This is beautiful and exactly what I needed to go with all my chocolate perfumes. The dark chocolate is delicious and the tea and patchouli are very nicely balanced and don't overwhelm.

This starts off Patchouli but a slightly more sophisticated one , but changes to a sort of sparkly thing that I can't put my inexorable finger on but is gorgeous. I have gotten compliments on this, it's just amazing

Pretty foody and totally wearable

This is very pretty sort of boy cologne, the word Patchouli makes me buy things. I like it and have been wearing it paired with The Inexorable Finger

Lovely and green, just what I wanted

Well I don't know what to make of this one, it surely is unique. I don't know actually what I'm smelling but it does have a backbone no weak stuff here. I don't know, it doesn't smell like the labs snow note to me. It smells purple. Me and it are working to get along. This is all

To me Vanilla Bean Noel smells just like certain versions of Boo, they are completely twins

2015. Seemingly I did not wear this much last year, but wow this year will be different as this is a lovely deep musky Incense on me that wafts and hangs around in a most dreamy way. Sexy and dark in a Third Charm sort of way but with the red musk being less prominent

Blergh. This was a total blind bottle whim purchase with my husbands Xmas Hellboy and Lady Death. It makes me so mad. If I had known this was so good I would have ordered 27 bottles. Incense! Incense! Incense! Starts of strange with the hazelnut then turns into Amazing.

Hellboy. All the Dawns. Lyonesse. Twenty One. Avenger.

I have to say the one that I am hoping makes a reappearance is from the Carnival, Stormclouds Over the Midway. To me that was an amazing evocation of a rainstorm in the summer.

Having adored the original, I was eager to try this one and it does not disappoint. Easily as beautiful as the original. I don't get a strong cinnamon note, and the smokey aspect is very nicely blended with the other things. This is a darker heavier scent, absolutely a must have for me.

This is beautiful, and the patchouli is very wearable. I like it just as well as the original, and the bottle art is glorious.

Wow. I never reviewed this? This is my husbands favorite BPAL outside of Hellboy. He tends to go for flowery things, and he amps the heck out of whatever jasmine is in here. I see the Wood of Jasmine, maybe that's it. Whatever it is, it's beautiful on him. I have never worn it myself, but it's his nightime go to, and it's lovely, very sweet flowery and musky. Also I might note my husband does love him some jasmine and mostly wears more feminine leaning things, but this does not make him smell effeminate. Not that it would be a bad thing for someone else, but he's sort of a hulking very butch guy, but this works on him absolutely. Making an order for my sixth bottle of this...better buy two...

All Third Charm is good Third Charm. For me this is one of the all time best BPALs, right up there with Sentimental Journey for red musk sexiness. Rich and lovely, intense. I love Snake Oil, don't get me wrong, but for me Third Charm is a bit more rich and deep, more like Scheherazade in it's composition if that makes any sense, whereas Snake Oil is a bit more forthright. Also Third Charm is less vanilla sweet on me, more fruity red musk. I am a huge fan of Beth's honey notes, but I don't smell it here, in either version but that might just be me. Not a good PTA meeting scent, unless it's the Harper Valley PTA, but I digress.

This is actually quite strong. I had to have it due to label art and name, please, had to. The rose is the old fashioned dried rose thing, not a fresh rose, but the iris is a bit of a stronger presence to me. Overall a pleasant inoffensive thing, true rose lovers should explore it. I often crave that old timey rose thing, horrifyingly called "old lady" by some. You know I had to pop in to amend this review just a bit, to say how much I am loving this one. It's really full and beautiful, not as innocuous as I first thought. Definitely a statement, and one that I am liking, old fashioned but not tired.

This is a lot like My Mommy in a Boat, which is a good thing. It is aquatic but has a grounding sweetness to it on me. note though, I tend to turn things sweet, your mileage may vary.

You know, the 2012 one was so light on me, I thought, but my husband seems to love it so I am going to get this years too. To me it's very well blended and almost herbal, but my nose is maybe off.

I love this one. It's a perfect neutral Dead Leaves HG that I can wear with my BPAL Dead Leaves things.

Attention fans of Sugar Skull and Lemon Scented Sticky Bats. Buy this right away. It's glorious, with that same delicious lemon from those two. The pumpkin stuff gives it great backbone, this is no wispy lemon scent. Gorgeous. Fresh. Winning.

Lately I have worn the heck out of : Third Charm Dead Leaves and Whatever Feeding the Dead Bruised Violet

Anesthesia for the win! It's the most amazing cooling mint and lavender. I absolutely have to have at least one and a backup at all times.

The spirits concur: misty bourbon vanilla and lemon sugar. I was so excited that the goblins picked this one for me! The lemon is super juicy, the whole of it is nice and light. Yes, being always the right answer... I thought it would remind me of Lemon Scented Sticky Bat, but it's fresher and juicier, less candy like.

Strangely does not remind me of Boo, but is just glorious and last s for ten hours or more. So very winning

Honey absolute, honey myrtle, and white frankincense. I dies. This couldn't have been any more perfect for me, beautiful honey and frankincense. This one is not too strong in scent, good for layering with just about anything, resins, foody stuff, flowers... This is The Perfect Blender. Also the formula is a nice light spray, so I can reapply even on dry hair, and I don't look like a cow licked me.
