Secrets of the Sun Hair & Perfume Oil - NEW! Rich Indonesian patchouli, musky honey, wild honeysuckle, gardenia, sun-warmed skin This is my love song to Kamasi Washington, Sun Ra, the heat of summer, & the best of our years in Chicago: lakeside jazz festivals, a cool glass of tej on a Friday night, the late July sun slanting low & golden over the city, bare feet on hot pavement, apartment windows flung open to let in the hush of traffic & communal sounds of the neighborhood & the scent of hidden gardens, bright African wax print cotton, the unmistakable warmth of Miles Davis on vinyl, evening walks along the lakeshore parks full of families & dogs & music & the crack of cricket bats to catch one last breeze before bedtime... Secrets of the Sun is the smell of sun-kissed skin, honey wine, incense, a snow white flower tucked into jet black curls. It's cosmic jazz turned up to eleven, good friends, flowing skirts, dancing on the roof, watching the sun set & the stars come out... Soundtrack your summer here: Kamasi Washington, The Epic
