    In Night When Colors All to Black Are Cast

    2025 edition smelling stank & dank. Fades to a sweetness. Compared to 2020 edition, they do not compare. Looking forward to this aging. So far it's loud, but lovely. Now that it has faded it smells like a heady agarwood incense!! That was a lovely surprise!!

    Titus Andronicus

    One of my top 3 favorites. It's all spice, & resins. When I sniff I imagine a mage or wizard burning incense while grinding herbs. 🤍 Scent is heavy, throw is far, & it lasts long too. Another lovely thing about this oil is how it leaves a heavy, sweet scent behind on my hoodies.

    Nyarlathotep

    Obtained my bottle in 2023. This is a comforting green scent. My impression is that it has a gentle smell of hospital soap, clean linens! Also has a kick to it similar to lemongrass. Throws far, but doesn't last long tho.

    Aperotos Eros

    This is a close #1 favorite for me. Absolutely spirited away when I sniff it. It's a full experience of going into a Witchcraft Shop. I first obtained an imp, & over the years it has turned syrupy. Hoping this happens with my bottle. Overall, I get divine incense burning, whiffs of herbs, & resins. A big cloud of magick! I've had this bottle a month & have already used half of it. For sure need to buy more!
  5. Divine!! I can't get enough of it, & you can only use so much. Lol It's sweet, & very berry. When I first opened the bottle I smelled sweet black orchid & dry wine berries. It was not for me. But I used some & the scent is completely different. The dry wine resemblance goes away & you're left with a heady, kind of heavy & musk-like scent. Overall it's sweet, & juicy, with a crystalline musk, even incense-like. Throw is far, length is long too.

    La Sylphe de Forêt Noire

    I am in love with this one. It wasn't anything like I was expecting, too. I thought it would be pine, moss, earthy notes. Not at all like that, however surprisingly addictive. I get a reminder of Mouse's Long & Sad Tale. Also reminds me a little bit of Dorian, even Midnight Mass! Overall impression is something rooty akin to patchouli root, but that's not in this blend. The myrrh is faint, & not too syrupy. This blend is soft, sweet, warm, & there's something like a tea note floating around as well. Throw isn't far, but it also has good wear length. I'm hoping this ages nicely. I need another bottle because this is going to be my Fall season scent now!

    Myrrh, Black Amber, and Teakwood

    Ok so I've kept this & aged it. It smells addictive now. A little heavy wood, sweet & resinous myrrh, with that lovely ghostly black Amber. Makes me think of a sophisticated version of Haunted. The black Amber is like cola, & mixed with the teakwood it brings kind of a musky, powdery wooden quality. I am in love with it, & so glad I kept it!

    Endurance

    Clean & herbal. Smells like chamomile tea to me.

    Haunted Housewife

    A beautiful, clean floral with dusty musk. After it dries a bit it turns into a creamy musk. Much different than first application! I think of my grandma's linen closet when I sniff this. However, it also smells like a freshly cut watermelon!

    Come With Me, Loving Me to Death

    Dusty orchid, breathy almond with cacao, & a weighty musk. Smells lovely, has great throw & length. A great date night scent!

    Le Jour des Morts

    I get wet florals, & a whiff of incense. Love wearing it to bed.

    Dragon Chorus

    This smells so green, grassy, & herbal. Found this lovely scent & I found it on the Etsy BPAL. Grassy, patchouli smell dominant. I get sweet notes later when it fades.

    Rapture

    *whoops double comment*

    Rapture

    The roses & mandarin come out first. A little bit later it turns powdery fresh & clean scent. The Myrrh & Bergamot play together nicely, but I def smell the Bergamot more than the other notes.

    Early Experiments with Photography

    In love with this. It's as gentle as silk, smells light, & floral, but also has some depth too!!

    Collapsing Mosquito Netting

    Dewy, wet, freshly cut morning glory petals & sophisticated lilac. I fall asleep with this one on. Just wanna sniff it nonstop. It's a delightful blend. Not too heavy of a floral, but just right balance.

    Myrrh, Black Amber, and Teakwood

    This was a miss. I'm so broken hearted because I was hoping for a sweet & heavy myrrh, with some kind of sweet wood, & radiant Amber. Instead this is warm, myrrh-faint, & toasty. Not really what I thought would be.

    Our Lady of Pain

    Right out the bottle & on the skin I get that lovely patchouli! & It's a smelly kind, in a good way. Some dank patch lol. Anyways I also smell the white lavender & opium tar. I'm hoping with age the black orchid will become more prominent.

    In His Hands All Thy Cruelties Thrive

    This is a warm scent to me. The clove stands out with the leather. Overall this is almost a spice like scent, but it has warmth to it.

    Monastery Garden in the Snow

    Smells like a classic laundry soap! I'm not mad about that! It's very fragrant, & has great throw. Fades to a dusty powdery scent. Overall impression is flowers peaking out of half melted snow.

    Hel v6

    Received as a freebie with a large order!! This is exciting. I smell fruits & florals. There's a static mint in it too.

    The Midnight Carnival

    Bought 2023. Very complex, but breathy/airy like copal would be. I'm thinking that's the Agarwood mixing with the neroli. The cacao note I was scared of, but you know what? It's smells great & is faint enough to add depth & plays nice with the other notes. That teak & myrrh is sweet too. This one is going to age nicely.

    Divinities Implacable, Doom-Laden

    Simple yet it has the same complexity & warmth of Hyakki Yagyō. Smells faintly like it, but unique. I'm in love. This is a 2nd favorite to Hyakki Yagyō!!

    Palo Santo and Patchouli

    This is wild! It smells sweet, & faintly herbal patchouli with that whiff of smoke. I smell like a dirty hippie & I've never been happier!!

    Oakmoss

    Red Oakmoss, Cedarwood, & Sweet Patchouli is available for sale right now. Very fragrant blend. Loving it!
