Love Me or Die

An Oil of warmed cinnamon and leathered honey, Love Me or Die is tool and weapon for those who wish to be adored at all cost made at the feet of She Who Stirs Desire; a cold goddess, an enthroned mistress, a beautiful tormentor, and a sovereign before whom devotion turns towards servitude. Here is liquid honey as a trap for flies all in pursuit of being desired, remembered, pursued, adored, and treated as precious. Love Me or Die contains, in part, the tomb dirt of a powerful woman, mink fur, fur of a large cat, cinnamon, bat nut, rose, musk, vanilla beans, jasmine, orris, pomegranate seed, sumatran benzoin, wolf fur, garnet and powdered copper, dove heart, blackthorn berry and thorn, rabbit fur, fox testicles bound in red thread, scorpion, dodder, mandrake root, freshwater pearl, and the petals of seven roses offered to a female spirit of dominion and command. Additionally, Love Me or Die contains a small portion of honey and the blood of a dove that was offered to Venus; the honey mixture itself was allowed to sit in a working space, all to bring in and catch flies, just as we seek to capture our desires, over a period of 7 days accompanied by prayer and the addition of flame. In complete practicality and bluntness, Love Me or Die is an oil for those who wish to be desired, remembered, pursued, adored, and treated as something precious. Its name is an ultimatum, but not necessarily one delivered into the ear of another person. Love me or die is the demand carried by the wearer into the world: let indifference die, let forgetfulness die, let the version of me that passes unseen and untouched die. It is the cultivation of an attraction that lingers, a presence that haunts the mind, and a longing that refuses to be easily dismissed. It does not ask one particular person to love you or suffer; it asks that wherever you pass, desire should have difficulty remaining asleep. There is teeth in this work, nevertheless. Love Me or Die was made beneath the gaze of a female spirit for whom beauty and dominion are not opposites, and its sweetness should not be mistaken for softness. Honey catches flies. Roses bear thorns. Desire may enthrone as readily as it entangles. The oil may therefore be worked for fascination, glamour, sexual and romantic magnetism, remembrance, preferential treatment, reconciliation, the intensification of an existing attraction, or simply to become difficult to overlook and harder still to forget. Its title names the extremity of that virtue, not a license to compel another person. Love Me or Die is not intended as an instrument of coercion or a means of forcing another to submit to your will. To employ it in that fashion is to misunderstand where its sovereignty resides: the work is upon the one who wears it, and upon the field of desire surrounding them, rather than upon the captivity of a chosen victim. This is especially important for men who might seek to employ the oil upon women. Love Me or Die is fiercely protective of women, and its fullest expression, breadth of virtue, and most natural home are found in the hands of women themselves. The command, then, remains every bit as severe as the name promises. Every bottle of Love Me or Die will arrive with detailed instructions and suggestions for usage.
