia trees.  

The symbol of this modern perfume is an American modern dance pioneer Ruth St. Denis. She is not only a very talented performer, but also very feminine. 

Divine Dancer is an ethereal, watercoloured, light, fresh, feminine floral perfume. It is modern and vivacious fruity floral scent .

The Divine Dancer perfume is dedicated to one of the first American modern dance and ballet performers Ruth St. Denis.

Her vibrant and spirited art of dance, influenced by the East and South Asia, her divine body move and incredible costumes made Ruth St. Denis a worldwide well known star. Her body projects as Temple of femininity. 

When the dancer emerged from the darkness of the stage, her presence was immediately captivating, the air suddenly fragrant with her appearance. Adorned in jewels from head to toe, radiant in a special gold sari, her hair crowned in jasmine, she is an embodiment of divine feminine, mirroring the images of goddesses of Lakshmi and Saraswati but with the talented Ruth St. Denis touch of modern dance and ballet movement.

All about this fragrance

Vibe check

Think of the quiet interval after spring rain, when wet leaves sharpen the air and pale blossoms seem almost translucent. Divine Dancer brings that delicacy into close conversation: green-edged florals, soft movement and a composed presence rather than theatrical weight.

How to wear

The airy floral and leafy-green profile suits mild spring weather, especially when the air is cool rather than hot. Start with one or two sprays on skin and assess before adding more; this keeps the extrait measured and lets the sandalwood and musk provide a soft counterpoint to the brighter flowers.

Who it’s for

For those drawn to magnolia, violet and green floral compositions, with an appreciation for classical perfumery’s graceful textures. Its appeal lies in the balance between an airy, rain-washed impression and the more traditional softness of rose, sandalwood and musk.

The nose

Eglija Vaitkevice is Exaltatum’s founder and perfumer. Her approach combines a classical French compositional sensibility with inspiration drawn from art, nature and personal memory. She develops fragrances over months, allowing them to mature before hand-filling the bottles. Divine Dancer translates her encounter with rain-soaked magnolias at Kew Gardens into an airy floral composition, linking a closely observed natural scene with the expressive movement of dance.

Exaltatum’s story

Exaltatum is an artisanal London perfume house built around art, nature and personal memory. Eglija Vaitkevice creates fragrances that suggest stories without prescribing the wearer’s interpretation, combining classical composition with expressive materials and a hands-on approach to maturation and bottling.

Divine Dancer’s concept

Divine Dancer began with a May visit to Kew Gardens, where magnolia trees in bloom inspired Vaitkevice to capture the impression of rain and water on their flowers. Its second inspiration is the American modern dance pioneer Ruth St. Denis: the fragrance is dedicated to her expressive movement, elaborate costumes and Eastern and South Asian artistic influences.

Extra info

Despite its light, watercolour floral concept, Divine Dancer is currently offered as an extrait de parfum.
