    Lady MacBeth

    Oh my...this is LOVELY. It's been on my wishlist and some kind person frimped it to me. I smell plum wine. Sweet, luscious and delicious. This one might be bottle-worthy

    Spellbound

    This one is interesting but a tad too strong for me. I do smell rose, very slight. Then this heavy musky scent takes over.

    Eos

    Wow this one is LIGHT. It's almost not there but just enough to where you know you have something on. I think the main scent is the honeysuckle. This is a lovely and very floral scent.

    Shub-Niggurath

    I have a lonely imp I aquired through a sale and decided to be decadent and wear it tonight...just because. This is going to sound weird but I smell coffee initially. Then the ginger comes out. Kind of spicy. It's a lovely scent but not one I'll go crazy searching for more of, especially at the prices I've seen! I'll keep the imp though

    The Ides of March 2005

    This one is really bumming me out. I smell NOTHING. I stuck my nose up close to the bottle...nothing. I put some on my skin...nada. I checked the imp and can see by looking straight down inside that it's not even half way full (boo for me since I just won this on ebay in a lot of 12 other imps). When I turn the bottle over it looks gloppy, doesn't flow well. I'm wondering if whoever decanted (i'm not blaming the person I bought this from, it might be whoever she got it from) this was unscrupulous because honestly, this might as well be labeled "air". I wonder if anyone else had an issue with this one...maybe my nose is just missing every note. I'm going to keep my eye on this thread to see if anyone else ran into this problem.

    Strawberry Moon 2005

    My oh my...if you like strawberry smells, THIS IS FOR YOU. First smell, strawberries and cream....and that's how it stayed for me the entire time. Pure heaven. Soft and delicious. There is nothing obnoxious or heavy about this scent. I can't imagine anyone not liking it...unless you don't like strawberries of course

    Honey Moon

    Honey usually equals *no* for me and when I first applied this oil I thought "uh-oh" because I got the "O" smell (which on me smells like gym socks.) However something wonderful happened...as it started drying down it blossomed into this amazing, powdery, flowery smell. The honey took a back seat. I'm REALLY liking this one a lot. See...just an example of how you think you might not like something and then it turns beautiful

    Chaos Theory III: Strange Attractors

    DCCCXC (890) In the bottle: It smells a lot like the Red Queen. I smell Cherries...sugary cherries jubilee baking on the fire. Once applied: it softens to a powdery sweet boozy almost plum smell. There is a slight spice I can't pick out. I love it! It started off a tad strong but softened up really nicely I wanted to add: the drydown was AMAZING. It morphed into a almondy vanilla cherry soft powdery smell. I can't stop smelling my wrist...this is so addicting. I wish I ordered more. I hope Beth does this again Another edit: I did a swap with someone else and got her feedback regarding my CT3 which I didn't even catch...brown sugar. She's right! Once applied it does get a brown sugary smell to it. I am really in love with my CT

    The Hanging Gardens

    I knew I was going to like this one by the description and I was right. This is amazing. Fruity, flowery, clean, pleasant, uplifting and just plain pretty. I need a bottle of this one.

    Enraged Orangutan Musk

    I definitely smell the orange. Which was lovely until it hit my skin and then it turned sour. It's not terrible but doesn't work well with my body chemistry.

    Enraged Bunny Musk

    Oh my. I wasn't expecting to like this but, WOW, it's wonderful. Very soft and pleasant. Not too strong but just enough to were you can tell you are wearing something A nice, powdery, clean, feminine scent

    Snake Oil

    My second imp decapitation of the evening...I should probably throw in the towel for tonight. Its a good thing Snake Oil smells heavenly, as it's everywhere...and hey, it mixes well with The Red Queen (the other imp catastrophe of the evening) It smells like amber to me...which = love Yummy and pleasant. I can see why it's so popular

    La Petite Mort

    I just read the previous reviews and dont smell O at all. I smell a lovely soft rose, some cherries combined with a powdery softness to it. This is such a lovely scent, probably need a big bottle of this one
  14. fairy

    The Red Queen

    Well, I just had the imp decapitate so I have Red Queen all over my desk. I smell cherries. It smells wonderful Once it hits my skin it gets a little smoky and that's where it goes wrong for me...if only the cherries stayed. I like it but not enough to upgrade. I'll definitely keep my poor imp though

    Versailles

    This was a frimp and one I would have never tried. Thank goodness I did...this is amazing! It smells like it has a slight mint undertone, a slight powder overtone, and gorgeous amber and flowers in between. I can't stop smelling my wrist and must upgrade this to a bottle. I'd put this in my top 10 for sure

    Sundew

    This scent is GORGEOUS. The name says it all...it's sunny, bright, cheery and dewy. I smell citrus and sunshine and laughter and warmth and honeydew A must have~

    White Light

    White Light is a MUST HAVE. I received my bottle today but had an imp that I had been working with for a while. I like to put it on at night to clear my mind of that internal headache chatter that goes on while waiting to fall asleep. It works. I like to put it on my palms and breath the scent in while envisioning a white protective light slowly work it's way from the top of my head down to my toes. It helps bring on a relaxing sleep and I don't just lay there worrying about everything that happened earlier that day. Now that I have my bottle I'm going to start putting some on in the morning as well. TAL oils are amazing. Scent-wise...it's a lovely, light, unassuming blend that does what it needs to do
  18. I bought this one for non-smell purposes only but I'm so happy to report that, as a bonus, it also smells really nice. I just started working with it today so the only thing I can offer as of yet is a smell review... There is a slight spice to it but not enough to make you turn your nose. Beautiful flowers keep the spice in check. I didn't smell the dragon's blood. To me it's warm and calming and has a zing. Lovely.

    Lionheart

    I have a sample of this and can't wait to order a full bottle from the TAL lab. Scent-wise, this is, hands down, my favorite fragrance. It's pure joy and peace in a bottle. Soft, powdery and calming. The best part is, like the other TAL oils I've been fortunate enough to try, IT WORKS! You can't help but feel a sense of warmth and happiness while wearing it

    Nocturne

    On the smell front, this is wonderful. Soft, pretty, and not overpowering. But most importantly, IT WORKS! I had the most amazing sleep earlier tonight and I'm the queen of horrible insomnia. I highly recommend this oil.

    Has No Hanna

    I can't pick out notes but only have this to say...THIS SMELLS INCREDIBLE. I must buy a bottle asap. I don't know what it is. I smell flowers and sunshine and warmth and happiness.

    The Sleeper

    This one is quite lovely. Its soft and floral and has a slight edge to it so that it doesn't get too perfumey. I really like this one!

    Talvikuu

    Lots of pine. At first it's overwhelming. As it dries it gets a little much needed powder overlay. Does remind me of a stark, snowy day.

    Magdalene

    This one smelled like stale flowers to me.

    Hungry Ghost Moon 2006

    I LOVE it. Another lovely clean, watery scent. It's sweet, but not sticky, sickly sweet. It has a GREAT throw to it...you don't have to slather. And it has a floral side that counters the fruit and makes it into one luscious yum-fest. I wish I had found BPAL in time to order this myself. Must find a bottle!
