Talk about fast acting!! Just about everytime that I use this I get fast money I have to admit that it smells really good, sorta herbaceous with a pine or some kind of wood. It's complex and fun~ I think I might need to get more !

My mind needed some clearing out of the clutter that had been affecting my ability to concentrate. I looked at the TAL website and Middle Pillar stood out as the one that I have to get. (I wanted many others but middle pillar had to be mine) I use it in my locket and to dress candles as I'm meditating. The results are almost immediate. I went from confused and muddled into knowing what my path was and and how to handle the thing to come that maybe I am not supposed to know about just yet. I even opened up an old book (the magicians Workbook) one that I had never read or really looked at, I just bought it when I worked at a used book store because I knew it would come in handy. There was the Middle Pillar ritual in there. So I can say some interesting things are happening since I've been using this oil. It is pretty amazing! As for scent, it is a light floral with just a little bit of spice. I put 3 drops in my bath and it scented the whole bathroom very nicely. Also people have noted how good I smell with my locket on. It really is something to try! Pick it up!

VOODOO blends This formula is used to attract good fortune, peace of mind, safety and speed to travelers. This has a baby powder mixed with some flower scent. I wear it when I am feeling troubled or need some luck and it helps me out. At first out of the bottle my nose couldnt pick up the scent. But as soon as it went on I knew it was there. I like this one.

This is a very soft blend. There is Vanilla and Woods Immediately on my skin and this is a very lovely stage. The staying power is good. It reminds me a bit of Antique Lace, or an older womans scent. At least very sophisticated. There is that little bit of fruit in there but not so much that this becomes foody or fruity, I think the base note of Vanilla stays pretty strong the whole way through with the sandalwood giving it a smoky quality.

Right away there is this Pine Bark scent, its not just pine~ The Pine only lasts for the first 10 minutes or so then it goes into a Super strong, Dark and heavy fragrance. There is some sweetness also finding its way out but only a little. I'm not sure if this is a floral smell or a resinous one (or both) but it is fascinating and unlike any other BPAL that I can think of except Maybe a little like Mum moon ? The notes gave me no indication of if I would like this blend or not, but I told myself if I only buy one Bpal oil in the month of November it would be Capricorn 2007. This is such a lovely scent and I am so happy it works this well on me. I favor this blend of capricorn oil more than the other version (and I love that one) . Great work on this oil Beth!

This is a lovely blend, it smells alot like Mum moon to my nose with the added Jasmine and rose into it. It is a beautiful feminine and dark scent. Smoky and Luscious with just a touch of sweet. I really like this one!

Wow this is Shub mixed with Snake Oil! Very subtle differences! I imagine this will get soo much better with age, The Viper doesnt have that citrusy feel that shub has, it is more like a big peice of cinnamon cookie dough.

This is something I didnt expect. at first it smells of Neroli and Berry, then the amber comes out and it is still sweet~ as time goes buy I can smell more of the notes in this. It reminds me of something I just can't place. It is a lovely scent and I usually do not like scents with any kind of citrus in them but this works. It is potent too, it lasts a while and it slithers into different notes so quick its hard to pin down. But after a couple hours of wearin I can definatly smell the snake oil in it. This is a great oil It was a surprize hit for me, I am so glad I tried it!

The absolute darkest scents? dark, ghostly, haunting, scary,

Loviatar is good. -
Reminiscent of Snow White, not as musky, add some more florals to it and you have Snow Maiden. To me it smells like violets or something that gives it an almost soapy smell. It is potent, I put a bit too much on at first and got a bit of a headache. Everyone else in the house seemed to like the smell of Snow Maiden
-
My first thought on the scent of this was fruitcake. Very foodie at first, but as it wears in I smell incense and something dark, maybe this is the myrrh? Theres a baked smell to it that I can't place. But it really does get better the longer you wear it, it becomes less fruitcake and more incense. Great throw, A great choice.

I can definatly smell the White Flower , but its not all white flower oil (which smells like camphor) Its like a walk through eucalyptus trees while you crush berries underfoot. The camphor smell goes away on me in less than 5 minutes, then it turns into berries and leaves. I am always amazed at what works on some people and what doesnt. I thought after reading the reviews for this I thought I would want to swap this, but its actually very comforting. I'm also curious if this has any of the qualities that the white flower oil has, which is something I always have on hand for my asthma, sinuses, aches and pains. Hmm, I might just stick to the white flower for that, but Carpathian Mts is actually very beautiful when the camphor(or whatever it is) settles down.

hmm, When I first put this on I smelled the Sugar, Oak and Coffee, It reminded me of My old job as a bookseller. Then it turned on me, It smelled like burnt rubber and piss. I was so so sad. Either Its just the wrong time of the month and this aint workin' for me right now. I really thought this could be great but its not. I showered and scrubbed but the scent was still on me, blech, so I had to throw on some Pumpkin Queen for relief. Eh, you can't win em all...
-
Wow, This smells just Like SHUB on me... Its a little spicey, buttery, n green but so so like Shub! Its got nice staying power, seems to hold up well on me. I really like this, and it may just bump Shub outta her place. Beautiful!!
-
I absolutley Love this scent. Its like Samhain but without the apple and pumpkin. Its autumn leaves, Trees and damp earth. There is almost that element in Devils Night that I didnt like, but this isnt that overpowering Sugary Aquatic scent that is in DN. Nothing sweet, except maybe the smell of Pinion. Overall, its definalty something I want to wear alot of!

Glamour: roses and linens with the slightest touch of resins. It lasts and lasts, and I have worn this as a perfume and worked with in spells and such before going out and I have to say that this is incredible. I really can't go into too many details with what has happened when wearing this but I will say that I get noticed. It has the ability to bring out lust in people with whom you may be attracted to (and also those you don't) Of course it helps with what YOUR intent is and how you handle it. But damn, this is my scent to wear when I wanna get some.

Excuse me for a minute... OHYES OH YES OH YEA!! ahmm, well, I put off trying this for a few weeks can you belive that?? Just because when I opened the bottle I smelled um, straight up MAN. I tryed this yesterday and could not believe it. I thought, "no, it must be Clio I put on earlier today" But As I wear it now I smell the wonderfullness of Cedar and leather, oh gods its beautiful. I'm on a Cedar kick lately and this shit rocks my world. It smells almost like cold metal and lavender flowers. Really beautiful, I thought about giving this to my boyfriend but now I wants it! ME! MINE!

Yellow Flowers, Oxalis, Dandelions, field flowers, Weeds. This is what Asphodel brings to mind. Like I'm on an open plain with tons of blooming yellow flowers.There is almost a wax smell to this, maybe even honey could be in this. Its not something I would wear very often, but it is a sunshine smell to me. Lots and lots of sunshine.
-
Right away I get the same feel that Bearded Lady had with me, very jasmine, with something sweet alongside. After I've been wearing it for an hour or so I have to say it smells like Daturas, clean Laundry and Chocolate. It mostly reminds me of coming home late at night and the Datura is putting out its heavy scent and someone is doing laundry in the house (we use the lavender scented soap that sells at Trader Joes) With chocolate on funnel cakes. Its good. I will have to see how it wears over time more. The throw is above average I'd say but not too intense that it makes it so it is unbearable to be around.

Mmm, This is a sweet Dragons Blood right away, after a few minutes you can really smell the myrrh and Patchouli in this. Its still stays sweet but its smokey at the same time. There is also that faint touch of a cinnamon smell in the backround. The throw is average, not light but not heavy either. It seems to last a bit on my skin maybe 2 hours or so. I havent worn a Dragons Blend Scent in so long and I've forgotten how it makes me feel. This is a wonderful scent, I love the blood and smoke that give this its body. (the Patchouli Myrrh and Cassia help too) I have to add that I bit the bullet and order a 10ml of this and I am not regretting it one bit. Tanin'iver is in my top ten. In Two words: Smokey and Sweet.

Of course as everyone most likely can agree this is in the Snake family of scents. Right away I can notice this, as it begins to work with my skin chemistry , I smell Cedar and lemongrass but not overpoweringly so. Maybe it doesnt have these two ingredients, its just what it brings forth on me. It really is beautiful, There is no question that I will be getting more of this and it may just replace Snake Charmer as my most favorite scent of all time. Its sweet, Its smokey, Its spicey, and just a little dirty smelling, everything I love in Bpal together in one bottle. It kind of goes without saying that if you are a Snake Oil/Snake Charmer lover, you need to try Mme. Moriarty. two thumbs up, five stars and ten fuckin' hats.

I think this is just about everything I enjoy in a scent. Its a light floral that becomes smokey without being overpowering. I can smell the Opium smoke an dthe lovely Ginger that is in this. It has good throw but isnt taking over the atmosphere around you. It is almost subtle but not quite. This lasts for about 6 hours on me which is great. Really beautiful blend! So glad I can wear this ! Definatly a keeper

Currently Unemployed and seeking a decent paying part time job that will work with my time restrictions~ I am giving Gainful Employment a try (thanks to a lovely forum member via the swap forum). Right away I notice the heavy clove and cinnamon. There may be other oils in this, but right now it is heavy on the clove with a bit of cinnamon breaking through. Hmm Maybe even a little bit of licorice? As it touches my skin it sends a heat sensation , not burning, but hot. This leads me to believe there may b some black pepper in this. I do not have sensitive skin, so I had no red bits on myself but I can imagine this burni: ng the hell out of someone with sensitive skin, definalty use with caution. After annointing my candles tonight and praying beside my bed I'm hoping to be able to do something I enjoy while still having a life outside work. Will Gainful Employment help? I'm Hoping it does! ETA: Gainful employment is one of my favorite scents in my locket. Really beautiful spicey and warm scent, there is something sharp in there that really cuts through the air. I *love* it! I'll get back to ya on how it goes! Update: I am not a brown noser, I Promise! I will send pics of my nose to you if you arent sure I have to add that I have met, a wonderful person whom has helped me sell alot of my handmade clothing. She tells people about me and buys things for herself, and she is also someone I feel a deep connection with personally. I also have been selling well online and making enough through my business to live on. Ain't that a trip? Plus I anointed my Old mans shirt with it and he has been making BANK now doing what he loves most. Really this stuff works well, Ihave time to go out and have fun, plus I work from home and take care of my son 24/7 Gainful Employment really helped me

Samael is a thick juicy floral. I get Jasmine and tuberose possibly honeysuckle and some kind of fruit, I almost want to say pear but I could be way off. Its honeyed and sweet , its what I've been grabbing when I go out with Ken . He really likes it and it lasts long enough , so that I don't have to reaply. Its sexy and comforting. I have to say that this is one of my most used oils right now, and I am DEFINATLY a Jasmine person, sometimes honey goes yucky on me but jasmine and similiar scents are wonderful on me most of the time, and I love this blend. I am so glad I have a 10 ml!

This one has alot of throw, and lucky for me that I love the earthyness of it! It must have vetiver and patchouli in this and something that takes you deep down in the forest, very lovely on me. I have found myself going back to this chakra oil alot, simply because I can't get enough of the earthy scent. Truly beautiful.
