I will preface this by saying that I had to wash it off after a few minutes, as I was having a reaction to it (throat irrigation and coughing) that lasted a few more hours after washing it off. That's a rare thing with BPAL and me, but it happens. Initial impression: scorched, biting, almost fir-like (pitch?) and almost cloying. Yes, there's leather underneath. Sweet cloud of incense and labdanum rolls in, enveloping it all. medium+ throw

very nice pumpkin - salted (as one would caramel), which isn't bad, but edges it towards sweeter and foodier than I typically wear medium+ throw, good wear length as it wears the paper note comes out, turning things a bit yellowed

Crow Moon: Dried Fig Root and Vetiver
Roogna replied to doomsday_disco's topic in Duets & Menage A Trois
sweet fig low throw unsure on vetiver...more soapy than vetiver, especially over time -
wow super sweet like fruit stripe gum with that hint of powderiness that comes with stick gum great fruit choice very summery
-
goes on sour. I've had a few suede/leathers be sour, and that's the only thing that makes sense, but it could be something else since I get leather separately on drydown Then the leather note comes into it's own AS leather. It's a yellow-brown suede/leather low throw. doesn't last too long on my skin.
-
I also get the Dead Leaves note when first sprayed, and it's not a note I'm a fan of. It does seem to fade and let the leather and pumpkin ride high, but then it all disappears
-
Wow. that is some strong brandy. The brandy alone has a heady throw. Think like Vicks powerful, but smells like brandy. As it dries it turns more mossy and woodsy, with the brandy underneath keeping it kinda sweet
-
I tried this for the leather, of which is understated there's some sweet brandy I can't wear anything "rose", as my skin amps it to headache levels; I was hopeful here, since this was on my hair, but no. Rose is absolutely the dominant note. Not headache levels (thankfully), but not a scent I'm fond of through association. brandy and rosewater strong, maybe some leather, but not enough for a leather lover I'm not sure what velvet is supposed to smell like
-
very orange chemical (not real orange, but also not "cleaner"). turns to powdery incense with hint of orange
-
BLACK SESAME! wow. that is STRONG. heavy-handed, even maybe some clove? almost has a sour note underneath no leather just a whooooooole bunch of sesame for hours. practically a single note I tested a tiny bit on my wrist, but it goes a long way
-
sleepy lavender, sweet fig, and a touch of cedar. The fig is....weird. As it wears, less lavender and fig, cedar is very soft, throw lessens.
-
pink pepper is sweet AND peppery, the clove is underneath, adding umph to the peppery, as it dries it almost has a campfire wood smell
-
green, watery... plant water, hint of "perfume". Yes, do get "spa" from this but it's way to green for me. I'm glad my LMT doesn't smell like this, but I expect it's an improvement for an orc lol
