Limited Edition Halloween Perfume

Halloween perfume

Witching Hour, 5ml Limited Edition

HALLOWEEN LIMITED EDITION PERFUME BLEND
Limited Edition of 20. Packaged for gift giving.
A highly complex blend which transports to another time and place…

WITCHING HOUR: This one was a long time coming, but after much experimentation, the aroma of the Halloween celebrations in Salem, Massachusetts has been captured in a perfume oil.

At the onset, this blend will greet you with a strong burst of cinnamon. Don’t be fooled, however; this blend goes through many stages. The cinnamon gradually gives way to pumpkin, maple syrup, coriander, the potions emanating from a witches cauldron, cloves, spices, the faintest hint of rum. Finally a dark wind cast from the shade of a Magnolia tree falls over the story. In the background you might even catch a reminder of the fog from a Halloween fog machine.

Spicy, haunting, ghostly and PURE HALLOWEEN in a 5ml glass apothecary bottle. This limited edition will arrive in a black silk bag, boxed and wrapped in black tissue with the Witching Hour owl clock decal on the front. Perfect for gift-giving.

Blended into a skin-healthy base of grapeseed or jojoba oil, all artisan perfume oils are hand-blended in small batches, cruelty free, aromatically complex and long lasting. Your new perfume oil will be prepared in either a cobalt blue or amber 5ml glass apothecary bottle with a reducer cap, allowing for easy and controlled application.

Paper Thin: Self Portrait From Hypnagogia

Paper Thin, Self Portrait

“It is absolutely impossible for a subject to see or have insight into something while leaving itself out of the picture, so impossible that knowing and being are the most opposite of all spheres.” ~ Nietzsche

The above is a new portrait that I will be adding to my Hypnagogia series. Effects were created using in-camera distortion techniques. The Nietzche quote that I have included seems to sum up the idea of this image, as it is a representation of someone who is attempting to step outside of their own limited perception. Though ultimately, such a thing might require death of the physical body. The title came immediately, as I was thinking of how fragile the self is…and life in general.
