i don't know about you, but on me hanae mori (which is one of my favorite non-bpal scents btw, I'm glad to hear there are other fans out there) dries down to a lovely strawberry/vanilla foody scent. If this happens on you, and you LIKE that, you absolutely need to get some Pink Phoenix (although i think it was either discontinued or limited edition - you can still find it for sale/swap on the forums though) I've also tried layering hanae mori with pink phoenix, and that's wonderful as well.

not to derail (well maybe it's only a SLIGHT tangent ) but have you carnation lovers ordered Pink Moon yet? I just caved today and I can't WAIT!!!! PS My favorite carnation-ey bpal so far is Alice. It layers SO nicely with my beloved LUSH potion.

anyone know any GC scents similar to Annabel Lee and Pink Phoenix? Those two will both haunt my dreams when my bottles run out...

I want to eat my arm when I wear this scent On me, for some reason, this is VERY apricot...maybe it's the combination of the fig and orange. Anyway, it's everything I wished the March Hare would be but wasn't - edible fruity yumminess! LOL My only complaint is that it doesn't last long. However, I've found that it pairs WONDERFULLY with O, and then lasts most of the day. It also adds a nice 'creamy' dimension to the scent. I'm all over a bottle of this!

this is the imp that made me fall...HARD....for BPAL I LOVE ALICE. I don't really detect much of the carnation (which is too bad, as it's one of my favorites)...but I do get a lot of honey and a much lighter, softer floral drydown. It's positively gorgeous, and it lasts forever. I'm going to hoard this one.
