    What scents are masculine? Gender-neutral?

    incantation comes to mind. i wouldn't really call it fresh or citrusy, but there's definitely the vetiver and lemon going on. voodoo might be another good one. again, not so much fresh/citrus, but the vetiver/lime/spice. hurricane definitely has the fresh with vetiver thign going on serpent's kiss is a great vetiver/spice scent

    Are bpal blends all-natural?

    Hemlock

    yet another oil that i'm completely different on. yup, in the bottle - clean, herbal, slightly lemony, fresh. on dry down, it's COMPLETELY different. maybe it's the lack of water in the air here, but it became all wonderfully smokey and incensey and slightly sweet, kind of how laudanum smells in the bottle (at least to me). the longer it's been on, the more it balances between smokey and sweet. now, about 12 hrs later, it's a slight burnt wood, the smell that your clothes get after a long time around the campfire.

    Where is this scent?

    *merged the threads about 'where is hemlock' and 'where is wolfsbane' and moved them to the faq* if you've been hearing about scents and you cannot find any infomation them online, there are two primarily possibilities: - it is a prototype. the lab usually doesn't mention the prototypes at the earlier stages of creation, and this is USUALLY the case when you get an extra imp with an order and can't find any information about it. the lab may not *ever* sell them, and may vastly change them before selling them. - it is a discontinued product or limited edition and no longer available. you may see mention of it in the reviews if this is the case. this would usually be the case if you've swapped for it.

    Where is this scent?

    hemlock -> bewitching brews ingenue -> love potions wolfsbane -> bewitching brews WOLFSBANE Notorious for its properties for protection against werewolves and curing lycanthropy, this nefarious plant also has a fine history of use as a virulent poison. Clasically, Medea employed it in her many works of vengeance. This concoction of ours has none of the lethal qualities, but still personifies all of the herb's dark history beautifully.

    EPIC BPAL Spreadsheet Thread

    updated => csv, xls as a warning, the xls does have a macro, but you can disable it. it does three things: replaces NULL with nothing, fixes the case for the name & area, and creates links from the number in hte review id. i don't remember if it has ingenue in it, but it does have hemlock + some of the up&comings + the rest of the lunacy series.

    Where is this scent?

    HEMLOCK This infamous herb has a long, complex history: it has been used in spells of death and destruction, was a principal component in traditional witches' flying ointments, and was the poison used to put the philosopher Socrates to death. We have created a dark, profound herbal blend to personify and honor this wicked little plant. and from what beth said here. they do plan on bringing back hemlock, ingenue, and wolfsbane.

    i love it, but hot damn, it didn't last more than a half hour.

    Hellfire

    this smells nothing like the old hellfire, but exactly how i thought it WOULD smell. if you don't like the smell of a fine cigar shop, brandy, or leather this is NOT the scent for you.

    Shattered

    in the bottle: i can taste the mint, the bubble gum lotus... beth captured it perfectly when she said "sharp as glass shards," because it smells like something that could easily cut off your tongue, if mishandled.

    search engine stuff

    it's currently not set up to let you do that. you can do musk AND amber, musk AND NOT berry, or amber AND NOT berry at this time. if it helps, only two or three of the musk AND amber results come with berry... but make sure you search as "musk amber" and have the and selected in the pull down menu. i've got something hacked out to let you mix them (+musk +amber -berry), but it's not very intuitive, so i haven't released it yet.

    Different smells/colors, same perfume

    merged with existing topic.
  18. you cannot start or reply to topics in here. if you have a question, email the lab staff. if it's something that comes up frequently, they will add it to the FAQ and/or announce it here. if it's a comment, feel free to post it in bpal chatter.
  19. samhain was their first limited edition, so the short answer is: all we can do is wait and see. but you should ask them if they have any left, i don't remember if g. poppet sold out.

    What do bottles and labels look like?

    the 1/8 oz clear bottle might be available by special order. and unless you're talking about the center blue one here, i have no clue what "gorgous gothic-looking bottle" yer talking about...

    Important info regarding shipping and emails

    i have a question, duck: if we'd been talking to nella about our orders, would it safe be to assume that you and beth know what's up with them?
