This is almost a cinnamon single note on me. Wet: Came out of the imp hot, dusty, and overwhelming like you flopped an open container of cinnamon on the counter and huffed the resulting cloud. Dry: Less dry cinnamon, more sweet like cinnamon gummi bears. Very dry: Clove has come out at the very end but this is still primarily a cinnamon smell. I think this may be a matter of skin chemistry. If you like spicy scents, this might work for you.

Mimosa and citrus make this a very light scent. Pepper, carnation, and amber (and cinammon bears for the briefest of seconds) bring it down to earth a little and soften the tang. Together, they make this an inviting, familiar, and warm scent. It's a good time you can't ignore but it's not overpowering or one you'll regret. My nose doesn't feel punished after huffing it on a variety of fabrics. It's what the 80s and early 90s potpourri sachets wished they could be.

Wet: bright and effervescent. Can something smell like how champagne bubbles zip around? I think they captured that here. Semidry: There might be a citrus rind (grapefruit? pomelo?) in there. Waxy but still bright and clean. Dry: There's a whiff of good old fashioned cream soda or NY seltzer without the cloying sweetness. It's bubbly like a soda--slower, bigger. Very dry: meeting in the middle--low key fizzy grapefruit cream soda. It's a whole journey. I get the nostalgia feeling: we're trying to explain what this one is like...but you kind of have to be there...and even then we can't quite capture it.

It's mosh pit/festival season for me. That means braids and braids mean hair gloss. This is a lonely ocean cliff where the scent of the local conifers and evergreens rolls in to the fog and surf spray. Monterey or Santa Cruz first thing in the morning in early spring. I'd pair it with an aquatic, a salty aquatic, or a clean green with watery notes.

Wet: soapy amber out of the gate Dry: white musk floral with faint hints of jasmine or honeysuckle depending on the wrist. Not chokingly floral or particularly strong. I love jasmine and honeysuckle as a combination. Of all of the BPAL that I have with those notes, this one smells the least like the two. If you have a fear of these notes, this might be a good one to try.

Wet: Let's lay in some fresh, verdant, herby grass. The lime helps brighten this quite a bit--it's the peel/lime oil vs lime juice. Semidry/dry: ...am I minty now? Not like toothpaste: like a good tea where you can get whiffs of it wafting out of the drinking hole of your Thermos but it might smack you in the face if you open it up. Helladry: Irish Spring but better. I smell like I just bathed. It's not soapy, just very clean citrus greenery. The grass note is gone. This isn't very loud on me so it might be a good pick for those who prefer their scents to stay closer to their skin rather than announce their arrival or hint they were once in the room.

This is a scent in two acts: I. Deep dark black cherry giving way to red sandalwood and plums (~10 mins). II. Kyphi smoke clinging close to the body (hours). This isn't my usual in terms of preferred scents. I was pleasantly surprised by the ripe cherry (vs. a cherry candy/sugary plastic) smell. The smoke is a little headshop-y without the dirty funk. I think this one would be better as a hair gloss because the fruit notes would probably have more staying power.

Wet: Immediate burst of patchouli that quickly dissipates. Dry: Bright pomegranate, herbs (I'm guessing that's the vermouth), and what I think is dragon's blood or red musk (sweet, earthy/woody). Clove tends to scream on me and it's MIA. Very dry: Pomegranate. I'd liken it to Pomegranate, Spicy Geranium, Black Musk, and Peach Pulp for the pomegranate and musk/musk-adjacent notes bit it's lacking sweetness or flower-based "spice." I feel like I can't smell it anymore, which usually means my skin is eating it or it's about to smack someone in the face 10 ft away from me. We'll find out.

Wet: juicy, hypersweet apricot. You just cut the fruit and rivulets of juice pour out. Semidry: Tea tames the apricot a tiny bit. This is still apricot-forward on both wrists. It's more in your face than the apricot in Peach Vulva. Definitely drinkable summertime. Dry: The apricot stands alone. I think this is a wonderful waning summertime in to fall blend.

There's smoke in this? Normally I amp smoke and smoke adjacent scents (like incense) with phenomenal staying power....but it's nowhere on me. This one is all freshly watered honeysuckle and warm sweet jasmine (no screech, no indole/poop, no sour) on me from application to drydown to fade hours later.

Wet: This is the second kind of fight with a fifth of something that could double as rocket fuel immediately upon application. HIGH PROOF AND VIOLENTLY FLAMMABLE ALCOHOL NEAT WITH NO CHASER in very big letters. After that burns off, I'd compare it to red Nyquil: there's the big, boozy, and in your face smell plus a burning syrupy sweetness that probably doesn't mean you well. Semidry: That honey is powdery. It's riding the line between cloying and chemical. Dry: The bottom of this screams "your favorite dude" smell. This is sorcery. It's masculine and cologne-like but sweet--no hard wood edges or deep vetiver smells. I caught a whiff of clove in there, too. I could see this as the aftermath of the fight, a body cooled down with the memory of sweat and whatever he put on a few hours ago before he went out. And then my skin ate it.

Mmm. It's bright tangy metal then turns in to the smokey steel of SkekUng and leather with an amber bottom. I enjoy this.

Wet: BIG BLAST OF LEATHER quickly subsumed by vanilla, both crowded out by the vegetal aspects of Snake Oil. Semidry: Plastic. Updates: if you can endure the shift to plastic, the reward is the worn leather + spicy snake oil center of Western Diamondback (e.g. sans sage and sandalwood) with vanilla. It's love. Update 2: It might be a batch thing. Got a bottle of this and it sat for about a week. No plastic gnarliness to be found after application yesterday (15DEC). It does have some serious staying power: mom says she can still smell me in her car after a 15 minute ride and the leather-vanilla-spice complex is still huffable on my left wrist.

I really wanted to like this but it turned in to industrial strength cleanser (like a lower pitch, less bleachy Comet powder) on me immediately. I can smell all of the notes in the tester so I know they're there. I LIKE the way they smell together. This is well-blended with a good balance of low-key sweet, citrus, and floral. I'm not sure if it's the violet, bergamot, or champagne (a very dry brüt could have this kind of tang) but this one does not like me and my skin chemistry. Edit: tried on a spot closer to my elbow a few hours after initial application about a minute ago. I got a blast of neroli and bergamot but that cleanser smell is screaming to the surface (~45s).

Bay Rum, Molasses, & Patchouli
DigitalCoyote replied to zankoku_zen's topic in Duets & Menage A Trois
BLUF: The notes of all three smells work together to create a gentle yet sweet dark scent that doesn't overpower or dominate. Wet: Rum (not boozy) and molasses combine to make a rich and sweet pairing. Semi-dry: The patchouli keeps the two of them from going over the edge in to a saccharine abyss. Dry: Warm, sweet smell that has a long throw but holds close to the skin. Not particularly foody/gourmand at this point.- 4 replies
