  1. very redcurrant. i used to have a lip balm from bath and bodyworks that smells almost exactly the same. smells kinda fruit punchy & very similar to aunt caroline's joy mojo. i prefer jester to aunt caroline's. it's a very up playful happy scent. and therefore quite well suited to its name. i am not usually able to tolerate sweet scents, but i do enjoy this one. :P ........and now i am craving juicy fruit gum..!


  2. smells so so sweeeeeet. syrupy. unfortunately much to sweet for my nose. i detect bits of pine and pumpkin apples and fall treats. it does have a very autumnal scent to it. i really wish this would work for me with samhain being my fave holiday and all. but alas, it does not.


  3. i sprayed some monyette on me when i was in a beauty shop in new orleans. i remember liking it but didn't have money for it, and still have not got around to purchasing.

     

    but i do not recall sacred whore or any bpal scents to be similar thus far, but i'd probably have to re-sniff monyette again to be sure. it's been awhile now.

     

    i would recommend to try scherezade though. it has a warm incense tone to it that you may like.


  4. to my nose it is a combo of o, snake oil, black phoenix, and baby powder. mostly similar to o.

     

    i do like snake oil, but my skin does NOT like o, and i don't like baby powder smell. ick!

     

    seeing as how popular o and snake oil are though, i think this will be a highly regarded scent.


  5. thanks for all your recommends :D

     

    i drink almost only water these days so as far as that goes i don't think that is an issue.

     

    sinus problems is where i have the most trouble. i think what would help me most is if i quit smoking. :P smoking is such a nasty habit...and i think it may be the main cause of my sinus ickiness.

     

    i have been meaning to take some calcium and vitamin supplements. being a vegetarian since i was 16 i think i am lacking in some of the nutrients i might need.

     

    thanks again :D


  6. hiya.

     

    i was hoping someone could recommend some good medications, or other remedies for:

     

    *sinus pain/congestion

    *pain in general (particularly from standing around at work all day, ouchie feets!)

    *menstrual cramp pain

     

    and anything else really.

     

    what pills, herbs, medicines, etc help you, and could maybe even possibly help me? :P

     

    thanks!

     

     

    *****i mean to post this in randomness, if someone could move it for me that'd be great, sorry i am tireeed*****


  7. this scent brings me back to my trip in new orleans. it's a swampy, sticky floral. but lazy and relaxing.

     

    a heady floral, with hints of spice and grassy notes. it's initially a bit too much for my nose, but as it calms down it blends beautifully.

     

    a very warm enveloping scent, taking you away to southern bayou bliss. :P

     

    this very much makes me want to go back to visit new orleans even more.

     

    an overall very intriguing, well blended scent. yay.although may be a bit sweet/heady for some.

     

    **edit** after wearing for a bit longer, i am getting a headache from the scent. i think i will dilute it in a spray and hopefully it will work better that way**


  8. smells like strawberry wine cooler goodness. it's a fun, young & sweet scent.

     

    not something i would wear regularly, but i think i will use up the imp though :P

     

    i think people who like hollywood babylon would like this one as it reminds me of it.

     

    sniffing this out of the vial conjure's up visions of being a kid, outside selling

    kool-aid at a "lemonade stand". or running after the "ice cream man" truck. very reminiscent of childhood fun. puts a smile on your face.


  9. i have tried a lot of the cinnamon/spicy scents, and none of them smell like chai...

    i love chai tea myself and would absolutely adore having a chai tea scent made! :P

     

    as far as scents the lab does have though, i think you would appreciate sin. it has a lighter warm cinnamon wafting scent. very yummy.

     

    +i just mixed scherezade, dragon's heart and snake oil, and it smells heavenly too


  10. hmmmmm..

     

    dragon's heart is my first or 2nd fave bpal scent. can't decide between it & snake oil...i usually just wear them both at the same time :D

     

    it's the nice spicy of dragon's blood & sweet of the fig... and it makes a perfectly lovely comfy combination.

     

    i know if i curled up next to someone else wearing this scent i don't think i'd ever want to leave their side hehe :D

     

    i have ordered a 10ml bottle of dragon's heart recently, and will probably order more soon just because i am paranoid of running out or misplacing it or etc.

     

    :P
