Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about our creations, your order and the Ritual of Return.

Orders and Delivery
Where do you ship from, and how soon will my order be dispatched?

Every order is dispatched from the Gold Coast, Queensland, Australia. In-stock orders are processed within 1 to 3 business days of payment confirmation. Orders placed on weekends or public holidays are processed on the next business day.

Why might my order take up to 19 days to dispatch?

Our creations are handcrafted in limited batches. If the current batch has been allocated, please allow up to 19 days before dispatch, as the Sidr is infused for 19 days to honour the integrity of each formulation. We will never rush what is made with reverence.

How long does delivery take once my order is dispatched?

Within Australia, standard delivery with Australia Post takes approximately 2 to 7 business days after dispatch, and express delivery is also available. For international orders, please allow approximately 10 to 21 business days after dispatch, depending on destination and customs clearance. Shipping Policy

Our Creations
What are your creations made from?

Each creation is composed of organic Sidr, ancient botanicals, sacred resins, mineral salts and premium foundation oils, ethically sourced locally and internationally. Our creations are vegan and cruelty-free, and the full ingredient list is shown on every product page.

Are your creations vegan and cruelty-free?

Yes. Every creation in the N° 99 Collection is vegan and cruelty-free, of 100% pure botanical, herbal and mineral origin, and handcrafted in limited batches in Australia.

What is the House of Excelsior Signature Accord?

Sidr, Frankincense, Myrrh and Damask Rose: the Tree of Paradise, the Noble Resins and the Queen of Flowers. Together they form the sacred aromatic thread carried through every creation in the collection. Discover the Signature Accord

What are the nineteen ancient botanicals?

At the heart of the N° 99 Collection is a proprietary harmony of nineteen rare and ancient botanicals, anchored by Sidr. Each is chosen for its traditional heritage, sacred symbolism and ceremonial significance, and organised through ritual purpose into the Ritual Families. Explore the Sacred Botanical Intelligence

What is Sidr?

Sidr, the Lote Tree of Paradise, has been honoured for over 3,000 years as a sacred guardian of purification, protection and blessing. It is the sacred seal of every House of Excelsior creation. Discover Sidr

What is the difference between Divine Elixir and Divine Attar?

Divine Elixir N° 99 is the anointing and body oil of the collection, 50 ml, founded on certified organic Black Seed Oil and Mediterranean Olive Oil, for the body, the hair and the soles of the feet. Divine Attar N° 99 is a concentrated extrait de parfum perfume oil, 30 ml, carrying the Signature Accord crowned with Oud and Saffron, for the pulse points. Worn together, they form the Sacred Duo.

How do I use Divine Elixir N° 99?

Shake gently before each ritual. Anoint the pulse points with intention, apply to the body after bathing, or massage into the soles of the feet before sleep. Use sparingly on the lengths and ends of the hair. Avoid the face and eye area. The Ritual of Return Guide

How do I wear Divine Attar N° 99?

Apply a single touch to the pulse points only: the wrists, behind the ears and the base of the throat. As an oil, it stays close to the skin and unfolds slowly with your own warmth. Divine Attar N° 99

How do I use Divine Sanctuary N° 99?

Mist lightly into the air and around doorways. One to three sprays is all that is needed to transform a room, whether at home, in the office, in the car or while travelling. Never spray near or toward a burning candle or flame, and patch test first if misting near linens, upholstery, leather or delicate surfaces. Divine Sanctuary N° 99

How do I prepare Divine Infusion N° 99?

Infuse 1 teaspoon in 1 litre of freshly boiled water for up to 30 minutes. The first cup is best taken in the morning, and you may enjoy up to 4 cups daily. Each 250 g pouch offers around 120 ritual infusions, and it is naturally caffeine-free. Please do not use if you are allergic to plants in the Asteraceae family, such as chamomile, calendula or yarrow. Divine Infusion N° 99

How do I use Divine Bath N° 99?

Add generously to warm bath water and immerse for up to 30 minutes as an intentional weekly reset. It may also be used as a hand or foot immersion. Within the 40-Day Inside-Out Renewal Protocol™, combine it with 1 litre of prepared Divine Infusion N° 99 in the bath. Take care entering and leaving the bath, as mineral salts may make surfaces slippery. Divine Bath N° 99

Which creations are alcohol-free?

Divine Elixir N° 99 and Divine Attar N° 99 are alcohol-free and preservative-free. Divine Sanctuary N° 99 is a concentrated interior perfume: its vibrant green Sidr infusion is prepared in perfumer's alcohol and united with nine sacred botanical oils, and it is created to be misted into the air and the space around you, not onto the skin.

How long will my creations last once opened?

Divine Elixir, Divine Attar, Divine Bath and Divine Sanctuary are best used within 6 months of opening, and Divine Infusion within 12 months. Store each creation sealed, in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, and never leave Divine Sanctuary in a hot vehicle.

Is there anything I should know before use?

Our creations are for external use only. We recommend a patch test before full use. Do not use on broken or irritated skin, and discontinue use if irritation occurs. If you are pregnant or nursing, have known allergies or a medical condition, please consult a healthcare professional before use.
