Al Azif Perfume Oil
Select Options This product has multiple variants. The options may be chosen on the product pageAn 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.

Mystical Aphorisms of the Fortune Cookie Perfume Oil
Add to cartObergefell vs Hodges
If, even as the price to be paid for a fifth vote, I ever joined an opinion for the Court that began: ‘The Constitution promises liberty to all within its reach, a liberty that includes certain specific rights that allow persons, within a lawful realm, to define and express their identity,’ I would hide my head in a bag. The Supreme Court of the United States has descended from the disciplined legal reasoning of John Marshall and Joseph Story to the mystical aphorisms of the fortune cookie.
Almond fortune cookies and a bit of roadside palm reader-inspired incense.

Cigarettes and Offerings Perfume Oil
Out of Stock“I think,” he pronounced, gloomily, “that our kind, we like the cigarettes so much because they remind us of the offerings that once they burned for us, the smoke rising up as they sought our approval or our favor.”
Cigarette smoke overlapping with the resonance of long-forgotten incenses.

This is incredible. It somehow captures exactly what an old cathedral smells like! I love it.

This scent, oh boy. I received this as a free imp, found the scent overwhelming in the vial and thought I’d hate it.
Yet on my skin, even wet it mellowed out, bringing to mind an aged incense with a subtle sweetness that’s neither sugary or fruity. I enjoyed this one much more then I thought, might consider a full bottle.

Smells just like the wooden pews of a cathedral and lingering holy incense.

cathedral is my favorite so far. its smells exactly like it says, im still shocked every time i wear it. very much smells like wandering around in some forgotten secret passage beneath an old rotting cathedral. damp earth and crumbling stone. smells like rain in old abandoned buildings. i love it.

I ordered this in an Imp.
In the bottle is has a dark oud smell that is hard to put your finger on.
On the skin, well, if you love the smell of old books/old libraries and years of incense like I do, I would recommend this scent.
It is also pleasantly unisex. Not too sweet or too musky for me but somewhere pleasantly in the middle. I could see myself or my partner both wearing this scent comfortably.
To me this scent is dark, comforting and grounding. Just what I need now in all this chaos and insanity. I have a feeling this will age exceptionally well and I will likely get a bottle once my Imp runs out.

Definitely calls on a cathedral, I imagine this exact scent wafting out of a thurible at an empty mass. Incense ashes and tree resin. Smells like I’ve been sitting in plumes of incense smoke all day and I love it.

My 2nd favorite of all BPALs. It smells exactly like high mass combined with the very old, very polished dark wood stage in the auditorium of my grade school. Works well on me. I pick up resins, wood, incense but not florals.

wet: Sweet oily resins & smoke & wood
dry down: A definite resin note blasting through, the sweetness is gone
aftermath: Faint faint woody sweet smoke that varies between “dry” and “oily.” I can’t think of a better way to put it.

Cathedral kinda brought back the hazy memories I had of the stone church before the fire, heavy sweet incense that lingers for a few hours but after a day it was just a faint sweetness I love it. Might work differently with someone else’s body chemistry.

Redolent of holy resins, candle smoke the cold earth and stone of medieval cathedrals, all on a monks robes.

Reminds me of the old cathedral I used to attend as a child. Pleasant memories of ancient hugeness of the place.
