Eat Me Another one with a name that I couldn't resist! In the bottle: Cake with an undercurrent of... well maybe currant? On me: The cake scent becomes perfumy then quickly fades and leaves not much behind. I guess my skin did "eat" it. edit: After wearing this the rest of the evening, a scent, reminiscent of other BPAL cake/foody scents, did emerge. I asked my Sweetie to tell me what he thought it smelled like and he was reminded of incense. Maybe that was the vanilla. All in all, not a favorite, but not sure about letting it go either.

Dirty I usually try not to read the review of a scent until after I have reviewed it so as not to be influenced by other opinions. But, for some reason I just couldn't review without reading first. I am so on the line with this scent. I don't dislike it and I don't love it. I feel very neutral about it and that is unusual for me. I'm kinda a black and white type person. Now on the the review... In the bottle: Fresh, but in a soft, not sharp, way. On me: Nice. I believe that the clean laundry description is accurate. Very mild. Lovely, but not for me. I like my scent a bit more unique.

Monster Bait: Closet In the bottle: butter cream On me: Yes, the butter cream from other BPAL loves that I have! The scent moves into the next stage with blueberries, not too sweet but full and ripe, with a bit of cake. After a time a smoky scent mingles in. Reminding me of Incantation, strangely enough. I do like it!!

Katharina In the bottle: Orange On me: Apricot and I thought Patchouli, but not in the description. Apricot or Orange do not usually work for me, but in this it works. It must be because it is orange blossom. A juicy sweet blend. Nice!

Bright, sweet and youthful, but swelling with a poisonous sexuality. Glittering heliotrope, honeysuckle, orange blossom and lemon verbena. Lolita In bottle: orange citrus On me: Wanted this for a summer scent and it is going to work for me! Yay! At first a nice citrus. The orange, which I have trouble wearing, blending in beautifully. I get a sexy blend of citrus and heliotrope, which I love! The honeysuckle is in the background to round out a light fresh fragrance.

Glasgow In the bottle: Sort of sweet, juicy with a hint of green. On me: A bit of berries at first. Then the green/plant scent is dominant. A lovely outdoor kind of scent. I would love to step outdoors and smell this, but not sure that I want to smell like this. I need to branch out from my favorite foody/sweet/spicy scents, but it is hard!

Carnal In the bottle: Sweet orange On me: Orange and a sharp, fresh earthiness (just as in the description). I am unhappy because orange scents just don't like me or maybe I don't like them on me.

Baobhan Sith In the bottle: citrus On me: Citrus, yes it could be grapefruit. I dries and changes to a powdery floral. Not bad, but... I had my Sweetie sniff it and he kinda liked it. I might have to try again and revise!

Grog In the bottle: Butter rum lifesavers candy. Yum! Oh no! At first, I could only smell that vegetable oil scent that I also got from MB Underbed. What? But then, rich creamy rum. Gar! I even get a whiff of the cask it was stored in!

Lightning In the bottle: lemon On me: At first lemon. Then it becomes rain or the scent that precedes rain. I thought that it would be wonderful to smell like rain, but this is very strong on me. It reminds me of air freshener. Maybe I should try to use it as a home scent. I will have to check into how to do this. Because it is actually very beautiful, just very dominant on my skin.

Monster Bait: Underbed In bottle: chocolate cake On me: At first, dust. Which is appropriate for something under the bed. Then it smells like vegetable oil. Again, this is a cake ingredient. But not very good scents for the body! However, after about 1/2 hour it mellows into a smoky sweetness. Even longer and more deliciousness emerges. Something boozy comes thru and tops off the scent. I wish it was a bit stronger though. I was determined to love all the Monster Baits! This one is my second to try. And my second favorite to Underpants. Next comes Closet.

Tiger Lily In the bottle: Spicy lily On me: This is a wonderfully changing scent! At first it is lily, but not the Easter lily that I don't like. A creamy lighter version. Then I begin to get a honey/slightly citrus blend. It all comes together for another floral that I actually like! Amazing!

Grand Guginol In the bottle: Apricot On me: It becomes sour. Too bad, I was looking forward to this one. I am coming to realize that apricot doesn't work well on me. Even thought I thought I would like to smell fresh and fruity!

Chaos Theory 2: XI (11) This came to me in a swap with zenvodunista In bottle: a blast of fresh sweet lime On me: A fresh lime margarita! Oh I love margaritas!! I first I thought mint or orange, but no it is lime. I agree with the green description, but maybe the greeny yellow of Margarita mix (can't get that out of my head, may have to have one soon!). Throughout the day I kept catching the scent and the lyrics from Def Leppard kept running thru my mind, "I'm hot, sticky sweet, from my head down to my feet". (oh yeah!) I did become a bit sweeter and kinda reminded me of Fee, but not quite. Another favorite! Thanks, Nicole!! Previously reviewed by zenvodunista and olympia301.

Shango In the bottle: Grape soda pop On me: Still grape pop. I wanted this to smell fruity and summery, with the depth some of you have noticed. But all I get is a candy, like sweet tarts, scent. Darn. (edit: I read Babylon's review and yes it does smell like Runts!)

Pluto In the bottle: I don't know On me: Definitely masculine. Like hugging my Grandpa when he's dressed up. I can agree with classic on this.

Luna In the bottle: Wet, murky floral On me: Heavy, wet floral. It reminds me of New Orleans. Too much floral for me. But when dry the heaviness recedes and becomes lighter, more airy. After wearing it for about an hour it has become beautiful! An undertone of floral, with a bit of sweet spiciness on top. This is probably the only floral scent that I have liked.

March Hare I want to love this. I mean, apricot and sweet clove? Yum!! In the bottle: sweet apricot, BPAL style. On me: I am reminded of candy, maybe "Smarties?". I like foody scents, but not so sure about candy ones. I am not getting a clove scent at all. Darn!

Twilight Lavender, jasmine and honeysuckle. I wish I could recognize these scents separately, because on me one(or more) of them is overpoweringly floral. In a way that is slightly nauseating. I believe that in the outdoors these are delicious scents. But on me I just can't take the floral. Too bad, the thought of wearing twilight seems appealing.

Fee Thank you Shollin for making this possible! In the bottle: Fresh, ripe melon On me: Luscious! Oh my, I was looking for a summery scent and yes, this is it! At first it is all melon. But spiked melon, intoxicating. As I wear it, it doesn't fade, it surrounds me, becomes juicer. I am picking up some sunflower and the vanilla isn't apparent, but adds creaminess. I have found some peach scents that do not like me, but the peach blossom does. I just looked lychee up on the web and found that it is a fruit. So that must give some depth to the melon/fruit scent. I love this!! I will try to get more. Hey, I wore this the next day and kept getting the vanilla/carnation scent from this. Oh, I like it even more!

Sudha Segara In the bottle: On me: A sharp, bright scent, almost tangy. But when it dries, I don't smell anything. I will wear this and edit if need be. This has shown me to never try anything new during my monthly time. I tried it again because I just couldn't accept my first try. And this time, oh my, utter spicy ginger! Smoothed with milk, honey and ambrosia. And to think that I almost swapped this.

Santa Eularia Des Riu In the bottle: Citrus with an undertone of floral, not sure if it might be jasmine or lavender. On me: Oh, I like the citrus! But after it dries it becomes too floral for my taste. I will probable add this to my swap list.

Dragon's Milk In the bottle: Sweet incense. On me: I get the Easter Lily smell that ladymissspyder noticed. I don't like the smell of them. I guess this one won't work for me. Too bad. I wonder if it is the Dragon's Blood? Since this is my first Dragon scent, I will have to try the others to get a comparison.

Beaver Moon mmm..cheesecake and cupcakes! In the bottle: exactly like cake. On me: The same. At first I thought this would be one that would fade on me. But after a few hours the scent has become richer, creamy and warm, like cake right from the oven. This one makes me want to lick my skin! Interesting!

Hollywood Babylon In the bottle: Sweet black cherry. what is in this that reminds me of F54? On me: Love it! Still the cherry, but smoky and sexy. The amber and musk give it a deeper scent. A quick search revealed that heliotrope may have a cherry pie aroma. Hmm, I had no idea. After a couple of hours, it begins to get an incense scent, but nice and not strongly enough to turn me off. I think this is a keeper!
