  1. This is so Strange. When I first put it on it was all icy cold on my skin and minty/menthol smelling then it smelt overwhelmingly like pennyroyal and finally settled(if you can call it that) into a strange vanilla leather scent. I cannot honestly so whther or not i like it at this stage, it's definitely interesting and i don't hate it.


  2. this scent was a bit sour when it first hit my skin but then it settled down into the most beautiful soft floral scent. This scent is everything I loved about blood rose softened and minus the sneeze factor. This will certainly be a big bottle purchase for me. :wub2:


  3. This has been the bpal that has morphed the most on me but what a journey. It just had the generic bpal smell in the bottle. Then on my skin it smelt like rum n raisin ice cream melted over a leather jacket. Then it dried down into two new scents. Far away it smells like vanilla but when i sniff my wrist it smells like perversion. Very nice.


  4. I can't help but notice as i'm desperately waiting for my bpal order, that people are waiting over a month to get even get their clip n ship notice let alone their order. I've ordered bpal a few times before and my halloween order took a while but i thought that was because of the lead up to christmas. I guess what i really want to know is should i expect this all the time or is there a valid reason for such a long wait. I don't want to seem like i'm down on bpal i just think it's an extremely long time to expect a customer to wait for a product they've already paid for.


  5. every note in this is a favourite with me so this is absolutely stunning on me. The black musk and vertiver keep the leather from going soapy and the leather keeps this scent from being too dark. This goes straight into my top ten list! :P


  6. Rose is a very hit and miss note on me depending on the other notes in the blend it can go sweet or rancid. This blend works beautifully with my skin chemistry and becomes a lovely scent just like some capricorn incense sticks i use to buy all the time. It has the sharp blood note that has been sweetened by the rose and wine notes and ground by what seems to my nose to be sandalwood. This is a lovely bright incensey blend which is bright enough for summer but dark enough for winter too.


  7. i was worried this would be to manly on me as it smelt very masculine out of the bottle but alas once it hits my skin it becomes a lovely sweet perfumey scent, more like an elegant rich ladies day perfume. I can pick out the lovely sandalwood and vertiver notes as well as lavender and vanilla? Defintely smell the leather in this one. I was thinking of giving this one to my boyfriend or one of my male relatives but i love it too much for that! :P


  8. When I first opened the bottle of this not remembering any of the notes I got a bliss chocolate blast which made me want to slather it on. Once on the chocolate all but disappears and this becomes a gorgeous honeyed hibiscus and wild tulip scent that I'm quite smitten with, just wish it had better throw as this becomes a skin scent on me.


  9. this does not agree with my skin chemistry at all. It's turned into a lemony piss and vomit smell. It's like walking out into your garden the day after you threw a big party to discover that your guest have pissed and vomited all over the lemon tree. I had to scrub this off as it made me want to wretch. Scarey what ones body chemistry can do. :P


  10. hmm i was a little worried about this one because of the cinnamon but no cinnamon burn in sight or smell. this was straight frankencense and voilet on me. It was a beautiful sweet incensey smell that worked beautifully with my skin chemistry and my body shop rich plum body butter.
