    Snake Bouquet

    I too get an initial note of carnations when wearing this! But it changes almost immediately to a lovely slightly spicy floral with a hint of Snake Oil. Now that my bottle is nearly a year old, I had expected the Snake Oil to be more apparent. This blend is lovely and very wearable in closer quarters than most of my others.

    Dreamward

    I sampled this instead of springing for the full size bottle straight away, because sometimes lemon verbena can get a little overwhelming for me. applying this today I got that trademark TAL scent, a hit of lemon verbena, but then a scant few minutes later POOF! it's a floofy lavender pillow! perfection.

    Les Pleurs

    INTERESTING to read the previous review as I come here to say Les Pleurs is like the full blown *Fragrance* version of the Terrible Moon scent note palette. almost seems "perfumey" or "mainstream" in terms of a BPAL scent, but not in a bad way. cannot put my finger on what is being used for the ochre note, and I suspect some alchemy went into antiquing the myrrh. the smoke/ash/stone aspects of the blend are super mild for me.

    Lucky Hand Root

    I dig this root! and it does indeed smell like freshly dug up roots while the oil is wet. at first the orchid is overshadowed by the earthy roots, but then it begins to bloom and the scent really balances out.

    Terrible Moon: Cardamom and Black Amber

    compared to Terrible Moon itself, this is quite a stark scent. much closer to poking your nose in the cardamom jar on the spice rack. the amber is giving it a bit of a posh silhouette but there is nothing sweet or cozy happening here. good to layer with the moon if you want to boost the spice factor for sure.

    Terrible Moon

    well at least for once in 2026 I can say: this is not at all terrible! tremendously comforting, as advertised. surprisingly not super beeswaxy, but unsurprisingly the wool is not going to let you forget it's there. it does play exceedingly nicely with the other notes - the sandalwood in particular! - it's just not a note you can hide. also, I don't find it truly milky, it's like the idea of milk is present. everything comes together rather gorgeously! gets a bit sweeter as it dries. a very soft, well-blended scent that feels like a hug.
