Perfumed Court recs, anyone?

For my next adventure in perfume, I want to move beyond BPAL and test some more traditional, alcohol-based perfumes. The Perfumed Court seems like a cool place to get sample sizes of those sorts of perfumes. So, I guess I have two questions for y'all.

1. Have any of you purchased perfumes from this site, and what was your experience?
2. This site seems pretty extensive, specializing in a lot of classic perfumes. What should I sample? What's the top ten list of classic perfumes that I should smell?

I will also have the chance to smell Angel (although I am not anticipating liking it very much).

It's definitely worth smelling as a huge, mould-breaking, love-it-or-hate-it blockbuster that started various trends. Even if you hate it.
