Gothic Scents For Every Personality




I am enamored of Gothic Rosary. This company knows its scents and knows its audience! I like to promote people doing what they were meant to do and giving products and services and art that we cannot get any other way than independently.

There are a lot of ways to use these scents in projects. I am taking one of the lucky scents and soaking a cottonball and putting it inside my business card holder. It makes all the cards hold a mysterious lingering scent that immediately evokes a feeling in the person who takes it. It is a subtle and subliminal way of being remembered and giving someone instant feelings of either comfort or curiosity.

"Can't Wait Demeter"
Surround Demeter, as she longs for Persephone to return from Hades...

"Amber Addiction"
Intoxicatingly warm and smooth you surrender to a golden habit knowing what resin catches it keeps.

Verdict:  Dew-laden grass underfoot as you weave your way between ancient headstones, gazing at the glistening flowers left behind and tracing your fingers over the lips of a cherub.

"Gothic Rose" 
Blood red roses...The smell of unfurled deep crimson petals.
Verdict:  The Grand Dame who ruled the turn-of-the-century theater, sweeping into the party, in a lingering scent of roses from her admirers and the wood floors of the stage.

Burnt bits and smoldering embers... The smell of smoke mixed with woods and spice...

"Wicked"

Wonderfully tempting...the smell of supple black leather and fresh tobacco...
Verdict:  Faster, smarter, higher, brighter, manic and driven - in a completely different realm and a vibration that tickles everyone's curiosity.

After reviewing all these scents, I decided my business cards would smell like - "Can't Wait Demeter." Expect me to find lots of uses for the other scents. I tested them on my skin and I had no reaction, so this is exciting. I can be many characters with one tiny dot of scent depending on my moods.
