This scent make me mad. Because I've been a bpal fan for 14 years and I freaking love both Snake Oil and Snow White and it has never once fucking occured to me to layer them. WTF was wrong with me? I mean, I did have that stroke that one time but that really shouldn't have kept me from trying those two together dammit. These are genius together and I wore this for 3 days straight after testing it. Everywhere I went I was enveloped in this marzipan Snake Oil cloud and of awesomeness. Jesus why are you still reading this review and not on the bpal site ordering a bottle or ten?

On wet it is Snow Glass Apples and a splash of red wine. Dry the wine is gone and the SGA is much lighter. Now the honey comes out and it is like encountering a bee hive in the autumn woods. Despite all the familiar notes and blends listed in the description this is an original for sure. There is a tart whiff that I can detect if I'm huffing my wrist close otherwise it is sandalwood honey green tea. Really hard to pin down. A winner for sure.

First on it smells like a fruity, tobacco, Sugar Skull. Definitely has that mapley/caramel sugar note. I'm not getting a lot of peaches more of a mash of juicy red berries. The fruits fade out pretty fast and am mostly left with what I'm convinced is some cousin of Sugar Skull with a hint of fruit and sweet tobacco.

Do you like Dorian? Do you like Antique Lace? Then this should be a no brainer buy. It is gorgeous. I've worn it twice and I only got it yesterday. The is a hint of sweet lavender as well. It is such a relaxing sweet tea blend I can't recommend it enough.

Fig! I love fig so that was the first thing I noticed out of the bottle. That creamy fig scent that I love so much in Eden. On however the fig is much less prominent and it becomes a bright, sparking, almost citrusy tea blend. Beautiful.

The Mark, this was the last of my luper bottle buys that I tried. I left it for last because I was all wussy afraid of the vetiver. Dumb of me. Yes in the bottle and first on it is all VETIVER but after 5 minutes it mellows out and is all gorgeous dry vanilla sandalwood. The vetiver just makes it a deeper, richer scent. Totally win.

Day-Old Ham smells like motherfucking day old ham. If you thought, "Oh Beth doesn't hate us that much it will probably smell like Unicorn farts." Well Beth clearly DOES hate us this much and if you think it smells like unicorn farts it is only because unicorn farts smell like fucking day old ham. I could get out my bottle of Gore Shock and compare the two but I don't hate myself that much.

Beat the rush and go buy a bottle of this now. You won't be sorry. I don't get any bitterness at all, more of a rose hip tea sort of blend. It reminds me a bit of Dorian and is just beautiful. Tea, a hint of sweetness and some kind of red berry in the mix.

No clue how to describe this, wet it is a sweet almost juicy blend on me. Clean but in no way soapy. Unisex, or maybe just asexual. Dry it becomes more leathery with a slight bitterness. Definate win.

In the bottle I think this smells like girl scout Samoa cookies. On it dries down to something very similar to Spooky. Love it.

Lots of orange/orange blossom honey in here. Basically smells like golden citrus sunshine. But I swear there is tobacco in here somewhere.

Does anyone have pictures of the NYCC labels?

I can see how some would get cotton candy from this. The musky sweetness reminds me a lot of the sugar spun sweetness of Midway. I think it is the Benzoin. I love the way this goes on but it seems to fade pretty fast on me (one hour). It could just be that it is warm here and my skin is dry so YMMV.

I am a jasmine hater and didn't expect to like this but I do. A beautiful sweet floral and is STRONG. Let me repeat. It is effing STRONG! I used it as an end of shower slathering and scent wise a little goes a long way. Jasmine and Honey are definatly the most prominent notes and the jasmine doesn't go wonky on me like most do so thumbs up

Love this to pieces. Am a huge sandalwood fan and this gloss has it in spades. A nice smooth woody sweet sandalwood. I think the fig really serves to amp the sweet quality of the sandalwood, really makes it lush and creamy.

 

I used this in my wet hair and brushed it through. When it was dry my hair was super soft and not as flyaway as normal. And the scent really lasts. I will need lots of this am just in love.

The delicious honey and orange combo makes Pussy smell a lot like Lush's B Never Shower gel - which I freaking adore So basically Pussy is my favorite BPAL honey scent to date. The tobacco really adds another dimension to the blend. Fabulous

Wet it kinda reminds me of Sweet tarts. A sweet juicy yet powdery scent.

 

Dry it goes much more floral but still sweet

It smells like creamy vanilla amber honey musk goodness with a hint of wet green plant stems.

HI there

 

I placed an order that was marked shipped on 29 April by BPAL (no USPS email though). When I contacted the answers@ email address from my Googlemail, on 19 May I got no response but did have the next day an email from the US postal service saying the parcel had been posted on 19 May!

 

I am really surprised not to have any communication about this - is this normal?

 

Am kind of confused by your post. So you got a CnS on the 19th from USPS and are wondering where your order is? Are you in the UK like your flag suggests? Do parcels usually take under a week to get from the states to you? Because that doesn't seem like you have been waiting long?

Warm oatmeal cookies. Sweet earthy oats and chai tea. Stays pretty close to the skin

Heliotrope is a favorite scent of mine so am very happy that I can pick it out in this blend. Chaotic is very much a warm musk blend sweetend up by the sweet vanilla of heliotrope. There is a hint of something plant/spicy in the background.

Look for blends from the LE series Paduan Killer Bees. Also there are a bunch of honey blends in the Rappaccin's apiary.

To me it smells exactly like corn chips. Or those hard corn taco shells you get in the grocery store. which are basically corn chips. LOL. I really don't know what in here makes it smell like that to my nose. It is kinda funny that my nose is this weird sometimes.

 

Corn chips

It does remind me of Lush - in the best way. Am calling this a relaxing lime blend. It is citrusy but sweet and the chamomile is a powdery soothing compliment to it. Liking this a lot
