    Shoggoth

    Very pretty! Sparkling and effervescent green smell with strongs whiffs of coconut Not something I'd wear often, but very nice to try.

    Meditation in Autumn

    WTF?! I get Victoria's Secret Pink mixed with their Sexy Little Things wieeeeerd! Absolutley beautiful, don't get me wrong, but nothing at all like the scent description. Light, beautiful floral with wisteria or something like purple perfume. Crazy!

    Green Phoenix

    Ack! I spilt it!! Well, not wanting it to go to waste I rubbed what I could get off my table onto my arm. It's so fresh and gorgeous! Very much like Squirting cucumber, without..y'know, the strong dose of cucumber Fresh and lovely - why oh why did I have to spill it?!?!

    Knecht Ruprecht

    Forest trees covered in cold snow with a rich background of fruit and nut! Yummy and wild. Great blend that is slightly herby and reminds me quite a bit of this ear's Frau Holle.

    Glasgow

    Sweet, sparkling air with a juicy undertone Absolutely lovely!!

    Luminescent indeed! Glowing, fresh and slightly salty Great scent and I'm very grateful for my frimp!

    Faustus

    Argh. Turns to powder. It takes about an hour to do it, but goes to heavy powder where before it was a dark and dusty blend. Not great on me even before the morph.

    The Deep Ones

    Heavy aquatic! "Drooping" indeed. There's a good depth to it added from the seaweed. Probably not one I'd wear often, but a good aquatic!

    Hexennacht (2005, 2016)

    Mmm, musk and herbs! Not terribly strong on me, but a wild smell of sensual abbandonment. Awesome and I'm very grateful to have my imp!

    Iambe

    Lovely and rich floral with a depth from the darker notes that makes it very pleasant. A little too on the floral side for me though. Pretty!

    Tiresias, the Androgyne

    Dark and rich! It was working quite nicely, but never really developed into something that grabbed me. No notes in particular coming through other than a pleasant darkness. So many notes I love though, I'll have to try again later.

    Tavern of Hell

    This was one of the first BPAL's I ever tried and it is pretty much solid flower on me. Nice, but not really my style.

    The Raven

    This should have been awesome Somewhere along the way though, the lovely darkness turned to powder-city on me.

    Anactoria

    Drat! While musk and amber are some of my favorite notes, sometimes they go horribly wrong Such was my long sought Anactoria. Rats! Dark, smelly and aggressively bitter.

    And There Was A Great Cry In Egypt

    This is much more subtle and refined than I expected it to be. I barely catch much of a whiff of anything. A little too subtle on me I'll probably hold onto it and try again. Vaguely spicy and plant-like?

    The Sailor's Den

    Dark, rich and very busy. A bit of coconut and spice with a dark brown base. Piratical Not much throw, but a very complex and interesting scent.

    Les Anges Déchus

    I don't know if it was the "life everlasting", but there was a slight hint of pickle in this one Very strange! I think I would have liked it, but there was that subdued scent of pickle behind it all the time! Not much throw.

    Spirit of the Komachi Cherry Tree

    Fresh, sweet and light. Feminine in the best way possible. Juicy Asian pear. Really beautiful!
  19. Eeeek! Love, love, love!! This is harsh and agressive in a delightful, mischievous way. Fiery without the kitchen pantry smell I usually get from cloves. The pepper comes out quite a bit on me and the pathcouli is down and dirty just the way I like it Lasts on my skin forever, too! A++++

    Jupiter

    Whew! this one is strong Very confident and slightly aggressive. This is what I associate with vetiver, but I'm not sure what exactly it is... Fuzzy, dark, and strong.

    Enraged Orangutan Musk

    Hmmm light. Much lighter than I was expecting from an "aggresive" musk blend. Not very distinct - where Smut turned into a rich sex-fest, this one has a slight bitter orange tang to it. Doesn't really blossom on my skin. I had really high hopes for this, but musks are really unpredictable on me - glad to try it though!

    All Souls

    I might be having a wierd chemistry day, but I don't get alot from this oil. I get a little sweetness and some slight cakey-ness, but not much incense or really anything to pin down. I'll stick with All-Saints Edit to add that this is '07

    Needle in a Haystack

    I was really, really hoping for more hay out of this one Smells exactly like Pumpkin IV '07 on me (the one with sweetgrass and sage). Warm, golden pumpkin with the grassy note coming through after about an hour. Nice, but I'll stick with Pumpkin IV. It does change a bit and become... denser than IV '07 after several hours. Interesting!

    Chrysanthemum Moon

    oooh! Dark musk and the thick, slightly bitter scent of mums. Dark and decadent. Love it! Great staying power too - lasted overnight and into the next day.

    Red Lantern

    I absolutely adore this! Rich, exotic and filled with all my loves woring in perfect harmony! Amber, tobacco, and I get a bit of musk too! Dark coconut in the background. Fantastic.
