Silvertree

Red Rose lives again! I have hoped and dreamed that one of my all-time favorite scents would reappear, and here she is: radiant, glowing, in full bloom. Fresh out of the bottle Red Rose is a warm, spicy, sexy floral with a fresh, foresty overtone. I just sprayed myself liberally, so I will update as it dries down!

Two new Lupercalia scents to pay attention to:

The Serpent in the Lilacs (perfume): Spring’s first lilac branches dunked in 3-year aged Snake Oil.
Diver Combing her Hair (hair gloss): Salt-dusted lilac and lavender petals splashed by sea water.

Brian said over on FB that "Lupers, Shunga, Pink, Flower Moon (and the lunacy friends), and Dragon Con, Sept 4th".



Il n'a su réchauffer ce cadavre hébété
Où coule au lieu de sang l'eau verte du Léthé

Sister to Strife and dark reflection of Mnemosyne, she is the personification of forgetfulness and withdrawal from the cares of the living.

The cool, green waters of oblivion whose murmuring waves lull the dead to sleep:chthonic river foam,

bog cypress, lavender resin, black labdanum, and asphodel.

A seductive and deceptively delicate blend of rose-tinted white sandalwood, ethereal white amber,

voluptuous almond blossom, coeur de jasmin, and a gasp of bourbon vanilla.

Orris root and white sandalwood, amber silk, Oman frankincense, pine needles, and velvet mosses.

Vanilla cream, sugared-dusted buttercream, red benzoin, sweet amber,

lotus root, frankincense resin, and polished hardwood.

A vision of wild grasses and ancient oaks, wild strawberries, Baltic amber, lily of the valley, black hellebore accord, twinflower petals, crushed heather, leaf sap, red currant, crab apples, and diaphanous, sheer lilac musk.

Silken cream musk, toasted marshmallow root, white satin,

a hint of rose, oakmoss fougere, and silvered, lacy vanilla frill.

Blue violet petals in a haze of orris root, coconut mist, ambergris,

white musk, oakmoss, tolu balsam, opium pod, and white patchouli.

Sacred frankincense suffused with black currant, lilac, and French lavender.

A flutter of quaking aspen, sun-dappled leaves, hollyhock, mist-pale amber,

rose de grasse, milky white musk, iris root, and skin musk.

This Lunar blend is soft with phlox, pink freesia, stargazer lily, tulip, daffodil, pink columbine,

delphinium, pink carnation, peony, and muscari, dusted with pink sugar and honey,

bourbon vanilla and a touch of the first strawberries of the season.

A scent for the Shadow Between the Hedgerows: hay absolute, red benzoin, clove bud,

brown sandalwood, balsam, hops, cardamom, German chamomile, and cacao ambrette.

A dolorous mélange of myrrh, crypt moss, soil, faded funereal incense,

pallid balsam, decaying parchment, and cracked leather.

Black leather, lightning-lit white musk, a splash of schmancy

Victorian fougere, and a snap of ozone.

Black leather, polished black patchouli and

blood-red vegetal musk, bakhoor oudh, tobacco absolute,

sacred frankincense, fossilized amber resin, and bittersweet cacao.

Aquamarine musk snarled in kelp, pine pitch, seafoam, Italian bergamot, and orchid.

Cardamom-infused whiskey, fig cream, honey, and marshmallow fluff.
