kebechet Report post Posted July 17, 2008 What is the Lunacy this month, you ask? Why, its… STURGEON MOON A month of bounty, when the fish are plentiful and the corn grows high. This is the scent of breezes passing over the Great Lakes, mingling gently with traditional lunar herbs. Sandy shores and sweet fresh water, lichen, green algae, and whitestem pondweed, with benzoin, cyclamen, moonlit musk, cucumber, blue poppy, and agave. Sturgeon Moon is also live at Black Phoenix Trading Post! Artwork by Ms. Jennifer Williamson. No fishes were harmed in the making of these products, and no, Sturgeon Moon does not smell like fishguts or roe! Hee! Also in the LE section this month… PENUMBRA The observer’s space within a partial eclipse. Rich purple musk, moonflower, red sandalwood, black amber, oakmoss, copal, lavender, neroli, tobacco, and pomegranate. Sturgeon Moon and Penumbra are $17.50 per bottle, and will be live until July 20, 2008. Also live this month… (insert dramatic pause and drumroll here, for its been two years since our last one!)…. CHAOS THEORY IV: EDGE OF CHAOS Each bottle of Chaos Theory is truly unique, a fragrant fractal, and exercise in the joy of chance and uncertainty! Each is a one-of-a-kind, utterly random combination of scents, the composition of which is based on whim, mood and gut instinct. Most common allergens have been omitted from the experiment. No pennyroyal, no nuts, no cinnamon, no cassia. Regardless, if you have any sensitivities, please do not participate in Chaos Theory. The contents of the oils are not recorded [that’s the whole point!] and we will not be able to answer questions about specific bottles of CT4 or guarantee that an allergen is not present in your order. By purchasing CT:4, you agree to absolve Black Phoenix of any responsibility related to an allergic reaction to one of the oils in this series. Please make a responsible choice, and use caution and discretion when ordering. This is intended to be a fun, exciting project. Please bear in mind that all Black Phoenix oils are made in an environment that contains nuts, both literally and figuratively. The Chaos blends were created by both myself and Mister Constantine, with a handful contributed by Teddy, so you get an extra dose of chaos! The long-awaited Snow, Glass, Apples perfume will be making its debut at San Diego Comic Con! The SGA package includes Neil Gaiman’s short story in chapbook format, beautifully illustrated by Julie Dillon, and a 5ml bottle of perfume inspired by the tale. This set is a limited run of 1000. 250 will be sold by CBLDF at Comic Con 2008, and the remainder will go on sale July 30, 2008 on the Black Phoenix Alchemy Lab web site and will be available as long as supplies last. All profits from this project benefit the Comic Book Legal Defense Fund! The next act of Carnaval will be coming soon, and, as is BPAL tradition, the Halloween scents will be going live in August! Coming soon to Black Phoenix Trading Post: the MVJBA Pancake Breakfast and Summoning, the next installment of sin / virtue bath oils, more atmospheric schpritzies, the Courtesans series of solid perfumes, disturbing bunnies and kittens, lockets and pendants inspired by Neil Gaiman's brilliant short stories (benefiting Alzheimer’s research and Match It For Pratchett), and a whole kaboodle more!
