    Mad Hatter

    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.

    Jolly Roger

    this was a much lighter pirate scent than anne bonny. It was a nice salty sea soaked leather strap tied around a bit of driftwood. Very nice

    The Mock Turtle's Lessons

    Not quite Turtle Soup: blurry aquatic notes, with a confusing, contrary splort of iris, ambrette, green apple, vodka, white mint and a squish of lime. This was not strong enough it went on nice aquatic and slightly appley and then disappeared almost instantly.

    Nocturne

    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.

    Pannychis

    This smelled like lime and that really earwaxxy honey smell that b never to busy too be beautiful shower gel had. I haven't had to wash it off but I don't like it.

    The Buggre Alle This Bible

    The first time I tried this it was to faint for me to smell, but i did have a sinus infection. I tried it today and my boyfriend said has someone been smoking in here? He sniffed me and said that's not good it makes you smell like an ashtray.

    Ghûlheim

    Smokey and earthy not too strong. Sadly staying power isn't really enough for me to pay the extra but this is the only thing I don't love about this.

    Black Lace

    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.
  10. maybe it's the vanilla thing then. I've just never had them take that long before the longest i've ever waited was 3 weeks for my clip n ship.
  11. 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.

    Katrina van Tassel

    the cream in this blend stops it from turning into old lady rose smell. This is a nice enough perfume but not really my kind of thing.
  13. I'm looking for some nice summery scents and wondering what gc or luperci scents would make for great summer scents that will entice my boy into some summer lovin'

    Pumpkin I (2008)

    i usually love the pumpkin patches but this one was too sweet for my liking and something in it burnt my skin so off to swaps we go.

    A Bachelor's Dog

    This smelt just like perversion when i first put it on, being a big perversion fan that's a good thing. Then it mellow's out into a softer but still sweet leather like perversion's more laid back older sister!

    The Deep Ones

    This to me smells very soapy but definitely has more staying power than most of the aquatics i've tried so far. I don't really like it on me but my boyfriend loves it i'm gonna try and give it to him i think.

    Iago

    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!

    Blood Rose

    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.

    Tempest

    This becomes a light breezy sweet slightly floral scent on my skin. Nice but not the unique rainstorm scent i was hoping for.

    The Hessian of the Hollow

    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!

    Kali

    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.

    Muse

    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.

    Faustus

    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.

    Y'ha-nthlei

    this was just a very light sweet smell on me barely noticable no throw and medium staying power. I'm sure this would be beautiful on someone else maybe on my boy but it just doesn't work on me.

    Jezirat Al Tennyn

    this smelt exactly like laudanum to me so much so that i think the lab must have accidentally mislabelled this imp.
