Wow, not many reviews here so will add my very first one! (don't know why I've waited since I've been wearing BPAL for a few years or more...). Here goes nothing!
Origin: Will Call 1/30/10
Initial Thoughts: I have an imp of TKO and like it but it’s a little sweet. Works nice with lotion. Having read reviews of TKO V3 stating it has less of the marshmallow scent and more of the lavender I thought it would be worth trying. So it’s late at night and hoping not only does it smell nice (I like lavender) but helps me to have a decent sleep.
In the Bottle: The Lavender is a bit sharp, almost as if it is fighting with the marshmallow. But I know lavender tends to do this while in a liquid state.
Wet: In deed, the lavender is less sharp once applied to the skin. While the marshmallow is still there, the lavender is stronger. I don’t mind this, it’s like trying a lavender scented candy. Leaves me wondering if a little cream scent was added if it would smell like lavender scented white chocolate.
Drydown: Lavender wins but marshmallow is not far behind. This scent does get faint in just a few hours. Still, it’s nice. Many hours later I can still smell the faint scent of lavender.
Verdict. I would say that if someone wanted a lavender scent with a difference, this might be worth a try. I think the sweet marshmallow scent is a nice change from floral scents such as roses that often are mixed with lavender. I personally enjoy this one.
