To me, it smells like honey and spit. lol. wish it smelled to me as lovely as it does to others...and its not just skin chemistry, i'm talkin in the bottle, too! off to swaps..

v 'o9 on wet, it smells incense-y and like old wooden pews, just like a Catholic Church mass, as the description says. on drydown it smells more woodsy and like resin. not a strong throw, but very pretty and smells just like the description. i will keep the imp to try it, don't know if I would get a bottle or not, because of how quickly it fades on me.

Mmmm....smells like a mix between brownie batter and hot cocoa mix....i need to keep from licking my wrist lol...very hunger inducing, not good if you have a sweet tooth or trying to lose weight haha. it truly is chocolately BLISS....i will def keep the imp to sniff once in a while, but it's such a tease to wear

very pretty delicate musky rose...so faint tho, have to sniff my wrist right up to it to smell it.i even spilled some on my hand is it was STILL faint, which is good, because it's not headache inducing lol. i think i would wear this scent on a date, right behind the ears and on the neck...where u can only smell it where you get up close very pretty and sophisticated scent overall

All i smell in this one is a green lavender. it's pretty and delicate, but i prefer incense-y scents though. and didn't last very long, i barely smelled it on me after a few minutes

i definitely smell patchouli and something floral...this one is very sexy, dark and elegant. love it!

Dried roses, rose leaf, Spanish moss, oakmoss and deep brown earth. Mostly I smell rose...not sure what else is in it, maybe it's the dirt people have been speaking of...in that case...i love dirt lol! this one is very floral, pretty and elegant. maybe its different with others' chemistry, but i wouldn't consider this a unisex scent, it's very feminine. i love it and would definitely consider buying a bottle

This is a very pretty, musky powdery vanilla scent with a good throw. It sort of reminds me of that men's cologne, joop, but maybe just a tad more vanilla which makes it more feminine, although I could see this as a unisex scent. I give it 4 out of 5 stars, very interesting and pretty. Plus I love the name, with Opal being my birthstone

one of my favorites!!! smells like vixen, but wayyy darker and sexier ))

This smells like what i would think a coffin would smell like, it's very eerie...i love it! It smells like the incense they have during church mass, with a depressing note to it. It made me feel sad. It's such a lovely, incensey/resiny smoky scent though. Definitely keeping it!

A jasmine honey musk scent...didnt care for it at first, smelled too jasmine-y to me, but now since it's dried down it's not that bad. dunno if i'll keep it though, not too crazy about it. It kind of reminds me of LUSH's flying fox, with a baby powder note.

Inspired by the tragic, ill-fated love of Queen Elizabeth I and the Earl of Leicester. This is our modernization of a 17th-century perfume blend favored by British aristocracy: rosemary, orange flower, grape spirit, five rose variants, lemon peel, and mint. smells like a generic grape candy, and completely faded on me in about 3 hours. it would be a nice scent for a younger girl, it's very sweet and youthful. not for me though. off to swaps or sales it goes!

if you love violets, this one is for you!! Smells like LUSH's Gratuitous Violets soap! I think it would smell good on an older woman, it's very floral and sophisticated. It has just a hint of rose in it. I think it would smell lovely on someone else, just not my style. 3/5. ADDED Feb. 20: too much violet for me! it's soft and pretty, just not for me. smells like LUSH's Bathos, if you like that, then this scent is definitely for you!

wet on skin: tobacco smoke, wood and faint flowers, interesting mix... dry on skin: the tobacco smell goes away, and it smells like faint flowers in an old wooden box. lovely only problem is, have to keep reapplying. only lasted about 3 or 4 hours

Marie smells like LUSH's Gratuitous Violets soap!

Wet on Skin: a lovely spicy clover musky scent, I love it! Dry on Skin: cheap cologne. oh well.

in bottle: holy jasmine! wet on skin: holy jasmine! Dry on skin: holy jasmine! i like jasmine, but as a note with other scents. unfortunately this one wasn't for me.

In bottle: a citrusy slightly floral mix, very delicate Wet on skin: holy citrus!! very lemony and grapefruity Dry on skin: Less citrusy, a delicate pretty amber scent. reminds me of a softer version of ralph lauren's romance. fades VERY quickly on me though, so off to swapping it goes!

in bottle: bitter almonds, and a green scent to it wet on skin: almonds, a grassy green scent, plus a tortilla type scent...can't really describe it, very interesting though Dry on skin: fades away within minutes to a barely there soft marzipan scent...i'm sure would be lovely on someone else, just not on me. off to swapping the queen goes...

in bottle: like strong rum and patchouli! very drunkening lol on wet: vanilla, patchouli and a powdery scent. a very pretty mix! i'm new to BPAL. this is the second fragrance i've tried and already seems to be working on me! on dry:very pretty, a soft powdery ginger patchouli floral...almost a food scent. i will keep this one! after 5 hours AND a shower!: a powdery musky patchouli scent...very lovely.

Hi! I'm absolutely brand new to the BPAL community, and i just receive my first imps and partial bottles in the mail today!! They include vixen, blood pearl, ophelia and pisces 2008.. I'm excited to start sniffing and swapping with others! )
