Algiers Luck Oil

Algiers is a regionally-specific old New Orleans style hoodoo formula designed to bring luck in both love and money. It was particularly favored by gamblers who planned to spend the night out getting lucky - in more ways than one.

It still has an element of "fast" in it, ingredients-wise, but if Red Fast Luck clocks in at about 90 mph, Algiers comes in at a perhaps more dignified 70 or so. But when we want fast results, we can't always expect deep and long-lasting ones, and when we want luck that sticks around for a while, we can't always expect fast. And that relationship holds true here, as well - if Algiers shows up to the party a few minutes later than Red Fast Luck, well, it sticks around a little longer, too.

It's quite likely neither will still be there in the morning, of course. But where Red Fast Luck invariably pulls the Irish goodbye, you just might, if you're attentive, see Algiers' half-grin and tip of the hat on his way out the door.

(Honestly, I'm just having a bit of fun. There's not a lot of difference between these two oils in terms of how they work. If you already have one, I can't imagine why you'd need the other as well. But if you have neither and you're trying to pick one, I guess the biggest difference is really probably scent, and still, it's not a big difference. Algiers smells just ever so slightly less like candy than Red Fast Luck. Neither one is particularly dignified, but they know how to have a good time. Algiers might be the slightly older Creole cousin who's got just a little more experience - maybe five months older, tops :) Oh, and Algiers is purple.)
