In the bottle, it smells 'cold'. I can't describe it. It isn't minty or anything like that. On the skin, there is a slight mint note. And again, I smell 'cold'. It isn't a really strong scent either. But I like it. This is my curse, really great scents work really well on me, but they do not last long.

In the imp, I don't get much of anything. When first applied, I get a pretty strong mint and sandalwood. As it dried, the mint and sandalwood became less pronounced. I'm left with a slightly minty, slightly smokey scent. Its not bad, but doesn't have much throw.

This smells a lot like the City in the Sea to me. This has a pretty distinct citrus note too. Its pretty lemony. I need more of this...

In the bottle, it smells like wet leaves and snow. On the skin, it becomes less 'harsh' and it smells like BPALs snow. Its kind of minty like Nuclear Winter is. Very nice.

I found my imp of this again. I get a whole lot of hazelnut once this is applied. Its really strong. As it dries, it becomes almost peanut-like. And I don't like peanuts. Don't like the smell or the taste. Nothing else stands out at ALL. Hardcore peanuts... I wanted to love this. From the description, it sounds EPIC. But on the skin, not so much. This might go back with the rest of the imps/decants or onto the swap pile...

Crimson Christmas. This is my white whale. I've been looking for this for so long... In the bottle and on the skin, I get a sort of cold and some peppermint in the background. Its slightly smokey too. It isn't quite what I expected, but I'm not disappointed either.

Berry Moon really lives up to its name. The blueberries and raspberries are very prominent. I don't get much honey, and I don't know what fig smells like, but this is quite nice.

Another one of those 'Damn, why couldn't I have known about BPAL back when this was live!?!?' scents... I have a lot like that. I get a sort of cologne-y scent with this. There is an almost citrus scent in the background (lemon?). There is a very profound aquatic note here, too. God this is SO good... I wish I had more than my half an imp.

I found an imp of this in the ol' imp box the other day, and I'm glad I did! On the skin, I get cypress and snow, not much in the way of berries. Its also got an ozone type smell to it. I'm liking this. This goes in my box, not the swap pile.

Upon the Sea of Glass, glowing with the perfection of spiritual union and the radiance of true wisdom, rests the throne of God. A scent of inimitable purity, crystalline grace, and limitless light. In the imp and on the skin, I get a sharp ozone-y scent. As it dries, it becomes slightly floral and has almost a sweat pea sort of smell to it. I think I like it. This might make it onto my wishlist.

I've said it before and I'll say it again. I LOVE sandalwood. I get a lot of sandalwood is this. The rose doesn't stand out as much as the sandalwood, and I don't get much patchouli (luckily). This is a great scent. I it.

I loves me some Moon of Ice. I don't get much eucalyptus (thank Jebus) but there is a heavy pine note that I love. I don't know what exactly traditional lunar oils, but they can't be that bad.

2008 version. In the bottle and on the skin, I get a lot of mint. As it dries, it remains minty. I love it.

In the bottle and on the skin, I smell something that reminds me of gummies. Thats the best thing I can liken it to. I don't know if thats the amber or not. Its a smell I like, but don't really want to smell LIKE.

This is probably one of my favorite lunacies. I don't know why it doesn't get more love. I almost can't smell anything in the bottle. On the skin it has an almost floral note (the wind?) to it. I get almost no smoke, which is a good thing. It is hard to describe this oil. Its a very light scent and a definate winner.
