i loved this. it immediately brought to mind the long-forgotten smell of some incense that my grandmother used to have. i guess that's the myrrh. i could also faintly smell red wine in the background, but really, the myrrh was what stood out above all else. sweet and calming, but also mysterious.

this came in a lot of imps i bought on ebay, and i hesitated to try it because i've always been wary of "girly," powdery fragrances. it definitely IS powdery, and sweet and flowery, but in the BEST way. it's not a strong, overwhelming floral scent, but rather very gentle and very calming.

this is the first bpal perfume i've tried, and my first review... when i first applied succubus, it smelled very strongly of oranges and sort of like pine, as well. the pine quickly faded and the orange smell grew more sweet and powdery. now, hours later, my wrists still smell like oranges and sugar. it reminds me very much of lush's christmas party ballistic - it's got that same very strong, almost harsh orange scent at first, that fades into a sweeter version of itself.
