Quick, someone remind me that I have a weak sense of smell and find perfume generally nauseating!

Seriously, look at these. Good Omens themed perfumes? I could smell like Famine! Or Spider from Anansi Boys. And they have an entire series of dragon-themed perfumes. I . . . I want them. Does this make me a total girl? ;_;

Oh gosh, if only scent could travel through the internet! (I fancy trying the Grog one, myself :D Piratey!)

A sinister, sinuous incense of summoning, a herald and paean to the Primordial Gods of Darkness, Chaos, Madness and Decay.

The description alone is worth the price, I think XD Geek heaven.

I know, right? I think these folks know what they're doing. They've managed to sell a set of samples to someone who despises perfume. I want to know what Nyarlathotep smells like, damn it!

Haha, Ms. Vernon has certainly been going to town about that.

I've been aware of BPAL for a while, but I hate perfume, so mostly I've just gibbered over the descriptions and felt vaguely jealous of people being cleverer than me. They know our geekish/fannish/arcane fancies, and their enticing copy appeals precisely to the nerdy, literate, and (usually) definatly anti-girly girls.

It's interesting seeing what people graviate to! I admit I haven't visited the site for a long time because mostly it makes me pointlessly desirous of things I don't actually want/need... and really, there's just so many that sound fantastic.

Yes, I heard about them through her journal, too. Clever folks indeed. I'm not used to being a target market.

. . . Now that I've ordered some I'm petrified that upon arrival they'll cause me to break out in hives.

I gravitated to:

Muse, Deep In Earth, Niflheim, Dragon's Blood, Dragon's Heart, Nyarlathotep.

Only the most depressing perfume for me!
