A Thousand Kisses Deep Perfume

The ponies run, the girls are young
The odds are there to beat
You win a while and then it’s done
Your little winning streak
And summoned now to deal
With your invincible defeat
You live your life as if it’s real
A thousand kisses deep

I’m turning tricks, I’m getting fixed
I’m back on boogie street
You lose your grip and then you slip
Into the masterpiece
And maybe I had miles to drive
And promises to keep
You ditch it all to stay alive
A thousand kisses deep

And sometimes when the night is slow
The wretched and the meek
We gather up our hearts and go
A thousand kisses deep

Confined to sex we pressed against
The limits of the sea
I saw there were no oceans left
For scavengers like me
I made it to the forward deck
I blessed our remnant fleet
And then consented to be wrecked
A thousand kisses deep

I’m turning tricks I’m getting fixed
I’m back on boogie street
I guess they won’t exchange the gifts
That you were meant to keep
And quiet is the thought of you
The file on you complete
Except what we forgot to do
A thousand kisses deep

And sometimes when the night is slow
The wretched and the meek
We gather up our hearts and go
A thousand kisses deep

The ponies run, the girls are young
The odds are there to beat
You win a while and then it’s done
Your little winning streak
And summoned now to deal
With your invincible defeat
You live your life as if it’s real
A thousand kisses deep ~ Leonard Cohen

After the first waves of knee-buckling shock and crippling grief have subsided, after the throats torn raw with weeping have softened, after the protective and numbing layer of ice melts from around the heart, a remarkable thing happens. It sees the sweetness and beauty left behind, even more potent and cherished.

Raised anew from the last of our Leonard Cohen inspired “1000 Kisses Deep”, let this perfume warm at your pulse points as your heart remembers.

All of the notes of smoky, sticky resins from the original are present, buoyed by a gentle warmth and sweetness of cacao & vanilla bean, as cemetery trees laden with sun-ripened fruit.

Use ritually to anoint oneself, candles and other objects.
