First Sniff: Foody, I can definitely smell the almond milk. The scent is now morphing but so far I cannot smell the snake oil or snow white or any of the other notes distinctly. In spite of that is is still a lovely scent. A little later I was able to smell Snow White but not Dorian. I like the scent but not sure I will be purchasing it.

First Sniff: Lavender and another flower I do not recognize.. It does not smell good to me. Faded quickly, can barely smell it now. Nothing special about it. Later it has morphed into something that I quite like but not sure I want a bottle of it. Will definately think about purchasing a bottle.

First sniff: Not sure how to describe. A bit green. On skin slightly sweet, and green with mild florals. The flowers are more prominent. I don't like any of the florals. This blend is not for me.

First SNiff: Really nice. I cannot pick out any particular not even though I am familiar with most of them. I love the combination so far. Just lovely! The scent is fading but still has the lovely scent I enjoyed in the beginning. So far it has not morphed any and I just love it!!

Whatever florals are in play here, they not smell good to me. or on me. AS it sits, the floral becomes more mild. Even so this blend is not for me.

First Whiff: Mild light floral. Pretty. Oh wow, a few minutes later it is quite a bit stronger with that bandaid note I get sometimes.. Thankfully it is calming down to a medium floral scent with a hint of band aid. Even without the bandaid note, this is too strong of a floral note for me personally. I'm not sure if the bandaid thing is my chemistry or one of the notes which morph into that scent on everybody. Or maybe is just my chemistry.

First whiff: Smells like a lemon cough drop. Yes Really! A few minutes later it changes into a wood polish scnet. How interesting. It again morphs into something slightly sweet and leaves a generally good feeling scent. It really does remind me of a clean bathroom without smelling like lemon cleaning products.

Sweet apple note, like a red apple with something in the background, like a sharp wood scent. The wood bark note is getting stronger and the sweet apple is retreating. Both the apple and the wood bark notes are making way for a mild lightly sweet scent which pretty much stays that way.

First whiff: very perfumey, strong a bit of sea that smells dark like being deep under the sea. Later it is still perfumey but the labdunum is coming out more. Not really a fan of that particular note. That note pretty much stays true. The scent of it to me is savory. I love water scents but this one is not for me.

Wet,it smells lovely of lime, ginger, and green tea as well as champaca. Wet on skin I'm getting coconut too! Yum!! I'm not getting the mint just yet that I can distinguish. The champaca flower is making a stronger appearance now which I don't prefer. This has now dissipated into nothing. Starts out pretty then strong floral, calm g down to something pretty and then nothing.

In the bottle smells of a nice unisex aquatic. Wet on skin it turns even more lovely. I think this might be my favorite Bpal aquatic so far. Later this becomes so soft and lovely. Definitely more feminine. I'm in LOVE!

Wet in bottle, kind of strong perfume with supporting green notes. Reading the notes I'm not sure which note is coming across so strong. Wet on skin it does not change and the offensive note that do not recognize remains through dry down.

SNOW WHITE 2012 I have most every year's version of Snow white and this one is definately different. It smells off compared to the other versions. It's ok, but not the Snow White I have grown to love. If it was sold under a different name that would be understandable, but I wish I knew why the change and what it was due to. I thought maybe it needed to age, but I have SW bottles arrive and smelled perfect as soon as I received them. If there was a component change I would sure like to know.

Wet on skin, a wee bit floral from the honeysuckle and orange blossom I presume. Florals are getting stronger. As it dries I am getting some pine and maybe a bit of ivy but the other notes are completely overshadowed by the florals.

First impression, herbal with carrots coming through. No icy musk so far, no mint and no camphor. this doesn't really smell like a perfume. I don't know how to describe it other than to say it is not for me.

Soft and lovely. I can smell the eucalyptus but it is delicate not overpowering. The white amber is the next strongest and oh how I love thee. The mint is light as a breath and the ozone diffuses the whole blend making it etheral. I think I'm in love! This blend makes me feel as if I am weightless, like floating on a cloud. I know sounds strange, but that is the impression I am getting. Like I have floated somewhere far away to a peaceful place. I think I need this blend based on relaxation purposes purely. When philosophy the brand came out with their perfume that was suppose to smell "soap and water clean" this is what I wanted it to smell like. Not that this smells anything like soap but pure and clean and just lovely. I could keep going about how much I love this scent, but I'll stop now

First the dirty scent of patchouli when wet. The carrot comes through pretty strong msking this smell like a veggie garden, dirt and all. Finally after a few minutes it mellows out some. I smell the peru balsam, which I love, wishh it were stronger here. Not really getting any white tea. This is not something I love and not something I can wear. I tried it out of curiosity so not really disappointed.

While I love the peppermint, spearmint and musk in this one, the elemi is setting me off. It reminds me of the leaves in a vegetable garden, strong and pungent. Maybe it will settle down, we'll see. While I love peppermint, the actually leaf smell of it is not as appealing and that is what I am getting from this blend. Those who love the smell of true peppermint leaves should love this.

What a lovely cool scent with a hint of delicate floral as it goes on wet. Unless it turns yucky I can already tell this will be one of my faves. As it dries it is smelling a little greener and a little more floral. Still very delicate and lovely.

First sniff is a bit weird. Smelled of honey and vinegar and then wood, fresh wood like from a just cut tree. Mostly fresh wood with a whishper of sweet honey. Nice. I love this blend and could not figure out why but now I know. It has the scents of my childhood, honey-fresh from the beehives my grandparents had and cedar, unmistakeable cedar. There is a whisper of tobacco in background. This is more masculine than feminine if I had to say, but I love it, probably not as a perfume but as a scent I want around me.

Oooh. very pretty and sweet. A very cold blend but not sterile, its sweet and a bit fruity. I smell almonds (though I know they are not listed), faint lemon, snow and flowers. Later, this is mostly soapy floral and quite a bit strong with the faint scent of toasted, yes I said toasted, nuts. Odd combination.

Oh wow! Be afraid, be very afraid. The vetiver is so strong. I'm trying this anyway but I hate vetiver and I know it is going to kill it for me. Strong and spicy and dirty. Slowly the tangerine/orange is surfacing. Later, not much has changed. The orange has remained faint while the vetiver gives off an earthy woody quality that seems to carry this blend.

Sharp vintage perfume. Brightening up a bit once on skin. This is really a strong floral but I'm not able to seperate them. Now it is softening up a bit, still floral, just lighter and prettier. Not so heavy now. I still can't distinguish the different notes though. Later... this is softer but still very floral. It smelled like a ton of flowers hitting me all at once. I'm not really into florals so this one is for someone else.

Sharp juniper. Wet, still juniper with lavender coming in second. Slowly I'm getting other notes like the rice wine. This is very cool, wintry and herbal with all of the notes coming through except osmanthus. I don't really smell the osmanthus. Now this is so smooth. Where before I felt as if each note were assaulting my olfactory senses, now everything has blended beautifully and is softer but still plenty of throw. I think I am finally getting a whisper of osmanthus but not enough to suit me for I love osmanthus. I started out not liking this. I am not a fan of the rice wine note or of lavender, but I find that I keep sniffing my wrist. This has morphed into something so lovely and interesting.

Mmm... pear and lime sugar. Wet skin, sweet still lime and pears but slowly here comes the carnation. Not bad but I don't think I'm a lover of carnations. Thankfully I'm not getting any thyme and green musk...well that could smell like anything depending on who blends it. Wow, a little later and this one is practically gone. Didn't change much, I get most a soft scent of pear with a whisper of lime and then poof! nothing.
