    This week

    Turning 35 was the WORST for me! I was constantly looking in the mirror and seeing all these fine lines and I would say to my husband "Honey do you see these wrinkles?" and he'd say no. I was so obsessive and I felt so old and I found myself thinking what the hell happened??? Don't get me wrong I am very happily married to the man I will love the rest of my life. It was all about me and all of a sudden feeling old and wanting to be 20 all over again. Now I am 38, each year after 35 has been good but what the hell will 40 bring? Oh I know, just my luck it will be .. perimenopause!

    Dia de los Muertos

    In the bottle: Floral Wet on skin: smoky floral Dry: still smoky floral but getting sweeter 30 min later: Heavens to murkatroid ... chocolate covered cherries!! Yummmmmmy! At first I did not like this one too much ... goes to show ya, you have to try this on your skin and let it morph through the stages. Also has a lot to do with body chemistry. ETA -06 Version

    The Candy Butcher 2006

    The lab says this is chocolate & heavy cream but in the drydown I detect something else ... something very sophisticated!! I just love this and plan on buying more before it disappears. By far the best chocolate scent I have tried.

    My very first review. In the bottle: Cedar & Pine Wet: Same as above with a hint of sweetness. Dry: Sweet, Dries down to a nutty, buttered, bloated sugar cube. I loved this soooo much and wore it for over a week with no problems. Then it turned on me. It became so sweet I thought I was going to hug the toilet. A friend recommended that I keep it and give it a try at a later date. I did and it was love all over again. The culprit that amped up the sweetness?? "That time of the month" ETA: 4/16/09 ... This is still in my top 10 list of all time favs. Such an unusual and comforting scent.

    Limited editions equivalents in the general catalog?

    What about Beaver Moon, is there a GC similar to it?

    Yeah, I went over and read about them and I'm gonna order both. They do sound yummy and I saw pics of the labels and they are so darn cute!

    Thank you so much for your help. I'm going over to read about the monster bait ones. Are they LE's?

    Gourmand - Foody Scents - General Recommendations

    Hi everyone, I am new here to the forum and new to BPAL as well. I did place an order and bought Midway & Elegba (based on reviews here). I am hoping for some recommendations on foody type scents. My biggest lemming is: Spooky but it sounds like Elegba is on the same line minus the mint and chocolate. Would love to hear from you.
