WidgetAlley Report post Posted September 7, 2005 So I was reading the descriptions of Dublin (which I just bought a 5mL of, unsniffed... *crosses fingers* I'm a bad girl, but I couldn't resist), and I couldn't help thinking it sounded very... Middle-Earth. That in combination with a thread of comments over at the BPAL LJ comm got me thinking... do any catalogue blends remind you of Tolkien? And if so, could you recommend them to me? I'm a mad Tolkien fangirl, and have been for ages... For me, for instance, Brimstone was very Mordor, and Yerevan made me think of Yavanna ("the Giver of Fruits"). White Rabbit struck me as a Hobbit scent, and so on... (I know most of you are probably most familiar with LOTR, which is great, but if anyone wants to give me recommendations based on the rest of canon, be it the Silmarillion-- wouldn't the Valar be awesome?-- or even HoME, that'd be fantastic.)

WidgetAlley Report post Posted September 8, 2005 Aha! I wonder why that didn't come up on search... or maybe it did and I just missed it. I'm good like that sometimes. Anyway, thanks! Share this post Link to post
TroubleDoll Report post Posted September 8, 2005 I think Galadriel is totally Szepasszony, and Lightning makes me think of Legolas. Share this post Link to post
