reminds me of some of the early writings and research by the Alchemists movement - the fathers of organic chemistry - one of whom, Henning Brandt, discovered phosphorous when searching for the elusive trickery of recovering gold from base elements. A lot of the alchemists including Brandt were certain that they could derive gold from urine. The golden stream distracted them. Brandt distilled large quantities of fermented human urine, hoping to isolate gold, but instead produced a white, waxy, glowing substance. He boiled down roughly 1,500 gallons of beer-drinker's urine, which he allowed to putrefy for weeks in vats in the basement of his house. The neighbours complained. He distilled the residue with sand and charcoal to produce white phosphorus, which he named phosphorus mirabilis ("miraculous bearer of light") because it glowed in the dark. At the same time our own Robert Boyle met with Daniel Kraft who worked with Brandt. was doing the same with horse urine. He lived in St John's Wood and took delivery of vats of horse pee from the cavalry stables in Ordnance Hill. He distilled the product and accidentally discovered phosphorous which he tried to use to write on a piece of paper using a quill. He intended it to achieve a bright print which was illuminated in dark (consider the value of luminous writing for military and naval purposes) but then there is this in his writings. What it lacks in explanation and justification it makes up for in curiosity. He reports of the severe burning sensation "if it be spread upon the privy parts".
Disappointingly, this doesn't seem to be a wtw location, yet...
I've been waiting years for a chance to use my pun.
Liked Pissey Mistake and Christian Eeyore but found Yves Saint-Martin Black Opium (one for old skool racing fans) recherché.
Recherché is my middle name - literally.
Reminds me of my uncle, driving me to a nightclub when I was 14: "you smell like a horse cock". Probably right, but XS worked in the 90s.
Is there anything specifically dangerous about horse urine?
I mean, it's got to be a pretty punchy aroma, but is it actually dangerous?

How does one know what horse cock smells like?
