Love a Victoria's Secret fragrance? Looking for a BPAL cousin to it?
mommy2gabe replied to foundmyhappyplace's topic in Recommendations
I know this is an old post but for anyone else looking for Love Spell (which is fantastic!) Lady Macbeth is very similar. I haven't smelled Snowplum but maybe Candy Phoenix is similar?CANDY PHOENIXA dusky, yet effervescent mix of pomegranate and black currant candies, with a dusting of sugared pear and white apple. -
This is the perfect holiday scent. Bright juicy pomegranate mixed with a slightly pine scent. Delicious!
-
I wore The Fruit of Paradise for the holiday season. It's so red and cheerful - a perfect holiday scent.

Spongy grey and pink cake, with sweet strawberry cream, giddy carnation, and electrical pulses of white grapefruit. In the bottle this is fantastic but it is another scent that smells just like strawberry lip gloss on me after it dries down. Sigh. -
I love this. I can't even describe the notes - it's just warm and soothing on me. Fortunately I don't get the play-doh scent at all.
-
I love Candy Phoenix. It does smell somewhat similar to Sticky Pillowcase but it is a brighter scent due to the Pomegranate.
-
I absolutely love this. It is so sweet and happy. I love the sugary notes.
-
Wet this smelled great but it dried down to a very spicy scent that just isn't me.
-
I thought this would be perfect as I love sweet scents, but on drydown it smells exactly like cheap strawberry lip gloss on me. So sad - I had such high hopes.
-
This is my favorite BPAL so far. It's a perfect blend of floral and fruity.
-
I absolutely love the apricot in this but it quickly dried down to just clove on my skin.
-
I thought I would love this. In the bottle it smelled great but on me it smelled bitter - hard to explain.
-
I'm not a fan of foody scents but this is really nice and light. It smells just like a cupcake on me. Not an everyday scent for me but still a keeper.
-
This is rich and yummy but I have discovered foody smells are just not me in general.
-
On me this smelled warm and musky. Not umpleasant, but I didn't like it enough to keep.
-
In the bottle this smells just like pink bubblegum - too strong. Wet - still bubblegum Dry - turned into something delicious - I love this! Now it smells like sweet mixed with pine. I ordered a bottle.
-
On me this smelled nice at first but dried down to strawberry lipgloss with a touch of floral. Swap pile!

I thought I would love this. In the bottle it smelled great but on me it just didn't work. I got a strong medicinal smell.
-
On me this just did not work. At first it was nice but it dried a strong alcohol smell. It gave me a headache and stuck around for a long time even after I used rubbing alcohol and scrubbed my arm repeatedly.
-
Oh Poisoned Apple, how I love thee! Bright apple scent that is also slightly herbal. Delicious! Lasted 2-3 hours on me with a strong throw.
-
I love The Hesperides. The combination of apple with the oakmoss and leaves works perfectly. It's bright and subdued at the same time. Delicious! I ordered a bottle immediately.
-
I don't usually like floral or musky scents on me but this is nice on me. I'm not sure it's a keeper but I need to try it again to make sure.
-
This is a warm cinnamon scent on me - I'm not sure I'll wear it a lot but it's not unpleasant.
-
I love the Mandarin and the fig is a nice complement. This one is on my bottle wishlist.
-
At first this smelled soft and pleasant but after a little while it started making me nauseus. Trade pile!
