The Dark Side of Fire: cinnamon, bitter almond, and neroli. Heavily spiced, torrid, and possibly conflagrant.
I grieve and dare not show my discontent,
I love and yet am forced to seem to hate,
I do, yet dare not say I ever meant,
I seem stark mute but inwardly do prate.
I am and not, I freeze and yet am burned,
Since from myself another self I turned.
My care is like my shadow in the sun,
Follows me flying, flies when I pursue it,
Stands and lies by me, doth what I have done.
His too familiar care doth make me rue it.
No means I find to rid him from my breast,
Till by the end of things it be supprest.
Some gentler passion slide into my mind,
For I am soft and made of melting snow;
Or be more cruel, love, and so be kind.
Let me or float or sink, be high or low.
Or let me live with some more sweet content,
Or die and so forget what love ere meant.
Inspired by the tragic, ill-fated love of Queen Elizabeth I and the Earl of Leicester. This is our modernization of a 17th-century perfume blend favored by British aristocracy: rosemary, orange flower, grape spirit, five rose variants, lemon peel, and mint.
True, perfect golden light, refined into an incomparably glorious scent.
Lush, creamy vanilla and the honey of the sweetest kiss smeared with the vital throb of husky clove, swollen red cherries, but darkened with the vampiric sensuality of vetiver, soporific poppy and blood red wine, and a skin-light pulse of feral musk.

I was really looking forward to this scent, because the description is actually one of my favorite drinks. And it smelled really nice when wet. It was dark, dry, and the mint was nice and cool. Unfortunately, it dried down to straight baby powder.

The mint is more apparent in this one when it is wet, but is wonderfully hinted at when dry. The sugar and bourbon are nice when it dries also. Its dark, very warm. I just haven’t figured out when or where to wear this one…

I don’t know why, but Juke Joint reminds me of some cute old lady that kept her baby powder jar next to her perfume bottle for many many years.
Now the baby powder will forever possess some of the perfume scent.
It’s not bad, just not something I would wear.
