I smell the frankincense right away, the lily peaks out a bit. It smells like a church, at first. As drydown comes along I can smell the rose geranium almost exclusivly. Most likely because thats the scent I can relate to most. My mom and mother in law both have this growing like mad around their home. The scent reminds me of a hot summers day just after the dew of morning has evaporated from the flowers. A walk through the garden at grannies. This blend also is similiar to Tempest it seems to have that aqua feel to it. Maybe influenced by holy water?

This is Beautiful, out of the imps I've tried so far this one is my favorite. It has a gentle strength to it. I thought it had gardenia in it, that must be the stephanotis, I love the smell of orchid and this oil is just brilliant. Definatly worth a try.

I really enjoyed this one out of the bottle, but an hour after I had applied on my skin the fragrance turned sweet on me. Djinn was still pleasant but completely different than it was out of the bottle. This is the morphing power of BPAL oils. Not sure if I would buy a big bottle but the sample is definatly a keeper. I'm curious to see how it changes on my skin in the passing weeks.

Mmm a sweet scent with with both light and dark creating balance Out of the bottle I smelled honey and wine, as it is applied it gets darker more musky. The chocolate is very slight, I can barely smell it. There are so many different notes that they seem to all blend together really well. I knew I would love this one, Its a light scent that int too light. It seems to be lasting pretty good on my too.

Holy fuck this is good stuff. When I got my package this is the one I went to first. Once I applied it my husband came up to smell me and said I smelled just like a cherry tootsie pop. It does remind me of a smell from my childhood, like a new doll or something. Out of the bottle I thought, *it smells like eclipse* As it absorbed into my skin a bit I could smell honey almond granola with REAL cream, you know the thick kind without all the additives, almost like butter but not. I love this one and it had OK staying power. Lasted about 3-4 hours were I could smell it. Glad I bought a big bottle of this one!!

Oils to relax, calm, soothe, restore your sanity...
Nadirah replied to Shollin's topic in Recommendations
I wear Oneiroi on my stress days and it helps alot. -
Sometimes the oils have been stored in warmer/colder places. Especially imps, since they are not in cobalt bottles need to be kept in a cold and dark place. Plus once someone tries on the oil they can help but contaminate the rest of the bottle. I've noticed it too, and maybe they were made in a different batch.

Hi Michelle!! Welcome !!

Just gives me more time to save up some more cash for the new scents!! Your gonna stop using CCnow right?

this is really a great scent, Very strong and long lasting, can almost be overpowering if too much is applied. Gives me a great feeling of Deja vu in a veracious way. I smell no florals or citrus in this, what stands out most to me is amber and musk. They blend together incredibly well. My little imp from october is nearly gone and I am contemplating a bigger bottle. Not sure if I can live without this one...

A beautiful oil to capture the essence of Justice! Smells like Violet? Maybe tonka bean? Amber? Whatever it is, I find myself drawn to this one alot. Its light but not too light. It does have that touch of floral. Its hard to say what is in this. Its got a dry edge to it, one of my favorite tarot oils! Yay Beth!

Light, gentle, subtle scents for the office, class, expectant moms
Nadirah replied to Cegirls's topic in Recommendations
Boabhan Sith is a great one, so is Pain. Do you know if you are allergic to anything? I know I'm allergic to juniper, which sucks balls since I love Burial. I have to save it for days when I am feeling exceptionally healthy. -
I usually finish a fragrance when I use it to slather on myself or in my oil burner. This takes me about 3 months. This is for performance, I reapply very often before and after performances, They go really fast for me. But it gives me the opportunity to try more!! I try to keep them in catagories, The daily; These last a while, I use them only as perfume 6-8 months(O, Sol, Capricorn) dancing, These go by fast, 3 months (seraglio, Dragons Heart) sleeping, Every night perfume 6-8 months (Oneiroi, Yuki Onna) But then I do switch oils to suite my mood. Also some oils are stronger on me than others so It all depends. I just like have a large selection!!

Just so I know, since my list is getting longer.... Are the 5 ml gonna be $13? How about the 10ml? Will their price change?
