    Sugared incense

    I love sugared incense! I recommend Temple Viper and Midnight on the Midway. I would love to find a darker Temple Viper. Any suggestions?

    Scents similar to Makhanitis and Prospero

    Please keep the recommendations coming. I would like to find more dark plum and wine scents.

    Limited editions equivalents in the general catalog?

    I am in love with BPAL's plum note. Many of my fellow BPAL addicts suggested that I try to find a decant/imp of Queen of Spades. This seems to be almost impossible. I have also been told that Blood Countess is very similar to Queen of Spades... unfortunately Blood Countess is discontinued. Please tell me there is hope and that there is a current GC that is similar to Queen of Spades.

    Scents similar to Makhanitis and Prospero

    Those scents are two of my favorites. The one I found to be the closest to Makhanitis, if you like patchouli, is Urd, in the Excolo line of the GC: Muscadine, black and red patchouli, cereus and nag champa. Urd is more headshoppy than Makhanitis, but I find the wine note very similar. Also, if you don't mind some chocolate, another one I really like is Centzon Totochtin , also a GC in Excolo: The Four Hundred divine rabbits of the Aztec pantheon that preside over parties and drunkenness. Bittersweet Mexican cocoa with rum, red wine, and a scent redolent of sacrificial blood. And another good wine scent is the LE The Zadok Allen Vineyard, which was a Lupercalia scent, but decants show up for sale on the forums fairly often. A deep velvety Cabernet Sauvignon with hints of plum, black cherry, rose petals, coffee bean, and smoky oak. Barrel and bottle aged, with a smooth and spicy hit mid-palate. Hints of Dagon's tarry black incense and clotted blood complete this well-rounded, robust indulgence. You and I are definitely scent sisters! I love Urd and Centzon Totochtin. I have not had the chance to try The Zadok Allen Vineyard, but would love to give it a try. Thank you for your suggestions!
  5. I am in love with Makhanitis and Prospero. The plum and wine notes make me swoon. I must have more BPAL oils that are similar to Makhanitis and Prospero. Any suggestions? Thanks!

    When your favorite GC blends are discontinued

    I have been away too long and found out that Hymn to Proserpine has been discontinued. I am hoping that someone has a recommendation for a scent comparable to Hymn to Proserpine.

    When your favorite GC blends are discontinued

    I hope that there is a general catalog scent that is very similar to Blood Countess. I am almost out and I love this scent! Any suggestions?

    EPIC BPAL Spreadsheet Thread

    I hope that all is well with you Hackess. Is there an available copy of the updated spreadsheet?
  12. I can now answer my own question. It looks like Magic, Do As You Will is temporarily on backorder. Is there a thread on the forum that lists the current backorders?
  13. Anyone out there waiting on a CnS from around 04/05/11? I am just a little concerned.. I usually order using CCNow. I decided to submit my payment via PayPal for this order. I noticed that others have received a CnS for orders placed a week or more after mine.
  14. Thank you for your recommendations
  15. Thank you for your recommendation Can anyone recommend a BPAL scent that smells similar to Crispy Marshmallow Bars and/or Classic Fudge Cake?
