Aelfscyne Perfume

Aelfscyne ('beautiful as a fairy') is an otherworldly enchantment of luminescent white amber, meadowsweet, wood hyacinth, Lonicera, woodbine, sweetfern, Cashmeran wood and delicate green tea. The mist has left the greening plain, The dew-drops shine like fairy rain, The coquette rose awakes again Her lovely self adorning. The Wind is hiding in the trees, A sighing, soothing, laughing tease, Until the rose says "Kiss me, please," 'Tis morning, 'tis morning. -- Paul Laurence Dunbar Art: Spirit of the Night by John Grimshaw, 1879
