    Looking for a BPAL that Resembles a Favorite Perfume

    It's very possible it could be this (sCara used stock oils). I've never bought from FeMalediction's but you might go over to the thread here and I bet someone can help you. Good Luck.

    Western Diamondback

    I have a decant of this and just bought a bottle from a forum member. They are both different. My decant is sweet and missing the leather note. My bottle is sweet with a leather kick. Very nice! FYI: I'm the worst when it comes to reviews.

    Melisande, The Puppet Mistress

    A kind soul set me a empty bottle of this with enough to test in it. All I get in this is Jasmine ... none of the other notes. It is a soft sweet jasmine and it's really pretty. I have several oils with jasmine already so I won't be buying a bottle of the Puppet Mistress.

    Looking for a BPAL that Resembles a Favorite Perfume

    I would like to know that as well. That's the only Escada I really like and it's so pretty. ETA: I didn't see the answer before posting but personally Mata Hari smells nothing like Escada Collection.

    What do bottles and labels look like?

    Oh how cute! That was very sweet of the Lab to do that for all you will-callers. So how's the Poop? Is it a foody or earthy smell?? Inquiring minds want to know.

    Thanks quikslvr!! It's nice looking BUT I still like the old label better.

    OK, I got the pickle note in this one when sniffing out of the bottle and also when wet on my skin. Once it dried and sat for about 30 min it turned into this wonderful scent that's so hard to describe. I'm just not sure if I can stand waiting 30 minutes to get to the end results. The label is just lovely!

    Gingerbread Poppet

    GP 2007: I tried GP 05 awhile back and did not like it at all and swapped it off. GP 07 is nothing like 05. I think 05 was heavy on the nutmeg and that's what I didn't like about it. The nutmeg is present in 07 but not as strong which makes a huge difference. This bottle is a keeper.

    Midnight Kiss

    Very nice! This is a lot like Shango in ways and maybe a touch of Smut. I have bottles of all three and I think they are related.

    Chokmah

    This is like rootbeer meets snake oil. I like!

    Bien Loin D'Ici

    This is not a scent I would wear in public because it smells like marijuana (sp?) and that's the last thing I want to smell like. It is nice in it's own way and I have a full bottle so maybe I will just wear it around the house but have to make sure I won't have any visitors.

    Oooh I really love this one. I like jasmine as long as it's not really strong and in this it's not (at least not on me). This is like Al Azif (one of my favs) meets jasmine. Very pretty and lasts about 6 hours on my skin. I'm so glad I swapped for this. Thanks TWH!!

    Here's a pic of Beaver Moon 07 (sorry it's not that good, the picture not the label)

    Lush to BPAL scent comparisons (BNever included too)

    My summer SW sent me some HIWTK soap and a BPAL Imp of Cockaigne and the two are perfect together.

    Does anyone have a picture of Beatrice? The Gallery is down so not sure if one was posted there. Another GC with a picture label is the Great Sword of War ... right?

    Oooh I'm jealous Tramp!! Such purty labels.

    Anyone notice "A Lot of Lunacy" on the bottom of the label?

    The Music of Erich Zahn

    This smells like sweet pencil shavings. Not getting the curry like others. It's a nice scent, very different.

    Oh I love them!! I can't wait to get my set. I still like the older labels. Has anyone noticed the labels are sitting lower on the bottles? Especially Death of Autumn (in the Picture Gallery). I noticed that on my Crypt Queen as well.

    Crypt Queen

    I'm not good at reviews but I do smell the fruit, patchouli maybe a tiny hint of flowers & black pepper. Not sure what blood accord smells like. This may be in the same family as Mme Moriarty but it's not like Moriarty if you know what I mean. They are two different scents. I the smell of this in the bottle but not sure my skin chemistry is going to cooperate with this blend which makes me very SAD. It's close to that time of the month and my chemistry goes all wonky so will try it again in a week or so to make sure. ETA: The throw is good on this one and it lasted 8+ hours on my skin.

    It's the preppy BPAL! I can't wait to get mine! Thanks for sharing the picture, heysunshine. Oh yes, pink and green take me back to the 80's preppy scene. Please don't get me wrong but I really like the original 13 labels. They just look more classy. I still want to get a bottle though, to go with my collection. I like the four I have but my favs are the 1st & 2nd one.

    I read in the War review that there is a picture of a woman on the label?? I bet Macha is working her butt off ... all the new lab artwork, BPTP soaps and now her own soap company. I for one sure appreciate all her hard work but I'm sure she needs a much deserved vacation. Now, is there anyone out there that's wants to share her lovely new artwork with us??
