BPAL review: Dee



Dee

BPAL description: From the Bewitching Brews collection. John Dee: master of science, alchemy and magic, Hermetic philosopher in the schools of Rosicrucian Christian Mysticism and Platonic-Pythagorean doctrine, and Queen Elizabeth’s astrologer, advisor, cryptologist and spy. With Edward Kelly, he created a field of study and work in Angelic Evocation, and isolated the Angelic language: Enochian. His scent is soft English leather, rosewood and tonka with a hint of incense, parchment and soft woods. (Gender neutral)

In vial: Light woods, hint of leather.

Wet: The woods emerge.

Dry: Woods, with the leather emerging *just* a bit and making it smell manly. In a good way.

Notes: Uncooperative cat. Liking it better than expected. Not really enough to get a bottle, but I'll keep the imp for a while.

Mmmm, I like the woodsy, good man smell. I really, really do.

*giggles* wouldn't it rock if John Dee actually smelled horrible? Like really crappy BO that no one told him about, at all? Sorry I tend to get morbid around perfumes named after/around people..

Well, judging by the general level of hygiene in Elizabethan times, he probably was rather whiffy. XD
