Dragon's Milk reminds me of root beer flavored hard candies, with a hint of milkiness. Smells amazing aged. Bought a couple bottles and wore it as my outdoor music fest scents for years!
-
Eden is a pretty scent. I've worn it for a couple days now. It's really light and has zero throw - I legit can't smell it unless I'm actually sniffing my skin.
-
A gentle white scent, breezes laced with the scent of springtime blooms and citrus. Lemon, lemon verbena, neroli, white musk, white florals, white sandalwood, China musk, bergamot and a drop of vanilla. When dried, Zephyr smells like sexy baby powder on my skin. It has zero throw and I have to sniff my wrists to pick up any scent.
-
Bengal smells like thick syrup honey, made from spicy flowers. Faded from my skin really fast.
-
It starts off smelling like musk with sweet sugar in the background - but then thirty minutes later it is pure incense on my skin.
-
Bread and Butterfly turns to soap on my skin. Bummer!
-
Tamora started off nice but quickly turned into 'play-dough mixed with baby powder' on my skin. I really wanted this one to work. Bummer.
-
Chocolate cake that slightly grows a berry scent, maybe like raspberry frosting. Not much throw though.
-
On my skin, Eat Me smells like someone made a pie filling from apricots or nectarines.
-
I wanted to love this scent but it's not for me. My skin makes it have a very strong/high pitched flower scent mixed with baby powder. Bummer!

I recently got ahold of a 2007 bottle of Midway (Resurrected). I like it, it smells like a mix of Sticky Pillowcase and possibly Yule Cookies together (or another buttery/brown sugar scent). It doesn't have much throw and doesn't last very long, but I can see why it has a cult following.
-
Yule Cookies was sweet/candy-ish on my skin,

I should know to check the notes before buying. Couldn't figure out why this one disagreed with me so much and later realized it had coffee bean in it. My mistake. : )

In Bottle - Smells like yummy buttery pumpkin pie with spices. There's some kinda sexy powder in here too. Would love to get ahold of more bottles.

I grew up in the south with a huge pecan tree in my front yard. As a kid, I'd crack open pecans and eat them fresh off the tree - so I'm sure you'll understand what a disappointment this scent was to me. Wet - I'm getting some light pecan but mostly getting dough and flour, but it's the raw pre-baked form and not the baked/crispy/buttery type that I had hoped for. Dry - It never gets to the point where it smells like buttery pecans, it's more like a scratch-and-sniff sticker version. I also get zero pumpkin in this.

Dorian is one of those scents that gets better with age! When I do a side-by-side comparison of my six year old bottle with the new bottle, the aged one wins easily. In bottle - bergamot, musk, and sugar. Dry - This smells amazing on me which is why it's my second favorite Bpal scent. Verdict - I will always own a bottle of Dorian. Definitely a keeper for life.

I purchased my first Lady Una bottle six years ago at a Bpal meet and sniff, she had owned it for years. In bottle - Smells delicate and gorgeous. On skin - Amazing. I recently purchased a new bottle directly from Bpal and it doesn't smell the same. When I do a side-by-side comparison of the two Lady Una bottles, the new one smells very different. I think i would only ever wear this if it's aged by five plus years.
-
First try - I was initially disappointed because it didn't smell how I thought it would. I also had no self control and had opened and sniffed every bottle/imp from the package I had just received from Bpal, so my palate was overloaded with scents. Second try - After trying it months later - yeah, Bewitched smells pretty good like berries and sugar! I love every single place this oil takes me. Verdict - I'm so happy that I gave it another chance and didn't immediately swap it. I've been wearing this scent for SIX YEARS now and it's one of my favorites. It is a keeper for life. People compliment me when I wear this. I highly recommend you try this aged to get the best version of it.

In Bottle - It smells like black cherry kool-aid meets marshmallow, yum! It's always good when something reminds you of your childhood. Dry - I like this scent, after a bit it gets more mature. Keeper. It gets better with age. I have a six year old bottle and a brand new one - the older one smells deeper and more rich.
-
I have tried this scent multiple times and do not like it. Though, I let two guys I know try it and it smelled amazing on both of them (one ended up buying a full bottle for himself). So I know it can smell good, it just doesn't work for my skin.
-
It smells like mandarin oranges and sugar in the bottle and I like it! My skin changes it though so it didn't work for me!
-
Wet on skin: Sweet buttery cakes, yum! Dry on skin: Tobacco. Totally reminds me of the cigars my pawpaw smoked. I'm surprised there's no tobacco in the scent notes but something in it turns to cigars on me!
-
Morocco is exactly what I look for in a musk and it's definitely big-bottle worthy. It's a very soft, sweet, and sexy scent. Smells best aged, or if you can get a pre-2016 bottle!

Jack is so amazing and I love this scent. I'd like to find a drink that tastes as good as Jack smells! My only issue is after the dry down - it starts to lose the sweetness on my skin so I have to reapply. It's great mixed with other scents and also worn in a scent locket.
