Afternoon everyone,
Well we've a busy week lined up, and no mistake. Tomorrow at midday (GMT) we will be making Baskerville available for pre-order via our website until 1200hrs (GMT) 01/10. Inspired by cuir de russie and also the Sir Arthur Conan Doyle novel 'The Hound of the Baskervilles' the scent is our offering for the autumnal season. Birch, labdanum, frankincense, tonka bean, cedarwood and vetiver make for a dark scent.
For me it smells of dark moorland and earth, albeit with a very slight hint of smoke which is introduced via the inclusion of birch tar.
Here are the opening lines from its description on our site:
"Darkness envelops the wanderer. His hind-brain in turmoil, will he fly or fight?
Terminally he hesitates. For something monstrously large and impossibly close lets a wet guttural growl from its lupine throat. Lucent eyes peel open and watch him from within the night that envelops them.
They focus only on him.
The Beast and the wanderers doom explode forwards.. "
After Baskerville and on the 30th September 'Star Noir' will be available for purchase via our website and pre-orders will be dispatched soon after
. Thank you to all of our pre-order customers and to everyone who has supported us / purchased our soaps to date
.
With kindest regards,
Kerry.
