Wine and Dead Roses 2009

This is an excessively sensual potion...and it hardly gets any more Goth than this. Imagine a sweat soaked night in New Orleans, wrapped in the arms of a voraciously sexual Vampire. Three kinds of Roses, soaked in blood red Merlot, Earth, and Spices.

Wine and Dead Roses™ is very much about atmosphere, it's dark and it's seductive, it's spectacularly moody. I created it as an atmospheric to accompany my writing, and it turned out perfect for the aura I was trying to summon. It had to have wine, blood red, dark, spicy wine. Earth was also very important in this blend because I wanted the musty coolness of fresh earth to temper the spicy wine. Roses have always surrounded me, every garden I have ever had just had tons of Roses, so I added a touch of 4 different kinds. I love wearing this out and about, I get more people asking me if I know I remind them of a heroine in a Hammer film - Yes, as a matter of fact, I do.
