You should give Belle Epoque a try. I haven't sniffed it yet, but it has vanilla, sandalwood, and opium, and some reviews have said it has a bit of a vintage feel. Great, thanks! I'll give it a try. Read the description-- sounds perfect.

Oh, and I've been described as shy, friendly, delicate, feminine, funny, smart, flirtatious, witty, mysterious, and a "guy's girl" (which I took to mean someone you can joke around with, easy going, not overly obsessed with make-up or clothes). It's so odd trying to describe yourself... Thanks for humoring me!

Hi everyone, I'm new here. So excited to have discovered BPAL, but a little overwhelmed, as it all sounds so wonderful. Trying to find a "signature scent" and any recomendations would be most appreciated. Okay, a bit about me... I have a bachelors degree in film and comparative literature and am now getting my masters in acupuncture and chinese medicine. Love history and all things related to the past. Obsessed with Hitchcock, Luis Bunuel, Maya Deren, Chinese cinema, classic hollywood cinema, old hollywood in general. Obsessed with all things spiritual and metaphysical, especially fairies. Love all literature, some favorites include: Goethe, Arthur Conan Doyle, Jane Austen, Oscar Wilde, William Faulkner. Fascinated by voodoo and the blues. Love all things southern and southern gothic. Obsessed with all things Victorian (Alice in Wonderland, et al). Love bluegrass music (Gillian Welch, etc). Oh, and I also love belly dance and travel. Bleh. Sorry for the self indulgent randomness... Smells I particularly like: Almond, Honey, Vanilla, Rose, Opium, Milk/Soymilk, cardamon, Sandlewood. However, I am open to anything and everything. I love woody orientals in particular. Help! Thanks! Angelica
