I'm newish. I don't have a ton of BPAL and I'm still waiting on my next order when I'm sure a lot of these will change. But so far my top 5:
1. Constellation...the amber and clove are DIVINE
2. Pandemic Vanitas
3. Mallow Flower, Honeysuckle, and Vanilla Bean
4. The Little Owl
5. Snake Oil

Oh wow. I tried this as soon as I got it. It smells so incredible. I thought I wasn't super big on "spicy" scents but the amber in this must be working to smooth out the clove. It really gives me the pumpkin spice I always wanted with no cinnamon, just sugary cloves. The amber really makes it creamy, and the dry down is unreal, slightly sweet and spicy amber. It's not powdery at all to me. I will wear this a ton.

This is a warm soft brown scent. I definitely get sandalwood and oakiness in this. My skin must amp it. At first it's Tonka Bean and Sandalwood a woodiness. Then as it dries I get more of the beeswax. The beeswax is very nice in this and while honey tends to overwhelm me on most things this has a soft honey/beeswax scent that tempers the woodiness. It is like lying in fresh clean hay while chewing on a bit of beeswax. Maybe there are some sandalwood shaving sprinkled about. And over it all is a warm blanket of Tonka Bean. When I smelled this in the jar I thought "whew sandalwood", but I'm glad I gave it a chance because it's very cozy and soft when wearing.

I also thought it was marshmallow...I read mallow flower and still thought MARSHMALLOW? So it wasn't just doomsday_disco. I wanted more honeysuckle as well. I'm not sure what kind of mallow flower and upon smelling this realized I had no idea. It has a white floral sweet scent, literally smells like a candied flower, not flour don't get confused again. It is definitely a springtime scent. I am going to layer it with a vanilla cake scent and see what I think.
Dead Leaves, Scorched Pumpkin, and Marshmallows

Oh this is so toasty and nice. Don't get me wrong, those dead leaves come on strong at first but mellow out on the skin. I like that the pumpkin isn't a very spicy pumpkin as I have trouble with the spicy pumpkins. It's a nice warm autumn scent with the dead leaves giving it just a little oomph past ordinary. It really has a feeling of being a scent of "walking outside in the fall". I don't think I could handle that Dead Leaves note without the very sweet and toasty marshmallow.
