How often do untested BPAL scents work on you? (excluding notes you already know will go bad / you dislike) It's honestly a mix. Lots of times I will find things that work out nicely but aren't quite my style, or I wouldn't wear it enough. But that doesn't stop me from trying! I'm up for trying just about anything once, and for that reason, I love getting imps and decants!

What does everyone want out of the new update? (Lupercalia, Bony Moon & Earth Ox) Dear Witch, I have been a bad, bad girl! All the Shunga and Aphrodite and Box of Chocolate scents sounded so good that I got decants of them ALL! However, I would dearly love to try Earth Ox, but alas, it's not in the cards for me right now.
