BPAL Madness!

Recommended Posts

Foweles in þe frith
þe fisses in þe flod
And I mon waxe wod
sulch sorw I walke with
for beste of bon and blod
– 13th century song, anonymous

Birds in the wood and in the space between woods, fishes in the flowing waters, I feel I must go mad from mourning because I journey with such sorrow for the beasts of bone and blood. Gnarled boughs of white oak, sweet chestnut, hazel, and holly, blood-red rowan berries, spikes of blackthorn, a scattering of melancholy lilac petals, cade, and crushed lily of the valley.

I can't explain it, but something about this is reminding me of a department store. Upon application, the woody notes are strongest, but the berries quickly come out. There's a sweetness that I'm guessing comes from the chestnut? I'm not getting much floral at any point, but I think I can tell it's there, supporting the scent in the background. Probably not a FB, but I'm glad I got a decant.
