Auctoritas

If you are able to find this oil in the 2nd hand market, do so. The DA BPALS have blown me away and have become my favorite. Auctoritas brings aura of confidence and clarity, without being a jerk. It clears away obstacles like nobody’s business. I am surprised to see how fast it works to fullfill my wishes. (I make sure those wishes are reasonable and fair to the other party as well).

I've opted to use this BPAL whenever I've needed to be taken seriously, wanting an interaction/transaction to resolve in my favor, and it hasn't let me down, yet! It's been just the right thing when returning to a mechanic to argue that the service he charged me for didn't solve the issue, resulting in a very favorable outcome. I've also had receptionists at a dermatologist tell me that it might take several office visits to achieve a simple result, only to show up in Auctoritas and have everything efficiently addressed in a single visit, with zero hassle.
The scent reminds me a lot of The Goat's Phalanges (Saturn in Cap), which I actually like a lot but only when I'm in the right mood; cool, dark, heavy and heady. Very herbal, bitter; evocative of pitch. Has an 'off' sort of undertone that I don't mind that much, but for that reason this is a needs-based BPAL for me, rather than one I'd reach for just for casual aromatic vibes. It's too serious for that!

Big “Speak softly but carry a big stick” energy. If you’re feeling less-than-confident, it’s a real boost without being overly “hot”! Cooling, calm, composed.

Repair for long-standing harm (60+ years) came through not long after I got someone this oil for another situation that seems to have turned out in their favor as well.

fee fi fo fum if you need to go to bring a giant to their knees dab a bit of this on and tell them how far you're willing to go to defend your case. I didn't even have to go there, just letting them know I could and would was enough. They responded with a threat which probably should have scared me but it just didn't and when I came back with a counter threat, they crumbled. It was the biggest anti-climax ever and I have no complaints about that. Someone below drew a parallel with the Aldebaran oil and I agree - that's when you pull out the big sword and get to work cutting through their ranks, this is the simple act of telling them you have a sword and that being enough.

This oil makes me feel like I’m a well-dressed western tycoon who is ready to sign a major contract deal while smelling and feeling quite fresh, obviously worthy of respect and regard. Very useful if your job entails either being or working with authority figures, particularly useful with the boss and supervisors etc and other people of high-office or esteem. Highly recommended

I apply this when I feel like I need to level up at work or be perceived positively/ competently. The smell is a little strong for me so I dilute it

When I was having a difficult time at work, I used this BPAL and was protected in big ways. Security and police showed up as well for protection.

This has become my go to bpal for meeting in the office (usually layers with a mercury and regulus materia). It makes me feel strong and confident but even better it makes me STRONG in the eyes of coworkers and clients, and they do not mess with me or challenge me.

Who knew upholding boundaries could smell so good? I have been successfully pairing the delicious perfume with Pompilus for most "dealing with dickheads" situations. Aside from smelling like a well kemp person who knows her shit, it does indeed let me step into my power and make friends out of enemies. Disclaimer: this combo doesn't work on super extreme narcissists. I think the boundaries piss them off. Ha. Otherwise, I have built a strong client base I am attributing in part to this combo.
