Dragon's Blood


Recommended Posts

I was wondering if someone could tell me who makes the flavor Dragon's Blood and where I can buy. Or is it a mix of flavors? I had it in milwaukee and my friend had it in georgia so I know it exists.

Mix Apple with Coconut. Like, a very sweet apple.. fantasia or Starbuzz for example.



It tastes just like the smell of the incents.

Thanks I'll give it a try.

Dragon's Blood is a plant. Both ink and fragrance come from it. The plant got it's name because of the ink's opaque red color that will permanently stain anything it comes into contact with. Heavily used in Wiccan rituals traditionally it's considered a "magical" plant and can't be used for anything "evil" but only for positive influence, and yeah, it's fragrance is really very nice. My suggestion is you check your local "craft" stores and pick up an essential oil from it and then duplicate it through trial and error mixing.

Please don't take this as snarky, biggrin.gif but dragon's blood is a resin, there is no essential oil obtained from it, it has to be made into a sort of a tincture, if that makes any sense. There are two varieties of plants that the resin comes from. It's bright red drops from the "wounded" plant, hence Dragon's Blood, from a species of draceana. *Essential Oil Geek* rolleyes.gif (Yup, hoards vials of BPAL oils like vials of crack, don't ask.)

Use to use it myself in pagan ceremonies...
not too familiar with the many forms, I used the Dragon's Blood Tears on coals...
wonder if I could do that for a bowl of shisha?

Don't know if it would affect the taste any (if it did, it would probably be for the worse) but it might smell nice! It's not harmful to smoke or ingest as far as I know (in it's pure form anyhow), it's been used medicinally for centuries.

Not taken the wrong way at all and yes you're right. It's a resin like sap, but it is somehow infused into an oil. Perhaps simple long term immersion?

I have some Dragons Blood Incense oil. The stuff smell amazing, but I do not think it would be a good flavor to smoke. I use it as a perfume oil for me also. Just a little dab, and smoosh it into my beard.


Being familiar with the fragrance, sounds awfully sexy to me!

Lots of people ask me what I am wearing when I use it. It so different from other perfume/cologne sniffs. That is about all I use is perfume oil, the smell is much better and lasts longer. I have some oil from Saudi and it is just awesome. Just wet the beard and you have a fresh smell again biggrin.gif

I love the Dragon's Blood, too. As I mentioned, I'm really into BPAL (Black Phoenix Alchemy Labs). The have a whole Dragon line, Ars Draconis. Besides other really cool things. Can't beat it when someone asks what you're wearing, and it's Embalming Fluid, Death Cap or Malice...lol Or Blood. That one gets some funny looks as well.

Dragon's blood is also a flavor for sno-cones. When I was in Killeen, TX they used to sell them there. They also sold Tiger's blood flavor (which happens to be a combo of cherry and coconut, excellent for hookah, I love it) and some other animals blood. I do know that all three were Cherry based.

Cool, thanks for the info about the oils

I absolutely love it!! Any recommendations??


Well, if you look on the intro page, you can buy "Imp's Ears", which are 1 ml samples, for $3.50 each or 6 for $19.95, that's a good way to start. They generally throw some random freebies in with every order, too. An imp will actually last a looong time, because it's essential oil. If you go to the forum (listed on the left side of the page), there is a reviews section, so you can read reviews of all the fragrances. As far as what to try, it depends on what types of scents you like best. You can do a search for dragon's blood (again on the left side menu), and it will list all the scents with that in it. If you get scents you don't care for, there is a whole on-line community on the forum boards where you can trade the imps with others for some you might like better!

Here is their list of more traditionally "male" blends, although a lot of their stuff is gender neutral. I wear a lot of this stuff, and a lot of guys I know wear things not on this list. But it's a place to start.

I just ordered the 6 imp ear sampler
Dee
Malice
Ravenous
Shadow
Bloodlust
Saturnalia

I am looking forward to getting them. I am glad to find another place that sells perfume oils.


dance.gif I've enabled another one! Welcome to the madness that is BPAL! Oh, and if they send you a postcard with your order, be sure it keep it (they're really cool anyhow), they're collectible. With an imp pack order you usually get two free random imps, too.

Oh crap, just noticed that "Shadow" is a discontinued scent. PM sent... Edited by iron molly black

Thanks for the help. I asked for hurricane in place of it.
