::Eternal fragrance journeying to meet the divine within::
In the 16th century, spices were intertwined with exploration, mysticism, war, and geographical discoveries. At a time when spices were more precious than gold, fleets from the East crossed the Line of Demarcation. During their spice-laden voyages, they collaborated with alchemists and cosmologists aboard to study the "heart-healing" properties of spices. Their extraordinary encounters and secret formulas were compiled into the "Ancient Manuscript of Heart Healing."
ARTO from the mysterious East encompasses the essence of Eastern charm, exotic allure, maritime adventure, cultural taboos, the union of body and spirit, the transformation of misfortune into fortune, and the divination of the future.
ARTO Trading Company utilizes natural ingredients and collaborates with industry-leading fragrance companies such as Firmenich, Givaudan, and IFF. Together with globally renowned perfumers, astrological researchers, navigators, and neurologists, they have crafted the unique Die Mai fragrances. The mission of Die Mai is to enrich the global understanding of spices, narrating the stories and historical evolution behind them from an Eastern perspective. For fragrance enthusiasts, Die Mai offers a rich and exquisite collection of rare and extraordinary scents.
TOP-TIER CUSTOMIZATION
FOUNDED IN HONG KONG
The Arctic Axis Alchemist is an independent astrological perfumery laboratory established in 1992 in Hong Kong. It is an academic organization formed by top perfumers and astrologers during their spare time. Die Mai Trading Company collaborates with the Arctic Axis Magicians to explore the relationship between celestial bodies, humans, and scents.
We aim to use specific fragrances to predict imagery and simulate the patterns between scents and humans based on celestial laws. From the Great Flood to Noah's Ark, from solar magnetic storms to narwhals struck by lightning, from the red sea monster under a full moon to the miracles discovered by alchemists in the Arctic—our work delves into these mystical connections.

Santal dorIJ par le givre‘ story
In November 1842, the ATRO trading fleet, during its global voyage to ancient India (the Mughal Empire), encountered numerous Danish and Dutch fleets, as well as British merchants who had purchased a large number of Dutch ships. Against the backdrop of military upheaval and colonization, various local "scent sachets" used for attracting wealth and blessings gained popularity and were subsequently brought back to Europe by the British. In an era when spices were more valuable than gold, these sachets sparked widespread fascination and innovation. The original recipes were enhanced with additions such as iris, tuberose, orange blossom, and musk.
Upon obtaining these recipes, the ATRO fleet refined sandalwood and wealth-attracting trees harvested during their voyage into essential oils, replacing the original woody notes. "Wood attracts wealth, pine ensures safety," they believed. Later, symbols of good fortune like cedarwood, amber, and tortoiseshell were added to the blends, serving as talismans to navigate the uncertainties of their explorations.
In the 19th century, the Indian Ocean witnessed rare snowfall and frost. The ATRO fleet recorded moments when the sandalwood on their decks was dusted with blue-white frost, glowing amidst the snowy mist. The fusion of the guzheng and Celtic flute, tuberose and cedarwood, iris and benzoin, treasures and vases, the East India Company and Western fleets, the Peacock Throne and the Koh-i-Noor diamond—all these elements intertwined, transforming into wisps of fragrance that drifted across the ancient, frost-covered ocean, carrying the golden glow of sandalwood into the unknown.

11th November, frost crystallized on the decks of ships sailing the Indian Ocean. Emerald-green icebergs brushed past the floral scents beneath the masts, a fleeting encounter of ice and bloom.

Tuberose and snow lotus intertwine like the brilliance of the Koh-i-Noor diamond, while the Peacock Throne is encased in icy jade, translucent and smooth.

PRECIOUS INGREDIENT
**Tibetan Iris Flower Essential Oil**
Specially infused with iris essential oil sourced from altitudes of 3,000 meters. The iris roots are sliced and air-dried for over two years, then distilled and extracted to produce iris concrete. It takes 24 kilograms of iris and two years of processing to yield just 1 kilogram of iris concrete. Hidden high in the mountains, the pristine iris exudes a dreamlike fragrance that emerges from the snow, drifting like a mirage into the golden sandalwood.
**Central American Tuberose Essential Oil**
Specially infused with the exceptionally rare tuberose essential oil. It takes 1,600 kilograms of tuberose buds to extract just 1 kilogram of tuberose essential oil. This mysterious floral scent, born under the moonlight, transforms into a rich, pseudo- natural body fragrance combined with the lily. It adds its finishing touch to the blend of other floral essences in the frost- kissed golden sandalwood, bringing a soft, moonlit elegance to the ancient frost.
**Timor Sandalwood Essential Oil**
A deep, rich woody fragrance, sourced from the "TIMOR" sandalwood of East Timor, renowned as the "King of Spices." Extracted through hydro-distillation from the heartwood of sandalwood trees aged over 20 years, it takes 20 kilograms of sandalwood to yield just 1 kilogram of essential oil. The aging process gradually intensifies the natural compounds in the golden sandalwood fragrance, making it more distinctive and ensuring a long-lasting base note.
