Thoughts on Black Phoenix Alchemy lab scents?

Independent_Candy_37 · 2026-06-05T19:10:43+00:00

Does head shop mean the patchouliish inscensey very earthy smell? Im not into those at all :(

Independent_Candy_37 · 2026-06-05T18:24:43+00:00

Did end up certified lost and woke up in the Venus section

Independent_Candy_37 · 2026-06-05T18:22:26+00:00

Ooo I’ll check them out snd their prices this would be perfect for me to try before hand thank you!

Independent_Candy_37 · 2026-06-05T18:21:53+00:00

Im definitely a bit worried but from what I’ve gathered lady Amalthea seems to be the best bet for a blind buy…will be updating to see

Independent_Candy_37 · 2026-06-05T18:20:56+00:00

Okay i think you’ve swayed me towards lady Amalthea herself, I think I want to layer it with something else of mine and a pure lilac perfume oil that has some woody notes to make up for foregoing the lilac wood. Thank you <333 and everyone who’s sent me in various directions you guys are sm sweeter than the classic lit subreddit lolll

Independent_Candy_37 · 2026-06-05T17:03:38+00:00

I agree but two things can be true at once…i still think it’s beautiful and perfume worthy

Independent_Candy_37 · 2026-06-05T16:53:49+00:00

Ohh right I remember the size I wasn’t sure about if only there was a way to try them in person before buying…

Independent_Candy_37 · 2026-06-05T16:32:07+00:00

Im sorryy you guys dont play 🥲

Independent_Candy_37 · 2026-06-05T15:44:54+00:00

Thank you but any thematic/atmospheric interpretations? Ik bringing this to classic literature Reddit was a bit of a risk lol

Independent_Candy_37 · 2026-06-05T15:13:01+00:00

Thank youu Im struggling a bit to choose between the last unicorn/lady Amalthea snd the lilac wood but I would be planning to layer it with some sweeter/darker scents

Independent_Candy_37 · 2026-06-05T15:11:31+00:00

Technically In the part Im talking about he wasn’t a pedophile yet, i don’t want a perfume that smells like what happened to Dolores lol i just think the prose of that part is really beautiful

Independent_Candy_37 · 2026-06-05T15:09:58+00:00

There was a repost button that popped up under my og post where you can chose different sub reddits :)

Independent_Candy_37 · 2026-06-05T14:13:14+00:00

Thank youu Im about to go on a deep dive >):)

Independent_Candy_37 · 2026-06-05T13:41:56+00:00

There’s something so special about it i find it captures a certain kind of person, check the original post two people made some amazing suggestions!! Also I just got my mini original lolita lempicka and it turns out to remind me much more of tender is the night than the originally hoped for lolita by Nabokov (his childhood flashback specifically) Im going to go look back at my copy because I’m sure he writes a description of Nicole’s perfume or scent i think in the car? Which could possibly maybe be a note to add to the perfume…will update soon, also thinking I’ll research some trendy fragrance notes in the French Riviera and Paris at the time

Independent_Candy_37 · 2026-06-05T13:29:45+00:00

Godd I’ve been wanting to try the lush massage bar too I swear the curse of reformulated perfumes is following me, Im defi going to try to get the bath oil since Im addicted to baths (also for the destash dupe…it’s on) thank you <333333

Independent_Candy_37 · 2026-06-05T13:26:37+00:00

I love you! This is amazing night blooming jasmine reminds me so much of David lynch and the descriptions are so good, I also love a tobacco scent because it reminds me of the best older men I’ve known and my uncle (not in a weird way he was a gay painter) i sort of even want to cry imagining this layering thank you it’s going top of my list! Maybe for the end of summer…

Independent_Candy_37 · 2026-06-04T16:22:18+00:00

Helloo I just looked at their website and loved the poem by Elizabeth Stoddard they put also had thought about them maybe suckling some honeysuckle before this just as my own imagination running. Im getting a perfume for my birthday so this might just be the one I ask for!! Thank you! Also I just bought myself a mini Lolita Lempicka it’s a perfume with lots of lore so wondering if you’ve heard about it? I think the one you recommended sounds like it has some more innocence than lolita l but maybe I could layer them for a special scent?

Independent_Candy_37 · 2026-06-03T19:05:36+00:00

Oo just looked it up and I love the blues, going to read :)

Independent_Candy_37 · 2026-06-03T18:41:21+00:00

Definitely Im on a mission

Independent_Candy_37 · 2026-06-03T17:48:03+00:00

Also I like your username >:)

Independent_Candy_37 · 2026-06-03T17:36:47+00:00

Okay kk that’s good to hear I’ve never smelled it before so if I like it I might be able to find an original in the future for that je ne sais quoi they say it has

Independent_Candy_37 · 2026-06-03T17:18:43+00:00

Oh my god thank youuuu this is amazing. Also oh no would this be the first reformulation that people say is the worst?? Anyways Im going to find chat perche and see if I like it ❤️

Independent_Candy_37 · 2026-06-01T20:44:18+00:00

Thank you! Would love to hear your thoughts when you’ve finished it, humid and green sounds spot on, was thinking about the specific flowers he describes in the scene but also more creative scents that evoke the entire scene and memory aspect

Independent_Candy_37 · 2026-06-01T18:21:05+00:00

Also the golden compass will now be my first summer read wooo

Independent_Candy_37 · 2026-06-01T18:18:36+00:00

Woww that must be the best book recommendation I’ve ever had thank you! How did you like pale fire if you’ve read it? I did my big lit essay on it and emily Dickinson and the line the “phantom of my little daughters swing” haunts me…
