I have ALL the BPAL, all of it!

[beelikej]

Received my package from the Black Phoenix Alchemy Lab today and they added loads of extra samples \o/

I ordered bottles of Drink Me and Judith Victorious (yes, because of the name and the story behind the painting the scent was inspired by;) plus 6 imps (5 for me and 1 for the lovely tanisafan. Bpal added SIX more scents to my package. I love them so. Here's a list of my current collection of perfume oils:
Bottles
DRINK ME [Mad Tea Party]
A sort of mixed flavour of cherry-tart, custard, pine-apple, roast turkey,
toffee, and hot buttered toast.

JUDITH VICTORIOUS [The Salon - Exhibit II]
Painting: Judith Victorious, Lucas Cranach the Elder.
Chestnut blossom, lily of the valley, King mandarin, French magnolia, and
golden musk.

GLUTTONY [Sin & Salvation - The Seven Deadly Sins]
Thick, sugared and bloated with sweetness. Dark chocolate, vanilla,
buttercream, and hops with pralines, hazelnut, toffee and caramel.
*DISCONTINUED december 2010*
I could cry over this. Seriously. This scent is ME and I only have a couple of drops left. :'-(

BLISS [Bewitching Brews]
A shot of pure, self-indulgent euphoria! A scent that is very, very wicked
in its own way: the serotonin-slathered scent of pure milk chocolate.


Imps (Samples)
AGLAEA [Excolo - The Gratiae]
Splendour. Three golden ambers, bright musk, peach wine and myrtle.
re-ordered this, because I couldn't decide if I wanted a whole bottle of this or of Dorian (see below)

CHIMERA [Bewitching Brews]
The fiery, volatile scent of cinnamon, thickened by myrrh, honeysuckle, and
copal.

BREAD-AND-BUTTER-FLY - [Mad Tea Party - The Garden of Live Flowers]
Bread, lightly buttered, with weak tea, cream, and a lump of white sugar.

THE LOTUS TREE [Rappaccini's Garden]
Honey-sweet and soporific.

DORIAN - [Sin & Salvation]
A Victorian fougere with three pale musks and dark, sugared vanilla tea.
see comment above: should I get a whole bottle of this or of Aglaea?

Extra imps
THANATOPSIS [Ars Moriendi]
A meditation upon death. Inspired by William Cullen Bryant's poem. A deep,
solomn earthen scent containing pine, juniper and musk.

QUEEN OF SHEBA [Ars Amatoria]
A bounty of golden honeyed almonds and a whisper of African and Middle
Eastern spices.

THE TEMPTATION [Ars Amatoria]
An expression of love, adoration, and desire, of beauty that transcends
mortal desire and piques the interest of hell itself: attar of rose, calla
lily, palmarosa, peach blossom, wisteria, rice flower, and black musk.

JACK [Bewitching Brews]
The scent of warm, glowing jack o'lanterns on a warm autumn night: true
Halloween pumpkin, spiced with nutmeg, glowing peach and murky clove.

FALLEN [Sin & Salvation]
A regal scent, glowing darkly, elegant and patrician, but unfathomably
desolate. Cherubic white sandalwood and golden musk with a dark halo of
amber, a breath of imperial florals, unbending woods, and the shadow cast
by vetiver and violet.

DRAGON'S REVERIE [Ars Draconis]
Dominant, passionate, devastating. Dragon's blood and five deep musks.

And I still have a bit left in these imps:
SNAKE OIL - [Ars Amatoria]
Magnetic, mysterious, and exceedingly sexual in nature. A blend of exotic
Indonesian oils sugared with vanilla.

EAT ME - [Mad Tea Party]
Three white cakes, vanilla, and red and black currants.

HOLLYWOOD BABYLON - [Wanderlust]
The essence of innocence shattered: glittering Egyptian amber and
heliotrope, infused with the sweetness of strawberry and vanilla - dragged
into debauch by lusty red musk and a dribble of black cherry.


*happy sigh* I'm gonna smell sooo delicious :-)

Oooo I forgot about that sample! *bounce*

Notice how I sneakily left it off the list above, as to not remind you of its scent;) Be patient: I'm not gonna make you wait until we finally meet up again, but I have other stuff to sent you that I don't have yet;)

I'm wearing Agleae and it does indeed make me feel splendid \o/
