    When I first discovered BPAL, it was like being a kid in a candy store - so many delicious choices, or so it seemed. Thanks to a couple BPAL-loving friends, I quickly amassed a couple dozen "imps,"...

    I admit it, I have joined the cult of bpal. After stumbling upon the website one day I was intrigued by the descriptions and decided to give it a try. Unfortunately the overall experience hasn't...

    I think I'm done with BPAL. I have about 50-60 imps and a few full-bottle sizes. I *love* the marketing, though: the fun part is reading the descriptions and smelling your wrist! But I have to...

    About mid-December, I was searching online for unique perfume and ran across BPAL. I too was seduced by the the marketing of their various scents. I ordered 14 imps (BPAL's teminology for small...

    I got 4 samples none of which I liked and made the mistake of buying a full sized bottle (Carnival Diabolique) which is very tiny for $20. I fell for some of the reviews and I really don't think...

    I had so much fun buying and swapping these oils that I somehow managed to convince myself that they really were as special and wonderful as everyone on the semi-official forum said they were. ...

    I've heard/read some of these scents being described as "incense-y" and "head shop-y" and I have to agree. BUT... that's exactly what I like about them, I can't stand smelling like everyone else...

    I absolutely adore Black Phoenix Alchemy Lab. I've been a loyal customer of BPAL for almost two years now and I have tried a significant portion of their catalog. I have found that the oils are...

    I have to say that the marketing behind BPAL is top notch. There are seemingly-- perhaps literally-- hundreds of lusciously described scents to choose from, and truly each one sounds more unique...

    I am basing my review on some imps that I got in a swap. I have to say, their website is beautifully designed, and the scent descriptions pull you right in, who wouldn't be intrigued? As for the...

    I am a BPAL lover of a couple of years, now. There's a few things people need to understand about BPAL that are big stumbling blocks, I think: the most important, to me, is that BPAL is an acquired...

    Love them! Oils last longer on me anyway, and even with their current price increase, BPAL's prices are dirt cheap. Plus they don't test on animals, and the scents last. There's so many to pick...

    I wanted to love these scents but each and every single imp I tried left me smelling like a Yankee Candle. If you like the way the dried flower/candle section of a craft store smells, then Black...

    Well, my first BPAL product came in. And I have to say, I am not as happy as I thought I would be, but I'm not unhappy either. I purchased many imps and some, to be honest, were terrible. The...

    I really, really, really wanted to like this line. I have tried about 50 scents, and many smelled very good in the imp. Some smelled horrible. Once on, they caused headaches and sometimes nausea. ...
