MY COLLECTION IS GETTING WAY OUT OF CONTROL. It's either ME or the SAMPLES, and the samples keep eying up my side of the bed! Get ye hence, ye odoriferous wenches!

Paypal payments in USD, plz (I don't care what kind've account you have - I JUST WANT YOUR MONEY, mkaythnx)! I live in the UK, but I'm super anal about not overcharging on shipping.
Normally packages run about $3.00-4.00 to the USA/internationally (depending on the weight), and $2.00-3.00 within the UK. All parcels valued up to £30.00 (about $70.00 USD) are automatically insured by Royal Mail, so buying insurance is purely optional.
I've sold / bought / swapped around these parts before, so please don't be afraid to double check
my credentials (who've been bribed with Nazi gold, furs, and drugs!). Thank you!
(GC & LE Bottles, Partial & Full)
Bottles I've recently bought that just didn't work, and partially full leftovers from decant circles I've run.
Caspar (Possets, 09 LE): $3.75
Very classic, very dry, surprisingly light hearted, not in the least bit sweet. Gold, Frankincense and Myrrh are given a perfumy treatment while retaining the resin feel to the blend. Very long lasting despite the profound ingredients. Beautiful stuff this. Caspar is traditionally said to be the King of Sheba and represents the frankincense brought to Jesus.We will never know if that is true but it's a charming thought and one which goes well with this fragrance. Resinous. (APPROXIMATELY 2 DECANTS LEFT IN BOTTLE!)
Dangerous (Possets, 09 GC): $1.75
Dark and heady, what even Madame X would wear if she had to be assured of a conquest. Dangerous Oil is infused with the finest of rare things. 6 musks from blackest black up through a rare and gorgeous in itself purple/blue musk hybrid. A good jolt of labdenum and an edge of cognac. The heart note is an entire chypre made only for this project and used for no other. There is a fresh and almost gardenia-like part to this (but there is no gardenia in it), it is not a floral but a resinous blend but there is a mesmerizing beauty to it. (APPROXIMATELY 1 DECANT LEFT IN BOTTLE!)

I'm a lazy whore, I admit it. The prospect of judging how much oil is left in 200 perfume samples IS NOT MY IDEA OF A GOOD TIME. All of the samples listed below either have been sparingly tested just ONCE, or, in very rare occasions, twice (very, very rare occasions).
