The kills look like perfume names to me..
and some are more appealing than others.... I can't help thinking that Glorfindel or Bergil would be the more successful of Gordis' lines. Phantom's sound suitabley upmarket but I don't think I have hit on a winner with Grima. Mind you back in the day tbere was a rather cheap scent called "Tramp" which was terribly successful while having a name which was just wrong on so many levels.
Googling I find to my amazement that it is still available and claims to be unmistakeable...!!!.

Just loving Mith's parfumerie concept.
I think Elladan & Elrohir by Kent sounds like a wonderfully swanky male cologne. I would buy it for Mr L, pronto. Anyway... Hurt Gollum, hurt Faramir. Heal Gilraen. Erkenbrand (3) Faramir (5) Gaffer Gamgee (4) Gilraen (6) Gollum (1) Lobelia (2) Gildor by Phantom Nob by Gordis Bergil by Gordis Fatty Bolger by Nilpness Halbarad by Nogrod Glorfindel by Gordis Dain II Ironfoot by Mormegil Caradhras by Mormegil the Cruel Imrahil by Phantom Bill the Pony by Rikae Saruman by Rikae Denethor by Mormegil Elladan & Elrohir by Kent Gríma by Mithalwen

Denethor by Mormegil sounds very macho... whereas Bergil by Gordis sounds very traditional and old school - like something from Penhaligons

Hmm. I think you would have to go to the special counter at Harrods for Bergil by Gordis. Or that little French parfurmerie shop in Belgravia.
What about Bill the Pony by Rikae? That would be mail-order only, I think.

Oh well out in the sticks we have to settle for what is available in John Lewis or the larger branches of Boots
