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
This is a fragrance for close, graceful presence rather than volume: the kind of scent that seems to move with the body, leaving a soft floral wake as you pass through a room. It suits an intimate setting where freshness and poise matter more than drama, with a polished, quietly expressive mood.
How to wear
Best worn in mild to warm weather, where its floral transparency and green facets can open without becoming heavy. Apply lightly to pulse points or clothing for a soft, elegant trail; as an extrait, a little goes a long way, and the musk-wood base will stay close with a gentle, lingering diffusion.
Who it’s for
For those who love floral perfumes with a vintage frame but a lighter, more modern touch: magnolia, violet leaf and galbanum give structure, while rose, champaca and musk keep it feminine and softly sensual. It will appeal to wearers who prefer airy, refined florals over sweet or dense compositions.

The nose
Eglija Vaitkevice. A self-taught Lithuanian-born perfumer with training partly in Grasse, Vaitkevice is known for building Exaltatum as a hands-on, artisanal house and personally crafting and hand-filling each fragrance. Her style leans poetic and textural, often translating places, memories and visual impressions into perfumes with a strong sense of atmosphere. With Divine Dancer, that approach becomes especially clear: the composition turns a visit to Kew Gardens and the image of magnolia trees after rain into a floral portrait that feels airy, luminous and carefully composed, balancing old-school elegance with a modern, fluid freshness.
Exaltatum’s story
Exaltatum is a London niche house built around beauty, history, art, nature and personal memory. Its perfumes are conceived as crafted objects rather than mass-market products, with an emphasis on exceptional materials, slow maturation and a distinctly intimate, story-led approach.
Divine Dancer’s concept
Divine Dancer was inspired by a May visit to Kew Gardens, where magnolia trees in bloom and the atmosphere of spring rain suggested a floral scent with a watery, translucent feel. The perfume is also a tribute to Ruth St. Denis, the pioneering American modern dancer whose stage presence, Eastern influences and radiant femininity shaped the fragrance’s image of the divine feminine.
Extra info
The name and imagery point directly to Ruth St. Denis, one of the early icons of American modern dance. The perfume was released in 2020 and remains in production as an extrait de parfum. Its concept links magnolia blossom, spring rain and stage presence into one floral portrait.
