How can something smell so…unwholesome, yet so alluring at the same time? Decadent and dangerous…beware!…the addiction begins as soon as it touches your skin. This potion may be worn by both women and men.

 

There can be no rapture of love without the dark ecstasy of lust. No uplifting light without the sinuous, concealing embrace of darkness. While the singing and dancing commences in the Fae World Above, one need only peer through the dark mirror to discover the World Below, where every sinful indulgence, every darkest desire, every forbidden fantasy, is yours to fulfill. The presence of such decadent danger can't help but make your heart skip a beat. You know you shouldn't look further, but you can't help yourself. Surely just a peek wouldn't hurt? As you take your first small, hesitant step through the looking glass you detect charred woods and pitch mixed with decaying agarwood that's turned to oud. The allure of copal and amber resins weave through your senses and make your heart beat faster, opening it to the promise of desire to be found within this realm. There's something in here, drawing you closer, almost an instant addiction…traces of leather and ambergris waft toward you from deeper within this dangerous place, triggering an involuntary lust deep within your core that dispels any hesitancy and fills you with a dark need to fulfill its promise. Another step takes you further into this dangerous domain, consuming your senses with the earthy, lusty scent of musk, coupled with juniper, foxglove and the sweet, addictive allure of opium. With this, the spell is complete. Your mind is no longer in control…your will is no longer your own. Then you see the dark eyes glimmering in the darkness like gems against velvet. A crooked finger beckons you to take just one more step…then another…and another. Then before you realize it, you are enslaved…now and forevermore, a willing participant in the debauchery perpetrated by the Unseelie Queen. And you love it.
