    Looking for a BPAL that Resembles a Favorite Perfume

    I have been intermittently haunting the BPAL site for at least 10 years but have never been super big into perfume (they can give me headaches) and the catalog was overwhelming. A few years ago I tried some more mainstream houses and ended up liking the following: Ormonde Jayne's Woman (although it disappears quickly on me), Man, and Tolu, and Aesop's Tacit and Hwyl. I feel like I know what I don't like more than what I do...no gourmands or heavy florals, not sweet, not too much of the frankincense/myrrh scent, and patchouli makes me sneeze. I also don't know how to describe this, but some perfumes smell very "heavy" to me, like they catch in the back of my throat? I do love the smell of forests, rain, the desert the ocean, and citrus. I've attempted to go through the imp-able scents (trying to limit myself to imps before looking for decants) and pick scents that I think fit these specifications (and have read the wonderful reviews on this site to help!): Aelopile, Anteros, Aperotos Eros, Azathoth, Baobhan Sith, Black Forest , Coyote, Elf, Half-elf, Fae, Fallen, Haunted, Jersey Devil, Lady of Shalott, Leanan Sidhe, Lyonesse, Oberon, Old Demons of the First Class, Robin Goodfellow, Scales of Deprivation, Tavern of Hell, Wilde, and Y'ha-nthlei. Would you steer me away from any of these or are any of them must tries? Thank you all!
