    Ether

    As soon as I saw the name of this scent I wanted it (oh, Final Fantasy, I blame you!). So, I got my imp off a fellow forum member and immediatly when I put it on it reminded me of another scent BPAL related. This continued to bother me for a long time before guessing that it does smell slightly similiar to Mad Hatter before it disapates into nothingness (that kind of cool mintyness) then I figured it out! On me this has the dry down of Mad Hatter after hours of wear with a dandylion like scent from Fairy wine with the muskyness (and slight citrus) of Croquet (which was what it reminded me from the start). And I LOOVVEEE Croquet (and the lab knows it I think because I get imps of it all the time). So, yes I will probrably get a bottle of this in the future, I'm sooo glad this worked out on me! This is definently a spring/summer scent and makes me feel girly. 5/5

    Jailbait

    This scent is such a tease. In the imp I get bubblegum and orange lollipop. This is amazing! On: Hello bubblegum!! And I do so loooovveee that bubblegum scent. After a while the bubblegum calms down and I get the orange lollipop then after a while a strong scent underneath, which I guess is the 'womanly perfume.' Its like a woman was chewing bubblegum, spat it out and replaced it with a lollipop then once it was gone and with it their scents all thats left is the perfume shes wearing. I really like the first and middle stages but hate the last. Guess I could reapply it whenever the last stage starts lurking. I love the scent though! 4.5/5!

    Miskatonic University

    In imp: Mmmm coffee....now I want some -.- On: Wow, really strong throw I can smell it clearly without having to sniff for it, with my hand quite a ways away. I still get the coffee but there is a wood note to it that I cant decide if I really adore but then I get a whiff of the coffee scent and cant complain about it. For some reason theres a sweet note to it that I cant place...ah, oh well it smells like coffee. I dont know about getting a bottle but I'm keeping the imp with a bottle a possibility for the future. After a few hours this just became a very bizarre, strong, and headache inducing scent. And away the imp went!

    Kabuki

    When I opened an order from a fellow forum member my kabuki imp spilt slightly and it smelf amazing!! I thought I was still in love and kept sniffing it, falling for it again and again. Then I tried it on and I loved it but randomly throught the day the scent got to strong for me and made me feel nausious. Whether or not the nausia was from my head ache or Kabuki I couldnt really tell but now whenever I smell it I just get nausious. *sigh* So strange...love to nausia.

    Dragon's Tears

    The dragon's blood in thsi blend goes a bit floral on me and I've come to realise that dragon blood has a slight powdery, baby powder scent on me. This smells a lot like how Pool of Tears smelt on me....and has a sunscreen smell to it. I really had high hopes for this blend but...alas, that sunscreen smell is intolerable for me.

    Tanin'iver

    Sometimes I go into those stores that sell statues of fairy tale creatures as well as incences. This embodies those stores perfectly! Its all I can think about whenever I get a whiff of it off myself. Its not a bad memory but it is kind of weird having random flashes of statues in your head throught the day. I dont think its bottle worthy for me yet but it is growing on me but sometimes it makes me nausious if its to strong.

    The Knave of Hearts

    I do loovvee the black currant from Eat me so I had to try this out, despite that my rose scents are kind of growing eek! In imp: a mix of the roses and blackcurant. On: the rose and the blackcurrant go back and forth before the blackcurrant eventually diminishes and it becomes a rose scent. This is one of the rose scents that are absolutly free of going powdery on me.

    The Pool of Tears

    In the imp: Well, hello there day at the beach, complete with sunscreen smell. On: ugh, the sunscreen comes out more, much to by disapointment. I'll hold on the the imp but I dont know about getting another. I do like the beach reminesence that comes with the scent but I cant see myself wearing it.

    Mad Hatter

    Mad Hatter, you make me happier then you will ever know! I was going to buy a 5ml of this no matter what because it has penyroyal in it which means natural bug repelant when I go do the Disney program in Florida in a few months. In the imp: Blissfully lovely lavender, reminescent of cheshire cat and a minty freashness that I love! On: Doesnt change much and everytime I breath in that freashness it makes me feel a slight chill, so lovely! Definently bottleworthy!!! 5/5!!

    Drink Me

    In imp: Well hello there buttered popcorn smell. It reminds me of going to the movies On: After a while there almost seems to be a vanilla undertone, which happens a lot on my skin but still. The tart comes out and a bit of a custard tone to it and the butter smell isnt as powerful in a couple hours. Rating: I cant really decide on it. So perplexing. I like it though so 3/5

    Dilution and Carrier Oils

    Thank you, I'll go look there.

    Dilution and Carrier Oils

    Yeah, none of the craft stores seem to carry them. I get mine at sunburstbottle.com. I'm not sure where to get them other than that site. Thank you I searched around a bit and couldn't find any container around 1 ml in size/capacity. Is there a specific url?

    Dilution and Carrier Oils

    Where does one find the little vials? The little plastic vials the imps come in, I mean. I checked Michaels and it wasnt there

    Black Pearl

    I bought this as an imp from the lab a month or so ago, dissapointed that it didnt have that coconut scent to it like I was hoping for. But I've worn it recently to find that coconut has finally surfaced. Before all I got was the iris, which I dont hate but I'm not a real floral person unless theres something else non floral-esq in the blend. Now I get coconut, iris and everynow and again hazelnut, something I didnt get at all before. I also think that my skin sucks up certain musks and I think white musk may be one of them because I only got maybe a small hint of it before wondering if I actually smelt it at all, if that makes sence. I'm definently getting a bottle of this when I can because the older it gets the more amazing and beutiful it seems to be. 4.8/5

    What do bottles and labels look like?

    I think there are only one label of each? I haven't seen a different version posted at any rate. My Tiki Queen looks just like one other I saw posted as far as I know Same here. I got the one with the hula dancer on it and its the only one I've seen.

    Black Dahlia

    This is going to sound kind of odd but....this scent reminds me of my Grandma, but not in a bad way or anything. She just loved Gardenias and would keep them in her refrigerator to make the flower last longer and make her frige smell nice ^^' While I'm not a big floral person I do have to love just how realistically it all smells. The Gardenia and the jasmine go back and forth on me for dominance so it provides a nice variation. I dont think I'll get a bottle but I will hold on to this beautiful imp.

    Phantasm

    On me this just became cheap lemon cleaning spray, which I'm starting to wonder if lemon just does that on me (like with the 3 other lemon scents I've tried). I was really hoping for the green tea to be more prominent.

    Scarecrow

    In the begining when I put it on it smelt like vetiver, and just that then it ligthtened up into sweet grass. It was the weirdest thing....as though you got to smell the hot wind during the summer and the lovely fresh scent in the spring. Then after a bit Scarecrow began yo-yo-ing back and forth between grass and vetiver.
  19. Word to that! It's beautiful, smoky & exotic & the Yum. Dracoo9, did you get a chance to try Morocco since your last post? I'm curious what incense scents you've tried so far, maybe we can narrow down what it is that amps on you... I'd avoid Scherezade, Anne Bonny, and Penitence - all gorgeous, but very heady. Perhaps Bastet or Xiuhtecuhtli would work for you... the Lion is spectacular, all amber rather than incense... No, I havent tried it yet. So far I've tried Dee, Harlot (it said its based on an incense blend so I dont know if that counts but for having so much rose in it, it deffenently did not smell of rose), Uruk, and Death on a Pale Horse became pure incense on me even though it wasnt listed. And I know this isnt a very big list of scents I've tried with incense in it but thats due to the fact that after the second try I've kind of ruled it part of the 'stay away from...' list along with more earthy and wood scents.

    Love-Lies-Bleeding

    Form: Frimp from the lab. In the imp it smells a lot like Strangler Fig yet..different if that makes any sence. On it smells syrup-y sweet with a cherry smell like medicine. Luckily that medicinal note dissapears for a bit before popping up for a moment later on and so forth. Other then the medicinal moments it smells like chocolate cherries with a woddy sort of tone to it. I cant tell what I think of it..I like it but I dont know if its bottle worthy. And those medicinal notes it has....is rather unpleasant. i'll hold on to it and see if that note will dissapear for good.

    Port Royal

    My Port Royal imp is strangely what I imagined Chimera would smell like PR becomes a very spicy blend with a lovely driftwood scent in the background. I dont get the prostitute perfume though, which might've made this more floral for me but I love this nontheless. Its amazing and I'll be getting a bottle in the future (evening out all of my sweet vanilla blends )

    Casanova

    In the imp was as far as I got. It smelt of pure leather and patchouli, two scents that become way to dark to pull off a feminine scent at all on my skin. Too bad

    Strangler Fig

    Strangler did the weirdest thing of all earth/plant blends. It became foody-sweet! I had to ask around on the forum a little to check and make sure that the imp I had was correct. I have never been able to tolerate anything 'dark, woody and green'. This is very lovely. The woody-ness is very soft in the background where the rest of the scent is a sweet scent. This could possbly become a bottle for me 4.5/5

    Mouse's Long and Sad Tale

    When I first recieved this imp from the lab in December I wasnt impressed with it at all but I hung on to it. In four months' time it is now incredible! I can smell the sweet pea now when originally I couldnt. The vanilla comes out more on the dry-down while the amber plays softly in the background while the sandlewood gives it a deep and warmer tone to it. MLST is trully amazing but I'm still debating its bottle-worthyness.

    Ravenous

    Form: imp from the lab In the imp: Mostly orange with patchouli. Ravenous is the only scent that has had patchouli in it and didnt go out of control dirt smelling on me. At first I did get a dirt smell the most from it but then it mellowed down and I could smell the orange a lot more. It almost becomes a slightly vanilla-ey scent on me. I think I'll hang on to it and see if I'm tempted to get a bottle later. Edit: Eep! This has become Dragon's Milk on me. Very strange....But I like it
