An Arabic term that refers to both the chirping of nocturnal insects and the ambient sound made by the chattering of demons. This is the original title of the feared Necronomicon, the Book of Dead Names, penned by the Mad Arab, Abdul Alhazred.
Nor is it to be thought that man is either the oldest or the last of earth’s masters, or that the common bulk of life and substances walks alone. The Old Ones were, the Old Ones are, and the Old Ones shall be. Not in the spaces we know, but between them, They walk serene and primal, undimensioned and to us unseen. Yog-Sothoth knows the gate. Yog-Sothoth is the gate. Yog-Sothoth is the key and guardian of the gate. Past, present, future, all are one in Yog-Sothoth. He knows where the Old Ones broke through of old, and where They shall break through again. He knows where They have trod earth’s fields, and where They still tread them, and why no one can behold Them as They tread. By Their smell can men sometimes know Them near, but of Their semblance can no man know, saving only in the features of those They have begotten on mankind; and of those are there many sorts, differing in likeness from man’s truest eidolon to that shape without sight or substance which is Them. They walk unseen and foul in lonely places where the Words have been spoken and the Rites howled through at their Seasons. The wind gibbers with Their voices, and the earth mutters with Their consciousness. They bend the forest and crush the city, yet may not forest or city behold the hand that smites. Kadath in the cold waste hath known Them, and what man knows Kadath? The ice desert of the South and the sunken isles of Ocean hold stones where Their seal is engraven, but who hath seen the deep frozen city or the sealed tower long garlanded with seaweed and barnacles? Great Cthulhu is Their cousin, yet can he spy Them only dimly. Iä! Shub-Niggurath! As a foulness shall ye know Them. Their hand is at your throats, yet ye see Them not; and Their habitation is even one with your guarded threshold. Yog-Sothoth is the key to the gate, whereby the spheres meet. Man rules now where They ruled once; They shall soon rule where man rules now. After summer is winter, and after winter summer. They wait patient and potent, for here shall They reign again.
A sinister, sinuous incense of summoning, a herald and paean to the Primordial Gods of Darkness, Chaos, Madness and Decay.
A sultry, exotic scent that inspires devious plotting and clandestine affairs. It is a scent painted in artifice, veiled in deceit, and slithering with whispered secrets. Black palm, with cocoa, fig and shadowy wooded notes.
“The Pretty Era”, France’s Golden Time: an age of beauty, innovation and peace in France that lasted from the 19th Century through the first World War and gave birth to the cabaret, the cancan, and the cinema as well as the Impressionist and Art Nouveau movements. Sweet opium, Lily of the Valley, vanilla, mandarin and red sandalwood.
The Plane of Joy, eternal reward for a lifetime of valor and glory. A place of eternal youth and beauty, strength and honor, music and revelry.
The warmth of amber, the puissance of white ginger and the clarity of verbena, with fresh green grass, lush sage and cleansing droplets of summer rain.

Wet, it smells like I had melted rich chocolate onto my skin, and as it dries it immediately shifts into being leather-heavy with a hint of patchouli and the cocoa in the very background. It smells amazing (my mom described it as a scent you would wear when you wanna get laid) but unfortunately doesn’t last on my skin, fading within a couple hours, and while it lasts it has no “throw” – you’d have to put your nose right against skin that it has been applied to and even then, it’s faint. Very pleasant and I do intend to keep trying it in different weather settings as I think more body heat will help the scent. Right now it’s rather cold in my area.

Mm chocolate. Seems almost to have a bit of cedar in there, but maybe that’s the flowers mixing with the leather. The incense is low, but I’m getting just a ping of bubblegum like I do with some incensey blends (can’t figure out what type of incense, unfortunately). All in all, it’s a pleasing scent, but not a bottle for me.
Where I’d wear this: Chocolate and camping

It’s goooood. The cocoa/chocolate burns off quickly, and it just leaves an earthy richness – I had to come back and read the notes (I’d ordered an imp). I couldn’t pick out the exact notes but it smells good on me.

Deep, dark, warm cocoa with a dusty, herbal bite. Tezcatlipoca has a richness to it that reminds me of good coffee beans or tobacco, that sort of earthy bite. It’s not sweet or foodie. It stays fairly close to the skin on me and last for a long time. I think it could be worn by either sex. One of my favorites.

Really nice chocolate note in the bottle – super deep and rich. On the dry down some resinous notes emerge, something musky, and then a hint of marigold and leather. This is a seriously complex blend on me. The dry ends up in a really different place than the wet. The cocoa is much less detectable, but it remains earthy and dark and really delightful.
