Bestest ever but hard to find: Streets of Detroit is hands down my favorite myrrh dominant creation Some myrrh heavy GC blends that I like include: Anubis, Czernobog, La Petite Mort!, Priala the Human Phoenix, Sed non Satiata, Wings of Azrael To be fair, I amp myrrh, but these are the blends that I can clearly detect the myrrh and it's listed as one of the major components Honorable mention to Medea, Bastet, and Hecate also but they aren't as myrrh dominant as the previous listed ones HTH Ooh I'll have to try to get an imp of Anubis and Czernobog and I think I just got one for Sed non Satiata that I haven't tried! Thanks!

I really wanted this scent to work, I mean really wanted it to. I adore red musk and patch, black currant and plum are favorite notes of mine. So I've been testing and retesting my imp since I got it (so 1.5 years or a bit more) and every note in there agrees with me that I know of but something goes slightly medicinal which throws the scent off. So unfortunately, I'm at the dregs on my imp and I won't be buying a bottle. Just so sad. -
Oooh Frankincense is usually on the high and screechy side for me, but if Myrrh is dominant I might go ahead and give it a try! Thanks!! Unfortunately I can't do rose (it either dominates or goes pure soap on me) though.

Can anyone recommend a blend that has Myrrh as a dominant component?
-
Well I've tried this a few times and it's pretty much a single note Lilac on my skin. Ok, but not impressive enough for me to buy a bottle of.
-
I have the exact same experience as LizzieLuck did, I got labdanum and myrrh and nothing else. I think this will age to be a nice subtle scent but I kinda feel like it's more of something to layer with something else rather than being by itself.

If your top 5 scents are... Then try these!

For Dorian have you tested out the current LE from the Post The Serpentine? Also Lilith Hairgloss, if you go that route. Not to mention A Stroll through the Quarter (from BPTP) Incense smoke drifting out from the basilica mingling with oleander, just-flamed bananas foster, and a splash of Dorian. -

For Banshee Beat have you tried Yucca Giant Skipper? I've read that they have a similar vibe. -
I asked Puddin about it about a month ago and currently they are out of a component and are not sure whether or not they'll be getting it again. So right now it's permanently out of stock unless they can can obtain more of that component. Thank you! But really not the answer I was hoping for. Well I'll just hope the component will be available again. Welcome! Yeah, it wasn't the answer I was hoping for either. I am crossing my fingers that they get more of that component in so it can be made still. That said, you can always do a ISO, I did and got a number of responses for the Hair Gloss and Bath Oil.

Limited editions equivalents in the general catalog?

I'm down to a quarter of a bottle of my Luna Negra 2013 (A shrouded embrace: blackcurrant and amber with cassis, lavender, and deep purple mogra.). Anyone have a rec for a scent to replace it? -
I think it's balanced between the notes. Although with my skin chemistry I can end up with a sweet benzoin coconut and a hint of patch. (That said I like most BPAL patchoulis, so long as it's not the dominating note) Awesome! I'm definitely going to try it. Thanks! It's the one that I put off trying for 2 years (exploring BPAL) and then finally got a imp to try and realized I was incredibly stupid for not trying it sooner. Hands down it's my DH's favorite scent on me because he thinks it's dead sexy.

For a GC how about Goblin? That's got Black coconut, gnarly patchouli, and sweet benzoin. And it's a very sweet dark coconut blend on me.

Mme Moriarty would be my first thought.
