BPAL Madness!

Recommended Posts

I can help with this one, I'm into the same thing! Atlas (Mallow, oak bark, coffee bean, hinoki wood, and khus) is my favorite BPAL and pretty much exactly this. It's a foresty incense with creamy, sweet mallow. Then there are these lovely blends:

 

Doc Constantine - Sheer musk, cedar smoke, fir needle, black amber and leather.

Antique - Fossilized amber, juniper berry, wild musk, oudh, vetiver, white cedar, black currant, oakmoss, and leather.

The Illustrated Woman - Skin musk, smoky vanilla, pine pitch, patchouli, Indian resins, golden honey, and tobacco.

Black Forest - Thick, viscous pine with ambergris, black musk, juniper and cypress.

This Is Your Wilderness - Honeyed patchouli with cypress, black pine, and tobacco absolute.

Intrigue - Black palm, with cocoa, fig and shadowy wooded notes.

 

Is "golden prisons" supposed to be Golden Priapus (vanilla and amber with juniper, rosewood and white pine)? Was wondering since it doesn't have honey and I find it to be quite sweet and nice. Bummer if it didn't work for you. Anyway, also seconding Tombstone, yummy vanilla woods...

fury, are you open to woods in various seasons?

 

a world where there are octobers has woods with leaves and a jolt of maple-sweetness. very nice and comforting

some did not find it doesn't matter which way you go to be comforting, but on my skin it's a lovely and soft blend of woods and musks (the wood aspect is more warm cut wood in a carpenter's workshop vs trees in a forest)

and yes to black forest. ship of hel is in the same family as black forest but a little more complex to my nose.

 

of all of these, world where there are octobers is prob closest to the other scents in terms of wood+delicious. (I adore wulric too! :werewolf: )

I need help! I want more scents like Shiny Furball and Wultic, basically comforting forest scents. I want pine, birch, balsam tempered with vanilla, cocoa coconut, things of this nature. Golden Priapus should fit the bill but the honey isn't really sweetly cozy to my nose. Help!

I second This is Your Wilderness, it reminded me very much of WILF or Shiny Furball.

Have you tried Tombeur? I don't know if it has woods, but it is very cuddly. No honey as far as I know.

The Red Queen is the only real "wood" thing I love, but it has red fruit in it, so you would have to like that. The wood is very specific though, and good.
