BPAL Madness!

Recommended Posts

"Knock knock…" The unpleasant hand reaching out through the window with your treat smells suspiciously of crunchy leaves, well-worn black leather, cardamom pod, moonlit yellow bergamot, woodmoss, molasses, and vanilla-slapped buttermilk. You resist the urge to reply "Who's there?" realizing you don't actually want to know.

In the bottle: Leather and buttermilk 🙃 

 

On the skin: I really want to like this! An interesting combination of notes I usually enjoy. But even after first applying it, it's so intensely black leather and buttermilk on me that I can't get to the other notes. Gonna let that sit and re-examine in 5...

 

(as I'm sitting here though, I absolutely smell molasses wafting up from my arm)

 

Okay, going back in!

 

I smell dead leaves! I smell the spicy cardamom and crisp bergamot. I smell moss. There is a hint of vanilla and molasses.

 

The leather is still very strong, but the fact that it's relented even that much to let the other notes come through is really appreciated. And the leather has changed in that time from smelling brand freakin' new to softer, broken in.

 

Like a beloved pair of Doc Martens that have survived every festive autumnal outing. 

 

(20+ minutes of wear)

 

Okay, I do actually love it! What a relief!
