    The Little Wooden Doll

    A very woody scent. After a little, it seems to turn a bit dusty as well. I could definitely see an old wooden doll smelling like this. If you are afraid of rose, you should not be afraid to try this scent. I get no rose from it at all as far as I can smell.

    Fae

    A sweet peach! Wow! Very sweet. All I can smell is peach and heliotrope. A lovely scent! After a bit it starts to smell like sweet cereal on me. One of those berry cereals I used to have when I was little.

    Bewitched

    A forest berry scent. Berries, musk, and a small greenness. This scent doesn't stick around too much on me and fades really quickly. It's really comforting while it lasts though!

    Lust

    There is something in this blend that does not agree with me. It's kinda.... dirty? Must be the patchouli. This scent is just dirty musk on me. Huh, doesn't change too much as time goes on. Definitely does not agree with me.

    Croquet

    On the skin: Tart grapefruit/lime annnnnnd rose? Hmmmm, this smells better on me than it does in the vial! After a bit, the tartness backs off and now it smells like a lovely, sweet rose! It is a bit more than just rose there. I think there might be a bit of the musk as well since it isn't just rose. It is so sweet and pleasant! Not quite for me, but very pretty.

    Changing the Shadows

    Hmmmmm, sour florals/tea? Eep. The sour smell is still there, but I am starting to also smell some orange as well. Weird scent that definitely does not work well on me... Ick.

    The Waltz of the Snowflakes

    Hmmm, this one smells kind of strange to me. A weird almost feet pine smell. That's the only way I can think of to describe it. The feet smell goes away after a bit and now I can smell the vanilla. A nice vanilla pine scent. Definitely a pine as opposed to mint. Pretty good! I don't think this one would be used much at my place, so it is going to hopefully go to a better home.

    Mother Ginger

    On the skin: Ginger ale? Yep, it definitely smells like some ginger soda! Doesn't change much over time for me. Quite a gingery scent. I don't really smell any of the other notes and it is definitely a different type of ginger scent than Gingerbread Poppet.

    Klara

    On the skin: Honey, mandarin, and spicy carnation. Lovely! After a bit this scent becomes a bit powdery on me. Hmmm, sadly I don't think this one is for me. Definitely similar to Sibyl and Alice.

    Sugar Plum Fairy

    On the skin: Oooh! A sugary, fruity scent! Reminds me of a fruity bubblegum! Doesn't seem to change too much from application to dry down. Definitely a candy scent. A bit to sugary for me, but anyone who likes sugary scents will love this one!

    Moon of Horses

    In the bottle: Grape and hay? Interesting! On the skin: Green hay and.... a few flowers? Huh. Not what I was expecting. My skin completely gobbled up the grape! This is such an outdoorsy scent! Makes me feel like I am in a field!

    French Lavender

    In the bottle: This smells exactly like a fresh sprig of lavender to me! Lavender with a bit of greenness. Not too sharp like most lavenders seem to me though. Yay! On the skin: Pure herby lavender. Reminds me of this French Festival I attended where there was a lady selling bundles of lavender! Smells to me like TKO without the vanilla!

    Amaterasu v2

    Creamy florals.... Could be some sandalwood in there, but I am not entirely sure what sandalwood smells like. This is quite a creamy/sunny scent with floral. Makes me think of being in a flower garden in the sun. Oh, that must be sandalwood! This blend starts to smell a little woodsy. Very slight, but it fits in perfectly with the creamy florals. Definitely not the kind of florals that cause headaches, but it is threatening to turn a little soapy on me. Oooh, it's changing a bit more! Now I am seeing what others mean by creamy vanilla musk with sandalwood! Hmmm, I am not sure if this one is for me, but it is definitely an interesting blend! -eta- Oh! This reminds me of a floralish version of Saqqara v2!!

    Half Elf v5

    On the skin: Definitely getting a bit of honey/beeswax, but this is very good compared to other versions of BPAL's honey! Normally it turns really off/funky on my skin, but this one is actually really pleasant. A nice beeswax (not too sweet) with a few florals. Slightly reminds me of a less honeyed version of O with a little more floral added. The beeswax really helps to smooth out the florals into a pleasant scent that doesn't hurt my nose in the slightest. I would say this is actually the honey version of Elf v4 (vanilla floral). Huh, finally a beeswax scent that doesn't turn weird on my skin! I think this might be a keeper!

    RPG Combos

    I just got my first RPG bottle (Rogue) the other day! Mmmmmm, leather! Well, I don't have any of the other RPG scents, so I decided to layer it with a GC scent today and the first one I thought would be nice was Sin. OMG! They go together AMAZINGLY! Hee hee! Sinful Rogue! It actually reminded me almost exactly of Loviatar, only better! Sweet, musky, with a hint of the leather that makes Bow and Crown of Conquest amazing!

    Rogue

    Yummy leather! A bit of something green. Reminds me, in a way, of Sacrifice only I think Rogue has less greenery. As it dries, the leather is further softened with something... slightly resiny? Overall, I think this one would make a great layering scent for something else that needs a small kick of leather! -ETA- In my opinion, the leather in this one is in the same class as the leather in Bow and Crown of Conquest!

    Thirteen (13): May 2011

    Ugh, after my Friday the 13th I definitely needed a bit of luck! From the bottle I can definitely smell cocoa. There is something more, though, but I'm not sure what it is I'm smelling. On the skin: The cocoa disappears instantly. I'm not sure what this is, but I think I am smelling the cubeb. It smells pretty sweet, but this is a strange sweet. Hmmm, this scent just gets stranger. It is still sweet, but there is something weird here. I think it's the honey going kind of weird on my skin...

    Benevolent Triple Conjunction

    Oooh! This one works great! I had such an awful day at work yesterday since it seemed like I couldn't do anything right. I developed a huge backlog of stuff to do, and left work feeling quite depressed. This morning I thought it would be a great time to try Triple Conjunction since it seemed like today would be a repeat of yesterday. Instead.... things worked out awesomely! I kept up with all the work and didn't make any major mistakes! Woot! I was in high spirits all day and things just seemed.... happy. As for the scent, I can't remember smelling anything except for rose and a bit of lemon. An interesting combo that really raised my spirits!

    Revenge

    Hmmm, smells a bit alcoholic/herbal to me. Definitely a bit of musk in there as well. VERY strong! Oooh! Now I can smell something that makes me think... floral moss? Beautiful! I would love it if my house smelled like this all the time! Such a lovely smell! Reminds me slightly of this plumeria perfume my mom used to wear when I was little.

    Villa Diodati

    Squeeee! Thanks BPTP goblins! Oooh! I can't wait to smell this! The name sounds Italian! I like this one! It smells very fresh without having any of that normal harsh chemical smell from store products like febreeze. Smells kinda woodsy/piney to me. Definitely could see this being a very nice mens cologne! I think man when I smell this, but it is definitely a suave/suit man!

    Berry Moon 2009

    At first: Tart berries and a honey note that isn't playing too nice.... Drydown: This is actually quite nice! Musky honey sweetness and a hint of berries. Much sweeter now than it started out. I definitely don't think this one is for me, but I do have to admit that the dry down is quite nice if you can get past the tart/green/funky honey stage!

    AF8

    Very similar to AF6 in my opinion. I think this blend may have peach as well, but it is not the first note I smell. Plum maybe? There is also an almost effervescent quality that reminds me of musk, but that could just be my strange nose. Definitely a sweet fruit musk.

    Cabaret.Goth

    I can't help myself from trying this one even though I just received the bottle today! Review might change after my bottle has had time to sit! Wet: Mmmmm! That is some yummy orange! Reminds me of PL176! This is orange and some creaminess whereas PL176 was orange and sugar (in my opinion!). Oh, my! This scent just gets better as it dries! The orange backs off a little bit and lets the creaminess shine! I am getting a bit of a Glowing Vulva vibe (with added orange of course!). Everything is blending together so perfectly! Thankfully the gardenia never takes over! Everything is just creamy and comforting! Thanks so much my amazing Bats Day Angel!

    Fetish.Goth

    I just got the bottle in the mail, but I couldn't wait to try!! This review might change after my bottle has sat for a day! At first this scent is sooo resiney/spicy! Wow! I think I am smelling mostly myrrh and frankincense, but this scent is lovely incensey sweetness! Drying: Hmmmm, not as good as my first impression. There is one note in here that is growing quite strong. In a way it reminds me of rose. Still smelling the sweet incense as well. Wow, it is changing yet again! The incense is fading a bit on me and now this scent reminds me of a spicy rose. Lovely! No floral notes listed that I can see, but this one really just makes me think spicy rose. Not getting any leather at the moment. Beautiful! Thanks my amazing pick up angel!

    Blue Pumpkin Floss v3

    Oooh! Spicy cinnamon and ...blueberry? Not what I was expecting. Smells like something I would definitely eat! It's drying a bit. Still cinnamon, but it has actually backed off a bit. Now I can smell a bit of pumpkin, but it is a bit faint. Still something I would eat! Later: Mmmmm, more pumpkin with some cinnamon still! No more blueberry as far as I can smell. Just pumpkin and cinnamon. Tasty! This scent is nice and yummy, but I am not sure if it is something I would wear often...
