It smells... like safety, if that has a smell. Like life is suppose to smell when it is good and clean and joyful... I realize that is a mental and emotional state, and yet it remains the truth. Probably it smells a bit different to everyone, because we are all different and this smells like being home, safe and well.

Its smooth texture feels so good when applied to the skin. It is cold at first then gets warm and you can really feel the penetration to the muscles when rubbed.

Body butters are my favorite materia, they're so intimate and luxurious. TM body butter has not let me down, it is EXTRA EXTRA luxurious. I was worried the jar would be very small, but it's not. It's rather substantial. The butter itself is thick and potent. It's not a thin, melty consistency and a little goes a long way. This also smells to me like my Oma's German Christmas cookies, and Church incense, and holiness. I've used the butter a handful of times, only dabbing on the tiniest dabs of materia. The scent is very relaxing, when used on myself during ritual it's really elevated the scaredness and overall ritual experience. Deeper rituals, better results, more devotion... It also relaxes me into a deeper meditation space, those experiences have also become more complex and vivid when using TM bb.

this was a definite splurge but I'm leaning towards a 2nd purchase when the next purchase window opens.
