SNOW QUEEN: THE FOURTH STORY
Winter’s far from over, friends. Here are two tales delicately rendered in scent by Black Phoenix Trading Post to help wile away the long nights. Or don’t you speak the language of crows?
A rustle of black wings: sweet black patchouli and clove with black amber, agarwood, and gilded lilac.
GENTLY, GENTLY BATH OIL
A great, warm hug of relief: snow-dusted carnation and sweet clove.
THE LANGUAGE OF CROWS PERFUME
Terebinth resin crackling with amber and coarse black tobacco, a drop of cardamom husk, caramelized brown sugar, and smoky birch tar.
NOT SUCH AN AGREEABLE SEAT PERFUME
The discomforts of royalty: a pearl as large as a spinning wheel. Golden rose oudh and saffron swirling over opalescent orris root and a twinkle of translucent petals.
JOY AND FEAR PERFUME
A heart beating with anxiety and longing: rose musk, benzoin, and red sandalwood.
GALLOPING DREAMS ATMOSPHERE SPRAY
Lavender smoke and golden amber, rushing by like a shadow on the wall.
A GRATEFUL HEART HAIR GLOSS
A soft tea rose sandalwood, sweet with vanilla, golden honey, and sugar cane.
COURT CROWS HAIR GLOSS
A dignified appointment for worthy corvids. Golden mango, apple peel, and frankincense.
A SWEET SLEEP HAIR GLOSS
The pure, gentle dreams of the innocent: French lavender, white pear, white sandalwood, and Italian bergamot.
THE GILDED COACH HAIR GLOSS
Dried fruits, sweet cakes, and gingerbread nuts.
IT IS GOLD! IT IS GOLD! HAIR GLOSS
A lively bit of larceny: tinkling amber and well-worn boot leather ensnared by covetous, envy-green strands of mint and raw frankincense.
THE OLD ROBBER-WOMAN PERFUME OIL
Dust, rags, leather, and shining steel.
A WILD AND NAUGHTY GIRL PERFUME OIL
Clove, tobacco, sweet red patchouli, and chocolate.
I SUPPOSE YOU ARE A PRINCESS HAIR GLOSS
Sweet pea and sugar cane.
A ROBBER’S CASTLE ATMOSPHERE SPRAY
Smoke and gunpowder, leather and blackened daggers coated in a mixture of pitch and coal.
THE WOOD-PIGEONS HAIR GLOSS
Soft grey amber, white patchouli, and roasted nuts.
THE SNOW-COVERED PLAINS ATMOSPHERE SPRAY
Rolling mounds of snow blanketing dwarf birch, willow shrub, black crowberry, and moss campion.
THE WOLVES HOWLED, THE RAVENS SCREAMED PERFUME
Dark soil upturned by raking claws, a shiver of pine needles, glints of white frankincense, and a gleaming black rustle of lavender, cade, and opoponax.
THE SKY QUIVERED RED LIGHTS LIKE FLAMES OF FIRE HAIR GLOSS
Red musk, neroli, pink peppercorn, and orange blossom.
SEE HOW THEY FLASH PERFUME
Violet petals shimmering with lilac, wild plum, midnight blue musk, and lime rind.
