Always fun to follow your reviews! one thing that i would mention = Feels weird for "Shadowblade" to be illusion instead of evocation, like when you compare with "flame blade" as a nearly identical spell of 2nd level . . . maybe intended for arcane trickster to access with the restriction to illusion and enchantment spells?
Minor Illusion is just fun due to its reliability and versatility. Even though it is just a cantrip, Minor Illusion (with a healthy dose of creativity) is ripe for shenanigans. I personally would like for warlocks to have invocations built around Minor Illusion, similar to the plethora available for Eldritch Blast. I think I homebrewed a couple, but can't recall what they were at the moment.
Major Illusion does this. It's pretty cool for an Eldritch Knight since they don't get any spells beyond 4th level. (Or multiclass of Fighter X Wizard.)
With the Feat Eldritch Initiate for Mask of Many Faces or for Silent Image (both are At Will spells under this Feat)... Then add in Illusion Spells for a Multi class Fighter x Wizard... Not optimal but fun to play...

I've always wanted to play a Shadow monk (6) and Illusion wizard (14). Just seems like a fun combo in my opinion.

The senses of taste and smell are under represented. These senses can trigger immediate and involuntary responses.

Lv6 Fighter / lv14 Wizard Illusionist... "When Fire Ball isn't the answer. Illusory Reality Fire Ball is the question."
Can you Catapult the Shadowblade?
I dont like disguise self i think it's too powerful for a first level spell.
