Thx ever-so to all whom responded, very helpful. The wish is an extremely strong scent that will just stay on the skin of a friend of mine in England. A dear creature whom writes Gothic poetry and lives in a 16th century tudor in the country amongst pea fowl and all things wild and lovely. Dark, incensed, and sensual is her target vein. She seldom can smell whats on her skin, nor can others says she. It's magic! So I am trying to merely find her a potion that is the most potent to see if it will even work with her chemistry to any degree.

I think it's really going to depend on your nose and your chemistry.

 

Things that smell super-strong to me: Any of the scents that are predominantly mint, cinnamon, patchouli, rose, lemon, pine/fir, or civet. These are the ones that make me say "whew!" when I open the bottle, whether it's a note I like or not.

 

If you're talking more about longevity on skin rather than pure strength, again, responses will differ wildly. The longest lasting blends on me have been Snow White, Antique Lace, and Morocco - all musks (and I believe all white musks, though none of the descriptions list it specifically)

 

As for dark and sensual elements - my ideas of dark and sensual might not be the same as yours, so this might be totally worthless. Generally, I think of the spice, musk, leather, and incense categories as dark and sensual. I second the recommendation of Loviatar. I also like Depraved for going out on the prowl, but apricot/patchouli is definitely not for everyone! Sin is a spicy scent that's pretty popular; I also like Scherezade for incense, and I've already mentioned Morocco for musk (not particularly dark, but oh-so-sexy in my opinion).

 

It's very sad that Spanked was so limited, because it definitely belongs on my list of all-time sexy scents - to me it's like a spicier Loviatar.

For those whom are BPAL experts, what scent(s) be ultra strong? Like knock the spots off a frog strong. In the vein of dark and sensual for the elements.
