Already, at dawn, you can tell it's going to be one of *those* days. Those blissfully hot, brilliantly cloudless days, when the heat creeps in gasoline hues over the empty, waiting midway, and ignites with the bustling crowd. Already you can feel the sun crackling at the back of your neck, and you know that tonight, as it sets, you'll be jumping hand-in-hand, giggling, off Wunderkammer Pier into the cool golden river. But right now, at dawn, these grounds belong to you. The yawning operator spots you and smiles, stands and lifts the gate. You scramble into your favorite car, Number Six, the one where if you lean just right you're set into startling motion, spinning and spinning, in rainbows of balloons and sliced-orange parasols and watermelon wedges and lemon shake-ups and tart cherry ice. Growing up is nice, but summer is yours forever. Fire it up. Throw your weight into it. Enjoy the ride.
Carefully blended and infused by me in small batches in vintage glass wine bottles, this is a bright, citrusy fragrance that begins fruity and ends mellow and herbal and almost grown up. :) It was designed at the request of the wholly awesome supreme nerd goddess Caitlin at Shiro Cosmetics, who wanted something orangey and passionfruity but not too sweet, and who knows a little something about brilliant color and fantastic blending herself. She's graciously allowed me to share it with you. Check out her shop at http://www.etsy.com/shop/shirocosmetics for marvelously nerdy and lusciously colored Vegan mineral eyeshadows. They've made me a believer in makeup.
A multitude of different scent elements and weeks of methodical alchemy make Tilt-A-Whirl no ordinary scented oil mix-it's a truly inimitable fragrance.
