Alice...smells just like I envision her. Delicate, lightly sweet in a little blue dress and blonde hair. I wish Alice was a little darker & foodier (in scent anyway). It is so lovely though. I smell light creamy honey, carnation, but not much rose. Very pretty though.

Lush to BPAL scent comparisons (BNever included too)
vanilla323 replied to Vanilla's topic in Recommendations
I must know what BPAL perfume oil smells like Soft Coeur the heart shaped vanilla, chocolate, honey, tiny bit of orange massage bar. Sorry if it was already asked but this is a long thread and I need to know now! I recently picked it up at Lush and oh my I need this scent in a BPAL now. -
In the bottle I smell vanilla (cheesecake) and light lavender. On skin this is just so pretty and soft. Not usually something I go for I love strong scents. But there's something about the honey and lavender that sucks me in and calms me. And I don't like lavender usually either. This just comforts me. I wore it to bed once too and it was sweet dreams for me. Glad I was lucky enough to get the lavender cheesecake dream.

Limited editions equivalents in the general catalog?
vanilla323 replied to Absinthe's topic in Recommendations
I thought about that one too. It sounds nice. I was able to add it to my shopping cart, but didn't buy it. Where did you see that it was discontinued? Maybe they are shipping it again! How could we find out? -

I'm so torn. I may just order both (Goblin & Tombstone) and hope for the best! I could always swap/sell if they don't work out. But I'm still wondering which vanilla is in BB and if I could find it in another sent as well to layer. -

vanilla323 replied to Absinthe's topic in Recommendations
Is Goblin sweet at all? Or is it all Patchoulli? And Tomstone scares me because of the balsam and cedar but does the vanilla overpower those? Wonder what vanilla scent would be the same/closest as the one in Banshee Beat to layer with? -
BPAL Patchouli - there's nothing else like it
vanilla323 replied to Ishtar's topic in Recommendations
Ok...I too am in love with Banshee Beat. Been doing research all night looking for a GC scent that is most like it. What I love is the sweet vanilla with the light patchoulli and hemp in the background. Which of all the recs you guys gave is most like that? I hated the patchoulli in #occupywallstreet it was tooo strong. Please advise! Thanks -

I need to know what GCs smell like Banshee Beat! I spilled my bottle today (first devastating spill ever). I'm hoping a sweet forumite will sell me there back up. But if that does not happen I need to know what else may work. I LOVE the black vanilla note in it the most. And the patchoulli in it is the ONLY patchoulli that worked for me so far. So please tell me what else is similar or the closest! -
The Vine Sniffed I smell something fruity and sweet. Wet on skin I smell delicious vanilla and light pear. The good sweet pear. The drydown the vanilla lets up and the pear is still lightly there. This is just so pretty. Love it! EDIT: Passed it on to my Mommy

Sniffing the bottle is strong chocolate and peanut butter. Reese's peanut butter cups. Wet on skin still all chocolate and peanut butter. Dry down is less peanut butter and light chocolate. Never really get much grenadine. I love this scent it's very unique, but bf says its too strong. UPDATE: Got another bottle on 4/24/15 and this one is everything I stated above but does have a little cherry (grenadine) on the dry down! Sadly sold this off because the staying power wasn't there anymore on me.

2009 version: Bottle sniff is very light not smelling too much at all. Wet on skin I can smell some beer and incense but it's a fun tolerable bit. But the dry down is all vanilla cake all the time. Medium throw but very mouth watering cake scented.

What BPAL would this fictional character wear?
vanilla323 replied to Flowermouth's topic in Recommendations
This is totally random but I was watchingthe movie The Fifth Element yesterday and wondered what BPAL scent would LeeLoo wear? Thats how much BPAL has affected my life lol. So what do you all think?? She is the perfect being and has that rocking orange hair (which i LOVE). Just thought it might be fun... -
I also have Splatter Comedy and that's all banana cream pie too! LOVE

I agree with Golletes and The Knave of Hearts they are both berry jelly like. And two favorites of mine.

Chocolate and Cocoa, in every combination possible
vanilla323 replied to mand's topic in Recommendations
I feel like I'm talking to myself a little...lol. I'm sure you all know the BOX OF CHOCOLATES came out on Valentine's Day hope there is something new and exciting in that for my chocolate obsession. Can't wait to hear reviews on those. I got the Milk Chocolate and the White Chocolate ones... -

I love the honey note the lab uses that's why I wondered about beeswax.
-
Ooh thanks that answers my question. I love the smell of beeswax candles so now I am intrigued. Thanks
-
Is it a strong sweet smell? I'm just wondering if as a foodie I would love it?
-
I'm curious about this "beeswax" note. Is it smokey? or sweet? Is it light or strong? Is there different types of beeswax? Please enlightment me with all your beeswax knowledge fellow beeswax lovers... I read through the thread but I want more, lol.

Jailbait In the bottle: Bubblegum!! Sweet Pink Bubblegum! Wet: Very strong bubblegum and now I smell grape and cherry lollipops. No musky womens perfume for me just sweet candy! The dry-down: Now its softer bubblegum but now its calmer not sure how to explain. I hope it lasts long but I feel like it will fade a bit fast. I do love it because its all sweet all the time! Final: 4/5

My chocolate obsession lately is The Malignant Dreams of Cthulhu in Love! I LOVE the smell of it! Is there any other scents like it? -
