leptonpyr Report post Posted 11 hours ago Well, I'm not sure how helpful my review is going to be to anyone else, but I feel compelled to leave one considering this is an active Lunacy and mine would be the first! So. I amp indoles unto oblivion. Apparently BPAL's lilac accord (don't know if it's all lilacs or just black lilac, this is my first BPAL lilac) is indolic, because when I first put it on all I could smell was an atomic indole BLAST. Thankfully this calms down within an hour and I start getting something more recognizably lilac-y that is very pretty, although still quite strong. It's nice and fresh and not at all powdery. I did not get even the slightest hint of tea until after many hours of wear, when I think I started to detect a hint of astringency. Now at the very end of the day, after about 10 hours of wear, I think I can finally smell more of the tea, and it's quite lovely as it mixes with the lilac. I guess the most useful thing I can say is: if you amp indoles, this lilac accord is in fact somewhat indolic. I doubt it's as intensely indolic for anyone whose skin behaves normally around indoles, so if you don't share my indole problem and you try this one out, I'd love to see another review so I can get an idea of what this is *supposed* to smell like!
