Have you ever smelled your perfume and thought, "This just isn't godly enough?" You're in luck, because Virtue is a an absolutely divine fragrance. No, really. The perfume is "scent from the Bible" and is, as far as I know, the world's only Christian fragrance.
Virtue's notes come from plants and oils mentioned in the Bible; some of the things you'll smell are fig, pomegranate, cinnamon, frankincense, and myrrh. And as Virtue's creators put it, you'll smell just heavenly:
"In practically all religions and Spiritual practices, persons of high spiritual attainment are known to give off a fragrance, attributed to their Virtue. Christ, many of the Saints, and numerous others with highly developed spirituality, are, historically, known to have given off such a fragrance."
Lord knows how Virtue smells, because at $80 a bottle, it's a little too expensive for me to try out on blind faith alone. Think you'd give it a sniff, or do you think the idea reeks of sacrilege?

I can't even handle the incense that my (Catholic) church burns(which I know contains frankincense) during the holidays. It smells nice in small doses, but in perfume? Not for me...
1No thanks. I mean, (expensive) Christian-branded cosmetics?? Get real, please.
2I think I'll try it. I actually like the spicy aroma at church! This is hopefully a subtle blend

3i want to smell it!
4I prefer cosmetics that promote temptation, thanks.
5Wow...its worth a shot i guess. Kinda skeptical about it being a Christian brand fragrance. What makes this so Christ-like?
6Hm, frankincense and myrrh don't really say "smellin-of-virtue" to me. I imagine virtue to smell more like nucar and manilla envelopes.
7I'm with Bailaoragaditana...no thanks!
8quick question - will this happen to other religions? Like can I get a Muslim or Buddhist scent - I find this hilarious
9Doesn't God have a hand in all perfumes? I mean he supposedly made everything. Sounds like religion jumping on the dollar train to me.
10"Sounds like religion jumping on the dollar train to me."
agreed.
11I think if you tell ignorant sheep to buy something that will make them "more virtous/holy", they will definitely buy it.
12HAHA. This just proves how far people are willing to go to make a buck. I always felt weird selling Amazing Grace, even though that's a little different!
13I actually purchased a bottle of the cologne spray in an outlet shop on Jamaica Avenue in NY for $35 - It smells really nice, clean, and there must be a little bit of vanilla because it is sweetly unobtrusive with only a hint of the frankensense and a slight bit of myrrh. It has musky and cinnamonly undertones but it doesn't smell cheap. I have received comments from many men and women ask me where I got it. My new husband loves it and I am looking to get more of it. I did not know that it was a Christian Fragrance. It smells sooooo - good.
