I LOVE the Lab's honey note, so I HAD to beg Tramp to get me a bottle.

 

It's very fruity and sweet in the bottle, less fruity and sweet on my skin. Kinda sharp - the hyssop and bark must keep it from being overwhelmingly sweet. Very appley upon application, but dries down softer. Reminds me a of a sweeter Sir Hugh Ockram's Winding Sheet (must be the hyssop).

Sharp lavendar in the bottle, seems to be more peachy and light on my skin. Dissappears quickly though. But, I've noticed this week my perfumes don't seem to last long. Maybe because it's winter and my skin is so dry?

A close-to-the-skin scent that evokes winter wind and chill. Soft & light, a perfect perfume for cold days and snuggling.

Yup - I agree with the idea of spearmint in the mix, which is semi-evident at first application, but dissappears shortly thereafter. Now it's a soft, light floral, with a bit of soapiness. So far, not a winner.

ooh - a tart appley delight in the bottle, becomes more spicy upon application. So nice & bright! Love it!

Although it's a "tropicial" kinda scent, it works in the fall too. Very soft like Snow White, but with an edge of coconut. So nice! *huffs wrists*

Very rosy on me. Must be I amp rose.

I don't get any orange. Just custard cake with some light florals on top.

VERY grassy to me in the imp. Turns dewy & leafy on on skin. Can really smell the rooibos now. Not really my scent, but nice.

I agree, it was a bit boozy when I got it (2010 version), but today it's smooth and musky. Nicely layered with Lush Potion Lotion today!

Kinda sharp & tangy in the imp, soft and creamy on the arm. Seemed to dissappear quickly, but very nice.

This is very floral and strong on me. I was hoping a bit more of the rotten linen would come out (like in Sir Hugh Ockram's Winding Sheet Rotting linen, white sandalwood, hyssop, and dust.) I think I like Sir Hugh better (strange, I thought I was a floral gal & BPAL has made me reconsider that!)

I don't get much chocolate at all. I think the champaca flower overpowers everything else. So sad, this one doesn't work that well for me.

I really wanted to love this one. I think the blood musk, antique patchouli & vetiver are just too much together for me. It is RMW, so I'll give it another go another time, but I bet this would smell awesome on my man!

light and soft, the scent matches wonderfully with the BPTP Oceans/Kisses bath oil. WOW. Why didn't I try this before?

The most awesome BPTP bath oil to date. period.

 

*gives great review*

From the notes, this was the one I was most interested in from the updated. Smells great in the imp, but seems to fade really fast on my skin. a very pollen-ey honey scent is left behind.

Started really floral on me. Maybe more musky & rosy at this point. hm.

Very spicy - reminds me (at this stage) of a stronger Lush American Cream scent. Tonka & ginger cream. NOM.

This stuff is awesome. A bit sharp on the SO (as usual), but it warms up to a sweet, spicy love. I will most certainly have to stock up. I think this will be most excellent in a year when the SO calms down a bit.

 

(oh - and, there are two different labels, since I ordered two bottles & got two different labels )

Same here, had to try it, love the story. SO glad I did! I spilt a bit last year, so I've been scared to use it, but figured - why have it if I'm not wearing it?

 

So, it seemed a bit greener and almost sweet in the bottle today (aged 1 yearish?), but still gorgeous. A light scent on me, but awesome. It's certainly a beautiful scent.

By all accounts, this should be a blend I love (all the notes are winners - I think?) but it goes wonky on me - I was smelling a soapy crayon in the car (on the way to work), now I'm getting the beachy/coconut smell. I was hoping for a more complex orange, but it's not working on me. Still too soapy.

 

oh well, I always have the Maltese Cross of St. Germanus to fall back on.

I love the BPTP bath oils - they're perfect for a spash of moisturizer and scent at the end of a shower (in addition to being a wonderful addition to my bathing ritual). I HAD to get it when I saw honey. Oceans smells a lot like Lush's Gorgeous/It's a Pleasure Treasure scent (orange blossoms / neroli), which I love. It is just gorgeous. I may need another bottle to stash away....

Very light floral that gets lost in a bit when maybe the sandalwood comes out? So pretty to start with - the lilac & pear play off each other. Yeah - I can see the similarity with Lush's Sakura, but it turns on me. Not sure if this is a keeper or not.....

Very appley and coconut? on the first application. Settles into that nice nutty apple I wanted. So cozy & fallish! Love it!
