    Beaver Moon 2005

    It smells wonderfully sweet in the imp. Like vanilla frosting and cheesecake all at once. Unfortunately, my body doesn't do well with foody scents and this goes to vanilla candle on me. Damn my chemistry. I might have to keep the imp for sniffing

    Kether

    sweetly spiced almonds! This is beautiful. It dries to a really nice spiced almond scent with perhaps a bit of cream or vanilla, honey, and a tiny bit of cherry. This is only the second Sephiroth I've tried, the other being Hod, but I'm definately going to have to try all of them, as both Kether and Hod are both beautiful

    The Devil

    Dark, musky, and animalistic. Possibly patchouli or black musk, I can't tell. I'm not good a picking out civet, so I'm not sure if its in this, but this is a very dark, heavy blend. I'm not getting any of the cinnimon. Just dark musk and patchouli

    Hod

    This is like a spicier, creamier O. O went all powdery on me, but this retains the initial smell of O without the powder. This is possibly the love child of O and The Lion

    Jacob's Ladder

    Sweet Amber! This reminds me very much of The Lion, but sweeter. I get the Amber, benzoin, and tonka. I think this is an amber scent that I like. I think I might have to snag a bottle before it goes away

    Numb

    Like everyone else has said, Violets. It reminds me of Ingrid Magnussen in "White Oleander". She was always described as smelling of violets and ash, which is exactly what I get from Numb. It is definately haughty and cold.

    The Hanged Man

    Oh, this is so pretty Slightly spicy, slightly sweet. I'm having trouble picking out the individual notes. Its like spiced apples and figs, with a little bit of lotus and cloves. The apple isn't screaming at me, like in the Hesperides. This is like slow cooked apples, till they are soft and mushy. This is definately my favorite tarot oil so far. This scent makes me feel warm. I feel like its a winter scent that should be work with comfortable clothes that are way too big while curled up on the couch in front of a fire.

    Judgement

    This smells familiar. I think I've smelled another BPAL oil that smells like this. Its all black patchouli with a little sandalwood on me. A little resinous as well. Its very pretty

    March Hare

    This is really strong! Its mostly apricot with the slight spice of clove. I didn't think I was going to like this, but its quite yummy! I think I might get some for my mother to use as a room scent, as she likes oranges and cloves around christmas time

    Le Serpent Qui Danse

    At first I get something rather green, yet floral, with a touch of vanilla. The violet and the gardenia are fighting a bit, and the vanilla is in the background. Its odd, but I enjoy the scent on my body, but when I bring my wrist up to my nose, I don't like it. *edit* It is starting to soften up quite a bit into a nice vanilla floral and I enjoy it even bringing my wrist up to my nose

    Dragon's Blood

    I didn't get any cherry candy or roses. Its a soft sweet scent that even my sister liked.

    Empyreal Mist

    This is so pretty. Very wispy, sweet, and soft.. I can't pick out all the notes, but it smells very familiar. I do get a tiny bit of citrus and tea. but its mainly just very sweet

    Lorelei

    primarily Neroli and sandalwood. It dries to a nice perfumy womanly scent

    Shill

    To me, it smells very very buttery, much like the butterness in Jack. On me, it is buttered popcorn on the skin, but still more butter than corn and there's a slight sweetness to it. I was nervous about trying this, as I just discovered I'm allergic to corn, but this is nice. A nice buttery scent

    Black Cat

    It smells of chocolate mint in the vial. On the skin: It starts out minty, maybe eucalyptus. Then it dries and the roses come out. Mostly roses, but still with the mintyness in the background Go away roses! There is something volatile in this. Its starting to smell like pickles. It keeps morphing. Its becoming pretty faint now. Trying this was a bizarre experience

    Van Van

    This is definately a "Don't fuck with me" scent. I was very tired this morning, but now I feel like roaring. The scent is herbal and green. I think I'm getting a bit of fennel with a bit of lemongrass. I'm not sure what sweet grass is, so maybe that is what I'm mistaking for fennel. It has a very familiar scent.

    Blood Countess

    Maybe I'm on crack, but i smell creamy grapefruit. In the vial, its berries and gardenia. A creamier version of Jester. This has many stages. Citrus fruity, then its berries and gardenia...........then a little bit of roses come out. The roses don't take over, they compliment. This is a pretty, fruity, floral

    Red Devil

    Kind of spicy and citrusy. It started to smell a little sweaty after a bit. Its a little spicy and sweet. I can't really describe it. I fell asleep with it on and had really really strange dreams

    Alone

    Spicy Patchouli. I almost get a cinnamon note when i put it on, but then it dries to a nice spicy patchouli. Must be the cardamom. Its very pretty and seems like a very personal scent. I have to bring my wrist up to my nose to really smell it. Beautiful scent

    Trick or Treat

    In the vial, its all carmel and it makes me hungry. On my skin, it turns into cinnamony cookies. I was hoping the carmel would stay when it dried. but it didn't

    Lenore

    A dark and bellicose scent that speaks of loss, lament, bitterness and breast-beating woe: thick black vetiver, sharp white musk and lemon peel, smoke and saffron, patchouli, thyme and black plum. *drools* In the vial, I can't really describe it. Wet dark vetiver. patchouli, and a little lemon On my skin, its chocolate, right away, almost like how Penny Dreadful does on me. Then it mellows to this beautiful dark scent. I get the Snake Charmer/Torture King reference, but its darker than both. I think I'm going to add a bottle to my order tomorrow when I order Red Phoenix

    Embalming Fluid

    In the vial, its all lemon, but once it dries on my skin, its all green tea, with lemon and a touch of white musk. This is primarily green tea on my, but its nice. This would be a great light summer scent

    Beatrice

    Spicy floral with a hint of vanilla. Its pretty, but fairly faint once it dries. The rose isn't blaring like it does in other scents. It kind of has a sinus clearing affect when I sniff it too close

    Lucy's Kiss

    Unfortunately no victorian spices. This was all rose, rose ROSE. Why oh why does my body amp up roses so much? *cries*

    The Lady of Shalott

    Oh this is so pretty! I bought a bottle of it unsniffed for my mum for christmas because she loves gardenia. I snagged an imp of it from a forumite just to smell it before it got here. She's going to LOVE this Its all gardenia and water blossoms. I let her sniff my wrist without telling her I bought her a bottle. She DOES love it
