In the imp: Strawberry and vanilla. Wet on skin: Same as in the imp but with musk. Drydown: The strawberry has settled and now it's mostly vanilla and musk. A softer musk though, not at all unpleasant -- I just wish the strawberry had stuck around.
-
I absolutely love this; I am having the best luck with the Illyria collection! The pear in this is divine and light, and it works perfectly with the lighter florals.
-
The violets in this are too strong for me; I prefer Hope.
-
This is absolutely scrumtrulescent on me! Yum yum yum! May have to find a bottle of this.
-
Myrrh does not agree with my chemistry so sadly this just turns muddy on me.
-
A clean floral. Smells better in the imp than it does on me. :/
-
A beautiful tea rose, with little violet. I have other rose blends that I reach for more often, though.
-
I found the ozone to be overpowering wet on my skin but once it dried down, it settled and I got more of the aquatic, clean scent. Very nice.
-
This was my first white rose blend and I really enjoy it. It's a very soft scent. I'm not in love with it, but I do like it. I hope the new Katrina Van Tassel LE will be a bit closer to what I'm looking for as far as white roses.
-
I love this so much! Lemon, a bit of white musk, and something fresh. I wish the throw was longer, but I love it.
-
I can't find the right words to describe this scent, but when I wear it I feel warm and cosy. It feels like being snuggled in blankets fresh from the dryer. I love it.
-
This is my favorite green scent -- perfect balance of mist/aquatic and herbs. Absolutely lovely.
-
A nice balance between sandalwood and rose when wet on my skin, but as it dries the rose fades and I just get sandalwood and what I'm guessing is patchouli. Boo-urns!
-
Unfortunately, Chimera didn't work any better than The Dodo on me -- my wrist turned pink and itchy.
-
Smells like air freshener. Off to the swap pile it goes!
-
A paradoxical scent experiment! - tangerine, sugared lime, pink grapefruit, oakmoss, lavender, zdravetz, and chocolate peppermint. This is a very odd scent on me! At first I get a lot of lavendar but almost instantly it turns citrusy. After an hour or so I'm getting a chocolate edge to it, and eventually that fade away so it's just citrus.
-
Simply cool, the essence of Lounge: the scent of a crisp pomegranate martini. Sharp, sweet, and a bit bitter on me, Swank is a lovely pomegranate. I'll be swapping it since I prefer Persephone.
-
Mmmm, this is rich and dark -- chocolate with a spice to it.
-
After five minutes this has settled into Lemon Pledge, with a bit of herbs. I hope the mint comes out more as it dries.
-
This is so far my FAVORITE scent from the Mad Tea Party line (pending when I try Knave of Hearts and Drink Me). The perfect blend of spicy and fruity -- I love it!
-
All I got from this was carnation, from wet in the imp to dry on my skin, at which point it just got soapy. I was hoping for a more rosey scent but no such luck.
-
The cinnamon in this is lovely in the imp but it burned me when I applied it to my wrist. Maybe I'd wear it in a scent locket.
-
I just use different parts of my body. wrist, back of the hand, elbow, shoulder, etc.
-
Okay guys, I've tried a few roses and my favorites so far have to be Moon Rose, Persephone and Hope. I just tried Rose Red 2007 and it's just too strong. I prefer the sweeter roses. Can anyone recommend some other roses?
-
All I have to say about 51 is that for me, it's the first BPAL that smells like a EDT/EDP I'd spray on at a department store. I like it because it's not "weird", which is ironic given the theme behind it.
