A paean to all the Wicked Queens, Evil Stepmothers, and other misunderstood villainesses throughout history and lore. Lends an aura of majesty, refinement, strength, and a deep, brooding malice. A sophisticated, womanly scent: rich myrrh and jasmine draped in the subtlest rose.
As if, with beasts’ eyes, angels led
The way, I slip back to your bed,
Quiet as a hooded light,
Hushed by the shadows of the night.
And then, my dark one, you shall soon
Embrace the cold beams of the moon,
Around a fresh grave, the chilling hiss
Of serpent coiled shall be my kiss.
When morning shows his livid face
Your bed shall feel my empty place,
As cold as death, till fall of night.
Others take tenderness to wife:
Dread gives away your youth and life
To me, to be bride of fright.
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.
From livid skies that, without end,
As stormy as your future roll,
What thoughts into your empty soul
(Answer me, libertine!) descend?
– Insatiable yet for all
That turns on darkness, doom, or dice,
I’ll not, like Ovid, mourn my fall,
Chased from the Latin paradise.
Skies, torn like seacoasts by the storm!
In you I see my pride take form,
And the huge clouds that rush in streams
Are the black hearses of my dreams,
And your red rays reflect the hell,
In which my heart is pleased to dwell.
The perfume of a hellbound soul, gleefully lost to iniquity: blood musk, golden honey, thick black wine, champagne grapes, tobacco flower, plum blossom, tonka bean, oakmoss, carnation, benzoin, opoponax, and sugar cane.
Orgiastic mayhem in the extreme: sweet strawberry and orange blossom distorted by carnation, black poppy and hibiscus.

Started off extremely Cherry Coke, but does evolve with the dry-down. Still a bit too sweet for my tastes, but pleasant overall.
Where I’d wear it: Biker bar

When I first got this, I was really disappointed because thought it was like honey and rum in the bottle, it turned to strong baby powder on my skin. So I let it mellow. One thing I’ve learned about Bpal is the chemistry is such that the scents change with time, and any one note that stands out too much at first usually assimilates into a much more even tempered concoction with time. After a few years I tried it again and it immediately became my going out scent. It’s a creamy, rummy, meady, almond alcoholic drink that everyone describes as sex on my neck. Seriously, if I want to get hit on all night, I wear this. It’s boozy and delicious and smacks of bad decisions and lusty one night stands. Wear it if you want to get into trouble, in the best possible way.

A nice, sweet, warm, and foody scent that lasts in the dry and high desert I live in. I do not sense any wickedness, though!

I don’t know what kind of mad olfactory science is going on here, but somehow this smells like sexy, spicy smoke on me. I expected something foody and sweet and I ended up with Jake Gyllenhaal on a horse. I don’t know how I could ever wear this in public. It’s hard enough just walking around the house with my forearm glued to my nose, I have no idea how I’d navigate traffic.

My body chemistry made this smell like a tart cherry candy. As it dried, it almost got metallic.this being said, I can see how it might smell amazing on someone else.

At first one would think it would go too foody with my chemistry, but surprise, it is sweet and fruity on me. It reminds me of some kind of fruit incense, but can’t quite put my finger on what. You might want to try this out if food notes are normally an issue.

I can only assume that’s it just my skin, but unfortunately, it didn’t give me personally that cake/bakery smell I was looking for. It reminds me more of cherry flavored candy from when I was young (didn’t care for cherry flavored things). The scent mellows out near the end of it’s lifespan on my skin, but for me, that’s too much time spent smelling like Cherry-candy.

When I first opened up my Imp of Hellcat I was a little disappointed. Immediately all I could smell was almond, and strong almond.
When you put it on it does something magical to your skin. At first it smells sugary, but as it dries it gets spicier in a lovely way. There are so many notes to this perfume. In passing it smells sweet and cakey, and when you inhale deeper it’s like a spiced chai almost. Beautiful!

Hellcat smells sooooo good! It’s like walking into a pastry shop. And the beauty of oil based perfumes is that the smell lasts ten times longer. If you love cakes (or your significant other does) then this is the scent for you, just don’t try to eat it. 😉
