aviva

now i finally know what everyone raves about. i smell the green and the florals in this immediately, in fact, that's what i manly get out of it the whole time, like rose stems and baby's breath.

in the bottle, all white chocolate, i wasnt even sure if i'd like it...

on, im selling the coconut, a soft coconut.

synopsis: like a piece of godiva chocolate would be...

i'm smelling ALL cherry blossoms. in the bottle, on and after dry down. even hours later. i tried it alone, and then layered with japanese cherry blossom lotion from bath and body works.

LOVE IT.

a dark green, murky scent. it's not spot on for actual absinthe, but i love it anyway. my 5ml smelled differently than my friend's imp, but i rather like mine better, it's less minty.

a keeper, for sure.

in the bottle it reminds me of a pale sugar skull.

on, it gets rather dirty...i dont really smell florals just something...sinister?

this is pure lemon pledge on me. i am not loving it at all.

will probably have to sell or swap.

this is a heady, chocolate hazelnut explosion...dizzying. i LOVE it. i need a big bottle, before i go insane. i can smeel it an hour after drydown, through my clothes. it's fantastic with my chemistry.

this is an absolutely lovely green floral, very exotic. but like othershave mentioned, doesn't have a long staying power.

still love it though.

im getting a strong orange and possibly a slight lemon...and definitely a sweetness,but i wouldn't have picked it as chocolate without reading some reviews here.

overall, it really works nicely on me.

i have no idea what version i have, but this is leaps and bounds my favorite scent so far. i love it's combination of sugars, maple, caramel, brown sugar, and the spices that lay underneath. i can't help but smell myself for hours when wearing it. love, love love it.

so basically, from what i'm reading here... "awaiting shipment" means nothing. and the wait time on orders is highly variable? just making sure i understand correctly...i have 3 orders placed(i went a little overboard) and i've never ordered from bpal before.

all i can smell is jean nate, which is something my grandmother wore...totally not wearable for me.
