BPAL -- Reviews Needed of Tarots, Please!

Jun 12, 2007 12:04

I always figured I had time to get around to figuring out which Tarots I wanted, since they're unimpable and I don't know many people who have them. I HAVE had imps of both The Emperor and The Empress from people lovely enough to decant them, so I know I want them. However, if YOU have any added 'reviews' or things you've noticed about the following scents, please tell me what YOU smelled in them. I trust YOUR noses over people I don't know.

These are highly-truncated reviews from BPAL.org that follow; they could be highly unfair to the actual scent of the oils, because in some cases I'm literally compressing 123 different reviews into a quick blurb.

The TAROT OILS List:

0 - THE FOOL: minty, vanilla, fruity
1 - THE MAGICIAN: aquatic Pine-sol
2 - THE HIGH PRIESTESS: pine, cherry, minty
3 - THE EMPRESS: roses with a dark edge
4 - THE EMPEROR: soapy sunflowers
5 - THE HIEROPHANT: foody, cinnamon
6 - THE LOVERS: herbal, cinnamon
7 - THE CHARIOT: fruity bubblegum, apples
8 - STRENGTH: green earth
9 - THE HERMIT: spicy, sweet, warm, light florals, moss and seawater
10 - THE WHEEL OF FORTUNE: floral, dusty, dry; Ben-Gay (wintergreen)
11 - JUSTICE: moss, rosewood, amber
12 - THE HANGED MAN: fruity bubblegum (lotus) with musk
13 - DEATH: cedar, earthy, smoky
14 - TEMPERANCE: lemon, dandelion, honeysuckle
15 - THE DEVIL: dark, civet, musky [the least popular of all of them]
16 - THE TOWER: fiery, spicy, smoky, dragon's blood
17 - THE STAR: lemon, lime and coconut = pina colada candy
18 - THE MOON: jasmine and licorice
19 - THE SUN: heliotrope, cinnamon, citrus
20 - JUDGEMENT: herbal/incensy, "...like an occult shop..."
21 - THE WORLD: earthy, fruity, warm, bright, spicy

And the Four Aces:

ACE OF PENTACLES: black pine, patchouli, honeysuckle, oakmoss, almond, earths
ACE OF SWORDS: lavender and neroli
ACE OF WANDS: sweet, spicy, cedar, dragon's blood
ACE OF CUPS: sticky-sweet cherry

...I'm pretty sure I need to add The Tower to my list of what to order, but some of you will have input that will let me know if any of these others are worth considering.

Reminder: By the next full moon, these are bye-bye!! [30 June]
