Just in case anyone does someday, I have flown from Dublin to Stockholm with 5 imps and two bottles - I wrapped them up in a redline-bag and just took them on carry-on. That said, I've never encountered a european airport where bringing up to 100 ML was not allowed as long as they were sealed and safe. I think that's in the EU rules even - not sure about that though.

I have no idea myself, but if you are new, there is a chance you haven't find the search engine yet, so I put Patchouli, Vanilla, Lavender into it and it gave only one hit for All of them: http://www.bpal.org/search/index.php?term=patchouli+vanilla+lavender&mybutton=1&search=1 You'll get replies from people that know what they are talking about too, but this at least is what I found

I've started to mainly just put it in my hair and a little bit on my neck - it stays Forever in my hair and the little bits on my neck makes it smell me+perfume, so I find it evens out and makes me have to slather slightly less. I started this after I noticed most of my day-wear favourites (Womb Furie and Alice, mainly, but also Pink Phoenix) smell Divine but not very strong (like my skin EATS them) so I'd have to tip half the bottle over myself to get any actual scent out of it - in my hair, I can use much less and still have it smell lovely. As for my evening-favourites (Wanda and Blood Kiss mainly, currently) they go on my neck and my wrists and seem to do the job like that (they get Very strong when applied to my hair, but that works great for parties - less so for, for example, meals out and stuff

I'm sort of glad the forums were down on the day I got my shipment because I was in "waaahwaaahwaah" mode at the moment - now, I may have calmed down a little. I was worried about Womb Furie/Fury - I Wanted to love it, and that's usually not a good thing for me - sometimes, I Want to love stuff just for the name or description and then get all sad when they don't work on me. Womb Furie is the very pinnacle of this - I wantwantwant it to work on me - I want to love it, I want it to love me and I want to live happily ever after with it. And - turns out, I do. In the bottle, it is very much like O, I must admit - and while I instantly fell for O the moment I sniffed it, it always made me annoyed because I felt Something was missing - well - I have that covered now Womb Furie smells like O but with something (to me) smoother and slightly poisonous swirling in the background - and it smells Red and golden. I have no idea what color Snake Oil is - and I have never smelled Snake Oil ( ) but there is something Red present here. It sticks fairly close to my skin and what does spread around me is more like a golden-red mist of awesome - it's...not heavy, more like...smoke. swirling around me, if that makes sense. Co-worker was...I'm unsure if she liked it or not - she said I smelled as if I was wearing two perfumes; one sticky and sweet and one almost orientally incensy, which to me sounds like she felt it wasn't very well blended (as she sort of got the two mixes pinned down - but separately) but in the next breath, she asked me to bring my imp-collection as she might be interested in ordering something with me, so I Suspect that's a positive Wet and freshly applied on skin, I get something like LUMPS of fruity honey if that makes sense - very hard to explain - smells delicious, but a bit over the top. What I assume is Snake Oil comes out to play after about 5-10 minutes and makes it a winner for me - I must admit in some ways, it reminds me of Debauchery - but where Debauchery had a very obvious "brown" note present, this is all red, gold and magic. It's a damn good thing this beauty isn't going down until after my next payday, because here shall be bottles hoarded. Didn't like it and want to sell/swap? Poke me

Triple post; this is from when the forums were broken - so sorry about this.

Triple post; this is from when the forums were broken - so sorry about this.

No suggestions there, sorry - I am personally hoping to find something like Qntal - Stella Splendens - if it at all exists. http://www.youtube.com/watch/?v=RuK45r1S0M0 I am mainly after that one on loud volume where it turns into the very feeling of religious rapture and dedication and RUSH that they have somehow managed to make pagan and divine rather than the boring and Guilty tone I personally (no offense to the christians out there) relate to christianity. Does a scent, a color, a flower, an emotion, an event - anything - but mainly of course a scent, come for you to this song? Let me know - this is my new love and I wish to live With it and Inside it forever and ever <3 I am sort of scared to go home from work tonight cause I don't have it in this version on my Ipod and so will have to endure 40 minutes without it (yeah, I get silly )

Yeah, this was forumglitch, apologies for this, I figured it hadn't posted at all, but seems it did - trying again OP looked like this: "Please forgive me for posting this, it is a long shot, but - is there anyone out there who has is incredible at picking out notes or even recognizing Bpal oils from just smelling them? I have something here, which has a ripped label and must have been a frimp in...some trade or the other - but I've traded so much lately that I don't even remember who and stupidly, I have also removed most PM communications and blahablaha. (I had a downperiod during a shiftchange, after multiple trades where I just dumped everything into a box and went "I'll test it Later" - it likely arrived somewhere between...well...november and now, so I can't figure out from who and when ) Label visibly says "Bpal" so likely decanted and much-traded - that's it. I am pretty sure it has violet, but a rather (to me) soft one - and it smells (again, to me) creamy-powdery and Greenish. It could possibly have some sort of patchouli even though I hate that and I love this, so I am not sure I am actively hunting all Violet-Bpals I can find (so far, no match - closest is The Raven, but that one has too Much violet and is too Bright to me) I'll happily pay for shipping this thing across the world several rounds if I can just find someone who can tell me what it is so I can buy 17 or so bottles, cause the imp is running low and that is scary :/ So - is there anyone out there who actually thinks they could identify it from just sniffing it? I'll pay or trade stuff or send you things that glitter. (apologies if this post is just stupid - very likely - or if it should be somewhere else...but asking hopefully won't hurt and I can maybe be moved to the correct thread if this already exists ) Danke. /Kat"

Got in a swap and made me had to order from BPTP - though I didn't order this one, cause I wanted to test other things while at it - sort of regretting that now - it is awesome - like everyone else has said, it is all clean and uplifting and fresh. For me, it's more like...yes, I guess that's - it an "atmosphere" rather than a pinpointable scent once used - it just makes everything prettier <3

Delicious - smells strongly of something like candy and rain and too many a night of my childhood (not the happy, innocent times, but the dark and still today fascinating ones) I need this. I could totally see myself using this to feel sexy or when in the mood to be a bit Special - lovely, and yummy and even the musk is ok with me (doesn't happen too often, so worth celebrating)

Smells awesome - could have sworn there was something pepper-corn'ish in there, but I may be wrong. I also get something like wood - this oil fascinates me, and if I ever get a toolshed, I will paint that with this, just to help it on the way towards the perfect smell. ...That sounds like an insult to poor Yorick - it is anything but!

I like this - Rose scents aren't among my usual favourites (cause they give me a headache and turn to dust, powder or stink on me) This one is juicy and Round - a bit close to my skin, perhaps. The fruity aspect is there and while I Can differentiate between both the rose and the pomegranate, I can also smell what they do Together - well-blended, inviting and delicious. Keeping the imp, we'll see what happens after that

Urgh, got this traded from someone who could very much have had better use for it than me - I missed out on the word "Patchouli" and here I sit smelling...well...bad. It's my one major death note, it seems

Wet, this was all and only celery on me - as it dries down, it keeps that character, but there's something more dark-green and juicy to it now as well. Not something I'd be likely to wear - but I can't actually say it's bad in any way. I like smelling it, just I'm not sure "perfume" is what it says to me. It's more, again, like recalling all the forests of my childhood (This particular one would be the summer cottage down by Stockholms coast that we'd visit with my grandmother and her sister ) I will keep the imp - this susprises me greatly, as it was just "celery" to begin with. Now, it's green, magic and very Pleasant in an untamed way. May be for oil burner - to give a feel of sitting in the forest near the water, of the...well, sorry, but marshier kind

This was a surprise - musk in all versions tend to smell Horrible soon as they land on my skin. I was re-arranging my perfume-shelf to fit some new purchases and hadn't actually tried this one yet (I got sick of musk-smells and constant headaches and so just forgot about it) swiped some on my arm in passing, sniffed it and Actually yelped out loud. It seems to be something about my skin, but seriously (!) This smells like candy gone corrupt and adult - it is divine. AND I have no headache. This will be a bottle for me.

Just to clarify; Absolutely nothing wrong with being 40 - or 50 or 60 or 70 and so on - but I'm just about 30, and by my own standards, I want to feel roughly 30 - not 40 and not 20 Thanks for many tips - I think it was the price increases on shipping that kind of halted my extravagant "buy Everything"-streak, so this helps me sort a bit For this shipment, it'll be The Vine - and also Womb Furie (which is not Pear at all - but it seems such a classic it'd be a shame not to try it when I am ordering anyways ) as it'll be more of a rush to get LE's before they aren't available anymore - GC can go in next order

I Love Katharina in the spring, it seems - it is fruity, bubbly, light, alive, sparkly and everything I could ask for - well, except Pears. You Bpal veterans, is there anything out there that has the sparkly (almost carbonated) feel of Katharina, but focuses on Pear? I tried searching "pear white musk" (more or less the only musk that doesn't give me a headache or make me seem 40 or older) on the Search - I also tried "Pear Vanilla" (cause the idea sounds nice) and "pear cream" (yum) but none of them seem to have what I'm looking for - and just "pear" returned 94 hits So - Katharinas sparkly, carbonated, spritzy and bubbly feel - but with Pear? (Tbh, all other notes seem to have a dedicated thread, so feel free to recommend Pear-smells of all kinds - but I want the pear to be the dominant smell, not just a Detail )

Hollywood Babylon, on a side note, didn't smell Anything like that on me - it smelled nice, but nowhere like the description - possibly because I amp red musk to headache-levels. So if you are a red-musk-amper, beware (not to ruin the tip or anything - just as info )

Nice - thank you - I will be sure to check these out

VERY odd - grain vodka o.O

Wicked and sinister? Oh, not at all. On me, at least, it is naughty and playful. Warm room like a cave, reddish light. Small female creature with pointed ears sticking out of messy, shoulder-length, bloodred hair. Pale copper skin, small, smooth tail - she's crouching, smiling and whipping her tail. She has very small, almost silly, fangs and a slightly protruding spine, skin soft as silk, and as fur, and she smiles like teasing before she either dashes away and hides - or jumps you and tumbles round and round, to end up on top of you, hands on your chest, still smiling with her eyes glittering and her tail stroking your thigh. Playful, naughty but innocent in that she is really just playing - she isn't seeking effect or pretending any moods - the perfect little hellish imp and you will love her. Ehm, sorry, I know some people don't like the whole visual part - but I so rarely have them in relation to perfume - and whne the name is as perfectly suited as now as well - and so when I do, I like to tell them

Bought on impuls when hunting something else. I won't regret it. I grew up in the swedish forest, there were moose and wolves and even the occasional bear back then (some 20 years ago, when I was old enough to lol around by myself without falling in the local swamp or managing to tumble down the local mountain in 5 pieces) I used to play in the forest, on the fields and in the mountain - there was a small stream that went rather deep into the forest that I particularly liked. This smells almost Exactly as the darker parts of the forest by the stream - it takes me back to the fantasy land of childhood and I Love it <3

I didn't read all 19 pages, sorry. Roses give me a headache - Two, Five & Seven does not - so that's my rec

I wanna - I wanna I am 29, but my brain is 17. I am female, short, round and look like one of them statues from ages ago (that is to say; I have short legs, huge hips, no tits, narrow shoulders and look lumpy - but I try to be positive, and as such, I look like an old statue instead) I love purple, cars, festivals, I have been described as "more" as well as "intense" I am incredibly loud, can be besserwisser'ish and horrible - I am perfectionist and have diagnosis stating both Bipolar and Aspergers - not that I let that get in the way in any way, it just means that when stuff seems depressing or horrible or I feel genuinely suicidal or just Bad, I go "meh, this is just a symptom, it is not real" and then I power on. I am potentially going to be single forever, which is very sad, but I can't quite see anyone actually falling for me - there's too Much of me. Love tends to be aimed at Other people, not me. Sure, that makes me sad, but whatever. I can not live without singing and dancing - possibly literally, I've never gone without it long enough to find out, thankfully. I am my grandfathers pride - because I can work as hard as the men in the family. My father thinks I'm a princess but he was Incredibly pleased when I turned my interest to building festivals and fixing cars, as he then suddenly knew what to get for Xmas every year. I love intensity in all forms. Bad sides? I am so scared of failure that I never DO things. This is Crippling in day to day life. I have no life-dreams (I had one; to sing, but since I am apparently tone deaf too, that broke Very early) aside from winning many millions and living in a mansion with a few slaves Oh yes - and I am "cute" when I smile. Uhm...what is there for me? Also, roses give me a headache

Lovely and delicious and beautiful. It's not my style and it is far too..I don't know...classically perfume'y...? for me. I am glad I tried it and it would smell absolutely divine on anyone else (and in truth, it does on me too, just...it's not ME)
