Alkemia PerfumesBook of Shadows

A biblichor of eldritch books - heavy parchment paper, ancient iron oak gall ink, crumbling leather bindings, and wafts of rare incenses. "Time-eaten, like his books, and worn With teen and strong endeavour, Pure heart, flame burning ever, Whence lofty thought and verse were born, With lamp-lit toil he met the morn. And wealth bequeathed by ages old Stood round him piled, enshelved, Wherein he nightly delved, Nor paused when grey was smitten gold..." -J.J. Britton "A Bookworm" (1884) Art: Dutch Vanitas Still Life by Unknown Artist, c. mid-1600s
