    Dragon's Milk

    Dragon's Milk is the love of my life. My holy grail. My reason for being. I hoard Dragon's Milk like dragons hoard gold. Its intoxicating, sexy, deep aroma ruined me for all other perfume; It truly set the standard for me. When I buy a new scent, the phrase uttered is typically "Mm, I like this, but it doesn't make me swoon like Dragon's Milk does." One day I will get my hands on a proper bottle of Dragon's Milk HG. On that day I will die happily, with my bottles of Dragons Milk buried with me like a pharaoh and his treasures. I hope everyone is able to feel about a perfume the way I feel about this one. Get yourself a love like mine <3

    The Unquiet Grave

    One kiss of clay-cold lips: frozen white roses, frankincense, white gardenia, white sandalwood, and vanilla orchid. This scent is one that totally changed my mind on rose perfumes. It has an elegant, beautiful classiness that is simply timeless. I was a bit hesitant to receive this in a swap for fear of smelling like an "old lady" but this doesn't have that vibe at all! Very nice for a sweet date night or want to cool down with a colder, relaxing scent.

    Sign of Sekkusu Hair Gloss

    I wish I was getting what you all are >.< It seems to be purely animalic to me and I know it's my lesser trained nose, but all I can smell is something akin to cat urine. And, to me, if that's what I smell, that will be what people around me smell, and I'd really rather not be the person in the room who smells of kitty piddles. <//3 ETA: I don't know WHAT happened, but I'm in love. It's dark, sweet, and sexy. I'm so glad it never moved when I tried swapping it!

    Bon Vivant

    At first sniff in the imp, I was both immediately in love, and apprehensive. Once on my skin I got what I called "Soapy Margaritas" which I liked. Then someone described the scent as an exact duplicate of 7UP citrus soda. That's when I realized why I was apprehensive. So my brain is doing a funny back and forth between Soapy Margarita and 7UP. I like it, it's fun and bubbly in a sudsy/soda kinda way c;

    Black Pomegranate

    I dont know if it's just me and my skin but it smelled lovely in the vial and once applied it just smelled like a cheap fruity candle. I was very disappointed. Maybe it will work for me as a layering scent?:'c

    How do you apply your BPAL oils?

    Thanks for the recc! And to make double extra sure - their rollers work with BPAL bottles? I have zero desire to decant into new bottles. The ones that LuneNoir recommended above that definitely fit the 5ml bottles look like they're back in stock; https://www.gotoilsupplies.com/stainless-steel-metal-roll-on-inserts-caps-for-5ml-to-100ml-boston-round-bottles/ I just bought a bunch so heres hoping that they work right lmao Ty for the link!! It was most helpful

    Goblin

    As someone who heavily identifies with goblins, I was pretty disappointed with the impression this scent had on me. I was so excited to try it on and then all I could smell was Carmex lip balm. It has been explained to me that it may be the benzoin componenet, I am unsure. I wish I could like it. ;c
