Okay, so my current favorite fragrance of all-time (on myself) is Moonlight Path from Bath and Body Works (I'm waiting on my first BPAL order to arrive, so the top spot may change once I start trying different things). For those unfamiliar, he's a summary of the scent:
Fragrance Top Notes: Bergamot, Lavender, Mandarin, Coriander
Fragrance Mid Notes: Rose, Jasmine, Violet, Tuberose, Ylang, Lily of the Valley
Fragrance Base Notes: Sandalwood, Vetiver, Oakmoss, Vanilla, Amber, Musk
I absolutely adore how this scent blends with my body chemistry, and would love any recommendations of BPAL scents I should focus on for my first few orders. I'd love to never have to step foot in that store again, because I just get a headache from the overwhelming clash of too many smells all at once.
As a general note, I love lavender, bergamot, coriander, and musks normally. I tend to avoid super-sweet smells, as they make me slightly nauseous and tend to cause headaches. Thanks for the help!!

In the bottle - Honey. All I get is honey.
On me, wet - Yup. Honey. This is like I just stuck my hand in a beehive and brought it out all nice and coated with honey. If I sniff *REALLY* hard, I can get some amber and a hint of vanilla, but it's overwhelmingly honey. Really wanting to love this since I had to decide between ordering a bottle of this, Dorian, or Snake Oil, and I know I already LOVE Dorian.
On me, dry down - Dry down is showing promise. Amber is coming out to play and changing this to a much more musky smell, which is a huge improvement IMO. Honey-musk....interesting....
On me, dry, several hours - Vanilla-honey musk. Okay, I like it. That's a lie. I LOVE it. I may even love it more than Dorian, which I am already planning to keep a lifetime supply of. This is incredibly fabulous and totally sexy.
