    Chimera

    I bought this, hoping it would be a great cinnamon scent. And in the bottle it's divine! However on me, the cinnamon goes away almost entirely, and it turned very powdery, which is not a scent I particularly enjoy. I can see how other people would enjoy it, but it's not for me.

    Grog

    To me, this smells almost exactly like Anne Beany, but a bit more of that tobacco note when dry. Something in it is also making my skin itch for some reason, I've never encountered that before in a bpal scent! It *is* yummy, but I like my Beany a bit better

    Follow Me Boy

    Finally got around to ordering this one! At first, I get jasmine. No, rose. No, jasmine. They keep fighting eachother, I swear! It's a bit strong, and threatens to go 'dirty diaper' on me at times. A few hours in, it's AMAZING. I adore this scent. I still get a bit of jasmine, but I also get something sweet, all I can think is 'jasmine and cookies'. I'm not sure what the sweet note is, I can't really pick it out. Maybe the ginger I keep seeing mentioned. A slight touch of lemon. But really, jasmine and cookies! It fades on me a bit after a few hours, but I keep getting whifs of it as I move around, and it's just gorgeous. As for what it does, I've had more people come up and just hang out and talk here at work today, which makes me laugh. So the 'attracting' part seems to work quite well! As for the financial, I'm sure time will tell This'll be a big bottle order for me once the imp is done!

    Benevolent Triple Conjunction

    This one is an odd one, but in a good way. I've played with it every day since I got it (this past Saturday, so 3 days now), and it's a bit different every single time. I get a whole LOT of rose every time, which isn't one of my favorites, but I've been putting up with it. For the first 2 days, it stayed very flowery, with a bit of something sweet to it. Somewhat different both days, but along the same lines. Today, I'm getting the lemon that people seem to be picking up, along w/the rose still, and I actually really like it. Which is good, because I get some mega throw on this. As for what it does...I have to say that as son as I put it on, it's like INSTANT happy! At first I thought maybe it was just me really hoping it would do that, but today I was in a hellish mood, grumpy as all get out, annoyed that my fiance was making me leave the house and be social because I really just wanted to stay home and be lazy. I opened up my bpal drawer, thought 'why not?', and dabbed a bit on again today. Mood = instantly better, as soon as it touched my skin. And not just 'okay I can handle this today now', but more 'let's DO this! Wheeeeeee!!!' This'll be one I'll be using only when I need it I think (I'm always afraid I'll come to rely on these things, or 'wear them out' I guess), but I'm so glad I got a bottle (004, for anyone curious )!!!

    Gluhwein

    Just received this today! This is...delicious. Thick and warm and delicious. I have also discovered I must amp honey, because the honey is REALLY strong on me. I get whiffs of cinnamon and wine and the slightest bit of vanilla at times, but mostly...it's the honey. I'm not sure this is a 'wear a lot' scent, but it certainly is a special occasion scent!

    Lemon-Scented Sticky Bat

    I'm not sure about this one. I ADORE lemon, but I think the sugar comes out much more strongly on me! In the bottle it's fantastic. Smells like one of those candy gummy lemon wedges. On me...the lemon first turns fairly sour, and then the sugar comes out. REALLY comes out. I feel like I smell more like a Strawberry Shortcake doll than anything. I like it, but I'm not sure I love it.

I take peeks at Neil Gaiman and Wil Wheaton every now and then as well. And lastly... surprise! the world has given you the day off. You hear that, no chores, responsibilities, or budget you have to follow. What would you do in those 24 hours? -Buy everything I wanted from Michaels/Alphastamps.com. Hey you said no budget!

Also Boris Vallejo and Julie Bell, Grant Gould, Brom, Brian Froud, David Delemare, Jody Bergsma, and my favorite - Stephanie Pui-Mun Law.

If so, what kind (snap clips, scrunchie, headband, etc), how big & crazy (lowkey, bigger the better), and colors. - I'm getting big into hair flowers right now.

Cheap earrings tend to go green on me though But I have 11 holes in my ears! Chocolate. With stuff in it? Are you more a plain chocolate lover, a chocolate and normal items lover (normal items being nuts, fruit, caramel) or do you like weird stuff in your chocolate? (weird stuff being curry, chilis, balsamic vinegar, floraly things) -I like white chocolate. AND I like chocolate with bacon in it I wouldn't ship any to me though, I live in Orlando and the weather tends to make it a bit melty If you were able to get a vintage or prototype bottle from the upcoming West Coast Will Call, which one would you want? - I don't really know how any of them smell on me, but I would love to try Monsterbait:Underpants, or CD:Alley of Games DVDs, Blu-Ray, both, neither? - DVDs! I don't currently have a Blue-Ray player. What's your favorite animal? Or is there one that's particularly significant to you? -The phoenix has been showing up more and more often, whether in thoughts or cards or whatnot. Bunnies are a big thing of mine, as Bunny was (okay, still is) my mom's nickname for me. And can Cthulhu count as an animal? Sock Dreams? What kind? (anklets, footies, etc.?) -OMG yes. I love arm warmers (though not the kind with seperate fingers - I don't like the fingerless glove style quite so much, they're usually too tight on my fingers), and thigh highs (but not the sock type ones, I has fat thighs and that type doesn't usually work well on me. I like the thin ones!) Since this is a price capped round, would you rather get one "big" thing or lots of "little" things or don't care? -I think I would prefer lots of little things, or maybe a medium thing and a few little things. Do you like pirate-related things? - Arrrrrr. For those who like lipgloss, lipstick, tinted balms, etc, what colors do you wear (and warm? cool?) and do you prefer something sheer or more opaque? How do you feel about shimmer? -I don't really wear a whole lot of lip stuff, I tend to eat it off, or it goes all flaky on me really fast. I do like the 'mark' lip stain 'kissink', and need it in 'berry bitten' Are there any fancy/gourmet/special herbs or spices that you'd love to receive? ie: good quality vanilla or other extracts, vanilla beans, saffron, lavender, etc. -I actually used to love wearing vanilla potpourri oil, and haven't really been able to find a good one in a while. What periods of art do you love most? Like, if someone was going to get you a tapestry or a box or some other item, what period would you want it to most resonate with? the pinks and golds of Rococo? the clean geometry of Art Deco? The romanticism of Art Nouveux? The strange lines of Cubism? -I do love me some Art Deco and Art Nouveux Would you like caffeinated lollipops?: -meh. Copied CD's or DVD's? - Sure!! Would you want an invite to a site that is invite-only ex. Diaspora, Demonoid, etc. If so, what? - Not really. Pillows? What size/designs/colors would most interest you? - No. purses? bags? What style/colors? - Maybe a good messenger bag - with a really long strap, olive or brown. Decorative scarves for hair and/or creative accessorizing? What colors? - I have a bunch and never wear them, though I always think I want to! Would you like anything from Starring Fragrances. They make awesome hair stuff, natural deoderant, and home fragrance (and a ton of other stuff, those are just my favs)? - No thanks! How do you feel about nail polish? What colors do you like? Sparkles? -Oh gods I love nail polish! Usually not big on actual glitters - unless it's glass flecked (too hard to get off!!). I love blues and greens, I need some good purples though. I tend to prefer sparkly/shimmery ones, and not a fan of 'normal' colors (reds and pinks, unless they're faboo), or neons. There's been an update...anything you're desperate for? - Nope! I am safe this time around, lol! What are your thoughts on comics? Any you like? Any you have been wanting to try? Favorite characters? -I like Kabuki by David Mack, the art is just gorgeous!! I have the first few trades, I don't remember where I stopped yet. Same with Sandman - though I'd love to start over with the new updated trades. I really want to read Walking Dead, Fathom, Girl Genius, and Fables. Ok geek check - what sort of geeky things do you do? Do you read comics/graphic novels? Are you obsessed with something (a TV show maybe?) Do you work in a geeky field? Do you play rpgs like Dungeons and Dragons? Would you like gifts related to any of these? - Sailor Moon!! I play a TON of WoW (For the Horde!! I'm an Orc Hunter ) - and I collect mini-pets in game. I don't have any of the purchaseable ones except Lil KT and the Pandaren Monk, and I also don't have ANY from the TCG. I would love to play Munchkin (apparently they have a Zombie version? *dies*) because I never have and I tend to adore Steve Jackson. I also love most of the shirts from ThinkGeek.com & Jinx.com (2X currently, XL hopefully soon to be, I'm losing weight!). Also, Doctor Who. LOVE LOVE LOVE Doctor Who!! Do you have a favorite fabric? If someone were to make you a fabric item, would you prefer it be out of any fabric? e.g. velvet, satin, silk, cotton, bamboo??? Would this change if it were an article of clothing vs. a bag/pillow/blanket/somethingelse - Not especially, I like a lot of different fabrics If your Witch lived near you, would you be happy or creeped out to get a "coupon" for a service like cleaning help or babysitting or dogwalking or coffee out with your Witch or something like that? Would you be creeped out if a local minion personally delivered a package to your house from a far-away Witch? - Er, creeped out? I'm private like that sometimes O_o I suppose if they lived near, a lunch date or something might be fun though Let's say I have a pair of something you collect, would you like one of them and we have matching things? -That would be so cute!! What three things are you craving right now? - Steampunk jewelry (I love keys...), more rubber stamps of funky vintagy things, and a nap with my fiance paper goods, anyone need? including resume paper, and formal stationery as well as casual cards. - I love paper goods that I can cut up for ATCs What is a scent that you've been trying to find even a sample of for a very long time to no avail? (What bottle would you die to get your hands on - even a partial?) - PO13. A prototype that I was frimped one day forever ago, I adore it and wish I could get more of it!! Is there anything in your life that you'd like advice or a "selfhelp" book for?: (ie finances, eating healthier, meal planning) - Fun 'positive thinking' kinds of things. My favorite thing right now is TUT's Notes From the Universe, I get them in my email every day I like the stuff that's a bit different, not the same self help kind of thing you hear all the time Also, I'm trying to learn about Wicca and Paganism, and am also trying to be careful about what I read. I adore Laurie Cabbot and own "The Power of the Witch", and I also own "Wicca: A Guide for the Solitary Practitioner" by Scott Cunningham, as that's what I am Violette Market Update is up. Do you covet anything from it? -I've never heard of that O_o What is your favorite type of wine? Would you be interested in trying something new? In that case, is there anything you really DON'T like? Ooooo how about dessert wines? - You know, I really don't know much about wine at all. I've been a very casual drinker of it, but it is something I'd like to get more into! I'd especially like to know what's considered a 'good' wine, and what's considered a 'cheapo' wine, I've brought stuff to parties before and been looked at like I was trailer trash *hides* Easter Candy - do you like it? If so, what types? - Trying to stay away from teh candy!!! What scent(s) are you petrified of getting DC'd? - Oooh, I don't know. My most common 'go to' scent right now is Block Buster, so maybe that? *shrug* Are you interested in trying Super Villainess (from Villainess - the birthday scent that was just released tonight!) and if so, which item do you like the most? (Soap, Whipped, Smooch, Extrait, Smack...) -Probably not that particular scent. If I were to order you a Smack, which four notes would you like? -Oooh, I've never tried those! I don't know if I'd want 4 scents combined, but I could see using either a Vanilla Bean/Spice Trade or Vanilla Bean/Lemon Meringue. Buttercream Cupcake sounds delicious as well, but I don't know what else I'd pair it with! Maybe Spice Trade again? Would you enjoy receiving a knitted gift from your witch? If so what would you be interested in (scarf, hat, wrist / handwarmers, socks, etc.) and in what colors? -Oooh yes! I love scarves - LOOOONG scarves, like down to my knees. I wont' wear them otherwise. Also arm warmers, with or without thumb holes. I like lots of colors - turquoise, deep purple, olive green, grass green, maroon, deep orange, magenta, black. Any of those colors would be fine Would you be squicked if I made you something with a kiss print that was made with my actual lips? (The ones on my face!) I solemnly swear I don't have mono, Ebola, or any sort of French disease. Bubonic plague is still on the table. - A bit O_o Is that bad? What is the coolest thing you have recently bought or been given that wouldn't exceed the price cap? - A cool necklace of an old-looking pocket watch. Though it has a clear cover rather than metal, and I have to say I had visions of a steampunked Flava Flav in my head when I put it on...lol!!! It may be used for costumes only, when it wouldn't look quite so much like that to me. Do people like Roller Derby? If so, would you want anything from that sport? Like memorabilia or anything? - Roller Derby is starting to facinate me. I'd love to do it, though the way my knees are right now it's out of the question. I'd love to learn more about it though, I really don't know anything about it at all! Journals? -Only if they were extremley relevant to my interests I have a few blank ones already that I haven't touched.

    Womb Furie

    I like this. I'm not a huge fan of Snake Oil alone - I like the scent in very small doses, but I feel amazing every time I try to wear it. I see people comparing this to O as well, and I HATE O. I get the 'sour vomit' with that one as well. But this I really like. I can smell the Snake Oil in this, but the honey seems to balance it out really nicely, and each seems to take turns coming up to the front. It's AMAZINGLY strong though, just a dab on the back of my hand when I tested it was almost too much. Very overwhelming on me! I do like this one a whole lot, but unless it calms down a bit this will be a special occasion one only.

    Block Buster

    I LOVE this, more and more every time I put it on. What it's used for is something I need to work on anyway - being more flexible! As I'm also really working to get back into creating art, I thought it might be good one to wear for that as well. When I wear it, I feel more...awake? It's hard to explain. I feel relaxed and calm, yet excited and aware all at the same time. It sort of makes my brain tingle a bit, if that makes sense. It's hard for me to not wear this every single day! The smell is lovely. In the imp I admit I didn't like it at all, but dabbed a bit on the back of my hand. Almost instantly it morphed into something with a bit of apple, a bit of cinnamon, and a whole lot of herbal goodness, and I LOVED it. It smells a bit of potpourri to me, and something in it also makes me think of olive oil. Very happy I tried this one, and I think I will end up getting a bottle of this once my imp runs out.

    Ginger scents & the different types of ginger notes

    I'm looking forward to trying Mother Ginger, I have Shub and this years Gingerbread Poppet already. I adore both, but Shub tends to get somewhat metallic on me after a while, and Gingerbread Poppet 2010 is pretty much my PERFECT scent, but does not last on me. At all. It's good for about 20 minutes, and then I can only smell it if I put my arm almost inside my nose.
  11. zombiewench

    Gingerbread Poppet

    2010 version. I got this in a decant circle, and I ADORE this scent. At first this is just sweet, sweet gingerbread on me, which is wonderful. Then it goes through the cinnamon phase - though to me it REALLY smells like those Atomic Fireball candies, and I LOVED those as a kid, so I was okay with that, too. Dried down, it smells like a combination of the Atomic Fireball and the sweet gingerbread - not really fighting each other, but lazily dancing and taking turns leading. Love it, love it, and WILL be buying a bottle!

    Anne Beany

    This year, Lilith, our little Beans, is having a pirate-themed party, and the perfume created to commemorate her second birthday possesses a silly, playful scent - a toddler's nod to cartoon pirates. Rum cheesecake with a hardtack crust, topped with rum ice cream and a drizzle of butterscotch topping. Oh my. In the bottle this is amazing. Crusty, rum, butterscotch, cheesecake, I get it all! On me however...I'm not sure. It's ridiculously strong - even just a drop seems to be too much on me. At first I still get the same scent in the bottle, but then it changes. First it goes through a short phase where it's AWFUL, and I can't figure out why. Then it's very maple syrupy to me - it reminds me of One Barrel Rum (my favorite!!), but then there's also a bit of...musty? Like an old wood chest with old clothes or something. I think I would love this if I could just figure out how to tone it down a bit. I put it on my wrist as usual, but maybe I need to put it somewhere else? This may become more of an atmosphere scent than an 'on me' scent.
  13. I agree on the mint note, that helps me quite a bit when I need it, too. I also really like Aunt Caroline's Joy Mojo - it's very much a 'candy' smell, and one of the 'Voodoo' blends (I know some people won't use those blends for that reason). It's not an every day scent for me, but I do use it when I'm having a particularly bad day, and it's worked every single time!
  14. zombiewench

    Shub-Niggurath

    This is just amazing. Dark gingerbread indeed!! Everything about it is wonderful. It turns a bit more woodsy on me as it dries down, but still just wonderful. Apparently has quite a bit of throw to it, one lady walking by said it smelled like Christmas near my cube and that it made her happy, and another coworker all of a sudden said it smelled like pie when I put some on and really liked it. This has quickly become a favorite!!
  15. zombiewench

    Bayou

    This one is so interesting on me. In the bottle it smells... Green? Not sure, but it just smells nice. Once on, oh my is it strong!! Glad I only put a dab on. It turns floral as it dries. REALLY floral, I actually tried to wash it off. Not a bad floral, but incredibly strong. It didn't wash off very well, and after an hour or so...I love this. It's turned very aquatic, with a touch of floral-not perfumey floral...something more southern feeling. Not sure what it is. I am just in love with how aquatic it smells on me though! I don't know how often I want to go through the dry down, but the end result may be worth it. EDIT - Okay, after a month of wearing it, this has become one of my favorites. Once I realized how aquatic it was, the dry down didn't bother me anymore. I realized the floral must be jasmine, I was standing by a wall of it a few weeks ago, and a breeze came up and all of a sudden all I could smell was the same floral in Bayou...and tadah! Jasmine! I need to buy a bottle of this, as my imp fell out of my bag, and spent the weekend baking in my hot car in Florida. The baking must have done something to it, because it really didn't smell the same after that, and it wasn't a pleasant smell So a bottle is now a must!!!
  16. zombiewench

    Aunt Caroline's Joy Mojo

    This one is interesting to me. The smell is very bubble-gummy in the Imp, but when it's on, it smells a lot like candy dots - the kind that you peel off the paper. It reminds me so much of a candy store my mom used to take me to up in New England, though I honestly can't remember where it was, or what it was called. A little goes a LONG way with this one, and on me it's got some great staying power. I don't LOVE the scent, but I do like it a fair amount. The reason it's a keeper for me though is that it WORKS. It really puts me in a great mood as soon as I put it on. Now whether it's the actual ingredients or whether it's me willing it to work enough so it does - I don't know. But after after several times wearing it the last few weeks, and it working every time, it's a keeper for certain!

    All Night Long

    This one became an INSTANT favorite, I'll be getting a big bottle of this for certain once my imp runs out. In the bottle, it smelled like cinnamon and sugar. When I first put it on me, all I could think was 'it smells like cinnamon and happy!'. Which made me laugh, but that's what I thought! Now that I've had it on for a few hours, the cinnamon has faded quite a bit - but still there, and I'm now also getting a more...woodsy smell. I can't decide if it's pine, or cloves, or cedar, or a mix of all 3, but I just LOVE it. I will say *I'm* feeling somewhat...excited, but I'll have to wait until tonight to try it on the boy ;D I'll try to remember to update my review with whether it 'works' or not. But I really just love the scent so much I'll be buying a bottle for that alone! I can also see this as a great room scent, and plan on trying that soon! EDIT: Doesn't seem to have ANY effect on the boy whatsoever. NONE! I've worn this quite a bit since my review however, and still just adore the scent.
  18. zombiewench

    Snake Oil

    Also somewhat new to BPAL, though this was my third shipment of samples I REALLY wanted to like this one, after seeing so many great reviews. However...it's not quite my thing. It's a lovely scent, vanilla with some sort of unfamiliar spice to it, but it's just not quite me. It's VERY strong, so I am wondering if my issue is that I put on too much - a very little seems to go a very long way with this one. I can see myself keeping this one, but only to wear every now and then. I'll also be setting this aside to see how it ages - I see a lot of people saying that it ages very well! The surprising thing with this one is how I FEEL wearing it. I feel very confident, and sexy - and I'm not even dressed up! I wasn't expecting that as it's not one of the 'voodoo' blends, but it's a great effect!

    Jolly Roger

    EASILY my favorite so far. Every time I smell it, I get something a little different. Sometimes the wood, sometimes the leather, sometimes the ocean. I never seem to smell the Bay Rum though. The ocean scent comes out a bit more as it dries, and I love it. Has some GREAT staying power on me as well! It's great on me, but I could also imagine it smelling great on the boy as well. Will def. be buying a full size bottle of this when the imp runs out!
