    mmmmmmmmmm I'm liking this one a lot. PATCHOULI!!

    I got this as a frimp and I'm glad I did! I just might have to get me a bottle!

    I get the Nag Champa and Patchouli the most, with a hint of something sweet and fruity.

    Smells pretty much exactly the same on me as it does in the bottle!!!

    It's all thanks to Jayzoe for sending a frimp of this. I might have never discovered this one otherwise!!!!


  2. I love the grassy scents!

    This one is the perfect summer's day scent.

    Lazing in the tall grass, staring up at the clouds while the warm breeze gently blows over your face.

    I think I smell the daisies in this too. Thankfully the rose doesn't come through for me at all as I'm not fond of rose scents in general.

    On the drydown, I'm left smelling mostly of grass and I LOVE IT!!!


  3. I completely expected to be hit in the face with the scent of asphalt with this one.

    Nothing of the sort.....thankfully!

    It's cold, almost icy, maybe a tad bit minty, but slightly floral as well. I think I get a bit of an aquatic note to it as well.....ice!!

    It reminds me of a perfume I have smelled before..... something I have owned in the past and I can't quite put my finger on it.

    This one pretty much stays the same on me as it is in the bottle. :P

    I'm glad I took the chance and purchased a partial bottle from a fellow forumite!!


  4. I'm not usually one for the floral notes. Most of them amp on me to the degree of a massive headache.

    But BAT...... :P This is the first floral that I haven't had to hide far far away from my nose.

    It's soft, musky, almost powdery and not sharp.

    It's well after midnight and the bats are out for their nightly feeding excursion.

    A curious youngster sees the brightly coloured flowers in the rainforest and swoops in to investigate.

    Getting a little too close, he is covered in pollen by the time he returns to his roost.

    He smells of light powdered flowers and nightly air.

     

    Even if this one had not worked on me, or if I hadn't liked the scent at all, it's still a keeper. It's a BAT!!!!!! ^^^0^^^ :D


  5. I'm all for the pine scents. It's one of my favourite notes.

    I surely wasn't disappointed in my imp from the Lab of Black Forest.

    Pine pine and more pine, but with a hint of something sweet almost fruity hidden behind it.

    On my skin the pine fades and calms down a bit. Almost a pine musk if you will.

    I really like this one and it's a definite future bottle order! :P


  6. Oohhhhhhh I'm so glad I ordered a bottle of this!

    I am in LOVE!! :P

     

    I dove into my bpal order upon arrival and Bloody Mary was the first to be freed from the bubble wrap prison.

    I opened up the bottle, took a deeeeeeeeeeeep sniff.

    OOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHH..... just like candy! Very cherry...but very vanilla too.

     

    Dabbed a bit on........*sniff* mmmmmm thick juicy sweet cherries.

    5 minutes later...... The cherries have subsided a bit and now it's a lucious vanilla-y sugar scent with a touch of cherry.

    :D

    Oh Bloody Mary how I love thee!!!!!!! :D


  7. I had such high hopes for this one.

    Unfortunately, all I get are dry woods and something very spicy ontop of that...and not in a good way.

    Even opening the bottle and sniffing it...my nose wanted to run away.

    But I braved it, dabbed a little on my skin in hopes the sweet notes would come through.

    No such luck.

    Sorry Ventriloquist's Dummy....you're movin' out. :P


  8. Ok, I spotted a bottle on ebay with a cheap BIN and snapped this up BEFORE reading the reviews here.

    I was REALLY nervous about it after reading and knowing a full bottle of it was on its way!

     

    BUT....looks like I'm in the minority crowd here on this one.

    I like it....maybe not LOVE...but really do like it. I get GRAPES all the way.....in the bottle..on me. :D

    It's nothing like what I had expected from the description...and THANK GAWD it's not cat piss on me like it turned out to be on some of you here. That was what was scaring me the most!!!!

     

    Big fat, juicy purple grapes......that's what I get! :P


  9. Why I didn't get myself a bottle of this sooner I'll never know!

    I wasn't sure what to expect upon opening my bottle. I must admit, it was the name that got my attention most and I just HAD to try it.

    And WOW am I glad I did!

    Very piney upon sniffing.....something woodsy in there too, like a pine forest.

    As it dries down, it sweetens just a bit but not too much. Earthy.

    Reminds me of a greenhouse, all the different greens and the smell of soil.

    This one is definitely right up there along side my absolute favourite Snow Bunny!!!!!!


  10. I love the aquatic notes and Hurricane is no exception to that.

    I simply LOVE this scent! Reminds me a lot of Demeter's Thunderstorm, only there are more notes there.

    There's a crisp sting to this scent that makes me just want to breathe it in deeper, just like on a hot summer day when the clouds go dark. There's that sting of electricity in the air, a freshness that only comes with an impending storm.

    This is a definite bottle order!!!!!


  11. Wow.....I love this one. Mango mango mango!

    The mango amps on my skin, but not to the point of giving me a headache. So sweet with a slight hint of patchouli. MMMMMMMMMmmmmm

    Only problem was, in 15 minutes it was hardly detectable on my skin. :P

    Looks like I'll have to get me a scent locket and try that because I do love Tweedledum!


  12. Unfortunately this one does NOT work on me. I don't know what it is because most of the notes in it work on me and I like!

    But even sniffing it, all I got was PAINT THINNER! O_O

    On me....PAINT THINNER!!!!!!!

    I was really looking forward to trying this one. Oh well, guess they can't ALL work on me eh? :P


  13. This one reminds me a lot of Snow Bunny, which is one of my absolute favourite scents.

    Except Talvikuu isn't quite as sweet. More pine in this one I believe.

    Reminds me of a cool day in a pine forest, just between winter and spring.

    It's a stronger scent that lasts hours on my skin and I'm glad I was able to get a bottle of this from the forum here! :P


  14. Just the name itself is what intrigued me to try this one out. I KNEW I'd love it from its description.

    I opened the bottle and sniffed in the crimson goodness......ahhhhhhhh thick juicy cherries and a smack of clove......EXACTLY how I hoped it would smell.

     

    On me...the clove is strongest with a hint of the cherry.. I'm likin' this one!

    Glad I went straight for a bottle instead of testing an imp first!


  15. Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh my sweet cucumber!

    Oh how I longed for this scent!

    My heart nearly lept from my chest when it was announced as part of the bpal line up!!

     

    I can't stop sniffing this one, in the bottle or on me.

    Refreshing.....wet grassy cucumber scent.

    Definitely a perfect summer scent!!!!!!! :P


  16. Okay, I bought this scent mainly because of the CUCUMBER in it.

    I was hoping for it to be one of the prominent notes in this scent. But I get no sign of it.

    Infact, when I opened the bottle up and sniffed it, I would have sworn there was coconut in it. Is my nose broken? LOL

    Anyhow, I dabbed a bit on my skin. Sniffed.

    Coconut.

    Waited 10 minutes, sniffed again.....

    Coconut. :P

    BUT as much as I usually hate the smell of coconut, this isn't the usual pungent sweetness of it....it's light and I really do like it!

    It's NOTHING like I expected it to be, but honestly, I'm really pleased with this one!!


  17. Some kind hearted person (sorry I can't remember who) had sent me a sniffie with a wee bit of Punkie Night left to test when I made a purchase from them.

    I fell in love. Had to have a bottle!

    Mmmmmmmmmmm all those apples and cranberries I believe. Is there a wee hint of vanilla in there too?

    This one doesn't morph much at all on me. Smells just like it does in the bottle!

    Wore this to a friend's house and she wouldn't stop sniffing me. HAHAHAHHA

    This one is definitly in my top five faves!!


  18. Okay, I know you're gonna laugh..but this one ON ME reminds me of Lemon Meringue, the character from Strawberry Shortcake.

    Remember those little PVC figures that were scented? Well that is it. hehehehehe

    It's very sweet and it's in my top 10 faves I'd say!


  19. The scent of misty forests, damp alder leaf, and the gentlest touch of white rose.


    VERY NICE!
    I opened up the imp and all I could smell was sweet pine. MMMmmmmmmmm for the pine!
    It pretty much stayed the same on me as it smells in the imp. YAY!
    Another scent that made me have to order a bottle from the Lab!!

  20. I'm loving the Hemlock!

    I'm all for the piney scents so this one was great.

    First it's strong in the pine department, then it dries down and becomes sweeter on me. Almost like someone candy coated a pine branch! Is it berries of some sort? Not sure. But I do know that I loved my imp of it enough to place a Lab order for a full bottle!!


  21. Okay, and I thought I loved Zombi.......but I love NOSFERATU EVEN MORE.

     

    I opened my imp of this and sniffed....dirt.......a bit of floral in there as well, but the dirt was prominent. Oohhh I love that smell!

     

    Dabbed a bit on my wrist...........MORE DIRT........mmmmmmmm.

    After about 10 minutes, the dirt fades a bit, but it's still there. The floral scent, not quite sure what flower exactly, comes up more and mixes with the dirt. VERY NICE.

     

    I believe I'm going to have to add this one to my list of favourites!!!!! :P


  22. Snow Bunny has fast become one of my all time favourite scents thus far.

    There's something about that sweetness mixed with the pine scent that makes it a fun and not overpowering scent to wear.

    The pine scent seems to fade a bit after wearing for 20 mins or so and becomes a cotton candy-ish sort on me.

    I just can't get enough of this one!!
