Score Magical Powers With These Talisman Necklaces

Imagine you had your own magical fragrance, an olfactory protector that warded away evil spirits, guarded against grief, and kept indecision, tension, and fatigue at bay. We're not chatting about a brew boiled up by Hermione Granger, but instead about a concoction made by Brooklyn jewelry designer Emily Hirsch, who's just introduced a collection, Talon, comprised of aromatic amulet necklaces. The silver, bronze, or glass vial-and-chains are delicate but tough—each is individually cast, with a scent under the stopper (the cork can be removed so you can dab on the scent). There are two options: The Talon signature scent, a heady, dark, and tantalizing miasma of tobacco leaf, scotch, and worn-in leather that's especially effective in combating nervousness and anxiety. If you're looking for something a lil' fresher, go with the Avalon—it's fresh and innocent with a whiff of new grass, earthy tuberose, and honeyed jasmine—a combo that kicks ass against suspicion and shyness. So, whether you want to channel Cate Blanchett in Lord Of The Rings , or get a new lucky charm, your enemies won't know what hit them. And, even if you think this voodoo is all a load of mumbo jumbo—hey, your neck will never look better.
