Its midnight somewhere, right?

Recommended Posts

Good evening, all. What a nutty spring this has been! We’re still in the process of moving the Lab, so please be patient while we settle in to the temporary dungeon. Order processing time will fall back just a wee bit, but we’re resilient, and things will be right as rain very quickly.

 

And now, on with the update information:

 

++ LIMITED EDITION

LITHA- Midsummer, Ukon Juhla, Alban Heruin, the Light of the Shore. This is the summer solstice, the longest day of the year, marking the sun’s highest path across the sky. The Sun God and the Lord of the Forest are at the apex of their strength, and the Holy Day itself is a celebration of light’s triumph over darkness. The world around us is teeming with light and life, and on this day fertility rituals for both the land and its people are observed. Honey mead with honeysuckle, oak wood, ivy leaf, wild thyme, carnation, daisy, vervain, gum arabic, frankincense, yauhtli, and liquid copal.

 

Litha will be available until June 1, 2006.

 

 

As promised, two new scents have been added to Ars Draconis:

 

++ ARS DRACONIS

DRAGON’S CLAW - Smooth, polished and lethally sharp: dragon’s blood resin and three sandalwoods.

 

DRAGON’S REVERIE - Opium-laced dreams of flame, plunder, power and fury: dragon’s blood resin, poppy, amber and ylang ylang.

 

 

This month, a new GC category is being introduced: the Salon. The scents found there represent olfactory impressions of pieces of visual art. Thus, no descriptive passage is being given for the scents other than an overview of the components. The artwork speaks for itself. Oils from the Salon are $23.00 per 5ml due to the cost of the ingredients, and they are not available in 10ml size. There are no imp’s ears for any of the salon scents, again due to the cost of the ingredients.
