BPAL Madness!

Recommended Posts

A diaphanous, nocturnal blend that shimmers between airy radiance and shadowed warmth. A silvery wash of moonflower and white heliotrope drifts over cool iris and gossamer musk, while golden amber resin and benzoin glow softly beneath like the living heat of beating wings. Threads of honeyed beeswax and tobacco flower lend a faint, feral sweetness, and a dusting of frankincense ash and myrrh smoke curls at the edges, recalling the dark from which she rises.

this opens with moonflower, musk and iris. It's definitely sheer and diaphanous.  After a minute or so the tobacco flower peeks out a bit. then after more time passes, I get something slightly dusty and/or smoky…maybe the frankincense and myrrh, but it is very subtle. Overall i get moonflower, iris and musk as the strongest notes- it's a wispy slightly green floral with subtle smoky nuances in the background. very pretty for spring or late winter.

Yes, this has a lot of moonflower, iris and musk as  @theseagrowsstated. It is a bit floral for my tastes. However, something absolutely stunning happened. I went to wash it off and only the top notes came off...and what remained...was Zorya P. I kid you not. I sniffed my arm and was astounded. I was ready to sell this one off as I am not much into florals these days, but it may need to sit and stew in my resting box to see if some of those deeper notes blossom over time. I think the honeyed beeswax may be reading as Amber? This was quite a journey.
