    Peppermint Cream Cupcake

    This smelled like dirty mint and dry chocolate to me. I didn't get any cream cheese heavy mintness, wish I did. And the staying power was sad too. Sadly I sold this one off.

    I've never found a scent I liked!

    If you like foodie definitely try Dragon's Milk, it's amazing. Also give Bliss a try too. Those are awesome GC scents! 😋

    Salted Caramel Shortbread

    Dusted with cocoa and crushed nuts. Fresh from the mail today it started very salty like a Mother Shub scent but then the salt calmed way down and a yummy snickerdoodle dough type scent rose up and was so tasty! Loved the morphing on this scent.

    Spiced Autumn Cider

    I gave this one a try even though I know Apple doesn't like me skin and sadly it didn't work again. The Apple was a strong soapy scent on me mixed with light spice and booze. I don't know why Apple goes yucky on me it's unfortunate. This bottle did have the cutest label though. Ended up selling it.

    Pink Pumpkin Floss

    This label is so adorable! This starts as the classic spicy pumpkin scent in me it's so perfect for fall. Then the currant came out it's a tart juicy version. I love a good currant scent. The strawberry cream is there but it's the lightest note I think it balances everything nicely. This scent is a pumpkin gem on me!!
  6. This is the most delicious cake and honey scent! I get a lot of cake luckily! I love it!

    My Little Grotesque

    This scent is the perfect yellow cake cupcake with delicious frosting and it's all topped off with a little cardamon. When I smell the bottle I get cardamon. When I wear it the cupcake takes over a bit but that's ok! I love it! So yummy!

    Black Moths

    This went totally wrong on me. It was mainly a rotten rose soapy scent on me. I got no plum or currant. I didn't smell patchouli either. Just bad rose and soapy ick. Not much throw luckily. So sad. I love the movie so much so I wanted this to work but alas we do not get along. Good news though it's going to a new home with someone who loves it.

    Guatemalan Volcanic Coffee Bean

    This one totally smells like walking into a Starbucks! It's a perfect coffee single note! Love it! Decent throw and staying power too.

    Shill

    This was a delicious popcorn scent when sniffed from the bottle. Also just as yummy when I dabbed it on my skin but sadly when it dried it disappeared

    I want Popcorn!

    Wanted to bump this since I've discovered lots of other amazing popcorn smells from BPAL lately... Movie Night is my favorite! Movie theatre popcorn all the way! Also Spring Training 2008 is a caramel corn scent that I love! Mouse Circus was yummy too but had a weird wood dry down note that threw me off! Any other newer popcorn scents you all can think of that haven't been mentioned...

    I want Popcorn!

    Oddly enough I can't eat popcorn but I am loving buttery popcorn scents... What does BPAL have to offer...

    Green Tree Viper

    2016 version: This is amazing! I always wanted a bottle of the original but never got one so when this was released I snatched it right up! It starts out all delicious Snake Oil but not too powdery. I think the other notes in this keep it from being too powdery. The mint is clean and light. The green tea and bergamot are so good. They make it a little foodie and that makes me happy. It has amazing throw and staying power. The best part is I think it'll just get better with age too!! Yay! I love this Viper!

    Key Lime Pie

    Starts off with delicious tart lime and when it dries down all the yummy brown sugary crust comes out! Love this! The throw is a great mix of both and it's got pretty good staying power too! Now I want some real key lime pie...it's that realistic!

    Père Noël

    This one was tricky on me. I loved the anise note but the orange notes started to remind me of a cleaning product sadly. I also don't know if me and lavender get along either. But I'm glad I got to try it. Passed it on someone who loves it.

    Apples?? Finding the right apple scent

    The only apple that has worked for me is Beaver Moon 2012. It's the apple cheesecake one. It didn't turn soapy which is what most other Apple scents do on me.

    Romantic Scents

    I think Ivory Vulva and Love's Philosophy are very romantic and sensual. <3

    Gourmand - Foody Scents - General Recommendations

    I agree Stekk, Pere Noel, and Sugar Skull are all yummy!! I also have to mention Melty Creme Egg it's a delicious chocolate foodie scent!

    Melty Creme Egg

    I agree with a lot that was said above!! This is a perfect sweet daytime chocolate scent!! When you sniff it in the bottle it's a Cadbury Egg. That sweet candy chocolate and sugary cream. On the skin the chocolate is the throw and the sugary cream is close to the skin. I agree it's a much sweeter chocolate note then usually used. It's not dark or bitter. My favorite Easter candy my whole life has been Cadbury Creme Eggs so this is me in a bottle. Had to get it no matter what and so glad I did! Also love the pretty pastel colors on the bottle, so perfect.

    Stale Sugar-Crusted Marshmallow Chick

    This is simply a sweet light marshmallow single note. When I sniffed the bottle there was nothing. Wet on the skin it was a perfect sweet marshmallow. Nothing more or less. Then poof it disappears and fast!! Oh no! That's what I was afraid of. It has no throw really and is very soft on the skin while it's there. While it is yummy and Peep like I prefer Stekkjarstaur more. He actually has throw and better staying power on me. Marshmallow Chick is like Stekk's sweet quiet little sister. Oh and I love the colors on the label so Easter appropriate!

    Humbug

    This is simple and delicious! It's a gorgeous vanilla mixed with a perfect amount of anise. Amazing throw and staying power too! This is a major LOVE! The hubby doesn't like it though reminds him of black licorice, which he is not a fan of but I am lol

    Yule Buddies

    Yule Buds on me started out smoky tobacco and light leather. As it dried down a strange "fruit" note appeared but not sure what type of fruit. Maybe light orange jelly. The scent overall had a light presence but good staying power, got maybe 5 hours out of it. Also love the label. Very cute.

    Oranges, Satsumas, Tangerines & Mandarins

    Pere Noel is an amazing tangerine and orange scent! Love it!
