Whole Unto Herself

Recommended Posts

Life imposes so many restrictions on us as we climb through the years: responsibilities, challenges, hardship. Lilith, my baby, may you soar through it with exuberance and grace. Never lose your joy and your sense of self, the triumph of daily pleasures, and the freedom of your soul. May the sorrows of the world never calcify around you; may the sorrows of the world never dim your light or silence your song.

A prayer for my daughter: frankincense, rose, and white lilies.

In the bottle: the pungence of frankincense, softened by the flower notes slightly. Perhaps a hint of anise? Very attractive.

Wet on the skin: Lillies rise to prominence and is fighting it out with the fragrance. A little softer than in the bottle -- still good.

I like it so far. Not my favorite frankincense, and lillies are not always my friend. But I am liking it so far.

I got a handful of Liliths at DragonCon. I chose them by cold sniff, not even remembering the notes as I went happily along sniffing.

 

At first I thought this was going to be a juicy floral, and it is, at first. Wet flowers present juicy and fruity at first, though nothing aquatic about the wetness of the florals. The frankincense steps in and keeps the roses quite tame and grounded.

 

This is a beautiful, thoughtful scent.

Frankincense and rosy lilies. This one has a fair bit of resin/frankincense, with floral edges. Medium throw, good wear length.
