    Harvest Moon 2006

    When it's wet, I smell like apples and booze. As it dries, I smell more and more like a harvest yankie candle until its overpowering. I was hoping for something more herbal.

    Sea of Glass

    This scent didn't quite work for me. It is a light floral with a hint of citrus in the imp, but smells a bit dusty when I wear it.

    Somnus

    Somnus is a strong scent of lavendar, rosemary, and powder. I feel a bit like a granny when I put it on. Unfortunately, it hasn't done anything to help my anxiety-related () insomnia. I think I'll give the white light TAL a try.

    Greed

    Greed is one of my favorite BPAL scents. On me, it's like CK's Obsession with an extra earthy patchouli kick. It's an extremely warm, long-lasting scent.

    Athens

    When I tried this, I was hoping that the myrrh and flowers, but all I smell on my skin is a much too sweet honey. I might try layering this with a more spicy scent and see if that makes it wearable. 1/5.

    New Orleans

    The description is very accurate - it smells like strong-scented flowers blooming in the South, but just a bit past their prime. There is a slight swampy smell too, which evokes memories of Louisiana. This isn't a scent I'd wear every day, but it is interesting.

    Namaste

    wet: almost overwhelmingly lemony (Pine-Sol comes to mind), with a hint of patchouli dry: still smelling the lemongrass, but now I pick up more patchouli and sandlewood. Wearable (6/10), but not what I hoped for a Namaste scent. Being Indian, I'm a bit baffled by why lemongrass is in there at all.

    And There Was A Great Cry In Egypt

    Warm and delicious! At first, I get an overwhelming blast of resins and incense. But then it quckly fades to amber (reminding me a bit of Obsession) and then at last my favorite note, myrrh, comes out. While the scent is really light on me (such that I have to use a huge amount), it strangely last for a long time. I'll be ordering often .

    Orpheus

    Orpheus on me smells like dry herbs, musk, and a hint of greeness. I also pick up a warm note. But no floral on me at all. I have to slather Orpheus on to smell it, but once I do, it is a very soothing, subtle scent. Like a walk through crunchy dry leaves on a fall morning. It works well on both myself and my spouse. Definitely on the masculine side, but not overwhelmingly so. I'm really glad I ordered this scent.
