Okay, so I only put it on a minute ago, but I am loooovinnngggg thisss...! This smells like a very dry Mme. Moriarty in the bottle. On the skin, it's still dry and complex; I could imagine it smelling like heaven on a man. After a short time, the florals all come out in a burst. The orchid lends a welcome sweet touch to the dominant resin and patchouli. This is fabulous mysterious sexiness in a bottle. It reminds me very vaguely of Tarnished Love from MAC Cosmetics. Dark Delicacies is definitely to be worn for a hot date, no question.

Wow, those are both gorgeous!

Three white cakes, vanilla, and red and black currants. This is pretty! At first, it's quite distinctly cake. Dry, it reminds me a lot of Lampades, but less fruity and slighty more powdery and spicy.

I wouldn't say that Bordello and Persephone are similar, no. Bordello, to me, was very sweet and heady, almost like a syrup. IMO, Persephone is only similar in the way that it's sweet and girly too. You may like it though! ETA: Oh wait, so you meant Hymn to Proserpine, and not Persephone? Okay then.

Best wishes for both you and your sister.

Intrigue is a beautiful earthy scent.

Well, those aren't discontinued, they're LE. When I'm searching for reviews, I usually just select the entire Reviews forum instead of searching by the category that I think the scent might be in. Try it again in just general Reviews instead of Discontinued!

Welcome! What are the scents? ETA: In addition to searching on bpal.org, which can pull up results for reviews, you could also do an advanced search on the blackphoenixalchemylab.com site if you just want information about the scent itself: http://vanilla.spicybrains.org/index.php In advanced mode, select "all scents" for "scent availability" and "only check scent names" for type of search.

Yay, I'm commenting! Or at least I think I am. I hope I'm doing this right.

Formula 54, discontinued and super rare. For a realistic suggestion, try Blood.

Ohh, poor Formula 54.

Well, my first thoughts were Snake Oil and Perversion. They're both strong if you apply enough, and would kind of "blend" with the atmosphere...
