    Shadow Pictures

    Parchment and hay absolute with black pepper, smoked oud, frankincense, vetiver, and patchouli.

    Let America Be America Again

    O, let America be America again – the land that never has been yet: waving green grasses, purple-hued amber, smoked sandalwood, bay rum, clove bud, cardamom, and black pepper.
  3. Cupcakes are to kids what catnip is to cats: red velvet cupcakes, buttercream, vanilla bean, and coconut cream.
  4. This was mentioned in the Dirty South Lunacy back in 2015. And speculated that the released version may be Insects. This one does have patchouli, it has a very purple vibe, but there's a floral freshness to it. The patchouli is there to give darkness and glimmer in shadows. Overall, the top notes are a purple floral (perhaps even phlox), mayhaps violet. It is lighter and airier than Insects, and more along the lines of what you think a moth/butterfly blend would be, whereas Insects was a harder, grittier patchouli blend. In this it makes me think more Black Moths than Insects. Although I don't smell roses in this blend. It actually reminds me more to the atmosphere Lucille Sharpe, if Lucille Sharpe was to turn into a winged insect.

    Night

    Where we're going, or what we're leaving behind: raw cacao, bourbon vetiver, red benzoin, opoponax, tobacco absolute, queen of the night, tuberose, and inky musk.

    Bloody Corridor

    Due to a sanguinous slip up, a batch of our Endless Corridors ended up a little… bloody. A flicker of beeswax and candle smoke casting distorted shadows on a blackened panel of vetiver that has been splattered with red musk.

    High-Pitched Shriek

    Furious, frantic, fainting fandom: sugar blossom, lemon peel, candied strawberry juice, and marshmallow root squirted through a sheer white musk.

    Strawberry Dragon

    Candied strawberries and pink pepper. Fresh sugary strawberry candy. I really get no pink pepper from this. It reminds me to Strawberry Moon 2009. Sadly, strawberry does not last longer than about an hour on me. Medium throw, low wear length.
  10. White tea, rice milk, and coconut husk.

    Honey Taffy Smut

    Easily my favorite of the bunch.
  12. Sultry amber musk, crushed violets, red currant, wild peony, plum blossom, and carnation.

    Daddy by Effy Beard Oil

    The scent is the same! A roll in the hay with a sexy demon daddy: a diabolical incense with a splash of bay rum and a hiss of infernal fougere.

    Faster Kittycat?

    A sudden sophistication: a sheer white chypre with cashmere amber, orris butter, and patchouli.
  15. "In doubtful things, liberty." A perfume that celebrates civil rights, true justice, and freedom from authoritarianism: golden amber, smoked vanilla, benzoin, and blue cypress.

    Discarded Sandal

    Beeswax, hinoki wood, Japanese black pine, juniper, tolu balsam, and muguet.
  17. Vanilla husk, vanilla sandalwood, copal, and patchouli.
  18. An inner darkness: ink-black vegetal musk, opoponax, velvet myrrh, nagarmotha, black champa, labdanum, and plum honey.

    Impromptu Goat Yoga

    Goat’s milk, lavender buds, white tea, and marshmallow musk.

    Gnome Ruckus

    RPG night junk food: popcorn, red vines, and cream soda.

    A-Rovin'

    A perfume for mistresses and masters of a very specific trade: sultry red musk, heady jasmine, tobacco leaf, red sandalwood, hay sugar, golden honey, sweet carnations, and warm leather.
