In bottle: Frankincense, chamomile, teeny bit of woody goodness Wet on skin: A bit of the coconut and orris root are making their appearance, but mostly cedar. Dry on Skin: Cedar with a dry dusty hint in the background. A sweet exhale. The rest of the notes are so well blended that it is difficult to pick them out individually. A very pleasant blend. Very similar in feel to Bony Moon, imo.

Planting Moon has arrived! Huzzah! (clicking on the photo will take you to my flickr, should be a larger photo there.) Also added some more CTV, Queen of Clubs, Haloes, Shub, a few Arcana, and two Cobalt Blends.

I ordered it right after it went live but I got a bunch of other things too that must be slowing it down. I'll post a photo the same day it arrives! No CNS yet.

I'm still waiting for a CNS for my Planter's Moon order placed as soon as they went up on the 8th.

In the bottle: The pear stands out the most. The amber, patchouli, and oakmoss are all blended together nicely to make it warm and earthy. On my skin: Pear and Amber. Mahogany, patchouli and oakmoss again blended together nicely and making it a deeper, darker scent. My favorite of the three.

In the bottle: A bit of current and lot of musk. On skin: Musk and incense.

In the bottle: Odd. Mushroom-y. What the heck, I'll try it. On skin: IT BURNS!!! Ow ow ow, get it off!! Also, major instant nausea which turned into a migraine, even after scrubbing this (and a few layers of skin) off. That was around 8pm. It's 2:30am. Still not feeling good. Never had a reaction like that to a BPAL oil before. But I don't think I'll even be able to sniff it from the bottle again without wanting to hurl. I don't know if I just ate something bad and this scent had the unfortunate luck to be applied at the same time when I started to feel ill or if I'm feeling ill because of a reaction with the fragrance. I'm not allergic to anything in it... I love mushrooms and rhubarb. very annoying, my body.

I'm thinkin TwilightEyes wants the bottles ... not the pictures. Oh, I forgot to post that my Le Mat set is up on flickr. Got 'em yesterday around noon.

I have a picture in my Flickr BPAL gallery. It's a little fuzzy -- my camera didn't want to focus on it. *grumble* Once again, I want to thank TwilightEyes for the wonderful resource she provides with her flickr gallery of BPAL pictures! *looks down, hands behind back, knee bent, scuffing toe in dirt* Aw, shucks. (And if there are any bottles I am missing that you have, feel free to send to me..... muahahaha! )

In the bottle: Very green and refreshing.. The inhale is sweet and tart and reminds me both of tea and candy. I can detect the sage but it is not overpowering. On my skin: The green cedar is coming out. The sweetness is fading and the tart is coming to the forefront. I can feel it on the sides of my tongue. So far a winner!

In the bottle: Vetiver. Will need to retest skin and get back to this, but so far... vetiver.

In the bottle: Sugar scent similar to Sugar Skull. Red licorice. Rum. On the skin: Rum and Whiskey. Reminds me a little of John Barleycorn. Not what I was expecting at all! This one is fairly masculine imo. As it dries, I can actually smell the greasepaint and smoke. I can almost smell the peanuts and corn.

In the bottle: Sweet tobacco and a somewhat creamy vanilla scent on the verge of coffee but not quite. Some woody smell but not sure what kind. On my skin: Hardly any throw. Not a morpher. Did not stay long. Will need to let it age and skin test again.

In the bottle: Clove! On skin: Spicy smooth dusty wood. Did not have much throw for me or last very long, sadly. Will need to retest.

In the bottle: Strawberry and a teeny hint of a boozy drink. On my skin: Woah, hello booze! No officer, I have NOT been drinking!! A little too boozy for my tastes. I could pretty much smell the gin and vermouth overpowering the strawberry. Not as long lasting as the Velvet Unicorn on me.

In the bottle: Dark vanilla cotton candy and a honeyed berry of some sort. Maybe the mixture of strawberry and cherry, but it doesn't really have that "almondy" scent that most cherry has. On my skin: Can't stop sniffing. Has some notes that remind me of Beaver-versary. Not a morpher on me. Some elements of midway too. So far this is the longest lasting one (out of the four that I've tried) -- still on my skin the next morning and is very yummy still. Mostly a vanilla cake with a honey berry undertone. Not getting any florals out of this at all. This was a bit of a surprise hit for me. A lot more vanilla and honey than I expected. Edit: Wore this again yesterday and it was reminding me of Milk Moon 2005. Body chemistry is such an odd thing!

Yay! Got mine today too and got them up on flickr.

Here is the one that I got with the shirt from the trading post: http://www.flickr.com/photos/miss_twilight/2780188662/ I believe it is the same label as the one from the Lab but not 100%.

Yep. Mine is a really brick or dried blood red with what appears to be navy script. Photo was just posted on flickr.

XV (15) In the bottle: Juicy dark strawberry musk On skin: The strawberry is fading and leaving behind vanilla musk. Very dark. Weird how the berry note is totally gone now. Almost resiny at this point. (after a few minutes) -- Strawberry is back, but very light under the dark dark musky vanilla. More like a hint of strawberry.

XXIX (29) I have to admit that I've never smelled Penitence. But this blend is very lovely -- frankincense, myrrh, vanilla rose musk. Warm, sweet, incensey sugared rose.

XVI (16) O and Humbug got together and had vanilla honey licorice babies. This one right here is, so far, my favorite CT evah!! LX (60) In the bottle: Having a hard time figuring out what in the heck this one is. A few other people weren't able to place it either.

XCVI (96) Snake Oil with Red Wine!! I have really been liking the wine notes lately so a winner. I have it in my scent locket as I type. CXXXVII (137) Snake Oil and ... Lavender? This reminds me a bit of Lilith Victoria. DLXXIV (574) This one is VERY Foody -- hazelnut? Cake? Yum. DCXXII (622) Snake oil with rose and lemon?
