Murray, Lanman & Kemp Peru Collection • Officially Distributed in the UK by Sacred Essence

Experience the full aromatic and ceremonial character of the Lanman Peru ritual-water collection with this set of four traditional spiritual colognes.

Bringing together Agua de Florida, Palo Santo, Kananga and Rosas, the collection moves through four distinct fragrance moods: bright cleansing, deep purification, grounding protection and gentle harmony.

Each water may be worn as a traditional splash cologne or used within personal, altar and ceremonial practice. The bottles can also be decanted into separate glass atomisers for a finer room, altar or symbolic aura mist.

Glass atomiser bottles are sold separately.

Produced in Peru within the Murray, Lanman & Kemp tradition, these aromatic waters are used by some Q’ero Paqos, Andean practitioners, Amazonian healers, curanderos and contemporary spiritual households.

Together, they form a versatile ritual collection while remaining distinctive heritage colognes in their own right.

What Is Included in the Peru Spirit Water Collection?

This set brings together four of Lanman Peru’s best-known aromatic ritual waters.

Each bottle carries a different fragrance profile and symbolic purpose, allowing the collection to be used according to mood, intention or ceremonial setting.

The four waters may be understood as a simple sequence:

Florida — Cleanse and refresh
Kananga — Deepen and transform
Palo Santo — Ground and protect
Rosas — Soften and harmonise

They may be used individually or selected as part of a wider personal ritual.

Agua de Florida — The Shaman’s Cleanse

Peru Agua de Florida is the brightest and most widely recognised cologne in the collection.

Its crisp citrus-floral fragrance opens with lively freshness before settling into soft floral and warm spice notes.

It is traditionally associated with:

  • general spiritual cleansing
  • altar and mesa preparation
  • opening or closing ritual space
  • symbolic aura cleansing
  • prayer and blessing
  • refreshing the atmosphere after demanding work

Within some Andean traditions, heavy or dense energy may be described as hucha. Florida Water may be used symbolically within practices intended to clear or transform this heaviness.

It may also be worn simply as a refreshing heritage cologne.

Agua de Kananga — Deep Floral Purification

Peru Agua de Kananga carries a deeper and more enveloping floral character.

Its fragrance centres on cananga and ylang-ylang, with warm orange-blossom-like notes and a softly woody finish.

It is traditionally associated with:

  • deeper cleansing work
  • grounding after ceremony
  • clearing what practitioners understand as stagnant energy
  • closing intense ritual practice
  • altar and room cleansing
  • contemplative spiritual work

In some Amazonian and jungle traditions, Kananga Water has also been associated with specialist energetic extraction practices.

These methods belong to specific cultural and ceremonial systems and should not be attempted without direct training and experienced supervision.

For modern personal use, Kananga Water is more appropriately used as a cologne, room mist, altar water or symbolic aura spray.

Agua de Palo Santo — Sacred Wood Protection

Peru Agua de Palo Santo has a warm, resinous and woodsy fragrance with gentle citrus brightness.

Inspired by Bursera graveolens, traditionally known as Palo Santo or “Holy Wood,” it carries a steady aromatic character suited to grounding and sacred-space preparation.

It is traditionally associated with:

  • spiritual protection
  • symbolic space clearing
  • altar and mesa blessing
  • meditation preparation
  • grounding before or after ritual
  • cleansing suitable ritual tools and objects

Palo Santo Water offers a smoke-free way to bring the fragrance of sacred wood into a room or personal practice.

It is not the same as burning Palo Santo wood and should never be heated or used in an oil burner.

Agua de Rosas — Love and Harmony

Peru Agua de Rosas is the softest and most heart-centred water in the collection.

Its rich rose fragrance feels warm, floral and embracing, making it especially suited to gentler rituals, evening use and restorative practice.

It is traditionally associated with:

  • love and harmony
  • emotional softening
  • heart-centred meditation
  • blessing and devotion
  • restoring calm after deeper cleansing work
  • relationship and self-love rituals
  • harmonising a room or altar

In some Andean and Amazonian practices, rose cologne may be used after stronger ceremonial work as part of a symbolic return to gentleness and emotional balance.

What Do the Four Spirit Waters Smell Like?

Each water carries a distinct aromatic personality.

Florida Water

Bright, citrus-led and uplifting, with soft floral and warm spice notes.

Kananga Water

Deep, warm and floral, with cananga, ylang-ylang and orange-blossom-like character.

Palo Santo Water

Woodsy, resinous and grounding, with soft citrus and green freshness.

Agua de Rosas

Rich rose, gentle floral sweetness and a smooth, comforting finish.

Together, the set moves from fresh citrus through deep florals and sacred woods to soft rose.

Fragrance is subjective, and individual impressions may vary.

What Are Peruvian Spirit Waters Used For?

The collection may be used for:

  • traditional personal fragrance
  • altar and room misting
  • symbolic aura cleansing
  • meditation and prayer
  • ceremonial preparation
  • ritual opening and closing
  • blessing suitable tools and spaces
  • grounding after demanding environments
  • love and harmony rituals
  • spiritual and symbolic cleansing

Each water may be used directly from its supplied bottle or decanted into a separate glass atomiser for a finer mist.

How Do You Use the Collection?

As Traditional Splash Colognes

Pour a small amount into the hands and apply sparingly to suitable pulse points.

Patch test each fragrance before wider skin use.

Avoid broken, irritated or recently shaved skin.

Decanted into Glass Atomisers

Each water may be poured into its own clean glass atomiser.

This allows the fragrance to be misted lightly through a room, around an altar or into the air surrounding the body.

Glass atomiser bottles are sold separately.

Always label each decanted bottle clearly and do not mix the waters together unless your own practice specifically calls for it.

As Room or Altar Mists

Mist lightly into the air rather than saturating the space.

Use in a well-ventilated room and keep away from flames, candles, incense, sparks, heat, electrical equipment, delicate fabrics, children and pets.

For Ritual or Aura Cleansing

Mist lightly into the air around the body or ritual area.

Do not spray directly onto the face, eyes, mouth or another person without their knowledge and consent.

On Ritual Objects or Surfaces

Apply to a cloth first and test in an inconspicuous area.

The alcohol base may affect painted, varnished, polished, plastic, leather or delicate surfaces.

A Simple Four-Water Ritual Sequence

The collection may be used as a symbolic progression through cleansing, grounding and restoration.

Cleanse with Florida Water

Begin with the bright citrus-floral character of Florida Water to refresh the room, altar or personal space.

Deepen with Kananga

Use Kananga when a warmer, more contemplative and deeply floral atmosphere is desired.

Ground with Palo Santo

Bring in Palo Santo for a steady wood fragrance associated with protection and sacred-space preparation.

Harmonise with Rosas

Close with Agua de Rosas to create a softer, heart-centred and restorative finish.

A simple sequence may be:

Cleanse → Deepen → Ground → Harmonise

Each water may also be used independently.

Peru and USA Collections — What Is the Difference?

Peru and USA-produced Lanman ritual waters should be treated as separate collections rather than assumed to be identical.

The Peruvian waters are closely associated with South American ceremonial use and often carry deeper, more traditional fragrance profiles.

The USA versions are generally presented as lighter botanical colognes suited to daily fragrance and contemporary spiritual use.

In simple terms:

Peru: Traditional ceremonial depth
USA: Brighter botanical interpretation

Both are authentic Lanman products, but they may differ in:

  • bottle size
  • country of production
  • packaging
  • liquid colour
  • fragrance strength
  • formulation
  • alcohol content
  • aromatic character

This listing is specifically for the four-bottle Lanman Peru collection.

Andean, Amazonian and Shamanic Context

These ritual waters are used by some Q’ero Paqos, Andean ceremonial practitioners, Amazonian healers, curanderos and shamans.

Their exact use varies between communities, lineages and individual practitioners.

Traditional applications may include:

  • preparing a person or ceremonial space
  • cleansing altars, mesas and ritual tools
  • symbolic aura cleansing
  • prayer, blessing and protection
  • opening and closing spiritual work
  • grounding after intense practice
  • restoring softness and emotional balance

Some specialist methods, including ceremonial blowing, extraction work or direct work on another person’s energetic field, belong to specific living traditions.

They should be learned directly and respectfully from trained practitioners rather than copied from written instructions.

References to spiritual cleansing, protection, hucha, energetic extraction, grounding or heart alignment reflect traditional and personal beliefs rather than medically or scientifically established effects.
