in the vial, Alice smells like.....well, like slightly soured milk. thankfully, once applied, the soureness disappears into a spicy sweet carnationy scent. like all the carnation-based scents i have tried, the smell of the carnation overrides all the other tones. i can feel the powederiness of the rose (note i said feel and not smell.....this aspect of the scent is untterly tactile); i can barely smell the honey in the background, which is a shame because i love honey. in fact, i may layer it with O to boost up the honey. all in all, alice is a sweeter version of maiden, one of my favorite BPAl scents. i like it, but not enough to buy a big bottle.

on me, O smells like honey.......and nothing else. the amber gives a colour, rather than a smell, making it a perfectly golden scent. i love it. it's comforting, sexy and unlike snake oil which screams for attention, O is understated in the sense that it doesn't travel away from my body, but stays very close to it. like a very thin, golden shroud. the layering potential of this scent is high. i can totally see myself layering it with bitter scents to make them sweeter, thus more suited for my skin. it would make an excellent body lotion as well. it reminds me of the under-scent in lush's butterball bath bomb.

hey, me too! i have a 16 hour day on monday (event planning for international women's day). i am thinking of chesire cat, because it is citrusy and bright, and can probably keep my energy up. p.s. i am not really frustrated, i just really like this emoticon!

i'd go for shadow. love that cedary smell.

arrrrrgh! that "guest" post was mine (oceandessa) i am not sure what's going on with the site.
