Black Phoenix Alchemy Lab (BPAL) Halloween : 2017 Limited Edition Perfume Oil (Limited)

A gleaming glassy ocean
Under a sky of grey;
A tide that dreams of motion,
Or moves, as the dead may;
A bird that dips and wavers
Over lone waters round,
Then with a cry that quavers
Is gone—a spectral sound.

The brown sad sea-weed drifting
Far from the land, and lost;
The faint warm fog unlifting,
The derelict long tossed,
But now at rest—though haunted
By the death-scenting shark,
Whose prey no more undaunted
Slips from it, spent and stark.

—Cale Young Rice

Seaspray and flecks of foam welling with opoponax and labdanum’s sepulchral moans.
