Well, I obtained some Samhainophobia. And, as luck would have it, it was shipped with an imp's ear of Death Cap. I like both of them, and may very well use one or both. But I still think I will order imps of most of the suggestions here and see what I like best. Because they all sound promising. Thanks again everyone, I'm sure one of these (or a combo of them) will wind up being perfect. Now to work on getting a hold of them all... Oh, and paperrose, I read the description for Cheshire Cat, and I agree that it's a perfect fit for the other Mike Myers.

Hm... I was seriously thinking about scrapping any pumpkin aspects, and after this I think I will. Pumpkin evokes Halloween, but I don't really see Michael Myers smelling like some kind of evil dessert or something, lol. Thanks for doing the experiment. Tell-Tale Heart does sound intriguing... I'll add it to my growing list. I went ahead and purchased some Samhainophobia off of eBay, because I didn't want to miss the opportunity to snag it... But I may also wind up buying some imps of all the stuff suggested here. Just to see what works.

Yeah, the dirt/decay thing is definitely something I'd want... Burial sounds ok, but there's that whole "floral offerings to the dead" aspect of it that I'm not sure about. So Black Annis may be a better option. The Blood Garden also sounds good. Thanks. As for the other Mike Myers, I wonder what scent would match him? Something really vibrant and citrus-y, I'd imagine.

Wow, yeah, this combo does sound fitting. On my list of possibilities it goes. Thanks.

Samhainophobia sounds nearly perfect, which I suppose makes sense as it's meant to evoke "the fear of Halloween." Samhain and October also sound promising. I found a few bottles of Samhainophobia on eBay, so it's a definite possibility. It doesn't include any pumpkin scent, but I'm not married to the idea of pumpkin - I just figured it was a "Halloweeny" scent and hence would compliment Michael Myers. I like the description of Troll quite a bit, so I'll add that one to my "possibilities" list. The High Priest Not to Be Described does sound a bit refined for Michael.... Almost something I could see myself using for a Pinhead costume, actually. Hm.... All in all, some excellent suggestions, thanks. I'm definitely open to more recommendations, but right now I'm somewhere between Troll, The Black Tower, and Samhainophobia - with a strong leaning towards the latter.

Hm... This one does sound interesting. Wonder if it would work together with Jack?

Thanks. I looked at Blood, and it may be a possibility... What I'm mainly looking for is something that embodies death, darkness, Halloween, and maybe a hint of insanity. There are a lot of scents that have elements of these, but so many of them have floral aspects, and I'm not sure how well that would work. I want the fragrance to scare people and creep them out almost as much as the costume itself. If a scent existed which evoked graveyard dirt, rotting leaves, blood, and maybe a little pumpkin, and avoided anything flowery, I'd probably get it in a second. But alas, such a combo doesn't seem to be available... Maybe I should get some imp's ears and experiment with layering or blending. Perhaps something that involves Jack, Burial, and maybe Omen? Not sure how nicely those would mix, tho. I'm very inexperienced at this stuff.

I'm looking for a fitting scent to enhance my Michael Myers costume this year. Ive found quite a few that sound fitting, but I'd love some feedback from anyone who's actually smelled some of them. So does anyone know of a good BPAL fragrance that would embody the essence of Myers?
