  I don’t mind the sun sometimes, the hieroglyphs it shows,

  I can taste you on my lips and smell you in my gauze,

  Cinnamon and sugary and softly mummified guys,

  You never know just how to look through all-seeing Horus eyes.

  Can I get this as a perfume? Maybe Axe could do a thing?

    Relevant Smithsonian article.

    I’d probably skip on the animal fat and bitumen, but cedar, juniper, and cypress all smell pretty good.

    Apparently the scent could also vary slightly depending on who was being embalmed.

      i dunno, musky scents like that do have their place in the perfume world, in moderation.

  Well and good but how is Kasparov and his lilac marigolds anything to do with it.
