Honey
The Slow Gold
Sweetness with a body, half flower and half animal.
✶
Honey is sweetness that remembers the hive — waxen, faintly animalic, with a warm floral hum beneath the gold. She is never innocent; there is always something thick and faintly feral in her, the trace of bees on the skin.
Used sparingly she is a heart-base bridge, lending erotic warmth and the slow drag of nectar to florals and ambers alike.
