  1. Just off the top of my head, I want to smell like:

     

    -Thimble Island, State Fair, Brand New Key, and AntiqueHighHeelRedDollShoes by Rasputina

     

    -Thirteen by Big Star

     

    "AntiqueHighHeelRedDollShoes" seems kind of Obsidian Widow to me, for reasons I cannot begin to understand. Maybe because OW strikes me as a "red" scent.

     

    I feel like "Thirteen" (awesome song, btw!) is summery, warm and sweet and grassy. I get that from Roadhouse, weirdly, but YMMV.

     

    Interesting recommendations, lucy gray. I've never tried either of those scents before, so I guess I'll have to hunt down a couple of imps and see what happens. Like I need another excuse to buy more BPAL. ;) In related news, isn't "Thirteen" the cutest effing song? My first real schoolgirl crush made me a mixed tape w/ that song on it and I've adored it ever since. Ah, youth...

    I could go on...but I won't. I don't this post getting ridiculous.


  3. This scent has been rocking my world for days now, so i felt compelled to write a review. Bear with me, i'm new at this.

     

     

    In zee imp: musky, slightly sharp, and ever so slightly sweet.

     

    Fresh on: Oooers, champagne and light musk with a hint of expensive hairspray. Let's par-tay, ev'rybody!

     

    After a bit:The tobacco flower takes over in a big way and i like it! It's still a bit musky, sweet with occasional flashes of that champagne and hairspray goodness(who knew hairspray could smell so fetching?)!

     

    Zee verdict:i can't seem to get enough of this one, which is weird, because when i first tried it nearly a year ago i wasn't quite so enamoured. Huh, things change I guess. In this case, most definitely for the better! i need a big bottle or two pronto!
