  1. Light? On me this is all black tea, and it's definitely not light. I was a bit disappointed at first that it was all tea all the time. But then I started layering it with BPAL and it is brilliant! Skadi scented tea, rose red scented tea, othello scented tea.... This is my new go to body oil


  2. I don't really understand why I haven't gotten into Yules before. It does sound like it's more my thing than weenies. Thanks you guys! Peacock queen sounds like a definite purchase if it pops up again. And channukiyah - olive and Beeswax? Yes! Uh-oh now I'm all excited again. And I only just came down from my weenie high!


  3. I'm not new to BPAL. I've been around on and off for a few years now, but I always seem to miss the Yule update. I tend to get distracted by life once Halloween is over. This being my first year where I am actively stalking for Yules, I was wondering if any scents tend to turn up most years (like Samhain and boo turn up for weenies)? Are there any cult classics that I should be looking out for? And which would you recommend for someone who isn't a foodie fan (but will wear it anyway) and prefers woods, spices, 'green' smells, roses, lavender and other things one might find outside?


  4. Red currant, molasses, vanilla cream, moss, and patchouli.

     

    I get cream, brown sugar, and red fruit. A bit like expensive fruit syrup rather than real fruit. I like it. Not a lot of throw, though I applied sparingly and on my wrists rather than where I would normally put it.


  5. My apologies if this belongs more in the 'beyond perfume' thread but as I specifically want recs I'm thinking it might work here?

     

    Anyway, I would like to use BPAL to scent my house using an oil burner, some wax, and a few drops of BPAL. I know it's doable I just don't know what scents would be best to try this out with and I had hoped some experimenting forumites had given some thought to this already.

     

    I love wearing dark and moody scents but don't want my house to smell like that. Particularly now that spring is here, I'd like fresh, clean, spicy, vanillary, woodsy, citrusy (but that doesn't turn to toilet cleaner smell). I don't really want booze, or anything that smells like cookies or candy, or overly incensey or smoky. Bit iffy about milk or cream (but if it worked well for others then id love to hear about it) And although I LOVE coconut, I don't think I want coconut either. Unless its not a foody coconut and its something quite cool rather than creamy

     

    Please only GC scents. I would feel too guilty using the more expensive scents on a room.
