Yeah. This is perfect. I don't have much to add here, it's just exactly pancakes with boysenberry syrup. I'm obsessed. I can't live without a gallon of this scent. :D :D 6 out of 5

g-o-r-g-e-o-u-s. I am buying two more bottles. An instant must-have scent. I am a bit speechless right now, but this is just beyond perfect. Just like the precious Lilith B, this perfume is only going to get more beautiful with each passing day. What a gloriously flawless celebration!!! Love Love Love Lilith Victoria!!!!! 6 out of 5

Not as much of the fan of the super-buttery pumpkin note in this one....I got a faint whiff of leather when I first applied, but now I just smell sweet popcorn. Meh, not for me. 2 out of 5 ADDED Nov. 22: The pumpkin in this scent really sticks around, it's dominating the blend. Very much like pumpkin pie, buttery and warm. I can also detect the musk and a hint of leather. It's good, but very foodie. I guess I don't love pumpkin as a perfume, I probably shouldn't try Pumpkin Patches haha

At first, I really loved Pumpkin I. It is foody, warm, buttery, and the splash of fruit is fun, as is the hint of coconut. However, after a few hours, I just grew sick of it. It's a bit too foody for me - there's some baked-goods/bread/cake/pie kind of note that just gets cloying after a while. Love the Cabin Fever clip! I guess that's what it did to me, too, after a while : -) 2.8 out of 5

Weirdly precise to the listing of notes, Ichabod Crane starts out as a creamy wool and beeswax blend. After a moment, the lily-of-the-valley comes out and lends a lightness and clean spike to the other thick notes. This is fascinating and unique, but it's not really twanging my heartstrings.... 3.2 out of 5

Wow, this really is a perfect apple cider potpourri scent! It smells like every apple-cinnamon potpourri, air freshener, candle, etc. I've ever smelled. It's warm, beautiful, and churns up all sorts of autumn and winter memories. I'm not sure if I would wear this as a perfume, but if I had a bottle I would use it in an oil burner. 4.3 out of 5

Pine and dandelion. Accurate, but not as evocative as I expected. Maybe I'm just not in the mood for this? 3.5 out of 5

maple maple maple maple BPAL maple maple maple excuse me, *ahem,* one of my dreams just came true.... This tastes like an appley, mapley oatmeal. It's got a foody sweetness that is nicely shot through with crisp apple. I can also slightly detect the ambery hay note from Hay Moon. I like this, very fun! It doesn't smell like horses to me, though (I guess that's not really a bad thing). Hay Moon makes me think of horses more because of the stronger hay note. I do wish there was more maple, but I'm obsessed with maple so I don't know if I could ever have too much. (Can't wait to try the MVJBA Pancake scent whee hehehe) I want some trail mix now : -) Yum! 4.1 out of 5

I had forgotten the notes to this one before I slathered some on, on my way out the door, and I'm proud to say that I described it as "lightly honeyed rose" before reading the scent description : -) The honeyed cream is light and faint in the background, and the rose really dominates the scent. After 6 or so hours of wear, the honey and cream notes are more noticeable, because the rose eventually fades. It's a lovely scent, I'd have to be craving it to wear it again because rose is moody on me - but it is entirely befitting of its namesake. This is exactly what a young, fresh, classically refined girl should smell like! 4.4 out of 5

Chimera is delicious, but not because of the honeysuckle, which is only a slight touch and honestly I can't say that I even knew there was honeysuckle in there - because Chimera smells like resinous warm Cinnamon Buns of glory. Parthenope was a powdery jasmine/baby powder scent on me, and not noticeably honeysuckle. I vote very strongly for Eos, it's a bright, dripping-with-sunshine honeysuckle blend and it's quite beautiful - I gifted my best friend a 5mL, she looooves it and it's the only BPAL she owns. I also vote very strongly for Juliet, which is an incredible morpher depending on whether it's fresh or aged. When it's brand new, it has a crisp pear note and is a lightly fruity floral, but after it's aged for a year or two it's the most beautiful scent in the world on me - my BPAL GC holy grail. It's just fanstastic, highly recommended!!! Another wonderful scent is New Orleans, it has a lovely sweet jasmine note and the honeysuckle lazily swirls in beautifully. I very highly recommend New Orleans as well. I haven't tried Hermia, but after reading the description, I will be on the lookout for it! Same goes for Lolita. I remember liking Twilight, although for some reason I never wrote a review, so I can't remember whether it was awesome or just "meh, okay." If your mom likes lavender, try to find some aged Ode on Melancholy. It's a soft, gentle lavender, with beautiful wisteria, which smells sweet and pretty and has a similar quality as honeysuckle. My votes, in order of honeysuckle-ness, are: #1: Eos #2: New Orleans #3: aged Juliet (if you can find some) Have fun BPAL'ing!!!

I definitely smell the white rose, it's faint but pretty. The other notes smell interesting, albeit foreign to me. It's a nice blend, but it wouldn't make it into my rotation. 3.3 out of 5

Yum yum yum yum yum!!! I have only tried this and the original Lick It. The original had a soft vanilla under the peppermint. Lick It One More Time seems to have a deeper sugary vanilla note, almost like caramel. It's delectable!! I prefer the original, but this is also yummy! 4.2 out of 5

The citrus accord in Ides of March smells like orange blossom to me. It's a bright, fresh herbal scent, and I think women as well as men could definitely wear it. 3.4 out of 5

Mossy, dark-green floral. The notes that stand out to me are the floral notes, the moss, and the seaweed. It starts out more harshly green, then as it dries the peony and lily come out more. It's pretty, but it's a bit too high-pitched to be something that appeals to me personally. I'm super-picky with aquatic blends. 3 out of 5

This has that cold pine + lunar herbal feel that I associate with scents like Old Moon and Moon of Ice. It's actually so similar to Old Moon that I can't really tell the difference. I think this is because pine tends to amp on me. I wish I could smell violet. : -( It's very nice, but I don't think I would wear it again. 3.1 out of 5

Coolly minty, lightly musky, walk-in-the-icy-woods scent. This is hard to describe, but it is very pretty. It's delicate, and I think I can pick up on the pine and the florals - but then again, it's so well balanced and blended that it really just creates a wintery atmosphere. It is serene and calming. I think this could be magnificent when used as aromatherapy. I will keep my decant. : -) 4.3 out of 5

The lotus is gorgeous for the first 10 seconds, and then it completely disappears as myrrh overpowers even the sandalwood and amber. Seriously, it's single-note myrrh here. I must note that my imp is at least a few years old because of the label style, so I bet this is one of those BPALs that is much nicer fresh (florals sometimes go that way). As I've experienced it, I'd give it a 3 out of 5, although it would likely score higher brand new.

The lotus note in my decant is very faint and powdery, I'm not sure how age has affected this floral. There is an overall fresh sweetness to this scent, with a woody undertone. It's a classically blended perfume, and as such, isn't doing much to stand out to me. I will pass it along to a more loving home. 3.2 out of 5

In the decant, this is mostly lime/citrus. On the skin, the lime note softens into an almost blossom-like note. Also, the sugar note comes out. Later, the dry musk moves into the realm of sniff. It's fresh and crisp but soft and round at the same time. I can see why it has so many fans, although personally it's a bit crisp at the outset to be a major winner for me. Lovers of fresh, citrus, clean, and effervescent scents would be impressed, for sure : -) 4.1 out of 5

This starts out strong with the petitgrain, which is like neroli but greener. Then the musk comes out, and it is deeply powdery. This scent is kind of masculine, but I don't know how I feel about the powder.... My chemistry is not loving this so much! 2 out of 5

MMmmmmm wow.....Rose and incense! This is a sexy deep rose, and it takes a little while for the incense to show up. When it does, it's just a lovely combination! I could use this to get-it-on ; -) 4.2 out of 5

In contrast to the description, this smells fresh and clean on me! It's a lovely, soft, soapy scent, along the lines of Wensleydale and Dirty. Quite nice, I'm a fan! 4.4 out of 5

I don't know what is going on in my nose, but this smells sooo familiar to me! It's a sweet leather with....something....else....Is this the 'bamboo pulp' note from Sleepy Moon? I like it! 3.9 out of 5

Cinnamon, clove, vanilla, and pine sap. This is like a love child of Chimera, Shub-Niggurath, and Gingerbread Poppet. I have bottles of all 3, so I'm not tempted to nab a 4th blend of this type (trying to keep my hoarding to a minimum!), but if I didn't have a cinnamon/spice blend yet I'd be all over this. Yummy! 4.3 out of 5

At first, this is all orange. After a little drydown, the orange calms down a lot as it is joined by frankincense, lilac, and amber. It's an interesting combination that ends up smelling like powdery, orangey incense. 3.4 out of 5
