The closest scent to fresh rain I can get. It's got the clean washed ozone with a hint of dewy white flowers. I like this scent better wet than dry. On me almost everything goes to powder. So this is a good scent for sachets and oil burning. Szepasszony is my favorite scent out of all that I've tried so far.

In the bottle: Sweet floral, like a blushing rose with a hint of mint that took me by surprise. On my skin: The mint disappeared quickly. It was rosey almost instantaneously. On my skin dry: This one stuck with me all day. I was wearing a wool sweater when I first tried it, so I think it sucked into the sweater a bit. It was soft and sweet all day long and cheered me up every time I pulled my sweater up over my face. This seems to be a trend for me lately, rosey scents that is. The rose tends to overpower most of the other notes on my skin. Overall: I liked it, but it wasn't anything like what I expected. I'll be trying it at different times of the month in an attempt to pull the minty notes out more. Edit: It is remotely possible that I'm allergic to a component (possibly eucalyptus, which I know I'm allergic to) in this scent. The spot where I placed it turned red, however it wasn't terribly irritated. It was bearable, but I'd probably wear it on clothes rather than on my skin if that's the case.

In the bottle: Sweet and wet, very fresh. On my skin: At first it's wet roses. It's the only smell I can really equate to it. I can just picture a bunch of dewy pink rose buds dripping with this scent. On my skin dry: And once it's dry it's overwhelmingly powerful wet roses. It's the only thing I get out of this scent on me. Sweet and floral, soaking wet. Overall: Very pretty, but not a frequent wear. Terribly strong with staying power on my skin. If I had a top ten this would be near the bottom.

In the bottle: my first impression was a soft, sweet floral. On my skin wet: It started out as floral, a little fruity now that it was on my skin. On my skin dry: The rose came out first. Almost everything so far goes to powder on me in some varying degree and this was no exception, but the powder was soft and floral. On my skin dryer: The peach notes started to drown out the rose, still playing in harmony with the powdery chemistry of my skin. Overall: In the end this is a lovely scent and could possibly become my new signature. Whenever I get paid next I'm definitely ordering this in greater quanity.

In the bottle: A very strong floral. It's so strong it almost has a tinge of alcohol under it. On my skin: Very pretty floral. It reminds of a scent my aunt wears (she got hers from Avon and I can't think of the name of it). I don't get the clover or wooden notes, but I get the flowers. It goes a little powdery as it dries, but I'm finding most Bpal does on my skin. Once dry: This stays very strong on my skin. It doesn't fade like most of the other oils I've tried from Bpal. Even after a few hours it's still going strong. This was a gift from a friend. I don't know that I would have bought it for myself. It's kind of weird thinking that I smell like my aunt. She's a nice lady and all, but we don't have similar tastes in anything. Come on, she's an avon lady! I don't feel like much of an ingenue wearing it, more like a woman having a mid-life crisis, but again, it's the whole reminding me of my aunt thing (I kid, I kid).

In the bottle: Cherry cough syrup. Yuck. On my skin at first: this turns to powder on my skin almost instantly, but it's not overwhelming. It still has the sweet notes of cherry and the dark notes of wood underneath the powder scent. On my skin dry: as time wears on the powder dies down and the darker cherry and wood smell come out. It's very sweet, but it wears well through the day.

In the bottle: To me it smelled like a fruit smoothie in the blender, very sweet and fruity, a little metallic. On my skin at first: It smelled like fresh, sweet lilacs. We've got a huge hedge growing next door. I felt like I was out back enjoying the scent in the sunshine. On my skin once dry: It dried into an ashy scent, still floral with the hint of lilac, but it smelled more like burning insence. Very sweet and delicious. I'll be looking into acquiring the 5ml of this scent.
