Wow this is fabulous!!!!!!!! Limey, lil musky, love this. Good refreshing summery. It's going on The List. My only problem is I can't say the name...

Honey Vanilla heaven. That said, it's not so foody that I feel like a cookie, it's the amber that saves it from being a cookie. Very Big Bottle worthy.

This is a wonderful berry, I love the smell of it so much, I ordered two bottles of it, and it's living in my Zocket right now, which I even sleep in. Obsessed much? *Edit* this does disappear very rapidly, so it's best in the Zocket. Still gorgeous. I am convinced now that All Bats is Good Bats for me.

So, I have been hesitating about reviewing this, as I love it so much and I had planned to hoard it all for myself, but I see someone else has foiled my ebil plan. Love this. Fresh, delicious and strawberry. Perfect. Does not last so long though, sigh... Really heavenly and rich, so very light though. I do love this.

The keeper of secrets: opoponax, Tunisian black amber, night musk, antique patchouli, zdravetz, terebinth, myrrh, and Pimenta racemosa. Well this is a little bit of heaven isn't it? Wish I had gotten, oh I don't know 10 bottles maybe? This to me is strong and complex, and lovely. I do not find the patchouli to be super overpowering, nor is anything else over whelming. heaven I say.

Two of the LE Moths and Butterflies have orchid, in the Moths it's Brahmin and in the Butterflies it's Blue Morpho. Also The Salon has three, Madonna, Bat, and Three Brides. And Oberon, from Illyria.

Wow. This starts off butterscotch for me, but that is just a five minute intro, then it's cinnamon, but a sophisticated cinnamon caramel with a bit of fruit and wood? Lovely. It is what a previous poster said, foody without being too foody. Very livable, like a comfortable velvet sofa. Strong though, but in a good way. This one lasts and lasts and lasts, the longest of any BPAL I have worn, and in my short time here, that's a lot (helps to have enabling friends). The only thing that came close to this staying power is Agape for me. I love this. Love. I hope she/he comes back when the Carnival rolls into town again.

Well, number one has to be the Mad Hatter, as it is wonderful and minty, and I do not want to be bug dinner. Second is Ya Te Vo, for refreshing green-ness. Third, is L'Heure Verte and Absinthe, very light and refreshing. And Bat of Wealth, also nice and light, and cherry. I just ordered some "summery" scents, Cloister Graveyard in the Snow (for cool mintyness), The Caterpillar for what VelvetSky said, and Josie.

I would like to cast my vote for favorite honey to be Crib Girls. I love all the Honeys from R's Garden, especially Tobacco Flower Honey. Is it strange that I am a non smoker but I love the smell of the Tobacco blends, ie. Liz, Illustrated Woman?

Ooh I am going to try your suggestion paperrose, I love to layer. astarinel, I think I have a no. 93 engine imp in my Giant Stash o' imps. I am going to dig that one out right now. OK, now, I have a new one. What do you folks feel is most similar to Red Lace?

Wow wow wow this is heaven!!!! The top note is WTF some kinda fruity something but then it morphs into wonderful sweet almondy, vanilla, fruity stuff.

I am so glad I got a frimp of this, because from the meh reviews I would prolly not have ordered a big bottle, however I LOVE this. And did just order the BB as I need something green, and this is heavenly on me. I am too unsophisticated to pick out many individual notes yet, but I do get eucalyptus or something that smells like it to me, it is uplifting and a good "wake up!" summer scent for me. Edit * I still love this, and it is a great blending scent with roses or other florals.

Just reading through this thread as I woke up yesterday wanting only green things. These are the three I have tried, and I ended up ordering the Ya Te Vo which despite some meh reviews is fantastic and green on me. Robin Goodfellow (almost too boy for me but still nice and lush green) Jabberwocky (Holy Christmas Tree Batman) Ya Te Vo (The winner so far)

this is fantastic, not artificial but very warm and lemon cookie. Delicious, and long lasting. I wear this with the psychotic cookie Hungry Ghost Moon to calm it down a bit.

Hungry Ghost Moon 2011. It's an Evil Italian Cookie. So good. I find myself wanting to smell the bottle...

This is really perfect on me. It starts out as vanilla frosting, for about 30 seconds, and then it turns into the most wonderful cherry, not a nasty or candy cherry, like the most wonderful cherry thing ever, then it is rich and wonderful like Red lace, I know it doesn't smell the same, but it has the same rich feeling. This is now at the top of the Big Bottle List.

Boomslang is awesome. Also Hellcat. When I first opened the imp I thought "eep! What the cupcake!" and slammed it shut, but I tested it tonight and found it to be lovely. And red-musky as well. not a twin of Red Lace, but a similar feeling. OK, so looking up the ingredients of Hellcat, I don't see Red Musk, which I thought was there as it is also in the amazing Luxuria bath oil. hmmm, I wonder what that is then that I love so much...

Never fails, I take a shower, douse myself with some BPAL, and I hear my daughter calling to me at the very minute I put the bottle back in the cabinet "Mommy! You got a package!" Sigh. So I tried this one, but I have to retry later, as it was lovely, but quite faint. Still lovely though, and the sugar note is not too YOU ARE FOOD NOW. Note from more than a year and a half later, this one is really so good, there are some days when I just have to have it, although I have not gone through the whole bottle yet, it's still a great "burnt sugar" scent. Not too sweet, not too girly.

Holy Moly. Best Snake Ever. Delicious. The chocolate stays only for a bit, and leaves a most heavenly version of Snake Oil. It did remind me of Shalimar, which is OK by me. Shalimar is a perfume I have loved my entire life and can't wear, as it makes my skin break out in red welts. yeech.

Red Lace is heaven.

This is pure heaven, and it will be in my next order. It's rich and heavy, but not headachey, and there are no unpleasant notes for me. Gorgeous. It's like a medieval tapestry, beautiful and intricate.

Oooh this is kind of great, very heavy though, and smokey. This is going on the Must to be Buying list. Oh, and lasts and lasts.

An effervescent blend of crystalline champagne notes and sweet strawberry. Lesse les bon temps rolle. Bon Vivant is very fun. Fruity, strawberry, and actually a tickly note (champagne, duh) I like this one, doesn't stay too long though...

Tried this today, it's now on The Big Bottle Wishlist. Creamy sugary cinnamon heaven.

Silk Road anyone? I have one imp that came to me, it is My Precious...
