BPAL Halloweenie Squee-age!!!!!

The BPAL Halloween update is LIVE! *dies*

Black Phoenix Alchemy Lab

Okay, here are my MUST HAVES.

First and foremost, the PUMPKIN PATCH. I will be getting the Pumpkin Plunder including A Murder of Crows.

A Murder of Crows
Sleek iris and verbena, grey amber, benzoin, davana, and glossy herbs.

I just used up all the imps I had of the previous Pumpkin Patch, and meant to get bottles last year and never did like I said I was going to so this time DAMN IT I am... ♥ Beth's pumpkin blends! These are new blends, so equally really nice. I'm particularly looking forward to Pumpkin V, Pumpkin with benzoin, bourbon vanilla, lemon peel, neroli, blood orange, and red ginger. Mmmmm! Pumpkiny gooooodness.


These too:

The Death of Autumn
Dark amber, dead leaves, khus, saffron, bitter clove, chrysanthemum, camellia, galangal, and a drop of oud. This one looks amazing. A-MAZING.

Samhainophobia 2007
The fear of Halloween. Menacing Haitian vetiver, patchouli, and clove with a shock of bourbon geranium, grim oakmoss, and dread-inspiring balsams pierce the innocuous scent of autumn leaves. Was intrigued by this last year, but never got a bottle. Want to this year.

From The Haunted House collection:

The Perilous Parlor
A memory of pleasure passed. A ghostly rendezvous, delight beyond death. Faint echoes of laughter and the distorted music of a harp drift by, along with the scent of soft white pear and sweet vanilla. Pear and vanilla? Yes please. *bounces!*


Bonfire Night looks like an interesting, fun blend what with beer, woodsmoke, tar and treacle. Haha!! Might try an imp of that.

As well, The Twisted Oak Tree looks interesting with it's rotted wood, moss and ivy. Another imp.

Will have to wait till Friday however, and pay day. LOL!

Not to mention the Halloween Inquisition is back. Haven't decided on that yet. But oh, I wanna be tricked AND treated. Can I have ALL the oils please? LOL!! I'm a greedy goblin.

And oh the goodness that's just been added to the General Catalog!!! Patricularly:

Schrodinger's Cat
A paradoxical scent experiment! - tangerine, sugared lime, pink grapefruit, oakmoss, lavender, zdravetz, and chocolate peppermint.
*.*!!!!!

Event Horizon
A disconcerting scent, heavy and oppressive, through which no light, no matter, and no spirit can escape. Black opium, labdanum, opoponax, black orchid, and benzoin.

A Countenance Foreboding Evil
Patchouli, ylang ylang, blood orange, and vetiver. Patchouli please!!!!! *.*

Incubus
Spectral white musk and the heart-stopping chill of sheared mint, fanned by caramel-touched body heat, and the diabolical sensuality of black musk, nicotiana, and sage.

And yes, I have to do a SERIOUS General Catalog order. Soon. I pay so much attention to the LEs that I neglect all the wonderful goodness to be had.

Ooo, actually, I have last year's Samhainophobia and it was rather rubbish on me. I'd gladly sell it to you for the regular price (i.e. $17.50 plus shipping and handling) if you'd like it. I'm in the UK so shipping would be a little pricey, but if you don't like it, it's the 2006 blend so you can probably sell it on ebay for a profit. Interested?

I just ordered a bottle of this year's so I'll pass, but thank you! :)

I have a full set of Pumpkin Patch bottles from 2005. I would be happy to decant you a set of imps for cost if you want them. I just ordered the new set because, yeah, they're amazing and BPAL's pumpkin scent is nice on me.

I always miss out on GC stuff too for the same reason. I recently fell in love with Helena and wound up with a bottle. It's gorgeous.

A Countenance Foreboding Evil sounds yummy to me also. And there is one Pumpkin Patch that sounds like a winner but I am forgetting which one!
