smell me

I think I managed to nail down my Black Phoenix Alchemy Lab sampler picks. I want more - the short list was about 30 things - but I'm going to try these first. Of course, sarcasma had to go and link me to The Underground Scent Plant, and now I want things from there, too. It's all about smelling pretty, yo.


Gluttony - Thick, sugared and bloated with sweetness. Dark chocolate, vanilla, buttercream, and hops with pralines, hazelnut, toffee and caramel.

Bordello - Bawdy plum with amaretto, burgundy wine and black currant.

O - Amber and honey with a touch of vanilla.

Baobhan Sith - Grapefruit, white tea, apple blossom and ginger.

The Apothecary - Tea leaf with three mosses, green grass, a medley of herbal notes, and a drop of ginger and fig.

Three Witches - Warm cinnamon, husky clove and white pepper.

How can you tell I don't often try new oils? There's no consistency at all. Well, other than the fact that I feel like I could eat or drink all of them. Seems awfully appropriate that one of them is named Gluttony, no?

Mmmmm. Sounds yummy. I think I might add Baobhan Sith to my next order -- I really like the fruity scents. And I will be anxiously awaiting your review of The Apothecary. I love figs, would happily smell like one, and the combination of ingredients in that oil is intriguing.

I'm very excited about Baobhan Sith - it's not a combination I've really seen elsewhere.

And I will definitely be reviewing for everyone. :)
