    Blood Rose

    A nice, chewy red rose with wine. I can't get enough. So sanguine & luxurious. lol

    Event Horizon

    This scent takes me & my wife way back when we first got together. I don't recall how I obtained it, but I had a small black bottle of Donna Karan perfume. She put it on all the time. & Event Horizon smells just like it. I love it so much.

    Black Amber, Oakmoss & Terebinth

    This one is a beautiful floral male scent on me. Blew my hair back, & made me have a Fabio moment when I smelt it. That's how masculine I felt. Ha! They all sing together so nicely. Wish I had bought 2 bottles.

    The Forest Reverie

    Smells strong, but I love it. Can't pick up too many notes, but I do smell the grape vine & forest. Going to be a great male scent for me.

    Mama Gein

    This smells so light, & airy. Doesn't seem to last long on me. but that's okay, because I love putting it on! Smells exactly like the description, but also smells a bit like frankincense & bee's wax.

    The Madam

    Hope it's okay to comment again on this. The Madam is aging beautifully. Smelling more powdery & a hint of Earthy roses, nice & mellow. Wasn't worn much before, but I love it now!

    Bette Noir

    Nice sweet plum, dark berries, & orange blossom. Benzoin & Bergamot give it an interesting twist. It's a sultry scent. The myrrh comes out last which makes it sort of light faded incense on me. I see dark nights & city lights when I smell this.

    Yorick

    Dry, dirty in a good way, smells leafy, barely a hint of floral. As it dries the floral does come out a bit more. Nothing too notable for me about this one, doesn't stay around long either. However, I do layer it with Fenris Wolf often, & enjoy it that way.

    Hyakki Yagyō

    My favorite of all BPALs I've ordered. I have only a dribble left, & have retired it to a special box for keepsake. Smells divine. Strong cloves, & hearty coconut are the first impression, then slowly musk & champaca. It turns almost incense-like on my skin with a loud clove top. Musky, warm, green & black colors come to mind when I smell it. If anyone has a bottle please contact me. I would love to buy it. ?

    Sweet Patchouli, Labdanum & Ylang Ylang

    So simple, yet complex, & smells like a designer perfume. The Ylang -Ylang plays so well with the Sweet Patchouli, adding more sweetness & depth, while the Labdanum adds some powdery dimension. Fresh & clean, almost smells like an old time aftershave too. I'm in love with this one.

    Wicked

    This is a strong one. I get jasmine & rose first, then followed by myrrh. It has a green smell to it as well. Think I'll wear this during late Summer or Fall.

    Evil

    Fell in love with the imps so I got a full bottle. The opium tar, kush, & ambrette seed is what I get most. Such a delicate, yet imposing scent. I do feel like an evil Queen in a tower, or a witch from a fairy tale wearing this.

    #20 Love Oil

    Definitely herbal, & green. That is totally my thing. haha These kinds of scents tend to mellow out softly with my skin chemistry. I think I smell Lemongrass. & possibly ylang ylang. Not too sure on that, but that's what I get. It's bright, camphorous, & clean.

    All Night Long

    I get Red Hots candies right out of the bottle. So much so that I was afraid to put it on, also seeing someone said it irritated their skin. But it fairs well on me. Right before the cinnamon gets too strong it falls back, & I smell some kind of floral in there. An arousing scent for sure.

    Hope

    I've not encountered this kind of rose before. Unlike "Faith" I'm not picking up much sugar. It is there but it is faint. This smells like a waxy kind of rose to me. I think I'll use this one for layering.

    Faith

    Smells exactly like sugar coated violets. I see them in my head when I take a sniff; chunky sugar crystals on soft violet petals. The sugar note smells like delicious rock candy & that impresses me that scent can be captured.

    Maenad

    This one smells so mouthwatering. It's super sweet strawberry, orange blossom, & hibiscus at first. I think the black poppy is also giving it that uniqueness. Smells like those Easter Egg candies that are made practically of pure sugar. This should be an atmosphere spray!

    'Tis Not Madness

    This is such a lovely scent. Reminds me of something I've smelled at some point in childhood & it stuck with me. Maybe a perfume someone wore. I'm head over heels for this one. It's sweet, & slightly floral. Even my wife loves to wear it.

    Shanghai

    Received as an imp. Super clean smelling green tea, with lemon verbena, & the lovely honeysuckle as a final impression. A unisex scent I think I would wear during the Summer.

    White Rabbit

    Received as an imp. It smells so yummy. At first I smell tea, but then it blossoms into vanilla, milk, ginger, & honey with crisp linen. Complex, delicate, a bit of heaven.

    The Jersey Devil

    Received as an imp. Woody & fruity. That is a really great combo. Smells like a candle I bought at some point in time. When it mellows it smells of cedarwood, & blackberry. The tomato leaf is something new to me. Gonna add this to my shopping list!

    Ode on Melancholy

    Received as an imp. I figured the ingredients would make this a floral, feminine smell. But it actually smells like a men's cologne. It has a clean green smell to it that is fresh & airy.

    Nosferatu

    Received as an imp. I compared this to "Nosferstu" by Black Baccara perfume oils. This one is a lot lighter, & I love the earth smell in it. The wine is just right, & the roses aren't deathly strong either. I prefer this blend, honestly. It's fun!

    Blood Amber

    Received as an imp. It has a spiciness to it that reminds me of cinnamon. When it mellows out it is a simple amber.

    Zephyr

    Received as an imp. It smells soft, & girly on me. It's complex. In the bottle it is lemony. On my skin it turns into a gentle floral musk. Definitely a springtime scent.
