First off, the reason I bought Eos was not only because I liked all of the notes in it, but the main reason, is my little puppy, Aurora (whom is like a child to me) was named for the Roman Goddess of the Dawn, and thus, the Greek Goddess of the Dawn, Eos, is another little nickname we have for her. We call her Eos at times jokingly.... So I felt like I should order this. All-in-all it captured the spirit of the Goddess, and of Aurora. It was fun, carefree, and full of wonderful memories.. Wet: Jasmine and Honeysuckle. 5 minutes : All three of the Jasmine, Honeysuckle, and Buttercup are now even, not fighting, all just blending together... I'm afraid the buttercup makes it smell a bit.... soapy. It's not the Jasmine Or the Honeysuckle either! I know the scents... and the scent of Buttercup, I don't think it's the combo. 10 minutes: The Honeysuckle is coming out a bit more than the others now... the Jasmine and Buttercup are even now. 30 minutes: They're even again 1 hour later: It's still light, airy, summery. 2 Hours later: The Jasmine and Honeysuckle are in the main light again, the buttercup is in the background, and stays that way.... It doesn't change from this point, but I love it! All-in-all it captured the spirit of the Goddess, and of Aurora. It was fun, carefree, and full of wonderful memories.. I felt like I was trekking through the hills with the Goddess Eos herself, she would smell like this scent I believe, Eos, or Aurora, whichever you choose to call her, would smell like this, this scent is beautiful, Beauty personafied, Eos personafied, and it's a happy, lighthearted scent.

Sometimes Baby wipes don't work for me, nor does soap and water... I'll have to try the salt method, I've heard if you cut onions or something else Odiferious, that, if you rub salt on your hands it gets rid of the scent. =) --Mystina

Okay, here's my review of Snake Oil.... it's gonna take me a minute to explain this LOL Mmkay, a day or two ago, I put some on my right Wrist.... Basically, it turned int osomething I'm not a fan of.... Vanilla and spices... Not sweet, just spicy vanilla.... Today I tried it on my left wrist.... IT TURNED INTO COTTON CANDY. O_O It's -really- nice, I like it a lot, so I'll just have to wear something else on my left wrist I guess... LOL. I hope that makes sense... In other words, make sure you try something on both wrists, because you might get a surprize. LOL.

I know most of you already know this but it looks like the reducers may be gone! I never got the chance to try them, I may have to buy one at some point, but hey, I'm gonna assume it's for the best for me, because BOTH of my LE's, Sugar Skull, and Snow White, which I just got within the past few days.... haven't had reducers. Just the little nubby things... Anyone have any good tips for putting it on w/ that but ways to not make a mess? Or to get JUST a drop of it on....? Thanks.

Okay guys, I have to tell y'all what scents I've gotten so far, and what I have on order! Recieved so far: Sugar Skull - Sweet, in a Maple-Syrupish way. Dragon's Milk - Cotton candy on me!! Aunt Caroline's Joy Mojo - Cotton Candy on me too! Yummy! Lolita - Cotton Candy too! Oh it's so yummy!!!! Glitter - Mmm, it's yummy, but not cotton candy... it's like a Lolli, very nice. Maenad - Sweet! Oh very sweet and yummy. Tamora - Peachy, Vanillaish, Sweet, very nice. Bordello - Mostly very sweet and berryish on me... But it was right after thattimeofthemonth so I dunno if it's accurate. Snake Oil - So far just nice vanilla... not cotton candy yet... Fae - Apricot and Vanilla to my nose! It's very pretty. Jailbait - Bubblegummy, kinda cotton candyish on me. ^^ Bon Vivant - Oh, Holy Jesus, it's SWEET! It's Strawberry like, very good and yummy... if you like Strawberry you'll like this I bet. Vanilla Single Note - Kinda cotton candylike on me, but it's so beautiful! So far that's all I have to add, I felt maybe it'd help -SOMEONE-. =) --Mystina PS: Hypothermya told me Ice Queen smelled like Cotton Candy and Florals to her, so I'm gonna try to get ahold of some of it... (Gonna try to trade Sugar Skull... or an imp of Snow White LOL.)

First sniff: Creamy, sweet, nice. On me: Mmm, Fruity... it's very sweet, seductive in a way, I could lick it!!! It smells like a lolli a bit, it's very yummy... A bit Cherry-Like.... Then it turns into Cotton Candy on me. I swear. It's so yummy, I about DIED. It's amazing. I really like this scent! It's making me feel like I could just drool all over it. Yum. It pretty much stays Cotton Candy on me, it's so good!

Ooh, Perversion is YUMMY, Coconut, Leather, Sweet, just yummy.... I feel naughty wearing this, I feel like I wanna jump someone bad wearing it. I mean, this scent makes me feel like a -naughty- little girl, who's in a bondage ball for the very first time, and loves it.... *grins*

I have a question... Soon I shall be getting my first order with Sugar Skull in it... I'm guessing this is thick... What's the best method to get it on my skin? A. Let it drip out of the reducer B. Use one of those tops with a wand on it. ? Thanks!

In the bottle: Lotus and maybe the Juniper... but mostly Lotus. Wet on my skin: Lotus, a tiny bit of mint, and even less Juniper... Within 5 minutes: The Juniper is GONE, I'm left with just a TINY bit of mint and mostly Lotus.... After 30 minutes: The mint is still there, still mostly Lotus though... After 1 Hour: Off and on the Mint will pop up, I think it and the Juniper are making the Lotus a tiny bit less sweet than other Lotus blend's I've tried.... I think it's balancing them out if that makes ANY sense... After 2 Hours: The mint is gone, I'm just left with a scent of what I can only describe as Dangerous Waters, and Lotus... It smells WONDERFUL! In the end: Undertow takes and grabs you, dragging you down into the deep and letting you experience something beautiful... It drags you down deeper, the Undertow pulling you down.... This scent is beautiful, sweet, but it has a tiny bit of danger lurking underneath! But to die by something this sweet? Ah it'd be a blessing... I hope that made sense, in other words, I LOVE this! --Mystina

This scent is beautiful! I put Kyoto on, and I feel as if I've been rolling around in Cherry Blossom's, in Old Kyoto... I can picture it, just from this scent.... It smells so beautiful, and so realistic, as if you're really there in Japan.... Just close your eyes and you are! I'm not completely sure what the other scents are, but in a way this is almost candy sweet, but not SICKLY sweet... It's just beautiful and makes you feel as if you've travelled far away, and somehow were lucky enough to come to Kyoto during Cherry Blossum time and got a chance to watch it unfold! All in all, this scent is beautiful =)

Check Fairywingmaker's sale page ^^ It has some! --Mystina PS: Is Love anything like Lush's Fever?

In the bottle: Kinda sweet, Citrusy... Wet on the skin: Lemony, the sweetness is there but not as strong.... Kinda like countrytime Lemonaide... 5 minutes later, Dry: Okay, this smells like fake Lemon, not REAL lemon.... It's the only thing I'm smelling right now! 10 minutes later: This is starting to turn into a Herbal Lemon. I don't know how to describe it otherwise... I don't get any almond, nor do I get anything else other than Lemon and a bit of herbs... 30 minutes later: Herbs, herbs, herbs, with a bit of lemon in the background.... 1 Hour: It's mostly Herbal. Can't even smell the Lemon in the background anymore... I just took and rubbed my Lush Fever Massage Bar over the place I put it, I really didn't like the scent that much so I figured maybe I'd see if I could do Herbal + Roses (since it's the predominant note in it...) And I can. lol. End result: Meh. I wish my chemestry had made this a bit sweet, but that's okay... I'm glad I got to try a discontinued, and I'm glad I didn't fall in love with it because it would have broken my heart to lose it! This really goes to show how chemestry effects scent... =)

First off, I wanted to say this thread was very helpful to me! I have to send a package to Canada (which, I'm not sure if it's in the area customs had problems...I came here to check...) but if this thread wouldn't have been here, I would have had no idea the problem cleared up! Thanks guys! --Mystina

Just an idea =) Maybe search around on the net, find out what notes Omar has in it... that could help you pinpoint one that would work for her! Or one that would be similar or that she'd like! --Mystina

First off a few I need help pronouncing! Maenad: I've been saying May-nad Is that right? ^^;; But how do you pronounce Chthulhu? LOL I had to ask!!! --Mystina

Okay, how about Lust? Here's one of the reviews...the first one LOL Hass anyone tried this on a man? I think it would work and I kinda wanna get it and force my SO to wear it at some point when I see him.... just to see if I try to jump him... LMAO Hey, who cares if I tumble him out in public.... okay wait my family is overprotective and wouldn't be far away so nevermind the plan to jump him... LMFAO. Any idea if it'll work like that?

I don't really know how to describe this... I came home from the hospital, and a procedure that went very well for me, and found a package from the LOVELY With Coffee Spoons with this and Pandora in them, and put it on first! This comforted me greatly, it was sweet, but not as sweet as Pandora or Black Lotus, it's floral, but soft... It comforted me because it reminded me of my Granny...she died when I was 14, I was very close to her.... She was my best friend and also ill like me and it took me a while to realize why it reminded me of her, because she did NOT smell like this... Then I realized, it reminded me of a toy she gave me from my childhood that smelled like this! I could swear it did! I don't remember what it was but I remember it's smell, so it comforted me a lot... I already got ONE gift on Monday, my procedure going wonderfully.... but this was a whole nother one, anything that reminds me of my Granny makes me smile and comforts me... it was like I was a little girl again.... It comforted me and to me, that's something very precious.... Thank you With Coffee Spoons, thank you so much sweetie. =) I really appriciate it... This smells beautiful and in a way romantic, it makes me feel sophisticated, in a way... my Granny didn't smell like this but I think she would have liked it... --Mystina

Okay, it looks like I'm going to have to find -some- way to get a decant of Rose Red, all of you gave such lovely descriptions of it! Wow. You guys are SUCH enablers! NAUGHTY! *dies* I normally don't like rose scents, but now you guys are making me want to try this sooo bad....

Hey guys, A friend of mine was wondering, does BPAL have a perfume that's a LOT like Karma Perfume? She likes it and the Karma line, but it's kinda pricey! So any help would be appriciated... If you can, describe anything that makes it more like Karma, or LESS like Karma, if that makes any sense.... Thanks!!! --Mystina

I think that you should go on and go for Rose Red, you could probably get Old London on the swaps board, but Rose Red is a LE, it'll be harder to get.... Plus you could trade it for something you like better later on.... =) --Mystina

Wow, that sounds yummy! I just made my Yule order, 1 Snow White and 6 imps.. lol. ^^ And I understand... my Mom is the same way... she's WAY too good to me, and does so much for me... And the rest of our family. She takes care of me so well, no matter how horrid she feels with me being ill she takes care of me and stays strong.... Are you an only child? Plus, I'm sure your Mom knows you'll pay her back. Mom's almost always help out when their babies are in a bind! Sorry if that made little sense, I'm out of it at the moment. ^^;; --Mystina

I'm glad your Mom let you order it on her CC! That was nice of her! *hugs you* I know how bad it sucks when you have no money. X.X;; I'm glad it all worked out. Did you order any other LE's before now? Just curious! And I'm glad you got to pay CtrlFreak back.

Skallywag: Aquatic like as in Lotus? lol. Just checking... ^^ Hypothermya: Thank you SO much, that really was helpful! And now, I must buy Eos, because my little Aurora's other nickname around our house is THAT, since it's the other Goddess of the Dawn's other name.... (Which, we sometimes jokingly call her "Eos!" lol.) Thank you I had -no- clue they had one coming up with her name. All of this is really helpful, thanks you guys, anymore advice would be very much welcomed!

Believe me, I would if I could, but I'm flat broke. I literally don't have more than $2 and I already owe money to CtrlFreak for the advance she so generously lent me, so it's just not a possibility. Why must the world be so unfair? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I'm sorry! That sucks so badly! *big hugs* well, after you've paid her back, make a "Good Job!" order. Once you have money to do it of course, just double it, since you'll be making up intrest for the time period that you DIDN'T get to order... lol. I was just getting change together to roll up so I could buy more BPAL. ;; LMAO. Good luck! --Mystina

Wow, congradulations! That's really really great sweetie! You should give yourself a pat on the back for getting such a high grade!!! .... Or give yourself another BPAL order, as a 'Good job!' type thing... LOL. Sorry I couldn't help that sweetie!! You do deserve it though because that is a REALLY high grade, you obviously studied very hard to get it! So you really should pamper yourself somehow for doing so great! (For a job well done!) --Mystina
