Patron of the Aztec pantheon, he is the personification of light within darkness, warmth in the cold, and life in, and after, death. He is a creative and destructive God of Fire and Light, and is appeased only by sacrifice, trial, and the slaughter of his people’s enemies. Copal, plumeria and sweet orange and the smoke of South American incense and crushed jungle blooms.

“It is only a gesture,” he said, turning back to Shadow. “But gestures mean everything. The death of one dog symbolizes the death of all dogs. Nine men they gave to me, but they stood for all the men, all the blood, all the power. It just wasn’t enough. One day, the blood stopped flowing. Belief without blood only takes us so far. The blood must flow.”
“I saw you die,” said Shadow.
“In the god business,” said the figure—and now Shadow was certain it was Wednesday, nobody else had that rasp, that deep cynical joy in words, “it’s not the death that matters. It’s the opportunity for resurrection. And when the blood flows . . .”
Three days on the tree, three days in the underworld, three days to find your way back: ash, oak, and elm; vetiver, dragon’s blood resin, and cypress; frankincense, copal, and chamomile.
Muscle ache relief. The combination of arnica, rosehip, evening primrose, almond oil, and apricot kernel oil is high in vitamin C and gamma-linolenic acid, and coupled with analgesic eucalyptus, invigorating orange, and refreshing rosemary, this blend is said to help heal bruises, reduce swelling, and soothe strained muscles and aching tendons.

Upon the next stage, a primitive cage has been erected. It is made of heavy, dark sticks bound with strips of deep brown leather. The stage is as dark as pitch, and from the shadows, you hear soft hissing, spitting, and an ominous chorus of weird rattling sounds. You approach with some trepidation, and peer between the bars. Your attention is seized by writhing forms on the straw bottom of the cage. As your eyes adjust to the gloom, you realize that the floor is seething with serpents, dark and colorful, languid and large, swift and small. You hear a sultry chuckle, and you see bright, unblinking emerald eyes staring at you from the corner of the cage. A woman crawls through the snakes, her scaled body as sinuous and lissome as the creatures that share her home. She reaches towards you languorously with her sharp-clawed hands and sighs.
A sensual blend of twisting, exotic, serpentine oils: black amber, oakmoss, green sandalwood, bergamot, jasmine sambac, gardenia, orange pulp, black cardamom, vanilla, blackberry, black musk, blackened vanilla husk, white honey, ti leaf, and ginger.
A light, pure scent: white musk, green tea, aloe and lemon.

Currently wearing the imp, feels woody and kinda floral on my skin. The floral parts may emerge more in warmer weather but now it’s heavy with wood, kinda sweet and mysterious. I am liking it very much.

Smokey creamy orange and sweet citrus green. I love mixing this with Snake Oil! I get so many compliments when I wear this! Lasts a good amount of time before reapplying and has a nice throw without being overwhelming. Very unique!

In the imp: Juicy, overripe citrus, smashed on a dirty floor.
Wet on skin: Chocolate lime. Why, I don’t know, since there’s no chocolate notes in it.
Dry on skin: Mainly still just overripe, slightly unpleasant citrus. I don’t get any of the other notes, even the smoke, and normally my skin turns musk or smoke notes up really high. I don’t like this at all.

The copal comes out really strong, giving this one a woody scent — I think the florals and orange balance it really nicely, though. This is unusual, but I quite like it.

This is quite green! Smells like new growth and possibility. I love the plumeria and orange in it–both are very light, just hints, really. This blend is very well balanced with sweet and green. It’s one of those scents that I do love, but doesn’t feel like “me”. It’s florally, but I think it would work on men and women.
Unisex, green, soft, floral, fruity.
