Perfumes and colognes are worn on the person as a magical scent, used to feed mojo hands and keep them working, and. in some cases. they are appropriate offerings to ancestors and other spirits.
Some spiritual practitioners make their perfumes and colognes up from scratch for clients, but most root doctors -- at least since the 19th century -- have relied upon commercially purchased colognes and perfumes that are scented with magically active flowers, herbs, seeds, and roots. Among the most popular of the commercial perfumes and colognes are Hoyt's Cologne, Hoyt's Bergamot, Florida Water, Jockey Club perfume, Double Luck perfume, Kananga Water cologne, Rose Cologne, and Orange Blossom Cologne.
Many perfumes and colognes have long standing reputations in the Conjure community for the effectiveness in drawing or getting rid of a specific condition, Hoyt's cologne for instance, is used for drawing luck in gambling as well as love, Kananga Water is used in ancestor work, and Florida Water is considered an all-around altar offering that can be used to cleanse, protect, or bring peace to a location of a person. A reputable conjure worker understands the varied purposes ascribed to these different products, whether they sell the commercial varieties or make their own.
Although colognes and perfumes are ready to use straight from the bottle, there is also a strong tradition of "doctoring" them with added ingredients, to enhance their energy for magical purposes. For instance, Hoyt's Cologne may be given a lucky money-drawing boost with added pieces of golden pyrite gravel, while Rose Cologne may be enhanced with pieces of lovage root, spikenard root, and Queen Elizabeth root to bring out its love-drawing abilities. Your rootworker may fix and prepare a commercial cologne for you, or instruct you to place certain herbs, roots, flowers, minerals, or other curios into a bottle of a specific brand of perfume or cologne, as he or she deems appropriate to your case.
