Favorite Scents
Anything complex and evocative. I like when scents are very cold or very warm. Woods are nice. I like musk, and foresty smells. Anything sweet is perfect. Florals are nice, but rose isn't my favorite. I don't think things sharp or sour, bitter or savory. Wine and fermenty fruits are borderline. Sweet almond is gross.

Allergy Questions, Allergies and other reactions to oils
inktree replied to friendthegirl's topic in BPAL FAQs
That's a good idea! I'm mildly allergic to all flowers, so I haven't noticed anything odd about real lilies in particular, but maybe the concentrated perfume oil is messing with me? I've noticed a couple other blends giving me the same sort of reaction, so I'll definitely see if they have lilies (or anything else) in common. Thanks! -
FAVORITES Apple!!! Vanilla Cider White florals Sugar/Candy Any juicy fruit (not dried) Orange Cream Baked goods/pastry/oatmeal Soap/clean linen Sweet pea Tea Coconut IFFY Jasmine Rose Lily Lilac Cinnamon Melon Fig Tree-y scents, e.g. pine needles Green/grassy smells (like them, but usually not on me) Leaves Frankincense, myrrh, other resins - love them, but highly dependent on other notes Coffee - can be a little much Chocolate/cocoa? haven't tried it yet! LEAST FAVORITES Anise/licorice/pernod Almond ! Makes me nauseous 99% of the time. Meat/Savory Bitter/Sour notes Wine Plum Honey Woodsy, musty, e.g. oak "Raw" smelling sandalwood Leather (half the time smells like soap to me, other half it smells like... leather. neither is great.) Mint/menthol

Allergy Questions, Allergies and other reactions to oils
inktree replied to friendthegirl's topic in BPAL FAQs
Has anyone had a bad reaction to Ulalume? I actually have a pretty extensive laundry list of allergies/asthma when it comes to trees etc., but it didn't occur to me that they might extend to perfumery! A whiff of this one closes my throat up pretty quick. And I have no idea which note's the culprit. Anyone else have a guess?
