The scent of The Throne of the House is spicy and warm. It’s like a hot toddy next to a fireplace on a cold snowy night. It’s SO delicious. I’m hoping to move to a larger apartment at some point this year, I’m utilizing this bpal to bless my current hope, seek protection, and for working with finding a new home. I’m really happy with how it’s working for me thus far.
New neighbors moved in shortly before this arrived. They draw an aggressive, intimidating, and uncommon quality of person to the little doorsteps we share. After an encounter that left me feeling targeted, in addition to the packages beginning to disappear for the first time in my four years living here, I felt the need to establish a barrier/boundary. I anointed the inside of my front door leading to a common shared space where those interactions happened, as well as the windows and window frames. The demeanor of their guests shifted, the number of visits decreased (and the loitering) and a new tenant moved in who installed one of those ring cameras. I did notice an increase in the number of blues in my drives (and I am ever-vigilant where they are and what they’re doing) but they did their thing and I was left in peace.
Okay, first of all, this smells exactly like a candle. But not just any old candle: imagine wandering around a boutique and catching a whiff of something amazing, tracking it down to realize it’s coming from a very lovely, very expensive candle whose price tag would normally scare you off, but now that you’ve found it you can’t imagine not taking it home with you, so you buy it and don’t light it until you’re ready to feel really, *really* good and create a perfect, cozy atmosphere in your home. That’s what this smells like.
Second, something very weird just happened after using this perfume for the first time: my housemates had a DIRECTV guy over early this morning to fiddle with the satellite, which happens to be located outside my bedroom window. I overslept after a late night and really wasn’t in the mood to be bugged by these proceedings, and hoped the guy wouldn’t have to access my bedroom for any reason (especially when I heard him puttering around in the room next to mine), so I burned some DAII incense and applied this perfume along with a light dose of Eirene oil before venturing out to make some tea. I said a few words to a housemate about a rattlesnake I’d seen in the yard, then took my tea back to my room to relax. The TV guy made quick work of the satellite issue, never even appearing in my window as I sipped my tea. My bedroom was entirely undisturbed. Then, when I went down to make breakfast later, I made a lame joke as I passed my housemate again, and was completely perplexed when he followed me into the kitchen a moment later to remark on how “pleasant” and “engaging” I was being and how he just wanted to say that he didn’t know what it was, but he just really enjoyed being around me that morning (!!!!!?!) — you have to understand that this is a guy that is NOT the sort to go around giving random compliments like this, and I was feeling quite groggy and slovenly, overdue for a shower and certainly not at my best, and here was grumpy old Paul, waxing on and on (at length!) about how likable I was. It was entirely bizarre and would have been absolutely inexplicable if I hadn’t applied Throne of the House that morning! Consider me floored!!
