whisperstilled Report post Posted November 11, 2016 (edited) A plant of true arcane power, mandrake has been used in a multitude of ways by witches, magicians and thaumaturgists for eons to many, many vastly different ends. Whole pieces are carried for protection, or are used in poppet magick. Ground herb can be utilized in spells for money, lust or defense. The lore of the mandrake does not limit it to magickal use. The root was chewed as a simple anasthesia, and it has been widely employed as a sleep drug. In Imp: Green and strange, even aquatic. What? Wet: Green, more mellow. I'm surprised - I didn't expect this scent to be my cup of tea, but it's nice. Dry: There's that fresh root scent everyone's been talking about! Very earthy - I can almost smell BPAL's soil note in this. Not for me, but not bad. Edited March 18, 2017 by Whisperstilled Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ShadowEtienne Report post Posted June 24, 2023 Earthy, herbal, and cedar roots. It's interesting, but not really what I want to smell like. I do get something that seems to border on patchouli without being evil on my skin the way patchouli can be, so that's interesting. I think that it achieves what it's going for but that isn't really my thing. I'll be passing the imp I got with a forum order along to a friend who it is more appealing to.
