Look for blends from the LE series Paduan Killer Bees. Also there are a bunch of honey blends in the Rappaccin's apiary.

Think you are missing Mosterbait: Underpants ETA: oops didn't notice this was from 2009 Also: Lilith's Tea Party Anne Beany Tiki Princess Werepuppy

To me it smells exactly like corn chips. Or those hard corn taco shells you get in the grocery store. which are basically corn chips. LOL. I really don't know what in here makes it smell like that to my nose. It is kinda funny that my nose is this weird sometimes. Corn chips

It does remind me of Lush - in the best way. Am calling this a relaxing lime blend. It is citrusy but sweet and the chamomile is a powdery soothing compliment to it. Liking this a lot

Love this! has the same sweet sugary feel at Candy Phoenix. The sweet pea and Lemon sort of combine in a way that has a watermelon scent to it.

the proto is fruitier than the released version of Mme. Moriarty. There is plum but also some other tart fruit. Much lighter on the red musk but it is still in there. Not getting any of the vanilla of the released version which really helps to deepen and round out the plum.

nothing butter about this, it is a clean dark metalic blend, like a lab with a bunsen burner aflame in the background

Smells like sugary red hots, pumpkin and a teeny tiny hint of blueberry. Didn't get the blueberry til I skin tested, couldn't smell it at all in the bottle. But I would really describe this as a cinnamon pumpkin blend.

Hello Smutastic awesomesauce! Many thanks to the great and powerful PersianMouse for the sniffie of this. Maeve is a musky, dark, resinous, gorgeous blend. There is a hint of something nutty but it is fairly light. I just can't stop sniffing my wrist.

if there are synthetics used what does it matter? Truly. Because I really want to know. How in the world would using a synthetic matter if that was the best possible scent for the results she wanted?

Bravo Beth. Your integrity is a huge part of why I love BPAL so much.

a number of bpal blends over the years have had to be discontinued because their components could no longer be sourced. If they just used synthetics WTF would they have to be discontinued? Because you can always get synthetics.

This is like an evil version of Port Jelly. Am getting vetiver or a dark patchouli with the sweet port wine scent coming out underneath. A much more dark incense feel to this with a lot of depth

Love this!!! Starts out total banana bread on me then the benzoin/caramel notes come out so it smells all warm and snuggly. Definate foody but that mellows as it dries down. This is one of those blends that just makes me smile. it also has some great throw to it.

Anyone have pics of the proto labels from the latest trunk show?

this is like the best of Samhain and my beloved Harvest Moon 05 combined. It has that atmospheric smokiness that is so hard for me to describe. It smells like a cool, crisp fall night. Wonderful. It stays very close to the skin and doesn't amp up but just stays a soft evocative blend.

this went on very tangerines, cream, and bubblegum! It was very sweet and rich and girly. Then it dried down to a gorgeous soft tangerine and sandalwood. lovely!

literary vamps There is also a black and white Marcalla label which I don't have but have seen pics of

pulled this blend out last night in a random grab. I put it on and immediatly got a sweet honeysuckle scent from it. That softened in just a few minutes and it became a warm vanilla blend.

Background: The Dark Maiden is a fourth aspect of the Goddess corresponding to the waning moon as she moves toward the Crone. For others the Dark Maiden refers to the day after the new moon. In the bottle: Sharp, warm woods, leather, amber(?), and what I think might be rosemary. On: this is freaking strong - and I don't actually recommend wearing it - or if you do make sure it is in moderation. I can literally taste the ceder in my mouth after wearing. Ritual: TBD

I've had, 5 or 6 imps of anaconda and they are a light golden brown color. For me it smells like snake oil plus sugar skull. Very sugary but don't get any lemon from it. Sorry

I'm totally getting a fruity plum vibe from this. So much so that I am just renaming it Hellion Room Spray. I'm in love. I have to thank Bill for picking this out for me With this ultra excellent selection you are pulling ahead of Brian as my go to labbie crush.

not to mention that the Illustrated Woman isn't "rare" - Weird.

Le Mat!
