So, as I was in the store today, I saw a magazine advertising this site. Upon looking it up, I found it to be a site for fragrances and perfumes.
Normally, I wouldn't have a keen interest towards it, but...my god!
The categories alone draw me in, but when looking at the fragrances themselves, I have a huge interest in buying some.

...And yes, there is a section labelled "Steamworks":
Steamworks and others...

Edit: Soon to be purchasing "The Illustrated Woman" from the "Carnival Diabolique" section. Besides the fact I'm an artist, and the name attracts me, the review of this oil really draws me in. (Plus, it's limited addition)

Oh my, these certainly look interesting.

You'll have to tell us whether the quality of the product is as great as we are led to believe, I'm sure it will be though. ^_^

*sighs with a crazed look in eye*
Shall I write a review for the scent I purchased?
It's quite stunning, I must say. I've been sniffing my wrists repetitively for hours now.

I've been eyeing BPAL for awhile now. As soon as I'm less..well, broke, I plan on getting myself a bottle of their Antique Lace fragrance, as well as an imp ear of The Black Tower.

I wish there were some way I could go visit the Black Phoenix Alchemy Lab on one of the times they're open to the public; I should faint entirely from the combination of scents! (If only because my somewhat developed olfactory sense tends to rebel at the slightest whiff of anything too bracing, sending me fishing in my pockets for a handkerchief.)
However, since I live half a world away, and one does not take such a trip for so light a reason as buying perfumes or scent blends, alas, 'tis not viable.

Even the descriptions are, well, quite splended. (If subject to a certain artistic license.) Out of the Steamworks, No. 93 Engine and the Obsidian Widow have the kind of blend I like most. Queen Mab and Hecate from the Excolo range appeal to me, but many of those look lovely. (And play on my love of myth and folktales, to boot.)
The Good Omens blends are of special interest to me as a fan of the book, of course. I can't say so much that I'd like all of them, but if the Buggre Alle This Bible one actually had the smell of old leather to it, I'd applaud those clever people who made it. Quite loudly. Then buy some.
