In Bottle: Very wet and green. Sort of like the sea, a bit floral initially. On my partner: like disinfectant soap, that sort of smell... It mellows and becomes more floral. On me: Citrus, slightly sweet. It does make me think of soap but not as much as on my partner. 1 hour later on my partner: KFC disinfectant. Hmmmm. He said he would probably still wear it haha! 1 hour later on me: Much less soap, more like the ocean in terms to that salty air smell but sweet. It fades really quickly on me-- probably a good thing. I did get KFC wipes vibes for a bit too. I don't think I would ever wear it but my partner is happy about having the character scent around. We purchased both an imp and a bottle-- will see how the bottle ages.

Yep, reminds me of the dessert! On my boyfriend it smells quite lovely without being too musky or spicy. It's exactly what he wanted and he's happy with it. I find him wearing it more in winter.

It is very light. It does remind me of paper (papyrus) and a little musky but overall it's a very soft scent. My boyfriend is very happy with it on him and I think it represents the character wonderfully. I personally prefer less over-powering musk scents so I don't mind it.

Bottle: Super rich, warm vanilla fig cake. There's something like citrus on my nose. On: Sweet, nutty, warm Dry: Super sweet milk-- I know it sounds strange but it makes me think of warm milk with lots of honey. I'm getting a lot of sweetness on me. 30 Mins: A little less sweet, more nutty. Definitely getting some sort of buttercream here and still a very warm scent with that citrus musk note again. Much later: The ambrette seed comes through and lingers at the end, which on my skin and nose, to me smells like nutty, citrus musk. It's not unpleasant but I don't know if it's for me. I think this would make a lovely winter scent. Honestly I am really pleased to have a foody Fool scent and the lingering ambrette note works well to stop it from being cloying and too sweet for too long. Worth a shot if you like sweet food scents.

Bottle: Smells like regular Perversion with some extra spices underlining. On: I'm getting more spice, like cloves and cinnamon coming through on top of Perversion (which has always been a lovely sweet tobacco on me) 30 mins later: Spices were short lived which is a shame and normal Perversion comes out over the top. Like other reviewers its definitely more Perversion than Pumpkin Spice. I'm going to keep it because Perversion is one of my all time favorites but wished I gotten a bottle of normal Pumpkin Spice to layer. I think I actually prefer normal Perversion over Pumpkin Spice Perversion though (at least on me).

Bottle: Green mango, sweet Wet: Like bubblegum mango 10 Minutes: Definitely more green mango, and I get a bit of green tea. Patchouli just wafts in the background and fig adds a subtle sweetness to it. Definitely not too sweet or floral but quiet effeminate at the same time. Dry down: More patchouli I think-- that wet earth smell? With a touch of sweetness still and green mango. Maybe even more green tea here. It's quite a nice mature effeminate scent. I don't know if I will be wearing this one too often, but I could see myself enjoying this one a lot in summer.

Wet: Anise. Haha On: definitely gives off the scent of Absinthe Drydown: Annnnd it's still there! Just settled and more wearable, definitely a whiff of cirrus at the end (but in the barest way). Lovely

Wet: Artificial chocolate, or like cocoa power. Something like a chocolate spread but not a block... Definitely a great comparison of Rubber Poop. On: Less artificial and more warmth to it, sort of like a hot chocolate? I know I keep using food comparisons but that is what it makes me think of haha! Drydown: It's really quite a lovely warm chocolate scent! Officially mocha and wonderful to wear.

Floral scents tend not to work on me but it was worth a try! Wet: Sugary floral soap On: Still soapy, but a bit of warmth in the back of the nose (pepper apparently). Drydown: Hmm like bubblegum now that's interesting. Definitely not for me but might make a nice girly scent

Wet: ...Like a woody beach? On: Woah, a mix of things here that I can't quite put my nose on. "Musky weird base over..." is definitely a good description Drydown: Like sweet lacquer on me It is a bit cloying unfortunately. Will need to pass it on

Perversion, you are a delight!!! I received this as an imp in a mix of foodie/girly scents next to some masculine scents thanks to the boyfriend, and figured I'd might as well smell the imp... and oh wow! Wet: Very sweet On: less sweet, more warmth, something very masculine about it and similar to rum Dry: Delicious warm vanilla musk. Thankfully for me I get more of the tonka over the tobacco so it comes out just beautiful and earthy, like a sweet tobacco. Definitely a fantastic androgynous scent <3 I totally purchased a bottle! Update: Tried this scent on my boyfriend and it came out as sickly sweet and floral on him. Luckily for me I get to keep the whole bottle It's absolutely one of my favorite scents from BPAL and the bottle version smells just as lovely.

O is unfortunately Oh No for me to begin with... it does mellow out but it might be my skin chemistry. Wet: It might be the amber but it smells a bit like medicinal cherry on my nose. On: Something about it just smells a bit cloying on me. I personally think it's because this is my first amber scent, and well, within reason it might be because amber doesn't work for me (as I now know). It does however... Dry: ...mellow out to a nice honey vanilla scent which is wearable and fortunately I am good with foody scents. Unfortunately not for me but will work well for a friend

I got mine through Geeks Doing Good! In bottle sniff: Soapy... Uhoh I tend not to do well with soapy scents On wet: Floral, surprisingly minty and actually slightly tingly on my skin Dry: Slightly musty floral. And something else which to me is like a zest but not lemon and now vanilla 1 hour later: No more floral, slightly musty vanilla. 2nd try: I didn't get the tingly this time, but still had that scent of 'freshly picked warmed from the sun' yuzu/mandarin citrus, which I can only think must be what other people are describing as leather. On me it mellows out to be quite a fantastic scent, one that I think fits Bast perfectly and thankfully smells fantastic on me. Love it

The Apple of Sodom (imp) Wet: Tart green apple, like a freshly cut granny smith with something slightly floral, maybe a "fake" apple smell almost Dry/30 mins later: Slightly sour, floral green apple. I'm not sure if I'm getting the ash, but maybe the sweetness of the apple overpowers it. I will probably give this away

IMP: Floral and a tad medicinal. Must be the tea or something... On: Very floral/tea smelling. Tea scents must not go very well on me, or at least I'm not a fan. It's very pretty though and I don't seem to be getting a headache from it, like I usually do. Gradually becomes sweeter and less floral-- more tea. It feels warm. Dry down: The combination of "ingredients" in this perfume actually work very well together. I think I'm getting a milky tea at this point-- still very warm-- I can't work out what's making it smell "warm"... it's not "nutty" but it's something similar to that. I like it but I don't think I'll purchase a big bottle-- Will definitely be using up the imp though. I can't seem to pick the smell of linen...

IMP: Coconut comes through the strongest ON: I'm already getting a headache with this one... I like coconut but I don't think it's a perfume smell for me. The musk note is another one I'm not usually a fan of. This scent comes out a lot stronger than I thought it would. Dry down: More musk. Ah well. Musk fans will be happy with this one

IMP: Black currant and lavender On skin: Quite soft on me which is a surprise. The lavender and musk works on me in this scent-- it usually doesn't. Dry down: This scent faded very quickly on me. It ends on a musky note. Overall it smelt better on me than I thought, but won't be a bottle for me.

IMP: Flowery. Uhoh. I was hoping it'd be more tea. On skin: Alright so it's not as flowery as it was from the imp. But unfortunately it smells soapy on me... like liquid hand washing soap. Dry down: Urgh. I had to wash this off because it was giving me a big headache. Another Alice scent that sadly isn't for me. I really wanted this to work for me as I love tea. Ah well

IMP: Sweet, smells almost like honey. On skin: I think it's the vanilla and currants I can smell here. There's an undertone that reminds me of "ice plants" or aqua (one of my favorite smells ever! ♥). I'm not quite sure what it is but I'm loving it on me Dry down: I'm still smelling the ice plants, but I'm getting some sweet currants here. Very lovely ♥ My favorite of the Alice scents at the moment (even better than Bread and Butterfly!). I'm so much in love this! Gonna be a big BIG bottle for me ♥

IMP: woody vanilla On skin: Hmmm unfortunately soapy on my skin which is a shame as I'd really have liked this one to work on me This combination doesn't seem to work for me at all. Dry down: Still soapy and a bit like medicinal musk. Sadface. Definitely not for me. My guess is the sweet pea or sandalwood as vanilla usually works on me.

IMP: I'm instantly reminded of custard and pineapple, without reading the description On skin: Hmm there's "pastry" in there. Kinda like a pineapple custard tart I suppose. Dry down: Wow cherry really comes through here. It's giving me a headache-- I'm not a fan of cherry I was hoping it'd just be faint, but it gets to the "medicinal" stage on me. That's a shame as I really liked how it smelt to begin with. --- After note: After a few more tries I'm giving up on this scent. I was really hoping and wanting this one to work for me Ah well... it's reluctantly off to a cherry-lovin' friend!

Not only is "bread and butter" one of my favorite desserts, the "Bread-And-Butterfly" is my favorite insect off of Looking Glass. I was so happy when it was released! Imp: Pure maple syrup, pancakes Wet: A *little* less sweet than the imp, something slightly floral. It no longer reminds me so much of pancakes and it tickles my nose. Dry: Getting buttery-er and bread-ier but still sweet. A nice and "creamy" smell now, similar to vanilla. After an hour: Almost like buttered bread dipped into sweet tea (yummy). It's more butter than I expected and less sweet, but still very nice. I think I'll be buying a big bottle.
