This a powdery cocoa stout-infused buttery biscuit. It's not buttery like Jack. It reminds me a great deal of the Cacao, Coffee Bean and Khus trio with added stout and golden butter.

Dead Leaves, Molten Lava Cake, and Raw Cacao
theredkilt replied to doomsday_disco's topic in Halloweenie
I strongly believe this blend needs to rest a couple of days before making an accurate opinion. I noticed some cacao sludge floating in the bottle, which is a good sign for chocolovers. The dead leaf note here is the bell pepper variety and i was afraid it was gonna clash with the gourmand cocoa notes. Thank God this wasn't the case. The molten lava cake note comes out stronger backed in the background by the dead leaf dusty crunch. Little by little i can smell the gooey rich dense texture of the molten lava cake sprinkled with some raw cacao powder around the edges. Really mouthwatering if you like your dark chocolate on the beefier side. After 4 hours i get a faint whiff of the dusty dead leaf (without any bell pepper residue) smudged in dissipating cacao powder. Very pleased with this blind buy ❤️❤️❤️ -
I get Embalming Fluid (EF) fresh on the skin, but after 15 min the blend goes in a slightly different direction as opposed to the regular EF. White Satin Hearse shows a sweet white leather vibe. It feels pleasantly polished. I can also pick up a white flower note, maybe lily of the valley??? and it tip toes close to laundry territory, but manages to stay in check. Overall it's sweet white leather bathed in the shadows of EF's aloe and white musk notes. I very happy with my blind buy.

Similarities Between BPAL Scents - GC and general discussion

no they're not. Western on my skin is a strong melange of brown leather and mentholated sage, like crazy SAGE. Snake skin is a completely different ballpark, kind of a leathery gourmand. -
Fruit-Chouli, Vanilla-chouli, Candy-chouli, Sweet-chouli???

The weed infused green amber is singing on my skin. It's got a tangy/sharp/ acrid bite. The milky marshmallow creeps up on the weedy green amber. I think the weed acrid edge wears off, but it's still hovering above the marshmallow milky goodness.

On my skin this brings out the white sandalwood, orris root, the dustiness of dead leaves and maybe some type of unidentified resin. I don't get any Snake Oil from this, but overall this reminds me very vaguely of King Cobra minus the frankincense.

2025 release: it's not what i expected I'd get judging from the notes. I get a strong fizzy labdanum with touches of tangy dried cherries and blackberries. The dry down doesn't sweeten up as time goes by. I wish some sweetness would show up....but no. 2025 release: it's not what i expected I'd get judging from the notes.

This one smells a lot on my skin like Kobold Barista. Like identical twins. -
The Great Battle of the Vegetables and the Fish

I can summarize this as refreshing, watery, a bit airy and fruity as in honey dew melon fruity. I'm pleasantly surprised that my blind buy paid off. I consider this to be closely related to the Shungas, even though the 2025 Shungas didn't bode well with my skin chemistry. -
2025 release The oil in the bottle looks murky. On the skin I'm greeted by the leather and snake oil spices. Little by little it's starting to resemble my 2019 decant of Snake Skin. The leather looses its chemical aspect and is weaving seamlessly with the snake oil components. After 3 hours of wear my wrist smells like a delicious butter toffee cookie.

Skin musk with a thin layer of honey lemon dust. The skin musk develops a faint sour facet on my skin.

This would fit in the HP Lovecraft serie of blends. Ambergris and salty foam. Very aquarium like scent. Reminds of a melange of Abe Sapien, Ogygia and Cthulhu.

This reminds of the Beaver Moon 2023 cheesecake with matcha tea.
