Lightning is by far my favorite BPAL scent. It smells like the air in Florida right before a summer storm. My nose too itched at the initial smell as if it sensed the bottled electricity. I wear it all over. My skin, my hair, mixed with shea, I adore it. When I travel it keeps me from getting home sick. Oddly enough, some days I swear it smells like a My Little Pony fresh from the container. Something nostalgic about it. I certainly wouldn't categorize the My Little Pony scent as bad, it just shows how skin chemistry can effect scent and the depth of Lightning. I hope everyone takes the time to get to know this scent. I know with all the variety it can be hard to try everything, but this is truly a gem. Much thanks to its creator!
