Toffee in a bottle! Smells a little dark and treacly wet to be butterscotch, so it's definitely what I call 'Bonfire Night toffee'. Some of the Brits on here will possibly know what I mean...
As it dries it gets more creamy/buttery but never quite loses that toffee smell, though it does get less sweet. And it lasts. And lasts. And lasts. Yum!

In the bottle: I get pine, lime, almonds and a deeper woody note
wet: yuk! Smells of very sickly marzipan and toilet cleaner on my skin
1 hour later: now settling down to something wearable - the almond has almost disappeared and I'm left with a woody and spicy yet fresh smell.
I quite ike the drydown of this, but it really smells strange in a not particularly pleasant way for the first 30 - 60 minutes, and the drydown isn't special enough for me to go through with the first hour of unpleasantness! Won't be getting any more of this.
Lush to BPAL scent comparisons (BNever included too)

Well it doesn't smell of lavender, but I think Bewitched goes amazingly well with Ooh la la due to the herbiness of it.
Another combo I like is You Snap The Whip, followed by Skin Sin and Lady Macbeth to top it all off. Seriously and mysteriously fruity!
