Incantation Perfume Oil
Select Options This product has multiple variants. The options may be chosen on the product pageThough thy slumber may be deep,
Yet thy spirit shall not sleep;
There are shades which will not vanish,
There are thoughts thou canst not banish;
By a power to thee unknown,
Thou canst never be alone;
Thou art wrapt as with a shroud,
Thou art gather’d in a cloud;
And for ever shalt thou dwell
In the spirit of this spell.A profound and entrancing potion. Deep, wispy, and unfathomably dark: vetiver, dark woods, crumbling and burnt black sandalwood and a drop of lemon rind.

The Black Tower Perfume Oil
Select Options This product has multiple variants. The options may be chosen on the product pageSay that the men of the old black tower,
Though they but feed as the goatherd feeds,
Their money spent, their wine gone sour,
Lack nothing that a soldier needs,
That all are oath-bound men:
Those banners come not in.There in the tomb stand the dead upright,
But winds come up from the shore:
They shake when the winds roar,
Old bones upon the mountain shake.Those banners come to bribe or threaten,
Or whisper that a man’s a fool
Who, when his own right king’s forgotten,
Cares what king sets up his rule.
If he died long ago
Why do you dread us so?There in the tomb drops the faint moonlight,
But wind comes up from the shore:
They shake when the winds roar,
Old bones upon the mountain shake.The tower’s old cook that must climb and clamber
Catching small birds in the dew of the morn
When we hale men lie stretched in slumber
Swears that he hears the king’s great horn.
But he’s a lying hound:
Stand we on guard oath-bound!There in the tomb the dark grows blacker,
But wind comes up from the shore:
They shake when the winds roar,
Old bones upon the mountain shake.A sepulchral, desolate scent. Long-dead soldiers, oath-bound; the perfume of their armor, the chill wind that surges through their tower, white bone and blackened steel: white sandalwood, ambergris, wet ozone, galbanum and leather with ebony, teak, burnt grasses, English ivy and a hint of red wine.

Very Very Very Sweet. The cinnamon notes are strong to start off with, but the honeysuckle rapidly rises to conquer all, with the spices scattered beneath. Lasts for a good long wile, all throughout my workday.

Out of all the imp’s I have tried from this store this one is my favorite. It does smell strongly of cinnamon so if you like cinnamon you will love this. I loved the smell of it out of the bottle but, it only got better with time.

Got this as a sample.
Not as “fiery” as the description entails on me: the cinnamon is definitely there, but it’s soft & not overpowering (which I appreciate).
Scent reminds me of that peanut & sesame brittle candy you get on Chinese New Year, but much more aromatic: think brown sugar + milk.

Ahh so lovely! Not too cinnamon-y, which is a good thing for me. It’s very soft—an undercurrent. Not nearly as strong as I would’ve expected, and I wonder if the formula’s been changed because others are saying it’s very cinnamon. To me, the honeysuckle is forward, followed by copal and myrrh. I really love this. It smells sweet and innocent.
Where I’d wear it: A girl’s birthday party

For what it’s worth, I didn’t have to age mine. It was cinnamon buns right out of the bottle. A very good foody scent.

Age it! Age them all! This one especially. I tried aging it a couple months and still couldn’t stand it. I forgot about it for another nine months, and voila! Creamy, luscious spice.
Elizabeth –
Wow this is powerful stuff! It actually has some staying power in me in my dry desert climate, too. Very fiery, but still sweet. I’m getting the big bottle.

This came as a freebie with my order; I didn’t try it right away and then forgot about it, so it’s had time to age for a good while. As it is now, it’s a warm, spicy scent, with a slight sweetness and dominant cinnamon and cherry notes. I like it, but it fades super fast on me, so that lowers the rating a bit. For fans of foody, spicy scents, though, I can see this be a potential favorite.
james_the_saint –
Oh wow, is this good. This was a sample that came with my order and I am glad that it did. It might be my favorite of the group. Like the description says it is a strong cinnamon smell, but really deepened by the myrrh. The spice out of the bottle hit me right away, but on the skin it’s more mellow and smooth. Foody smells work well with my chemistry so it’s perfect.

This oil smells absolutely delicious. Like cinnamon buns. Delicious warm cinnamon buns.
The first time I tried it on, it did smell a bit soapy, but I let it age for a couple of months, and that’s completely gone now. One of my top 5 favorites.

A definite gourmand or foody oil, Chimera stays true to it’s name as it likes to morph.
At very first, immediately after purchase the myrrh is stupendously overwhelming both in the bottle and on skin, completely blanketing the other notes. I thought this was another “miss” but the internet saved me from making a big mistake:
IF YOUR CHIMERA SMELLS GHASTLY, AGE YOUR BOTTLE.
Trust me. I put my imp of “nasty old-lady musk” away in a dark box for a little more than 6weeks (some recommendations suggest even 6months) and when it came out for the sniff test again it had transformed into a deliciously warm cinnamon-y almost creamy, vanilla-y scent. Like holiday baking in a bottle. Yum.
This is now one of my favourite perfume oils, it’s a shame to think I would have missed it if I had traded the imp or simply discarded it after the first test.
