Is there anything similar to Yvaine? Nothing from the GC has jumped out at me so far.

Sturgeon Moon! Water, cucumber, lovely in baking weather, splish splash.
Sea of Glass! Ozone with an amber (?) drydown - like being by the sea on a super-hot day.
Numb! Hated at the time but it's the perfect 'baby powder in the fridge' scent.

The Lion sounds like it'll be bang on the mark then...
Interesting then that so many of the scents mentioned have amber in, because I didn't get ambe from any of them! Golden Priapus was lovely but in a "spicy vanilla walking through the forest" way. Spellbound was just overwhelmingly "little hippy shop that sells candles and sequinned skirts", and gave me a headache.
Baghdad sounds promising though. Not sure about dragon's blood as I don't think I know what it smells like.

So I've just tried Brisingamen for the first time and oh my GOD - this is the long-lasting, sexy warm scent I've been looking for since swearing off the other perfumeries and going BPAL. I assume it's the amber that's doing it - I'm not getting much/any myrtle or carnation (bleeegh) from it. So my question - which other amber scents are there that I should try? I have an imp of The Lion heading my way soon, but anything else?
Lush to BPAL scent comparisons (BNever included too)

For information, the limited edition 'Twilight' shower gel is basically liquid TKO.
