A Noiseless Patient Spider

Black Phoenix Alchemy Lab (BPAL) Lilith's Birthday : 2021 Limited Edition Perfume Oil (Limited)

A noiseless patient spider,
I mark’d where on a little promontory it stood isolated,
Mark’d how to explore the vacant vast surrounding,
It launch’d forth filament, filament, filament, out of itself,
Ever unreeling them, ever tirelessly speeding them.

And you O my soul where you stand,
Surrounded, detached, in measureless oceans of space,
Ceaselessly musing, venturing, throwing, seeking the spheres to connect them,
Till the bridge you will need be form’d, till the ductile anchor hold,
Till the gossamer thread you fling catch somewhere, O my soul.

– Walt Whitman

A scent inspired by my baby, Walt Whitman, and Tom Bloom’sBPAL promotional videofor the 2021 Lilith series.Till the gossamer thread you fling catch somewhere, O my soul:strands of night-speckled iris, soft lavender, ti leaf, and white sandalwood, tremulous with dew and green cognac, against a warm backdrop of bourbon vetiver, tonka, myrrh, and cardamom.
