Vaporeon

This smells like the version of snake oil I don't like which has the richer, almost buttery quality I associate with aged snake oil? I can barely tell the difference tbh maybe a *hint* of leather and no cologne smell.

This is gorgeous. I couldn't pass up trying even though the whole rpg thing is of no interest to me. Sandalwood is one of my favorite notes but i usually find bpal sandalwood to be sharp and unpleasant or completely undetectable. This is beautiful sandalwood incense smoothed out so nicely by the creamiest honeyed saffron. The ti leaf is the perfect amount bringing this into shunga territory. 😍

I guess this can be considered a masculine smell, but i feel like my best self when wearing this. Its spicy and sweet. The longevity is great and blends into you in the drydown instead of just disappearing. When my husband smelled me he actually said " what the fuck is that" (in a positive way lol)

So freaking good. Like a less sweet Black Orchid Ughh I wish I could buy more i would use it every day

Love this. The spices are absolutely present and remind me of my super aged first ever imp of New Orleans from a long time ago. The jasmine is pretty and isnt overly soapy.

So powdery and soapy. Not sweet at all. Don't get any vanilla from this

Smells like musky jelly beans to me. Enjoyable.

This one is strong as heck. But once it settles down every note is detectable the whole time. It's snuggly worn leather with hay and sweet pumpkin. Im really enjoying it for outdoor autumn times.

Damn. I got this when it first came out and it was super patch heavy. I destashed it bc i dunno marie kondo or something and regretted it. New bottle: no patch just an insanely light fig note with vanilla. Whyyyy

I managed to grab an older bottle and its just how i remembered it. Im not letting this one go again

I had a bottle of Goblin once that was pretty close to a patch single note with the faintest hint of coconut that i liked okay. The bottle I just got is awesomely balanced patch with coconut with tons of sweet benzoin. I loooooove it. It remimds me of a commercial perfume but way cooler

Teamama is right, vanilla really is king here, beautiful. I put off trying this so long bc fruit blends are the one thing that scares me, but I was so wrong. The red musk balances the sticky sweetness so well and the fruit notes work well with the amber and vanilla. Im im absolute love 💘

For sure a dusty smell.  It melds a bit as time goes on but ultimately i just get a less good Voodoo

Hmmm. This is def oudh. Its such a weird smell, but I find it kind of addictive. It has the slightest mentholic edge but isnt sharp at all. I Like the way it plays with the vanilla, i find it really smooth. I love it, but im also a little grossed out. Go figure

*** i got a second bottle of this that just doesnt have that oud smell. I like both but wth

Beautiful, an instant fave. Way more vanilla than i was expecting and such a mellow vetiver. It reminds me a lot more  of a more mellow Solstice Scents Manor than any Bpal I've tried. It doesnt strike me as similar to Unicorn and Ram or any of the others really  

Damn the oud when is this wet is SCARY sour and smelly. But once it chills out a little it blends into the sugary lily. Not too intense and super weird. I really like it, im glad i didnt give in to my urge to immediately wash it off.

A little smoky and floral, a little dry, but also smells alive, like nature. I absolutely love this. I find it gives me true pleasure to wear, maybe even having a millon scents I was in a bit of a rut!

The drydown of this is so pretty, cool, and creamy. But damn that mandarin opening is painful. I also don't detect at at least half the notes, definitely no smoke, leather, jasmine or rose

Love this. Not too smokey incense a little creamy, a little rosy, not sharp at all. Cathedral and midnight mass dont really do much for me, this has more depth

Bleh. I have an old imp of this thats complex and deep with cinnamon. The bottle i got recently is not similar at all, sharp and biting with no spice or anything resembling decay, similar to Eostre. 

I get mostly sweet and salty vanilla-musk with a hint of rose and wood. The longevity is much better now than when I first got it and I like it much more.

This almost reminds me a lot of a lighter inez with rose instead of carnation

2007 bottle: Oh man this is so good. It goes on really chocolaty then I smell coffee, then cinnamon sugar. Very realistic smelling and smooth. And as a barista of almost ten years the smell of coffee has the potential to get old FAST to me. This brown sugar note is so soft, never sharp this is the first time I've smelled a blend with sugar and it hasn't detracted from the experience.

I think this scent is really good, its smooth and soft and complex, a little woody, a little sweet. But unfortunately I only smell those things when I smell it very closely. Otherwise I can't shake the impression of cantaloupe!- not a fruit I enjoy. Lol hopefully this passes.

Very leathery. It smells a lot like The White Rider with a little sweetness behind it. Juniper, I miss you. come back.

2011- yayyyyyyy it opens strongly leafy and stays there for awhile. Then it mellows a but and and becomes Velvet-esque with delicate mint and musk lending a slight chilliness, very subdued and complex. How people describe Zorya Polunochnaya as ghostly and ethereal, this is that for me while she is just an okay amber. Im in love

Oh boy this one is just way too much for me. Super sweet and overwhelming cloves. Disappointing, I dont get any cedar or anything resembling dust. I prefer The Wild Men of Jezirat Al Tennyn for a clove scent thats way more complex and doesn't give me a headache.

2021- i got a bottle again and i really love it now

Every tea like and less overwhelming than i remember
