When lengthens the night’s shadow, on the street the dogs bark
The barn owl strums an eerie tune, from pipal ghosts disembark
I sink in the blanket deep, in its dark secured hollow
Can their eyes still see me, can me still they follow?
When the clouds hide the moon, stars wear shroud of black
The winds rattle the window, floats misty shadow’s track
I shrink small beneath my blanket, sweats from forehead drip
Do those eyes still follow me, clawed hands itch for a grip?
When night seems a black paste, spread on around my bed
From tree trunk descends a dark shape, a torso without a head
I slip afar through the blanket, to escape the monster’s reach
Can they still hunt me out, my fear’s demon and witch?-Pradip Chattopadhyay via the Poem Hunter
Our Dark Hollow blend was inspired in part by Sleepy Hollow and the Headless Horseman, but this spooky poem sealed the vibe! Step into a realm of dark sophistication where bewitching top notes of bergamot and spicy clove unfold into a rich heart of worn leather and dark musk, accented by whispers of lavender smoke, finishing with the earthy sweetness of tobacco leaf and sultry amber. It's dark and seductive and will leave you begging for more! Limited edition!
This listing for one 10ml roll-on bottle.
Ingredients: Fractionated coconut oil & fragrance
Dark Hollow Perfume Oil Roller
Perfume oil rollers do not contain any alcohol and thus won't have the staying power of a true parfum. However, here's a few tips to get the most out of each application:
- Apply your perfume oil to moisturized skin. Aroma molecules evaporate far more slowly on well hydrated skin. Dry skin will quickly dissipate fragrance as well as those lighter and brighter top notes and floral heart notes.
- Apply after bathing/showering when possible, when pores are open for maximum absorption.
- Try layering your scented products for a longer aromatic experience. Select scents that complement and/or have similar note profiles. A scented lotion or body oil will moisturize AND maximize scent retention.
- Apply to pulse points but do NOT rub in (rubbing will make the top notes burn off more quickly!). If you apply more than you wanted, simply tap your wrists together or dab on another pulse point. Warmth exuded from these points will project scent the longest. Best pulse points: wrists, neck/behind ears, collar bones, heart space, inner elbows (a great spot for long-lasting diffusion!), and behind knees.
- However, there are certain spots that experts DO NOT recommend applying any perfume to, inlcuding eyes, face, privates, scalp, and any irritated, damaged skin (including cuts, scrapes, etc).
- Remember that citrus and floral notes are the most fleeting so a floral-forward scent will dissipate much more quickly than a woodsy or gourmand blend. Thus you may have to reapply these lighter blends a few times throughout the day.
- Also remember that you will get used to your signature scent and won't notice it as much as those surrounding you. So don't be too quick to overapply!
- Keep in mind that if you've been to the gym and worked up a sweat, you'll need to reapply post-shower.
- Store your perfume roller in a cool, dark place for longest shelf life. Do not allow your roller bottle to be exposed to direct sun, excessive heat, high humidity (ahem, like the bathroom), or anywhere that it will be exposed to drastic temperature changes.
