BPAL Madness!

Recommended Posts

Behold! A honey perfume for those of us that generally can’t wear Bpal honey scents!


I have a 95% fail rate with Bpal’s honey note so I’m not sure why I purchased a bunch of fullsizes from the Honey Pot release. I think all the notes just sounded good and thankfully my gamble paid off because every bottle ordered smells amazing. Honey, Raspberry Jam, & Buttercream is the first one I’m skin testing from this collection though!

 

First applied to skin it’s straight up raspberry syrup with honey in the background. This is a sugary honey, not screechy or overpowering. My first thought was to slather since I had a feeling I was going to wand-cap and keep her! 
 

Within a matter of minutes the raspberry syrup calmed down and the buttercream and honey were stepping up and becoming key players too.

 

Unf, let me tell you I sniffed my arms alllll day today. At some point magic happened and it smelled like sugary raspberry buttercream. If I could find a cake shop with buttercream like this - I’d never order any other frosting. Drool worthy! I’m for sure getting a backup bottle.

 

It’s been over eight hours since application and I can still smell the sugary goodness on my skin when I sniff my wrists. I’m hoping this scent gets even better with age.
 

This one is for the gourmand lovers!

this is golden and gorgeous and perfect. a bright, warm honey with bold ruby facets of raspberry and a whisk of sugary buttercream. honestly the buttercream is not super prominent for me but it adds a lovely bakeshop vibe. I already love honey so I didn't really need to be sold on this, and I'm also glad it's not crushingly sweet. a gourmand I can endorse! and slather copiously!

In the Bottle: Raspberry, darker than normal but with more of a tart bite so this is the jammy aspect.  A basenof general sweetness.

 

On the Skin: the raspberry in this is so good.  It's definitely jam.  No honey to speak of but the buttercream, while very present, isn't overpowering.  Honey does peak out occasionally, and it's not a light honey.  On the extreme drydown, this smells like milk chocolate and Raspberry.  Love it.
