luna65 Posted September 19, 2018 Share Posted September 19, 2018 Many of the classic magicians liked to play act that they were assisted by devilish creatures from beyond the veil and harnessed supernatural powers which allowed them to create their "miracles." There's also a legend, or folk superstition, which states when a person sneezes, the act of taking that abrupt inhalation before the sneeze is a perfect opportunity for a devil to sneak right up your nose. This is why the custom of saying "bless you" has arisen and continues today...the act of the blessing foils the devil's plan. You might require such information, Ladies & Gents, if you dare to wear this most enthralling fragrance. Concocted from three types of devilishly spicy black pepper varieties, blended with smooth Havana tobacco and exotic molten resins, it is a darkly mysterious sleek and sensual unisex blend. But just remember: with all that pepper in this potion, should someone sneeze while you’re wearing it don’t forget to say “BLESS YOU!” BLACK PEPPER ~ Protection, fidelity, dispels envy and evil, exorcism, breaks hexes. TOBACCO ~ Healing, purification, spiritualism. An ode to the Gods. AMBER ~ Fertility, creativity, love, luck, riches. PATCHOULI ~ Soothes and uplifts; sensual, sexually stimulating, lust, fertility, money. Meditative and transforming. Created by: Mara Fox Collection concept: Emely Lisette Description: Julie (luna65) & Mara Label art: vintage advertising artwork The Golden Age of Magic collection, April 2013 The Golden Age of Magic This set of fragrances pays homage to the golden age of the stage magicians, which took place during the epoque of the Gilded Age right up to the advent of the Roaring Twenties (roughly between 1880 and 1920); when the creations of new technology were so astounding they indeed seemed indistinguishable from magic and its practitioners were among the first to take advantage of the harnessing of electricity, projection of images, and transmission of radio waves to enhance their performances and amaze audiences worldwide. To give these potions a further mesmerizing aura, we have included a swirl of highest quality cosmetic grade glitter in each bottle, and the labels for this set feature depictions of the actual magicians and/or their vintage advertising artwork.
