On me it's grape koolaid and rose. I guess I'm not ready for the grownups table. Swappity swap!

This is my best rose yet. Not overpowering, just soft, beautiful, and innocent.

Definately aquatic. The flowers don't come through for me.

I'm not big on florals. I can smell some rose, and what I think is lily. There's also something green here I can't put my finger on...

Very, very vanilla. And just a touch of honey. I'm not sure what I think of this, but I think it will layer nicely.

Very verbina and very astringent. Not for me! I like citrus, but this is too bitter.

Dark spicy myrrh! To me this is very light. No fruit here, but I'm really liking this one.

Patchouli and wood. My skin seems to amp wood - that's mostly all I can smell.

Butter rum life savers! Too sweet for me! I like foody, but this is like drowning in Buttershots.

I love white musk! And with it, we have orange and a hint of licorice. (I call them as I smell them. ) This may be a new favorite.

No amber on me! Just black musk which seems to communicate itself to my senses as "unwashed socks."

I love white musk. This is a Zephyr cousin. These's sage and something herbal here as well. A keeper.

My skin amps the heck out of rose. This is the first BPAL rose I've tried I actually could wear. Rose and powder. Also a nice grass note.

Wood and resins. Surprisingly light and refreshing. Maybe a bit of myrrh? Similar to Penitence, but lighter.

White and sweet. Plumaria and light florals I can't identify. I like this, although I don't usually do florals.

I'm getting lots of cypress. Green, with a sour medicinal note. Kind of like cleaning fluid. There's a peppery smell here too.

There's something about this that I can't put my finger on, but I don't like it. Musky with wood notes. There's a touch of civet too.

Spicy. I get the myrrh from Penitence with a more woody note Sort of the lovechild of Penitence and Cathedral. I don't get a dark feeling at all. Very church-like.

Others have said gentle. To me it's very faint. Almost no smell at all. A little rose, a little resin. My skin eats what's left.

I don't get rose out of this at all. Soap - hotel soap. Off to the swap pile with ye.

This is the closest I've smelt to a commercial "Rain" fragrence in BPAL. Ozone.

In the bottle: Lavender On me: Lavender with some citrus undertones. Fades a bit fast. I like this. I don't think it smells masculine per se. It's very relaxing for me.

I really should know better. Civet is not my friend. This smells...unclean to me. It's similar to Czernborg, but I like that one better.

DIII In the bottle: Fruit, spice, and an alcohol note. On me: Grape Koolaid - but more sophisticated. Plum? Huckleberry? It still has the background spicy note. DIV In the bottle: Cherry, cherry, cherry. Not cough drops - more like jam. On me: Marinated cherries - cherries with booze! I like this. I'm not sure where I'd wear it, but I like it.

DVI In the bottle: Milk chocolate and tobacco On me: Boy this is hard. This moves to a more nutty/fruity smell. The chocolate and tobacco are still there, but it's less straight forward. I know this makes it sound a Cadbury Fruit and Nut bar, but that's not it either. It doesn't smell "foodie," per se, if that makes any sense at all.
