I second the Centzon Totochtin. I recently got in a local trade, and it's very nice. (And not that you need more ideas, but if you want something chocolatey smelling, Vice is intensely so.)
Sin is also lovely- I liked it enough that I ordered a bottle of it. Sadly, though, the batch that came in the bottle does not seem to smell as good as the batch in my imp from a year ago (more musky and slightly bitter, not warm and cinammony like the imp). So it might not be one you want to order just at the moment.
Embalming fluid smells extremely like Elizabeth Arden's Green Tea - I like it.
Titania I've tried when my roommate had it - it's a rather crisp, nice floral, but since I don't much care for florals, it didn't do much for me.
Are some of those very top ones new? I just got my order from June, and seemed like they posted some new and intriguing things shortly after I ordered.
I may have some imps up for grabs at some point, but not until after Firth and Mirth- I might as well let anyone interested smell them, though since you can't come, I can let you know what I can spare and see what you'd like. I still trying to decide what to part with anyway at this point. The only one on your list, though, is the Embalming Fluid, as I got an extra imp of it. But I like it well enough that I'm not sure I don't want to hang on to it- I'm in the midst of seeing how it compares to some of the other tea-based scents.
