Long, long ago…deep in the Himalayas, the mighty, handsome Shiva, Lord of Lords — one of the Indian Pantheon of Gods — sits deep in meditation inside his cave. The loveliest princess of the realm, Parvathi, is drawn to him and draws near. I will surely seduce him with ease, she thinks. But Shiva does not acknowledge her presence. His body remains motionless, his eyes remain closed. 

Deeply hurt, Parvathi withdraws to the forest. There — braving heat, cold, rain, and snow — she undertakes the essential journey, the one within. In time, her heart blossoms and her inner light radiates. 

Touched by her power and transformation; Shiva is shaken out of his meditation. His eyes open and he appears before her. Smiling, his hand reaches out.

They both awaken to the power of love…

Xila Apothic’s perfumes summon a woman to the true source of her beauty and brilliance.

Is it possible to bottle being? We think so.

Every exquisite ingredient is soul-selected to meet our exacting standards.

And we always remember that what is inside matters most.
