    Rum-Soaked French Tonka

    A warm, boozy, soft vanilla smell in the bottle that becomes more of a soft vanilla on the skin. It's not a strong scent, but I like it very much. Perfect for days when I don't want something wawaweewa strong!

    Lick It Softly

    Other Lick It incarnations were just not good on me, the mint was too soft, the vanilla too sweet and they usually dissipated really quickly. This version is perfect, warm, musky vanilla with a soft peppermint note. Love it!!

    Sugar Cookie

    Other Sugar Cookie versions were too sickly sweet on me, but this year's was perfect. Rich, sugary, spicy, buttery cookie goodness. A tiny bit rummy too, but in a good way. Happy I can wear this classic!

    Mother Shub's Gingerbread Temples

    This smelled like a resinous temple full of gingerbread. It smelled a little weird at first, but upon dry down it was amazing, rich soft and sexy. I might have to get a bottle!

    Sparkling Apple Cider

    This smells like an apple note soap or air freshener... and I think that I have smelled a similar note in Yankee Candle. Apple notes don't often play well on my skin and this is no exception. In the imp this smelled a lot more effervescent and fizzy, so my guess is that this is a skin chemistry issue and others might get a very different experience.

    Pink Champagne

    Fizzy, sweet and a "pink" champagne blend. This really does smell pink to me. The champagne is faint and there is a strawberry element, but there's more too, maybe some kind of very light rose floral? I can't put my finger on it. It's fun and very girly, but not for me, alas.

    Champagne And Absinthe

    A pleasant, boozy champagne note with anise. Champagne can tend to go a little sour on me, but this avoids it so I actually am pleasantly surprised. The two notes are layered very well.

    Jack Soap

    JACK The scent of warm, glowing jack o'lanterns on a warm autumn night: true Halloween pumpkin, spiced with nutmeg, glowing peach and murky clove. Fabulous pumpkin, peach and spices. So much better than how Jack the oil smelled on me! This soap is the rich, mellow orange of pumpkin purée.

    White Pumpkin Extrait

    This is impossibly yummy. Soft, light pumpkin that is not at all buttery, with vanilla musk. Sexy, sweet, satisfying. Please, please, please Puddin', please sell this separately!

    Sagardoa Soap

    Apple cider... beautiful fall scent... I love it!

    The British Blondes Atmosphere Spray

    Elegant, sophisticated soft orchid floral with a hint of wood and skin. This is a beautiful scent and makes my room seem all the more distinguished.

    Steeplechase Park Atmosphere Spray

    Midway, the atmo spray version. Cakes, fried goodness and a hint of wood. A foodie lover's dream, a dieter's nightmare.

    Wad Of Chewed Up Strawberry Bubblegum

    Strawberry Bubble Yum--a dead ringer for it! Similar to Sticky Pillowcase, but I amp strawberry.

    Marshmallow Pumpkin

    This scent is double-win for me because normally the lab's pumpkin note is too gross and buttery on me and the marshmallow/sweets scents are too sweet and cloying. In this case, it's like the best of both worlds! The pumpkin is warm and spiced, but not thick and buttery. The marshmallow gives the pumpkin the sweetness, and sticks around after the pumpkin is gone. Delicious, tasty and satisfying!

    Plastic Jack O'lantern Soap

    No plastic, just candied fruits and marshmallow candies. Delicious!

    Snow White Atmospheric Spray

    This is just like the perfume, but for your room. I also spray this on my scarves and it smells sooooo yummy.

    Tricksy Bath Oil

    Super patchouli for lovers of the patch only! Yummy but quite intense. Definitely needs to be well shaken.

    The Asylum

    Minty, cool and slightly antiseptic, this is freshening and sinister at the same time. I love it!

    Port Royal Soap

    This is one of my favorite of the BPTP new soap bars. The salt, rum and wood form a rich, yummy unisex scent that appeals to everyone I've begged to sniff my soap! All the pink salt on top fell off when I got it in the shower, but that's ok. Soap wise this is great, silken, lathery and not drying. The perfume doesn't linger on my skin.

    Shub-Niggurath Soap

    This has the lightest scent of any of the BPTP soaps I have tried. It's less like Shub the perfume oil, but it does have a pleasant gingery/spicy scent. It doesn't last on my skin after drying off.

    Clémence

    This seemed like it would be such a win on me, but instead all I get is black pepper, clove and a very tiny hint of tea. No patchouli, cardamom or carnation. In the decant it did smell a bit earthier, I assume thanks to the patchouli, but that is not coming out on me. Shoot!

    Western Diamondback

    I get snake oil mixed with leather and sage and just a hint of tonka. The snake oil seems faded, and is not as potent and strong as the real thing. This fades quickly.

    Saw-Scaled Viper

    Snake Oil with a cinnamony-ginger tinge. It doesn't seem to mix well to me, the mysterious vanilla-musk-spices of Snake Oil and then the sharp cinnamon and ginger offset each other. This burned a bit, but faded quickly. The red ginger in particular was the only note left and it is not a good one on me. I swapped my bottle away.

    Tiki Princess

    This is totally Snow White's fun, beachy, Hawaiian hapa cousin named Beach Tan. She is exotic and fun loving. Beach Tan will wake up at six am to go surfing, cut off the boys and then team up with her friend to do a tandem headstand for a final ride on the waves. Beach Tan has long, shiny, wavy brown hair that is highlighted from the sun. She lives in a bikini with a tube dress coverup and flip flops. She always smells like the summer version of Snow White, softer, warmer with a hint more coconut than her cousin. She is light and fun and perfect for warm, summery adventures.

    Snake Oil Bath Oil

    ladyjc hit this on the nose... it's straight up aged Snake Oil in bath oil form! I use it as a mix with my moisturizer, a nickel-sized pool in my palm mixed with unscented lotion resulted in a delicious scented moisturizer that has lasted 3 hours so far and still strong. I would like a hot tub filled with this stuff!
