    Autumn Grove Atmosphere Spray

    How have I not reviewed this??? This is my favorite BPTP Atmo Spray...it smells just like the outdoors on a crisp Autumn afternoon. I don't smell soil or dampness...I just smell Autumn chilled air (with no mint thank goodness!), acorns and lots o leaves. Autumn Grove Atmo Spray and Marshmallow Pumpkin Bath Oil are tied for my favorites.

    Anthesteria Bath Oil

    Slightly sweet/syrupy Honeyed Grape, hint of wine, hint of Thyme on the dry down on my skin. This is SO good...YUM. layers nicely with Urd, Snake Oil and quite a few other oils...including the one that shares the same name Can I say it again? This is SO good.

    Polar Bear Plunge Bath Oil

    I was able to try this last year thanks to a wonderful forumite who sent along a small decant! Yup - Vanilla/mint. Icy. Yummy. Seems like it would be a great choice for rubbing in to sore spots too! YUM. So glad I got to try this!

    The British Blondes Atmosphere Spray

    This is very Golden! I'm so glad I got to try this - it is gorgeous! Sophisticated vaniila and amber...just lovely.

    Opium Tar

    I really wish the scent had stuck around longer because it is wonderful. If I could pick one of the bubbling bath potions to turn into a perfume oil or a bath oil or a room spray it would be this one. Fruity Opium Tar...delicious. But...no bubbles, no fizzing, barely any scent after it hit the water, and I have an uber-sensitive nose. Perfume oil or bath oil please!!!

    Glowing Vulva Bath Oil

    This is very creamy with a touch of Teak - wonderful as a moisturizer and decadent in the bath, but I prefer Castitas to Glowing Vulva...not exactly sure WHY - they both smell different (obviously) but similar enough for my nose to pick a fave out of the two. Still, great stuff!

    Exotic Bazaar Atmosphere Spray

    I LOVE this spray. I feel like I'm walking into a room/area where spice cookies are being baked, incense is being burned, and Gypsies are dancing! Magical! The name is spot on, and I am SO glad this is GC. Need a bottle, but need a job first!

    Unspeakably Evil Temple Atmosphere Spray

    Why do I smell VETIVER? Why? I love all of the notes here, and am so happy to have an atmo spray with moss in it since I love the smell but cannot wear it. But there's something off here...not evil, just off. Eh...it's ok if I don't really like one or two if the rest are amazing, right?

    Scrooge's Apartments Atmosphere Spray

    I have a decant of this and use it occasionally in the kitchen for something different. This has a very similar feel to The Decrepit House perfume oil...they don't smell similar, but they seem to have the same vibe going on. This is almost too much for my nose (I actually had to water it down a bit - I know, I know...) but it smells great after it has had a chance to calm down and adjust to the space. I cannot describe the scent - it is warm and cold at the same time, and the word Mahogany keeps popping into my head. Pretty good, and I will definitely use up my decant. Edited because scents DO NOT clam down. Nope...they just don't. I'm not dyslexic I swear...

    The Fainting Couch Atmosphere Spray

    This is my go-to spray for bedtime. Rose, orris a hint of black tea and I detect some lavender (maybe it's just wishful thinking???) in there as well. This smells SO good - very Victorian, very lush, very comforting. I'm glad to have a bottle of this, but I'm thinking it will go quickly!

    TKO Massage Oil

    Many things -- such as loving, going to sleep, or behaving unaffectedly -- are done worst when we try hardest to do them. Soothing lavender in a blend of skin-softening almond oil, rice bran, and vitamin E. Holy moly this is amazing! This really smells just like the perfume oil (a bit lighter, which is fine!) and is so wonderful to massage into my feet before bed. I wish I could have used this on my clients while I was a practicing Massage Therapist because it could have been so beneficial for so many of them. I have found myself reaching for this much more than the perfume oil lately...yummy and does the trick - I'm usually asleep about 10 minutes after I lay down. Great stuff!

    Castitas Bath Oil

    Sweet and creamy vanilla. This is one of the best bath oils I've smelled, but I'm a huge fan of vanilla. Great as a moisturizer (SO many scents go well with this stuff!) and delicious in the bath...more throw in the bath, but the scent lingers on my skin for at least 4 hours. So. Good.

    Fae Forest Atmosphere Spray

    This smells very similar to Elf perfume oil to me, but with more berries and sunlight if that makes any sense. Very foresty (with a bit of harsh pine in the beginning that fades to leave a bit of forest floor which is gorgeous).I like this one a lot - and how neat that it has Thimbleberry in it! That's my favorite berry! This would make an incredible bath oil...

    Ice Princess Bath Oil

    Creamy berries and honey. Very sweet - light throw but so good! Doesn't smell chilly to me at all - would be perfect for Spring/Summer and even Autumn...wish I could have bought a bottle - this would layer so well under many perfumes!!!

    Gingerbread Poppet Bath Oil

    I think I would love this if it was just a tiny bit sweeter...I love to eat gingerbread cookies, and this smells just like they taste, but I guess I don't enjoy smelling like them! Oh well...

    Egg Nog Bath Oil

    I totally agree that the Bath Oil is stronger/longer lasting than the perfume oil. I have used this as a moisturizer and love how it feels on my skin - scenting it lightly with egg nog which dries down to a slightly spiced creamy vanilla. Good stuff! Doesn't seem to go plasticky at all (my Egg Nog '2011 perfume oil does go a bit plasticky for the first half hour or so).

    Gula Bath Oil

    I thought I would love Gula but I actually can't stand it - makes me a bit sick to my stomach...must be the Caramel (which has ruined many an otherwise great blend on me - Red Lantern, Arrival at the Sabbath...) which is so sad...I wish I could handle caramel!!! This would be glorious!!! ETA: the nausea also comes from honey, so it must have been the brown sugar/honey/caramel combo. Funny, i love these tastes, but cannot put the bpal vs on my skin.

    Invidia Bath Oil

    Grapefruit, Tea, Lime, Jasmine...lovely. I believe this is Jasmine Grandiflorum (day blooming) but I'm not positive...it's one of the Jasmines that I typically don't enjoy, but it works here. The grapefruit is yummy and the tea gives it a bite then the Lime tangs it up and makes a wonderful blend. This layers really well under Whitechapel and also under Hungry Ghost Moon '06...I'm thinking it will also be great under Tanuki No Yudachi but I haven't tried that yet.

    Erebos Atmosphere Spray

    Lavender, melon and cyclamen. I love this spray!!! It IS mostly Lavender, but there is a touch of melon there with a greenish sparkling lift from the cyclamen. Very very nice...

    Marshmallow Pumpkin Bath Oil

    I honestly cannot believe that I haven't reviewed this yet. I bought 2 bottles as soon as it went live...and it is my favorite Bath Oil/BPTP product to date. Perfectly balanced, slightly spiced Pumpkin and Marshmallow. Smells identical to the perfume oil of the same name but seems to last longer on my skin. This is love in a bottle for me...as good as it gets.

    Bittersweet Chocolate Massage Oil

    This is just like the bath oil to my nose. Divine, scrumptious chocolate brownie batter. YUM-O.

    Bourbon Vanilla Massage Oil

    This is pure vanilla heaven in a bottle. Unlike the Bath Oil, I do not detect any sassafrass/sarsparilla in the Massage Oil. Earthy is a great word to describe this vanilla...almost edible-smelling, but sophisticated at the same time. Decadent.

    Looking Glass, Looking Glass Bath Oil

    Super Sultry Rose. This is glorious...I love it. I think it works better in the bath than as a moisturizer (goes a bit plasticky on my skin but not enough to prevent me from wearing it!) It borders on spicy, but it isn't. I don't know how to describe what I smell, but it makes me feel powerful, sensual and calm. Love this.

    Luxuria Bath Oil

    Orange, Red Musk, Pom and Patchouli. I could swim in this bath oil! I could honestly use this every day and wear a different Patchouli oil over it. As a moisturizer, I smell the Orange, Patchouli and Pom the most and in the bath I get more of the Red Musk than Patchouli. This is divine - reminds me quite a bit of Mme. Moriarty which I also LOVE.

    Bourbon Vanilla Bath Oil

    This is a glorious Vanilla until the sassafrass ruins it. I'm not sure where it is coming from, but it doesn't show up in the Vanilla Massage Oil. I will definitely use my decant - it is divine layered under Tombstone. I was just hoping for a straight up Vanilla though.
