Dance of Death Perfume Oil
Select Options This product has multiple variants. The options may be chosen on the product pageCarrying bouquet, and handkerchief, and gloves,
Proud of her height as when she lived, she moves
With all the careless and high-stepping grace,
And the extravagant courtesan’s thin face.Was slimmer waist e’er in a ball-room wooed?
Her floating robe, in royal amplitude,
Falls in deep folds around a dry foot, shod
With a bright flower-like shoe that gems the sod.The swarms that hum about her collar-bones
As the lascivious streams caress the stones,
Conceal from every scornful jest that flies,
Her gloomy beauty; and her fathomless eyesAre made of shade and void; with flowery sprays
Her skull is wreathed artistically, and sways,
Feeble and weak, on her frail vertebrae.
O charm of nothing decked in folly! theyWho laugh and name you a Caricature,
They see not, they whom flesh and blood allure,
The nameless grace of every bleached, bare bone,
That is most dear to me, tall skeleton!Come you to trouble with your potent sneer
The feast of Life! or are you driven here,
To Pleasure’s Sabbath, by dead lusts that stir
And goad your moving corpse on with a spur?Or do you hope, when sing the violins,
And the pale candle-flame lights up our sins,
To drive some mocking nightmare far apart,
And cool the flame hell lighted in your heart?Fathomless well of fault and foolishness!
Eternal alembic of antique distress!
Still o’er the curved, white trellis of your sides
The sateless, wandering serpent curls and glides.And truth to tell, I fear lest you should find,
Among us here, no lover to your mind;
Which of these hearts beat for the smile you gave?
The charms of horror please none but the brave.Your eyes’ black gulf, where awful broodings stir,
Brings giddiness; the prudent reveller
Sees, while a horror grips him from beneath,
The eternal smile of thirty-two white teeth.For he who has not folded in his arms
A skeleton, nor fed on graveyard charms,
Recks not of furbelow, or paint, or scent,
When Horror comes the way that Beauty went.O irresistible, with fleshless face,
Say to these dancers in their dazzled race:
“Proud lovers with the paint above your bones,
Ye shall taste death, musk scented skeletons!Withered Antinoüs, dandies with plump faces,
Ye varnished cadavers, and grey Lovelaces,
Ye go to lands unknown and void of breath,
Drawn by the rumour of the Dance of Death.From Seine’s cold quays to Ganges’ burning stream,
The mortal troupes dance onward in a dream;
They do not see, within the opened sky,
The Angel’s sinister trumpet raised on high.In every clime and under every sun,
Death laughs at ye, mad mortals, as ye run;
And oft perfumes herself with myrrh, like ye
And mingles with your madness, irony!A gloriously elegant representation of Lady Death. Dry, bone-white orris, black musk, serpentine patchouli and our murkiest myrrh.

Swells hissing from beneath,
The water of your mouth, elate,
Rises between your teeth —It seems some old Bohemian vintage
Triumphant, fierce, and tart,
A liquid heaven that showers a mintage
Of stars across my heart.A sinister, darkly seductive scent inspired by poetry of Charles Baudelaire. Violet entwined with vanilla and gardenia.

I’d say lilac is the dominant scent here but it is balanced by the rose and wisteria. Not bad at all, but it’s very straightforwardly floral. If that’s what you’re looking for it’s a great choice!

I’ve loved and lost this one. After misplacing it for 13 years, I found it today, and I’m astounded by the quality of the ingredients. It has not turned old at all, as cheap fragrance components so often will (even if the buyer’s cost is quite high [looking at you, Hermès]). I’m thrilled to have this glorious homage to Baudelaire back on my knuckles. It’s as subtle or decadent as the wearer wishes, depending on the amount applied, and it has a clean element that reminds me of the Sonoran desert after a long-awaited thunderstorm (with the scent of lightning included). It’s a gorgeous, masterful composition. Thank you so much for making it.

Les Fleurs Du Mal (Ars Moriendi series)
The flower power balsam! I think this is called “heady floral”: thick, full body fragrance, saturated, you you literally need a tiny drop. Powdery but humble, not too peculiar, a smell of fashion and status. You can never go wrong with it, its like your little black dress in the perfume world. I closed my eyes and tried to identify what flowers it’s composed of, without reading a description…..so……blindly I could tell all flowers are balanced, not a single one stands out more then others. Rose, tubetose, violet. Crimson-purple colour…. should not be too complex or change on your skin much. ….I was almost right! It has rose, lilac and westeria. Red and purple! My nose wasn’t too bad. It’s not a complex scent indeed, with only three components it smells like good classics. How old is this scent? 35-40, in full blossom of femininity! It’s not too sweet, not dark, not seductive, as a well-mannered lady should be. It’s here to last all day long. It is a good universal perfume. I am keeping it for some formal fancy event, when my hippy/witchy/gothic/clumsy self will actually put an effort to look polished. Something that I’ve never been able to achieve so far.
…wait a second… Baudelaire again? Symbolism and decadence? Oooohhh yeah. It does give off some sibtle decadent hint. As if that polished lady has a trouble or a dark secret. Aren’t we all? I should take my words back – the “mal” comes out after 40 min-1h. It’s not too formal and basic after all. It’s more real after you get to know it better. Aren’t we all?

I love love LOVE this sensual floral! To me it is what Creed’s Spring Flowers should have been if it did not go all sour on me. It is sexy, not girly or grandmother like, and it does not go powdery on me like other BPAL roses. The lilac and wisteria complement the rose gorgeously and do not get to sweet. A big bottle or two is definitely in my future!

In the bottle: The wisteria comes out first. Then the lilac and the rose come forward on the deep inhale. I knew I would love this blend based off its components. I was right. I can identify each of the florals, but neither one is overpowering the others.
wet on skin: Everything blends beautifully. The rose and wisteria feel like they are on either end of a breath and the lilac ties them together in the middle. This is so very floral yet gentle. Not a single one of the notes overpowers the others. This is surprising because all three are strong scents by themselves. I’m really liking this one.
worn 30+ mins: the lilac is really mellow and soft and the rose is blending more with the wisteria. I love it, my friend says it smells like clean laundry.
3+ hours: All that remains in the forefront is a really mellow, faded wisteria. The rose is still gentle and smooth, the lilac is slightly sweetened. This is one of my more favorite floral scents. It is lovely. It brings to mind ballroom dresses and waltzes in a beautiful twilight garden.

A strong, heady floral. The rose isn’t singular on me – it blends well with the lilac and wisteria. I like the melancholy of it, but it’s such a heady floral that I probably wouldn’t buy a full size. I will keep my imp though.

I’m not sure I’m 100% sold on this one. I like that it isn’t powdery as some floral scents can come across as. I’m not sure I could detect any rose, even when this one was dry.
Sara –
a whispery, delicate rose with a hint of lilac. wistful and romantic. it feels Victorian, like an old parlor full of lace and dried flowers.

I got this as an imp. the Lilac and Wisteria really balance each other well with just that little hint of dirtiness from the rose in the background. It is a really nice scent
