++ ARS ANNI: COME, YE RAINS, THEN IF YE WILL

There is May in books forever;

May will part from Spenser never;

May's in Milton, May's in Prior,

May's in Chaucer, Thomson, Dyer;

May's in all the Italian books:—

She has old and modern nooks,

Where she sleeps with nymphs and elves,

In happy places they call shelves,

And will rise and dress your rooms

With a drapery thick with blooms.

Come, ye rains, then if ye will,

May's at home, and with me still;

But come rather, thou, good weather,

And find us in the fields together.

 

–James Henry Leigh Hunt

 

✤ CHIMÈRES

Pascal Dagnan-Bouveret

Scarlet velvet, Byzantine amber, smoked Bulgarian rose absolute, and frankincense resin.

 

✤ PARIS BEING ADMITTED TO THE BEDCHAMBER OF HELEN

Jacob de Backer

Creamy, narcotic tuberose, a flutter of pink silk, and blushing sweet pea warmed by honeyed skin musk.

++ TWILIGHT ALCHEMY LAB
Each month in 2026, we will be offering a condition oil from our sister shop, Twilight Alchemy Lab, that is relevant to the thematic weather. While these oils can be used as perfumes, they are intended for ritual use.

 

Please note: these oils may contain plant materia, resins, and other floaty bits.

 

✤ WORTCUNNING

An oil for cultivating plant knowledge, green witchery, and deepening relationships with and understanding of plant materia. This oil sharpens plant communication, deepens your relationships with the green ones in your care, and to honor the long lineage of people who passed this knowledge forward through dark centuries so that it could arrive in your hands.

 

Anoint your hands before harvesting, wear it when you study your materia medica, anoint your ritual tools when communicating with earth spirits. 

Contains: frankincense, hyssop, mitti attar, clary sage, milky oats, comfrey, oakmoss, patchouli, and hay absolute.
 

++ AT THE ROOT
Over time the word “radical” has been turned into a political swear word that signifies dangerous levels of extremism, and its etymology hints at why: the word borrows from Latin’s radic- or radix, meaning “root.”

 

So when someone is accused of involvement in “radical politics”, on the face of it this means their goal is transforming society from the ground up, shaking loose all that is deeply and wrongly entrenched so that something else may grow in its place.

 

Not everyone has the stomach for such upheaval, or the heart to understand why it is needed, or faith in whatever comes after. And not all radicals are good, or wish good for all. But radicalism is not, by definition, a destructive ideology; every garden has areas that must be weeded, pruned, and repurposed in order to be fruitful, according to the season and the gardener’s design.

 

This year we’re reclaiming the original, literal spirit of radicalism with a monthly limited edition perfume release that will raise funds for organizations which are defending basic human rights – a mission that should not seem “radical,” but… well, here we are.

 

And of course, the scents themselves will incorporate essences from the rootiest components we have on hand, to produce a series of grounding and inspiring perfume oils lending stability to thought, clarity to purpose, and stubbornness to cause.

✤ ROSE ROOT
Roses have been woven into magic and folklore for thousands of years, and this oil reaches past the lovely sweetness of petal and hip. In addition to the rose’s association with love and romance, the rose's spiritual depths encompass blood, rebirth, resurrection, and immortality. The root carries all of this in concentrated silence: love that is not fragile, love that has come back from the frost, love that grew itself back from the cold, shadowed death of winter.

The rose is an emblem of Venus, deeply associated with love, passion, and friendship across cultures, but she is also sacred to Aphrodite, Isis, Hekate, Inanna, Ishtar — goddesses of the underworld as much as the bloom. She lives at the crossroads of beauty and power, and her thorns and roots have always been part of its power.

An earthy, patchouli-touched rose oil with a hint of oakmoss and vetiver.
 

Proceeds from this 5ml perfume oil will be donated to Juntos, a “community-led, Latine immigrant organization in South Philadelphia fighting for our human rights as workers, parents, youth, and immigrants.”
