I agree that this is like a divine mashup of Woman Putting on Her Stocking + Snake Oil. Delicious coffee and snake oil! Can't go wrong.

love love love love love!!! I am a BPAL champagne lover and this is such a good iteration. It's the fizzy champagne note I love, plus slushy lavender. Dries down to a nice snowy musk. Works as both a daytime and nighttime scent.

It's perfect, it's beautiful, it smells like Linda Evangelista... In all seriousness, to me and when applied, this smells exactly like sitting in Cafe du Monde with a huge plate of warm beignets and a cup of hot chicory coffee. I love it.

You know, I think the description of this scared me off, fearing too much “honeyed”. I’m grateful for reviews here because once I started seeing words like fizzy and cola and champagne, I had a feeling I would love it. And I do! It’s a very interesting and complex sent. There are notes of fizz, laubdanum, and a bit of the toasted sugar. It also gives off a little bit of incense, which must be the resins. It’s gorgeous.

Love this one. It’s like the Sufganiyot version of Four and Twenty Blackbirds. Tasty tangy blackberries and pastry.

This is nice!!! Not to call out other fragrances but this reminds me of a fizzy champagne version of the old Body Shop Dewberry scent. The Pomegranate is tart and the fizzy champagne balances it well. The Loukoumi I assume is adding a slight candy note as well. Really like this!

This is so good. It's what it says: pancakes when wet, drying down to a soft absinthe with a little hint of pancake. It's really perfect and I may need a backup bottle.

This is incredible. It's got strong throw and smells like a Pumpkin Butterscotch candle. I don't get a lot of ale but I do notice the slightest hint of "wooliness" which is probably the blanket. I do get a tiny bit of steeped tea, too, even though that's not in the notes. Real glad I blind-bottled this; got compliments all day while wearing.

Golden Peach and Butterscotch Soda
frizzlechicken replied to doomsday_disco's topic in Event Exclusive Oils
This too was exactly what I'd hoped and exactly what it says: it's a gorgeous bright peach with the Lab's butterscotch note - sort of like the non-weed version of Meemaw's magic purse candies, if you liked that one. I love this. -
Everything I hoped it would be: the lab's fantastic lipstick note, plus peach. It's like the summery version of Black Lipstick or Coquette Red. SO GOOD! I knew I'd love this.

Buckle up, because 2025's Hungry Ghost Moon is a wild ride. I love pizza, so this entire lunacy was exciting to me. I can already tell some of the duets are gonna be bangers, but I've yet to fully try them. But Hungry Ghost Moon! Stick with it because the initial sniff is nothing like what lurks in the shadows. When first cracking open the bottle, it's strong. What hits you is a loud POOF of herbs and, basically, tomato sauce that's just been spread onto the pizza dough prior to baking. I am not going to lie, it's a little off-putting, and I wondered if my love of pizza had led me astray because I don't actually need to smell like a pizza, you know? So I dabbed a little on carefully, in case the smell of sauce was going to overwhelm me. But on skin, with minutes, this scent takes off! It blooms into a lovely and gentle floral with a slight honey-bread note. As time is passing, a the floral note takes on a tropical feel, and there's a little bit of musk. It's really, really great and I'm looking forward to layering it with the corresponding duets. I also agree with the above reviewer that this is a perfect summer-to-fall scent.

Be not afraid! You won't smell like an actual bundle of asparagus wearing this. It's a bright, happy, zesty lime, at first almost skittle-like when wet with a slight fizz, then drying down to a gorgeous green/plant-like memory. A perfect summer or warm-weather scent.
-
Wow I love this. I’m not sure what’s brick and what’s the rest, but the overall effect is clay, fizz and something summery - I assume the tequila sunrise ingredients. I worried this might smell like Tequila! but that’s not the case at all. I think I’ll be reaching for this a lot during warm weather.

Vixen Red is wonderful. cherry, velvet rose, and the vanilla bean wax are all there and lovely. As it dries the "lipstick" note I love comes to the forefront, but it's light and springlike as opposed to Black Lipstick which has a heavier note to it (which make no mistake, I LOVE.) Vixen Red is like the warm-weather cousin to that.

This smells very vintage! It definitely evokes an ancient cosmetic. On application I can pick out the oud, rosewater and vegetable waxes. As it begins to dry down the floral (narcissus?) waxy notes remain, in a good way. It gently fades to just a light wax scent. I'm gonna say something weird, but if you like the smell of a fresh box of famous-brand crayons (and I do) this is giving that as well. Lovely and very, very interesting scent.
