    Te Po

    After reading through the reviews of this scent, I realised that I'd made a mistake in not ordering it before the Tiki scents went down so I had to wait patiently to finally try it. Wet in Bottle: Somewhere between Cherry Coke and Dr. Pepper. Wet on skin: I get a light throw of the lime, but it stays fizzy cherry cola. Drydown: Fizzy church incense. Hours later, it still has the fizzyness to it and the scent has gotten even deeper and more incensy. Overall, I love this scent.

    Delousing Powder

    The first thought that I had opening it up was that it smelled like Ivory Soap after you put it in the microwave.[1] It smelled fabulously clean, and I didn't get the same powder overload that Noumenon did, just clean, clean, clean. It's wearable, most definitely. Odriana [1] When you microwave a bar of Ivory soap, it foams in a majestic way. I did it in the name of SCIENCE! (for an explanation go to: http://www.chemistry.org/portal/a/c/s/1/fe...f06ed9fe800100).

    Wanton

    In the bottle: oppressively floral and sweet Wet: Putting it on calms the sweetness and you end up with a deeper floral scent, the sandalwood and roses are front and center and you get a bit of depth, which i'm guessing is the patchouli. Drydown: I am sensing each of the scents individually the rose, sandalwood, and patchouli are seeming to alternate with each other. But it's very pleasant, there's a lot of complexity, and I like that. The patchouli is, as with most BPAL scents using it, simply providing depth rather than making me smell like a total hippie (which makes me wonder if i'd like the single note better than what I wear when I *do* wear patchouli). After a few hours: the scent is powdery sandalwood with the patchouli providing depth to the rose scent. It's maintaining complexity. I would wear this more for evening (I wore it to the office to give me plenty of time to see what it was going to do), as it certainly has that kind of sensability to it. -Odriana
