    Skytyping with Chemtrails

    Skytyping with Chemtrails is even better than I imagined it to be. It helps that I love lemon and white musk, but really this is the perfect spring/summer scent. It's a sweet toned down lemon on me, nothing sharp or soapy about it. It's like rolling around in a bowl of lemon candy.

    The Harp of Cnoc I'Chosgair

    Darn, this is probably the most sexy scent I have ever tried. All I really smell is spicy vanilla so far, but then it just came out of the mailbox a half hour ago. I don't get any flowers from this, which is ok with me. Not that I don't like flowers, but I can always use a good vanilla. I'm not getting a lot of throw. For me it's one of those get up close and sniff me scents. And sniffing is all I've been doing since I put the Harp on. It's so gorgeous!

    Banshee Beat

    Thanks to Nightchylde I have a decant of Banshee Beat. It's one of those scents that I wasn't sure about and didn't order, but should have. I love the patchouli and vanilla notes in this. I'm not sure if it's the hemp or the patchouli, but it has a warm, earthiness that is different than any of the many BPAL scents that I own or have tried. It kind of reminds me of Morocco, but warmer and sweeter. It's a sexy, cozy scent that I wish Space 21 would keep in stock so more people could try it.

    Chaste Moon 2010

    Chaste Moon smells completely different than I expected it to. I thought it would be more creamy, and I'm sure '05's was, but I haven't tried it. At first when wet, it's sharp and I almost want to wash it off. Then after a few minutes the flowers and cream mix and it's a gorgeous blend of Spring flowers. It's feminine and makes me want to dress in pink, put my hair up, and go outside and pick some daffodils. I can't tell exactly what kind of flowers I smell in this, but they're pretty and I would love to have a bouquet of them for my dining room table.

    Liz

    It took me a while to decide that I just had to try Liz and finally ordered a bottle. Why did I wait so long? This scent is so perfect! Its the best mix of vanilla, flowers, and barely there leather. I'm a dummy for waiting this long. It lasts really long. I put some on after my bath and could still smell it in the morning. It has some good throw, and almost smells like a soft, sweet vanilla ozone, but not harsh the way ozone usually is on me. My Mom's puppy loves it too. She brought her seven week old chihuahua puppy along over to watch a movie last night, and he was attached to my arm for most of the movie, 2012, humping it! Isn't he too young to be so horny? Mom said he must really like my perfume, and my husband likes it too. I never expected it to be a male aphrodisiac, but it is. I love Liz!

    Golden Priapus

    The lab must have known I've been wanting to try Golden Priapus and sent a frimp in my last order. Thanks! I can see understand why this is considered masculine, yet I love wearing it and should get a bottle soon. Its such a soft pine/vanilla blend and so sexy. I have to get my husband to try it. He's usually nice about trying oils on for me, but I think he would really like this one. Its a great scent that could be worn for work or anywhere.

    Pink Mood

    When I first put this on it smells exactly like the licorice candies, Good n Plenty. As it dries I get more vanilla and its a nice sweet vanilla. The anise becomes part of the background. I can't seem to find any cherry blossom or neroli, but that's ok because I like the sweet licorice scent I get from it. After its on for a long time I can smell some cherry, but only a hint. Its a fun scent.

    Autumn Moon of the Mirror Stand

    Its been over a week since I first tried Autumn Moon of the Mirror Stand, and its changed already. With the first try it seemed a little sharp, so I tried it again after letting it settle and now its gorgeous. Its a very rich, deserty type scent, but not really foody. More like an imaginary desert that you wish you could taste, but it doesn't exist anywhere except on your wrist. Its has a sexy quality. All the notes blend seamlessly into this perfect scent. I get a little bit of smokiness from it that makes it seem mysterious. I'll admit, I'll probably need a few more bottles of it.

    Womb Furie

    For those who like O, you're going to love this. To my nose its a dirtier, sexier version of O. Nothing like a little Womb Furie to heat up the night. The Snake Oil gives it a bit of spice, but otherwise I smell honey, and I love it.

    Thoos

    I guess I'm one of the people who white musk works well on because I love Thoos, and the tangerine just makes me love it more. I can't wait to wear this when the weather gets warmer.

    Penis Admiration

    I like this way more than I thought I would. Its light and pretty. Its a little creamy, but I can smell the lilac and vanilla. I actually really like it, but what do I say if someone asks what I'm wearing? Of course I'll have to tell the truth, so it could go like this: "that's right boss, its called Penis Admiration", which would be ok since my boss is a woman. If you like the notes in this its definitely worth trying.

    Where is this scent?

    The Red Queen is a GC from the Mad Tea Party collection. It's about halfway down the page. Mad Tea Party Thank you. I looked there and totally missed it before.

    I have an imp of The Red Queen. Does anyone know where to find it? Thanks.

    Are bpal blends all-natural?

    Jayne, I think its all about taste, and where else can you find so many different scents that are affordable enough for anyone to try? I don't think it matters if BPAL makes the oils they use. I paint and certainly don't make my own paints. I could, but why would anyone want to waste the time when they could focus on mixing what's already there? And I happen to like Velveeta. I use it in some pretty good recipes, and after you've tried some BPAL you'll most likely find some that are perfect for you along with some that don't work at all.

    Black Death

    I was a bit nervous about ordering Black Death, but its the one I like the best as an individual scent. It smells kind of like root beer on me, definitely a dark and sinister blend. I love it when the clove comes out as its drying, but other than that none of the other notes jump out. Its very well blended, and I'm happy I took a chance on it. Love it. Edit: As its drying, it reminds me of Knick Knack, which I love but only have an imp of, so I'm even more happy to have this.

    Black Heart

    Black Heart smells like mostly grape and sweet pea on me. I like it. Its soft, sweet, and pretty. Its going to be a nice spring/summer scent. The vanilla seems to come out more as it dries. I haven't tried the three layered yet, but am really enjoying them individually right now.

    Werepuppy

    Werepuppy smells a lot like Stinky, but works better on me than Stinky did. I think the baby skin smell is apricot, and that note just doesn't sit right with my nose, but here its not as dominant, so I can wear it and enjoy the other notes in the scent. Its nice, and the label is so adorable.

    But Men Loved Darkness Rather Than Light

    I'm wondering why I waited to get this now instead of with my first Yule order. Its so resiny and spicy. Kind of like a smoother version of Sunbird. I love the clovey smell of it, and should have gotten two right away. Its one of those scents that keeps your wrist glued to your nose, so not a whole lot of throw, but complex and beautiful.

    The Black Temple Burlesque Troupe

    I am so happy that I recently ordered a bottle of this. I wasn't too sure when I first tried the decant, but took a chance anyway. Now that the decant is aged a bit its awesome! It a soft, spicy chocolate with just the right amount of throw. Love it!

    Black Lace

    12/2009 Version: Oh my gosh, I really think I like this new version better than my aged bottle of Black Lace. It seems to have more vanilla and cognac, which to me interprets as warmer than my older one. I could sniff this all night. It smells like the difference between using pure vanilla extract instead of immitation vanilla for baking. I'm not sure what else is different about it, but whatever it is its GOOD.

    Whirling Wind Moon

    This is a complicated scent and I'm not sure how to review it. When its first on its like a blast of cold wind, but with the musk warming it up. It isn't ozone, but reminds me of walking outside on a cold day and taking a deep breath of fresh air, and then smelling some flowers that survived the first few frosts. Its pretty and I'm betting its going to get better with age. I still don't get how Beth can make a scent smell warm and cold at the same time, but she can and it does that in this scent.

    Playing with a Loaded Gun

    I really like Playing With a Loaded Gun. It smells a bit similar to Diary of a Teenage Cannibal, although I don't see any notes in common. Ginger musk likes me and its sweeter than I expected it to be. I don't smell rooty ginger here, but more of a candied ginger. It lasts long and is fairly strong (plenty of throw), so it doesn't need to be slathered to get the full effect.

    Persephone

    Persephone is a total shock scent for me. I would never have guessed that pomegranite and rose could smell good coming from the same bottle. For the first hour this is inyourface almost offensive, but as its trying to dry (which it never seems to do completely) it calms down and smells much better than anything with rose usually does on me. The rose in here isn't taking charge the way it normally does and that's a good thing. It would be a good going out to dinner scent. Pretty.

    Gold Phoenix

    Gold Phoenix is the perfect name for this scent. It smells gold of course, but other than that its lemon, orange, and I don't know where this is coming from, but ozone. Or maybe that's just the verbena. This isn't what I would call lemony. Its almost orangy; sort of a fresh golden scent. Fades fast, but pretty while it lasts.

    Hod

    Hod 2009 Wow! I understand why this scent is so loved. I tested it right out of the mailbox because I'm too impatient to wait for it to warm up, not that it needs any warming to smell great. So, this is carnations? I am impressed. I have always liked the smell of carnations but never really tried wearing them, except for a few other BPALs with carnation. Its so un-flowery and spicy, and warm, and sexy. I smell some clove and maybe some vanilla, but other than that none of the notes are overwhelming the others. Love it!
