The first is easy: Maeterlinck (referring to Maurice Maeterlinck).
I suspect the second is musc amber, "amber musk." I suppose it could be museau amber, "amber muzzle," but the spacing for the letters doesn't seem quite right and the meaning isn't as obvious.

Yeah. I've never run across them but they look to have a pretty extensive catalog. Might help in filling out your collection.

Yeah, they've got so much material. I'm downloading all their pdfs and comparing them to the ones I have on file. There's so much there that I didn't even know existed. Crowley's spiritual works are common finds, but these guys have been collecting and key entering all his poetry and prose too.
