Luck Perfume, 1 oz

The luck register, worn. A luck perfume in the botanica tradition of fragrances named for their intention: luck, love, protection, money. You wear it into the moment that matters.

A 1 oz bottle. Larger than the roll-on and dram sizes on the shelf, so it lasts through a season of interviews, games, and first days.

Made for the day of the thing. Best applied right before the event rather than weeks ahead; luck workings in folk practice are worked close to the moment.

• Volume: 1 oz
• Bottle: 1 oz square bottle
• Type: luck perfume, Plentiful Earth's own line (sister to the 1 oz Love and Pentacle perfumes)
• A fragrance composition, not an essential oil
• For external use only; not for ingestion; patch test before regular wear
• Weight: about 4.8 oz

This is a proprietary fragrance blend and the full formula is not published. Treat it as a scented perfume for external wear: patch test a small patch of skin first, keep it out of your eyes, and do not ingest it. The full ingredient list can be confirmed with Plentiful Earth before you order.

A good luck perfume is used in botanica and Hoodoo-influenced folk practice to carry the luck intention on the body: you wear it into the room where the luck is needed. That custom runs deep in the Americas. Gamblers have dabbed Hoyt's Cologne on their hands since the nineteenth century, botanicas have sold Suerte Rapida and Buena Suerte colognes for generations, and spiritual perfumes named for their purpose fill the same shelf. The logic is simple: scent goes where you go, and a scent tied to an intention keeps that intention close through the whole of the day.

You can work it the same way. Put it on before the interview, the exam, the draw, or the game, and speak what you hope for out loud as you do. Some practitioners touch a drop to a lucky charm, a wallet, or a petition paper as well. The perfume gives the luck a scent; the practice, and your own readiness, gives it somewhere to land.

1. Patch test a small amount on your inner arm and wait a day before regular wear.
2. On the day of the thing, apply a little to the wrists and the base of the throat and say a short petition for luck in the matter at hand; keep it specific.
3. Touch a trace to a lucky charm, a coin, or the inside of your wallet so the intention rides with you in more than one place.
4. For a luck working at the altar, dab a little on a petition paper naming what you are asking for and set it under a green or gold candle in a safe holder.
5. Reapply before the next occasion rather than daily, so the scent stays tied to luck rather than to habit.

How much and how often is your call; the pairing of scent and intention is the practice.

• 1oz Love Perfume: the love-register sister in the same line and size.
• 1oz Pentacle Perfume: the protection-register sister, for the days you want both luck and a shield.
• Pewter Good Luck Coin Clover Pocket Stone: a pocket luck charm to dab with the perfume and carry in.
• Fast Luck Oil, 4 Dram: the Hoodoo condition oil for dressing candles when the luck needs to come quickly.
• Lucky Hand Root Body Oil by Aura Variety, 1 oz, roll-on: the gambler's luck root in a wearable oil, for games of chance.

What is a luck perfume used for?

A luck perfume is worn on the body to carry a luck intention into a specific moment: an interview, a game, a draw, a first day. It comes out of the botanica and Hoodoo-influenced custom of fragrances named for their purpose. You put it on, say what you hope for, and go about the day.

Is this good luck perfume the same as Fast Luck cologne?

They sit in the same register but differ in form and speed. Fast Luck, or Suerte Rapida, is the botanica formula for quick turns of fortune and is usually a cologne or condition oil. This is a general luck perfume in Plentiful Earth's own line, worn for everyday and occasion luck alike.

Will wearing this make me lucky?

It is a fragrance, so we promise no outcomes, and we say so plainly. Folk practice uses a luck perfume as a way to keep the intention close and walk in ready, not as a substitute for preparation. Wear it as part of that practice and let the rest be your own readiness.

Is it safe to wear on skin?

It is made for external wear as a perfume. As with any fragranced product, patch test a small area first if you have sensitive skin or known fragrance allergies, keep it out of your eyes, and stop using it if your skin reacts. It is not for ingestion.

Can I use it on a candle or a charm instead of on me?

Yes. A drop on a petition paper, a lucky coin, or the inside of a wallet is a common way to work a luck perfume when you would rather not wear it. If you dress a candle, keep the perfume away from the flame itself and set the candle in a safe holder.
