wow, when i first brushed this across my wrist and smelled it, the first thing i thought was "whoa, this is weird, but i think i love it." like everyone else said, it smells like roses and fresh turned dirt. or the way dirt smells after rain- roses, dirt and rain. i think it's very strange, but i love it. it's the most unique scent i've smelled from bpal so far.

i am a newbie, and i am not good at picking out scents. for instance, i've heard of neroli, but have no idea what it is/smells like, BUT i will say, whatever desire smells like on me, i LOVE it, and it is going to be my first big bottle purchase i am getting the warm musky vanilla smell that some people have mentioned, but with something deeper, and i dont know what it is. maybe patchouli? except usually i hate patchouli. but whatever it is, it gives it a nice duskiness, that makes it not very vanilla-y at all, but deeper and spicier. desire is the first bpal scent that has really wowed me.

i just re-tried this one after many months, and i still don't like it. unlike many people on here, i can't really pull out specific scents, but the smell in the vial is sickeningly sweet. after it dried, it DID smell better, but was still too fruity and/or sweet for my tastes.
