can someone please post the purdee pix of the new convergence III bottles? those and crumpet rebellion?

forum only scents are like the enraged musks and F5... on occasion, beth with come up with a LE forum fragrance that can only be purchased using your forum name in the notes of the order ... they are announced during updates from time to time so just keep your eyes peeled

straight sniff from the bottle is lots of caramel & a touch of wood...must be the sandalwood once applied the cinnamon leaf amps up and combines with the tobacco and caramel making this an olfactory dream-come-true this has some serious staying power as well...i have been wearing it for several hours now and i keep getting sniffs of cinnamon, caramel and patchouli with the slightest touch of lily of the valley... i just adore this blend to pieces!! bravo beth!!

straight sniff from the bottle this *is* arrival at the sabbath & homage to the devil zombified personally, the mossy loaminess of this is forefront...and it stays there... ultra light caramel pops up, but that earthiness is overwhelming mossy earth and sweet do not play well with me... when i saw the reviews referencing anaconda/sugar skull, i thought i had this in the bag... ah but it is such a fun bpal ride i am sure i can find BLWB a loving home in no time

completely revamping this post... ojon smells very, very much like MiskU but with more vanilla and coffee... if that makes any sense...so anywho, try MiskU...it is a regular catalog scent and also at the trading post as sudz...the soaps are so mild you can use them on your locks...i should know

i love the smell of this stuff too!!! i would say that Misk U is probably the closest to the scent of ojon... also you might want to give tiresias, possibly djinn a try and combine them... ETA: i completely forgot...ventriloquist dummy is another one that has a similar aroma...now that you got me thinking more about this, i think i will have to go home and do a little experiment...will report my findings a bit later....

straight sniff from imp this is clove cigs and cherry hops once applied the clove and cherry intermingle with the tonka making this an incredible blend...long lasting too...i am a huge fan and i only wish i had ordered a big bottle of this one as it is my fav out of the poker playing pups... it's just that good

djinn & tarot:death=smoky heaven

straight sniff from imp is springtime in a bottle once applied the scent, while apparent, is very gentle and breezy... the florals are subdued and lovely...excellent combination of notes

straight sniff from imp is fruitilicious, herbal mint... once applied some florals amp up and calm down in a flash! amen!! this is an absolutely beautiful scent...the rose, violet and apple blossom are achingly incredible...the mint and thyme add a fabulousness that is nothing short of spectacular....i need a big bottle without question

straight sniff from imp is sweetened condensed milk with pineapple juice.... once applied very much pineapple and milky with some fig... fig and i play oh so well together!! this has some serious throw and after 15 minutes or so gets very powdery combined with the fig and fruit and milk...its gorgeousness in a bottle...i lurve it so this is a sheer delight...i am so happy that this worked for me...and am pleased as punch i scored a bottle from a lovely forumite...yay!

straight sniff from bottle is somewhat similar to my beloved schwartzer but less intense... this is a gorgeous, deeply resinous with deep dark musk... once applied this has a sweet edge to it and very incensey...i love this to pieces

ultraviolet is very sharp to me ... not all smooth and slightly cocoa-y like tokyo stomp

my pleasure and i am so happy you enjoyed this combo!! my home-done 5ml of this is about 1/2 gone but still smells amazing and oh so similar to the original POTL

this is the 2007 version... straight sniff from imp is very wet, lush, green grass with a touch of lemon verbena... a true spring scent once applied the green grass comes forefront...i get a hint of bitterness...almost like a dandelion...the lemon verbena fades fast and furiously and i am personally left with grass and dandelion...i love it

straight sniff from imp is hot and spicy pepper, ginger, incense once applied a twinge of sweetness comes forefront...a magnolia floral... this combined with the ginger is so different! interesting and quite pretty in my humble opinion

which version of sugar skull? 2004, 2005, 2006? your version sounds fantabulous and so right on!! i must try it when i get home...nummy

straight sniff from imp is lots of red musk and sugared cassia~ once applied the cassia amps up tremendously...after 30 minutes or so it settles down and some fruitiness comes forth...a definitely interesting blend; the red musk does the trick and makes this super unique!

straight sniff from imp is fruity and floral...delicate...pretty and fun once applied lots of bergamot and sage and musk combined with the citrus and floral... absolutely gorgeous...a perfect blend for a springtime day...

straight sniff from bottle is very incensey...lots of cedar... once applied this reminds me of obatala...the coconut aspect of obatala anyway... a touch of sandalwood combined with the cedar and coconut makes this positively gorgeous and one of the best GCs to date...adore it!!

chunky, clotted black cherry is a perfect description from the lab... once applied powdered sugar and the darkest, sweetest cherry blend comes forth... no creaminess for me... lots of throw this is a super fun scent from the lab...and i betcha it ages to perfection as well...

i am among the masses as well... straight sniff from bottle is girl scout thin mints...heavenly once applied the vanilla and mint are very prominant... not any cocoa at this point but after a few minutes on my skin, a faint and beautiful cocoa combines with the vanilla and mint... the vanilla in this blend is the *best* to date that our resident mme. moriarty has created... hands down!! i am in awe and will love my bottle to pieces...nummy!!

straight sniff from imp is all hairspray... once applied still that dreaded aqua-net pink can hairspray i used in the 80's with some floral...white gardenia...hmmm this is very long lasting and has incredible throw...i get a sense of something bubbly or champagne-like after 10 to 15 minutes... i feel very fortunate that i was able to try intergalactic...and in all honesty i can say this is not a scent that loves me

straight sniff from the bottle is a granny smith apple with more of a kick! very fresh...slightly tart, tangy and soury once applied the opium swirls and twirls about and a pinch of hemlock makes a short lived appearance... lasting power is "meh" for me so i guess i will have to be slathering this one... i am sure to be loving it more in the autumn months so i shall put this preciousss into the cool, dark depths of my wooden bpal box and try it in a few months

i have read all of the reviews; some stating that this smells similar to calyx, happy and even alien but my schnoz cannot begin to compare 51 with any of them...and thankfully so!! straight sniff from the bottle is very aquatic and musky...not unlike buck moon... reminds me of a cool crisp night in the desert air most definitely...Groom Lake here i come this scent is absolutely gorgeous and i am thrilled i scored a bottle!! perfect for the upcoming warmer weather, i will be wearing this often!!
