    Debauchery

    In Bottle: I liked this very much smelling it in the bottle, there's a very full almost ripe amber? scent with a pleasant muskiness, not offensive in any way (i had tested several florals previous to that and they all made me kind of ill) I've never smelled straight Egyptian Musk so wasn't able to pick it out, though I was particularly interested in this blend for that exact scent. Wet on skin: So far so good, very pleasant musk scent. I definitely smell the opium, before my first BPAL order I wore Tunisian opium or sandalwood with lily of the vally fairly consistently. Dry on skin: At first I wasn't sure if I liked it or not (i mean, i like it, but don't know if i want to keep wearing it), it's a tad strong. I love woody and resiny scents, though the first time I tried this on it smelled extremely soapy and way to dry and powdery. (i also had a cold, so decided to try it again.) After it cools down a bit it smells really nice....but it feels like it's missing something...it's a tad too dry. I might try dabbing something sweet and heavy on top like a white fleshy flower scent. I also found (i had read someone else's review mentioning this) that after washing off my wrist it smelled a little bit less sharp, which is nicer. Later: still smells fairly consistent as it fades. Overall, I like this one a lot, though I would wear it more as a companion to something else rather than by itself. I would be very curious to smell this on a certain boy, I think.
