LIMITED (too small to separate them into categories yet X3)

 

I don't read reviews to 'match' while writing. I might one day…just to make sure I don't say I smell berries when It's really Egyptian musk But for now… I deal you deal? ;_;

 

Will also be condensing these reviews and leaving big ones to link off the main categories. So i can fit more in! ... just a little bit addicted ;o;

The perfected winter rose, dew covered and freshly cut.

Rose Red 2007 A+ (4.5/5)

 

(Outside) Imp: Smelling with the lid closed, rose red smells like fresh cut roses.

(Inside) Imp: As soon as i opened the imp, i got hit by thorns and a sharp green scent. If you were to juice roses with the stems, i think this is the concoction you'd get. A florist shop stocked with wet, freshly cut roses is a close secon.

 

Chemistry: On skin it's very powdery sweet. I can't smell the green .. though it smells fresh with rose scented powder dusted over the top.

The drydown on me smells like soft, sweet, rose petals.. no wait.. rose water. It's faint. . . but i smell like rose water! huzzah! It stays put for a good time.

A shadowy shrine filled with forgotten toys, broken dolls. The altar: a collapsing trunk distended by a rotted wedding gown. The air of the room is dusty, laced with the scent of a child's perfume and the remnants of a dried, crumbling bridal bouquet: tea rose, violet, white sandalwood, French lavender, and Calla lily.

The Attrocious Attic C+ (1.5/5)

(Outside): Smells like floral dust and some very faint poutpourri ... lavendar? I usually hate lavendar, but this scent is really interesting. I think i got this as a frimp X3 so thankyou!!
(Inside): I get a sweet dewy flower scent. I take it's a very fragile tea rose?

Chemistry: It's all light dusty and dominant calla lily…maybe even a little lemony sweet. Kind of powdery... but the nice, light, airy mist of soft floral fragrance is cowering behind, bullied by the stench of wilted perfumed flowers whichis really close.
No crisp, dead flowers, no sweet faint florals. The sweetness of florals is sure as hell faint, but the dead, perfumed floral stench is on a roll.

A chilly, bright perfume: flurries of virgin snow, crisp winter wind and the faintest breath of night-blooming flowers.

Snow White 2007 B+ (3/5)

(Outside): A ha! I knew it wasn't the others. (The imps together smell like a mess and though they aren't dripping, they all seem to be fighting with each other for top notes. Okay, the outside of the imp smells like almond and powder. hah.
(Inside): Inside smells really light, floral and sweet. There is definitely a dry, sterile powdery element in there.

Chemistry: whoah. .. I smell like a baby prostitute. It's over-the-top innocent...did I mention the powder? I can imagine a pedophile taking extreme effort to disguise their self with the scent hoping it turns into something genuine and innocent. Scandal! I dropped some onto my left lower finger and it smells like sweet almond tofu and powder.

The dry-down smells like someone tried to disinfect the room with a non-citrus based cleaner for a baby room. The hit of 'sweet' notes smell... what the fuck? Dusty like the dirt in the air got jiggy with the talcum powder and a musky sweet. One spot smells different from the other because my hands are telling me there is some genuine sugary sweet trying frantically to get through.

Why waste time chanting her name in the mirror 13 times? Bedevil your next slumber party the easy way! Chunky, glistening red fruits with sweet cream accord, black clotted cherry, and powdered sugar!

Bloody Mary A+ (4.5/5)

(Outside): Prominent burnt cream; sweet and well, creamy x.o.
(Inside: tangy..sour sweet. Cherries? cherry liquor? not alcoholic.. hmm.. cherry cream... argh i had the word.. Not fruity. not very sharp... cherry lemon cream cordial!!

Chemistry: Okay, x.x Need more of this sweet cream accord. Whatever it is.. it's making me smell like cotton candy. If i take a big whiff up close to my wrist, it smells like cherried cotton candy.

Traditionally, Beaver Moon is named thus for a very obvious reason: during this time of year, beavers are hard at work building their dams and preparing for the onset of winter. However, we at BPAL rarely let an opportunity for sleazy campiness pass us by! For your pleasure and amusement, we present this year's incarnation of Beaver Moon: wild cherry with vanilla cream accord, and a hint of strawberry.

Beaver Moon 2007 A (4/5)

(Outside): The outside of the imp smells sweet and slightly sugary.
(Inside: sugary almondy.. touch of spice. sweet...but not strawberry-candy or lolly sweet.
A very artificial nutty sweet.

Chemistry: It's still almost a nutty-sweet almond. I can smell a little bit of spice and it seems to amp the sweetness ... After 10 minutes it smells kind of sugary with a faint strawberry cheesecake topping lingering in the air. And as it calms down further i don't smell much of the almond at all. Instead, i get a really nice, gentle strawberry-vanilla aroma from an otherwise cherry-almond dessert. Really yucky and almond-nutty-in-a-market-stall when wet, deliciously light and sugary on the drydown.

The embodiment of Victorian funereal elegance. A delicate sugar-spun vanilla cream cotton, stained by tobacco and incense, Indian musk, and drops of cognac.

Black Lace A (4/5)

(Outside): Dusty, smoky and of spirits and incense. Really strong, boozy note... Sharp but smooooth.
(Inside:) Wow... I usually do not like heavy, dark and musky smells but this because it reminds me of normal, boring perfume... but this is a wonderfully smooth, dark cognac laced with vanilla smoke. I can see where others fit Snake Oil into this. It's carries a wonderful, warm, lightly spiced feel and has the same sweet edge.

Chemistry: I can really sense the stained cotton in this because the notes feel like they've all soaked into each other. The tobacco, musk and cognac all turn mellow on each other and i'm left with this delicately vintage... vanilla smoke. I smell rich, creamy, elegant and refined. And somehow the whole thing smells smooooth because yes! like others before me have mentioned, it has been blended so very well!
