WHIRLING WIND MOON
Swiftly walk o'er the western wave,
Spirit of Night!
Out of the misty eastern cave,
Where, all the long and lone daylight,
Thou wovest dreams of joy and fear,
'Which make thee terrible and dear, —
Swift be thy flight!

Dreams of joy and fear: swirling dark and airy musks, mogra, plumeria, hyacinth, lily of the valley, dry white sandalwood, raw white ginger, gardenia, pale amber, and oakmoss.


Really? Nobody has reviewed this? Or have they been reviewing it on the previous year incarnation? Mods feel free to whoosh

Not nearly as floral as it sounded more's the pity. Or musky or anything. How does Beth & Co manage to surprise me time and time again with unexpected loveliness? It feels cool, like a man's cologne ~ bracing almost. And there is movement to it as well. When I put it on today I was sad until I went outside and the chill in the air combined with this was just so perfect and crisp. Not my style at all because well I was hoping for floral and musks and I cannot get any of the listed notes out of this at all. MAYBE ginger and oak moss. It does have that aquatic feel that Spanish Moss SN has~ not a floral not herbacious but wet and sultry. Only crisp instead of steamy.

I also get cucumber from this. That happens a lot with mossy and or aquatics so shrugs. I am the worst person for reviewing this kind of scent since it is out of my realm of what I wear.

Lily, ginger, hints of oakmoss and plumeria. This was lighter, and more wearable than I imagined. I think the previous Whirling Wind Moon ended up more in the masculine territory and this is definitely more femme.

It's a "dark" floral, airy and very crisp.

I only had a couple drops of this to test, but it pretty much instantly turns to soap on my skin. A light, floral soap.
