All my friend and I were getting from this was cinnamon. The description sounds lovely, but it kind of reminded me of redhots candy rather than plums. ADDED June 12: I agree with some of the above reviews... I smell like a waxy generic candle.

mmm... to me this smells like sun bathed skin... perhaps what a nun would smell like if she sunbathed between masses? I love the complexity of this, and the feeling of it, but I don't see there being enough places to really wear this to justify a bottle. Its more of a feeling you want to have than a perfume you want to smell, IMO.

this is quite a strong floral scent. I'm not liking this as much as the other stardust scents I have smelt so far, it smells too much like air freshener to me... kind of soapy and really strong. Quite clean though, at the same time. Been on an hour and still strong enough to smell from quite a distance, overwhelmed the other two things I was trying on, and isn't showing any sign of fading. All in all, while its not a bad scent or anything, its not my kind of scent, so I am likely going to try and find it a more loving home. It might get deeper one someone else's skin. Edit, great staying power, but 12 hours later and it smells kind of sour on my skin, but alot weaker, I can see where the tea description comes from.

I really liked this scent... but after I realized what it reminded me of personally, I just can't think about reapplying this. Keep the imp, very interesting and evocative scent. It layered great with zombi! Very true to its mineral concept... almost reminds me of sand and playgrounds... or placed with a darker scent, it lends a nice crypt aspect to it (the stone) Great staying power, I like how it whifts up to be scented every now and then.

mmm... love at first sniff... i think this was my first BPAL to actually try on. Its like, what amber resin smells like, when its dry... and grass... It has a strong cinnamon note on everyone elseI have been trying to enable to bpal around here though. I love it in all its forms... o lion, won't you be my love. The lion's flaws: The staying power alternates between nill and avg for this... depending on how much you slater on.

the gemini moon in my loves this scent. Its sweet, and dry and musky all at the same time. I described it to a friend (who has not idea about scent notes) as being: Eating lavender cotton candy with bees buzzing all around, on a hot summer day (that kind of sweet hot musk). And then it dries to a sweet, lavender on me. Seriously, this is one of the only blends in my life where lavender works on me. I love the taste of lavender, but the scent normally drives me nuts. This doesn't at all. I love it!

mmm... this is the first aquatic scent since Marina de Bourbon's "aqua di aqua' scents that I have been utterly in love with. I should get a bottle... wait I have one... I need to hoard this! *cries that its an LE scents* The almond isn't quite as noticable in this blend as I had hoped... and the frankincense disappears pretty soon into the blend... leaving me with a salty vanilla musk... I think I can pick out a little jasmine. where is the vanilla coming from *wonders*? It has amazing staying power... not quite the "wake up in the morning still smelling it" kind... believe me, I tried. But it is egnough to last one throughout the day, with perhaps a slight application. I wonder if it is a bit strong though... because its one of the few scents I like that I haven't been glued to my wrist with (it comes to me) and it gave one of my teachers a headache when I had a meeting with her. Yet, despite all of this... this mermaid has won me over... I want at least another bottle of it before the carnival leaves town... i wonder how it will age?
