    Haven't been active here in a while, but I'm rekindling my luff of BPAL again after a hiatus of letting my oils just sit and languish in my cabinet.
     
     
    And I'm spreading the BPAL love - I convinced a coworker to start trying some, too. BWAhahah! (Along with Aromaleigh cosmetics.)

    Kitsune-Tsuki
    Tintagel (First whiff is "gift shop candles", after, it alternates between wine and florals. Nice.)
    Mantis
    Fae (Very bright, floral, but... not my style. Still nice, though.)
    O
    Tushnamatay (This one? Ordered a decant. I can't get enough of it!!)
    Leanan Sidhe (Similar to Fae - very floral, not entirely my style, though I like it.)
    Highwayman (Definitely not for me - swapped it over Naamah Darling's way.)

    Hi.
    My name is Bronwyn, and I'm a BPAL junkie.
     
    Scents I've tried:
    Lilith (yes, please! this one likes me.)
    Rakshasa - there is no citrus in this, yet I smell like a citronella candle when I wear it. Veto.
    Kathmandu - Nice and spicy. A keeper.
    Tushnamatay - ZOMG!!! Luff this. Luff! 5ml is mine! BWAhahaha!
    Fae - A little TOO unicorns-and-rainbows floral for me, and yet, the anise note likes me. It fades very quickly, though.
    Leanan Sidhe - Love the scent. It, however, does not love me very much. A passing fancy would be asking a bit much, I think.
    Coyote - I've tried it twice now, and it seems to be flip-flopping between good and bad for me. Huh.
    Tintagel - I like it. It likes me. Life is good. 5ml is on its way next order.
    Highwayman - A little too men's-cheap-cologne to me. Naamah, however, luffs it. So. Swapped~!
    Vicomte de Valmont - I really need to get the Boy to wear this one. Oh yes...
    Snake Oil - Nice, vanilla... oddly strong, though. Needs another try or three to reach a solid conclusion.
    Akuma - Nice, citrus and spice, but not really 'me'.
     
    I don't have the nose for all the individual notes in these, so the above reviews are about as poetic as they're going to get, really. More to come later as I go through more of my stash (and get my next order ). So.

    I've been eBaying my posterior off, trying to get my grubby mitts on LEs that I missed out on when they were live on the site (dang unemployment leaving me flat broke) -- I dunno if there's an etiquette on feedback from eBay to here and back or not [next on my list of things to do tonight - look that up] but... I'm aoineko484 on eBay - lemme know if I should be posting to something here (and a link, please - I'm hopelessly forum-nav-challenged of late; it took me 15 minutes to find the 'new blog entry' link!).
     
     
     
     
    In other news...
     
    Everyone's gotten their order but me! Wah! *pout* I want my precioussssss.....
     
    Ah well. It'll probably show in the next couple days. If not, then I'll email and ask after it. 'Cuz, well... WANT.
