Folk horror, but make it breakfast cereal: dehydrated pumpkin marshmallows and blackened cocoa corn puffs in sugared milk.

This is a strong hair gloss that can be smelled in both wet and dry hair (a feat!), but of course, it is strongest in dry hair. It's mostly the scent of stick incense from a metaphysical shop, that happens to have some wisteria-infused into it, backed by sandalwood and oakmoss (with the latter being more noticeable by the end of the day). The wisteria itself is not as strong as it is in Death Moon: Wisteria and White Musk. This is very much about the incense. And I'm not getting any creaminess from the sandalwood cream, but that's okay with me. I plan on hanging onto my decant of this one, but I prefer Death Moon: Wisteria and White Musk Hair gloss for my wisteria fix, so I don't need a bottle.

Beaver Moon: Graham Cracker & Buttercream Lotion
doomsday_disco replied to doomsday_disco's topic in Lotion
This smells like graham cracker crust and buttercream, but it also smells like there's some coconut infused into the buttercream. I received compliments on this one when I used it as a hand lotion in the office one day. It pairs perfectly with its moon and will go so well with many other gourmand scents. I'm surprised it's not getting more love. I'm happy I blind bottled it. -
The cherimoya note is the strongest note in this lotion, and it's the same one from Water Bearer. Sadly, I don't seem to appreciate it here, maybe because it's not paired with lavender? It's giving off a candy floral vibe that reminds me of SweeTarts smushed into a floral note -- I think it's the somewhat soapy lemon blossom note combining with it that's putting me off. I'm not able to pick out the green tea, berries, or sandalwood in this one. The lotion is strong and has good throw, so make sure you like it before you slather it on -- fortunately, I only applied it to the back of my hands. I'm glad that I opted for a sample pot, as this one is not for me.

Welcome my sweet daughter, my favorite, the King of Upper and Lower Egypt, Maatkare, Hatshepsut. Thou art the Pharaoh, taking possession of the Two Lands. Maatkare, the Good Goddess, Divine Daughter of Amun, sixth pharaoh of the Eighteenth Dynasty, androgynous queen regnant who wore the uraeus-crowned Khat, traditional false beard, and the shendyt and bore the double crown as Mother and Father of Egypt. She sent five ships to the Land of Punt and brought back thirty-one living myrrh trees, their roots balled in soil, to be planted at the terraced temple of Deir el-Bahari, the Djeser-Djeseru. Her scent is imperial and vibrant, seizing back her power from those who would erase her: myrrh trees crossing the Red Sea in the hold of a ship, the dark smoke of kyphi drifting through limestone colonnades, ground frankincense and kohl, warm sand and blue lotus incense, cedarwood from Byblos, the dry resinous breath of obelisk granite in the sun, and a base of black amber and sacred anointing oil.
