Sich Aufstützender Weiblicher Akt Mit Langem Haar
KarenWalker replied to doomsday_disco's topic in Limited Editions
I have no clue what happened because I got 0% of these beautiful notes. It's 100% strong soap on me. Kind of a fancier dove bar. -
Jammy blackberry filling only, sadly no pastry

Upvoting @VioletChaos. Very well put. But while I really like how it smells and enjoy sniffing, it's not something I think I can wear all day without succumbing to a headache from the perfumey aspect.
-
Twizzlers. Is that the worst thing? Definitely not. But that's all I got.
-
Alas, the allspice is too much for me. Allspice and clove are migraine notes for me, but I can see the beauty in this, just from far away. Very amber forward on me.

I don't have enough in my felties to try this, but I bet layered with Lines Written by a Bear...would be absolutely banging. This is gorgeous. Buttery, warm in the amber sense, vanilla without being Vanilla. My brain tells me that this lives too close to Lines Written in my satisfaction of the scents, so I'll pick one to FS. Right now this is winning

What @wilhelmscream said. How is this both warm and cool? Beautiful and light.

I'm so sad, I just got caramelized dark honey. Why??
-
What @LavenderCoffee said! It's really pretty and does that fizzy thing that BPAL is so good at creating
-
I'm also getting whatever odd background note that @ND¢is getting. Maybe it is kinda balsamic? I don't think it's patchouli but I can't quite put my finger on it. The wet stage was roasted beans and caramel but dry I'm just getting this off note behind a little haze of amber.

I can't improve upon everyone else's reviews. It's truly grey, pale purple, barest pink, soft and swirly, melancholy and lovely. It reminds me of Equivalent No 314, without the creaminess of that scent.

So far I'm only getting a very mild kind of nutty buttercream. I love the scent of angel food cake but I'm sadly missing that entirely. There's a vague sheen in there that's got to be the lipgloss but this is so far a rare puzzling one on me- pleasant but entirely missing the promised notes. Maybe it needs more time to morph.

The pomegranate dominates the pistachio about 60/40, but I can detect it's certainly more creamy pistachio than nutty/floral. The pom starts pretty juicy but mellows with the cream over time. Nice but not sure I need more than my decant
-
Marzipan-y almond-y goodness. I don't get any cherry notes, just creamy sweet almond. I love it. Sadly only 3-4 hours of wear time.

I'm surprised by often I reach for this when I have a migraine. It's nice and bracing but not overwhelming and truly helps lessen the pain (you know, on top of my fancy RX meds). The main downside is longevity; this doesn't last more than an hour. Which is typically totally fine with me- I'm usually putting it on before a nap or bed to soothe myself. But today I ended up just packing it with me to work because I knew I'd need it all day.
