any news on the notes in Blue Moon ?(whatever, I will order it anyway, but just curios )

I am deeply in love with this one. I got the imp last week and have been using it eversince.. Somehow it is the summertwinsister of my beloved Spooky, it's Spooky with a hint of lemon

Must be the coconut, cause I adore that note. Can it be it contains mint as well? when i put it on it gives a cold tingle on the skin for a while.

*adds on order list for a 10ml*

Old London is very tearose, lovely and pure

TAURUS

April 20 - May 20

A perfect blend! There is not realy a prominent note. As a late Taurus (20th of May) it is a scent that captures what I like in general. Heavy herby/floral with a good amount of lasting power!

The scents is a bit in the line of High John and Come to Me.

I have chosen this one for the name mainly, because my boyfriend is Moroccan and the many times I went there on holiday, I have really fallen in love with this beautiful country. The smell of the many, many herbs in the old Medinas are amazing, and with Old Morocco I was hoping to find it's scent captured in the bottle... and it did!!!!

In the bottle: nothing, like the bottle is empty,?????what is going on?

wet: well at least i can smell someting, sweet, faint but yummie

Dry: Oh my! this is great, soft, sweet, spice absolutly capturing the scent of Morocco.It seems to come out of my skin, and become stronger and stronger Somehow it smell like my favorite dish 'Pastilla' chicken with canelle, powder sugar covered with filo pastry.

I has great lasting power even it was so soft and faint to begin with.

after some hour it reminds a bit of Samsara by Guerlain (my old fav )

I story my imps together in a box and when i open it it smells mostly Blood Rose!

I thought perhaps the imp was leaking but it wasn't . I guess blood rose is the strongest scent in the box right now?

discovered today:

Wanton is a bit softer,but quite similar to Spellbound

Another to my favorite list!

For all the Bodyshop Dewberry lovers... this is the grown up, evil version of Dewberry.

Mouthwatering fresh and soft at the same time.

Good for spring and summer.

Also a light happy scent, good when you find lots of oils too overpowering. This stays very close to the skin.

I think I need to buy a 10 ml bottle because it fades very quick

This one brought memories of being a teenager.

I used to use a special facial soap from Israel to combat acne. The soap smelled EXACTLY like Julliet, very very soft and floral.

Somehow there is a bit of smell from the sea in there, a rocky coast with wet rotting salty seaweed. Maybe it's a false associaltion because the Israelien soap contained dead sea mud...

Cannot detect any pear.

It's a keeper for sure

Another favourite!

After liking Katharina so much, I put March hare on my wishlist and a lovely swap make the wish come through.

The abricot is strong in this one but it has a more masculine backtone with the clove. I would call it the male version of Katharina. When I say male i mean it fits also to the male side of a woman. Those days when you feel more manly comming out.

It smells like candles too, as my colleques remarked

to me some BPAL scents are more or less similar and I would like to know which ones you have found similar. This can help to find a scent you like even more with the same notes.

Oke, i stop babbling, here are some examples:

Snake Oil- Golden priapus

Katharina-March Hare-depraved -Tamora

Come To Me-High John the Conquror

Burial-Omen-Old Rome

Vixen-ravenous-lust

to some extend:

Blue moon and cathode (or is it because i store then togeter in the same drawer?

The above stated mention on the website makes sence to me.

Is stops newbies ( and me )from worries about teh order got lost etc, and will save a lot of e-mail clogging from people asking about the order process!

Lovely, soft! Has a good staying power

It reminds me a little of my other favorite scents High John and Come to me

Like other stated before, it´s too well blended to pick a single not.

This is a bottle in a next order! Can imagine this on a summerevening

Well, I put Snake oil up for swap because the bottle (5ml) will never finish. Got it end of Januari and it´s still about 90 % full. I used it quite much during the cold times.

Imp´s do last about 10-15 royal uses (except Embalming fluid, used it in 2 days )

Don't bother at price increases!!! You are still waaaayyyy better priced that the "Chanel bros' If fact for one bottle of Chanel 5 we get approx. 2 5ml and set of Imps!

Very happy to see the new scents as well... Just today finished with composing a little order

But the huge spring order will have to wait till the new scent are out.. MUST have Beltane

Thanks for posting this, there was already a speculation threat starting (look at BPAL chatter )

Zombi: not a friendly rose, but a haunted one!

#20 loveoil: On me it has a very red dry rose scent, not on everyone though!

12 imps and 1 5ml was 8 usd to Holland too ( got about 6 extra imps) so indeed this must be the basic fee and considering the extra´s beth put with it there is a bit marge in the weight.

thank you so much!

at least I can tell other people the right names now

I am figuring how to pronounce certain BPAL names

maybe if any phonetique specialist between us can clear these for me

Persephone...

Imp...

Samhain..

Bruja...

Aureus...

Hi Beth

I PM ed you as well about an opportunity in Holland

wonder if you got it?

I see it coming Beth!! your succes is already worldwide spread

This one is good enough to drink, it´s like sweet lemon sherbet ice.

unfortunately it fades soo quick on my skin. I was planning to use this in summer but with the heat it will not stay on my skin.

High John, soft but last all day

Blood rose

Persephone, sticky, sweet and long lasting(like it sometimes when in a sweet mood)

Snake oil

agree! Had to sign for it anyway because the parcel did´t fit the mailbox and everything you pick at the post has to be signed and show you identity card.

It´s in our own favor to sign
