    Queen of Clubs

    Oh, my... think deep red. That is the color of this Queen. In the bottle: Boozy myrrh and a whiff of pomegranate? Hmm, I'm not sure about this one, it seems too boozy for me... but I'll give it a go. Wet on the skin: Earthy is the only way to describe this stage. A slight touch of soil mingles with the myrrh, amber, and various red scents. Dry: A glorious, deep rose emerges. I've never been big on roses, but this one is gorgeous. 10 minutes: Lush, deep rose. Very red and fruity. I'm starting to smell the red currant more clearly, and the vanilla is peeking through. 30 minutes: The vanilla is coming out more and more. I'm so happy I got two bottles that I could cry. It's reminding me off the rose flavored rahat loukoum treats, although it doesn't smell exactly like them. Vanilla-myrrh-rose goodness, I love you.

    Follow Me Boy

    This is jasmine, and a heady bubblegum-suntan one at that. Very strong, one little dab is enough. I can't say if I'd like it or not, had I not had an emotional bond to this scent. It smells exactly like my very first perfume, the one my aunt gave me as a parting gift when I was moving out of the country. I was about 10 years old. I slathered myself with it for days, until the little bottle was almost about to run out. Then I hoarded, and kept it for many years. Eventually I misplaced it, and was very sad about it because the name had rubbed off the label years ago. How did Beth do it? Or was my perfume also built on the old recipe the description is talking about? Many thanks to Beth and the kind Labbie who gifted me with this imp! I'll cherish this oil for the memories it brings back.

    Chaos Theory II : The Butterfly Effect

    LXVII - 67 In the bottle: Something mellow green, kind of gender neutral. Maybe the slightest whiff of pale pepper, nothing that bites the nose though. Wet on the skin: A little fruitiness added to the above. A bit more rounded off, it's like it's becoming "complete" now. Dry: I can see now that the fruit is plum. It's not nearly as pronounced as in Bordello, but it's dominating. If I could give this blend a color it'd something between purple and pink. 10 minutes: The gender neutral vibe is long gone, this blend has simply blossomed and become a gorgeous plum with a hint of deep rose. It's also not as weakly scented as it seemed right from the bottle. It's undergone quite a transformation. 30 minutes: The rose has come out more, and is level with the plum now. It's a deep, juicy, fruity rose... I'm not too expirienced with rose so I can't compare it to another BPAL rose blend, but I can tell you what it's not. It's not a high-pitched, soapy rose. It's not the kind from Rose Cross, Moon Rose, or Maiden. It's deeper and more lush than that. CXXXVII - 137 Lightly green and herbal in the bottle. Dries down to a vanillic scent with a soft herbal touch. I would swap this one for a CT2 that's similar to Snake Oil or POTL.

    Grape!

    I would really like to find something that smells like Welch's grape juice. Any suggestions, bpal or otherwise? ETA: Yes, I technically could just dab Welch's on. But I'm not really sure purple skin is my thing.

    Ooooohh, they match the new shirt! Thanks so much for the pic, andrabell!
  10. If you like Egg Nog you'll probably like Golden Priapus too (about 15 minutes after application, when the pine has faded). It has the same vanilla as the Eggynog.

    CCNow Questions & Problems

    I just placed an order through CCNow, it's my first one placed this way. Will I get billed right away? Nothing's showing up yet. I would actually prefer to be billed immediately because I want to be sure the money will be available.

    CCNow or PayPal

    The Lab doesn't get charged anything for money orders, right? I've paid with a MO more often than with PayPal, and I'm ok with it... I just wish there was a confirmation from the Lab that my payment was received. I worry for 6 weeks wondering if the envelope got lost in the mail.
