Thanks everybody! The other person on FB who got the same imp isn't getting Boomslang from it. I could see Candy Butcher, although it's been so long since I've tried it. Or maybe a 13....

I don't get coffee from this at all. On me it's a lovely unisex-veering towards masculine cologne that I'm not able to pick the notes out of.

I'm hoping this may be a place to find answers. I did the Goblin Grab Bag and my mystery imp is the most viscous brown oil I've ever seen, even after rolling. In the imp it's Bliss but on the skin it's a darker chocolate with a slight floral/powder note. Any ideas what it might be?

Surprising hit of the Travelogue. Blackcurrant is one of my favorite notes. The white musk is never screeching, and I never got the cacao. It dries down to a soft white musk/blackcurrant with just a little bit of wood for grounding.

Ugh. This is stinky cat pee/jasmine when it's wet, and I don't know where it's coming from. The neroli? The oudh? There's apple over top of it for sure, and it's not as bad when it drys down, but I still washed it off within 10 minutes. After scrubbing, it's traces of leather and...dryer sheets. Disappointing, I had high hopes for this one based on the notes.

I don't see this anywhere else, so here goes! I got #79. Starts out as almost a DL single note, from what I can tell from previous blends. It's got a sharper note when wet, but dries down to warm and smooth and fuzzy. I'm thinking musk and/or tobacco. A perfect fall scent!

A perfume-y apple. Not as complicated or deep as some other BPAL apple scents. I can't even pick out the other notes. Will be rehoming.

I got the cassia and cinnamon on first whiff out of the imp. This actually made the crooks of my elbows break out. I had to scrub it off within five minutes of application.

CCCXX=320 Two previous reviews can be found earlier, mentioning coconut and a tropical feel, a scent that would be at home in the Tiki Lounge. Nine years later, and this is rose. That's about it. *Maybe* a little sweetness from coconut, but nothing that I could pick up and identify before reading the reviews.

CCXLI (241) Previous reviews can be found on pages 6, 11, 12, and 14. A friend gifted me with a TON of old imps, and this is one of them. So, nine years later, we've still got a sweet cake batter smell. Maybe a touch of dry cocoa, but nothing I could have named without the previous reviews. I can also smell the Fruit Loops/dry fruit smell that was mentioned earlier. A touch of powder at this point. Nothing I'll be keeping.

Not the same dead leaf note as DL and Tobacco, DL, Vanilla, Myrrh, and Sonnet d'Automne note; it's not nearly as sharp. The whole blend is almost floral. I don't care for sandalwood by itself, but I got the tester pack for the DL scents. Husband seems to like it okay.

This is the same dl note that's in Sonnet d'Automne. It's very sharp at first, and seems almost to be a single note. I had originally set this aside for my husband; while I like the dl note, I can get it in a softer form from SdA, but the tobacco finally came out after about an hour and quieted things down nicely. I'm keeping it for now, but it still might go to him at some point, like...

Oh my yes. Same dead leaf note as Dead Leaves and Tobacco and Sonnet d'Automne, but the vanilla and myrrh are present right away. A lovely soft scent with staying power; I was still getting whiffs of it this morning from yesterday. I may have to consider getting a big bottle of this.

A sweet red musk. You can definitely smell the pom, although I'm not able to identify it as such, just sweet fruit. I never got much of the woods or incense. There was very little throw, surprising for a red musk blend. Definitely a keeper; hopefully the woods and incense will come out more as it ages and give it some depth.

These scents possess sensual, languid bases, including amber, benzoin, tonka, balsams, and dark, warm vanillas. #151 In the bottle: cherry cough syrup. Wet and dry: maybe closer to pomegranate than cherry? A touch of something else, maybe a darker wood? Incredibly faint; I can barely smell it with my nose pressed to my skin.

#193 Citrus industrial cleanser. There might be some white musk in here, and maybe a resin/incense that's going powdery on me.

#245 A couple of the reviews for this on LJ compared it to Antikytheria (sp?) Mechanism and I definitely get that. Vanilla, wood, tobacco, maybe some patch. A little sharp for my taste, so I gave it to my husband (I gave him AM as well) and it smells INCREDIBLE on him.

#65 In the imp, smells like Siberian musk. I compared it to my SN, and they're very similar. Within the first minute, there's a burst of root beer fizziness (as compared to gin/champagne fizz). What came to mind next was bubblegum, but more of the texture than the exact smell. "Fluff" was closer, like Velvet Unicorn, but without the blast of pink. There was a brief moment of more of a vanilla feel, then it was a very soft Siberian musk for the next hour. Very little throw, esp. considering I use just a dot of the SN. After about an hour, the sweet non-foody depth poked its head out a little more.

#36 Yup, that's a fougere, all right. There's some non-foody spicy-ness in the wet phase, and it's warm for a fougere, but not really distinctive. Very faint traces twelve hours later, didn't have a lot of throw.

Bubble gum and conversation hearts.

I get the butterscotch rum at the beginning, but then alas, it goes to a sweet powder on me. I really had high hopes for this one, and I'm not sure which note is the culprit. Will see if it works better on my husband.

CXXI Whoops, I never did review this. I got a decant of this years ago. It's almost Pez like at first; fruity and dusty. For some reason I'm thinking passionfruit, although I have no idea if that's accurate or not. After dry down, there's definitely roses in here somewhere. It's been so long since I tried O itself that I can't compare it to the original.

I got Zankoku Zen's imp of Luna (thank you!!) and it is truly lovely. I don't get jasmine (death note for me). It's fruity ylang-ylang and musk. I don't know if it's truly "Luna", but it's a fantastic blend.

Pink carnation, spun sugar, white pear, peach blossom, and vanilla bean. I was so incredibly excited to see that there were MLP scents! And, I do adore We Love Fine products, so I splurged, and got Shy. In the imp, it's carnation, not too spicy, with a little bit of sugar, and just a touch of pear. Wet, it stays about the same; sweet "pink" floral. I don't think I would know peach blossom as a single note, and the vanilla doesn't come out until dry down. Three hours later, there's still not much throw (appropriate, you *know* Fluttershy wouldn't want that) and it continues to be a soft carnation vanilla. Note: this came on a card, without a label.

Chaotic Evil Paladin: Meh. I can definitely smell the individual fragrances, but they really don't blend well together. Chaotic Evil Elf Paladin: Yes, this. The Elf adds a sweetness and berry-ness to it, and it is lovely. I've noticed with all the layerable scents that when they work, they *really* work.
