Looking for a BPAL that Resembles a Favorite Perfume
beachbabealways replied to Ina Garten Davita's topic in Recommendations
Ok this is not a perfume but I'd really like to find something that smells like B&BW's True Blue Morocco Cedarwood & Spice. I just love that scent!! I'm so ticked that they pulled this line. Here's what B&BW has on their site ... The sunswept land of Morocco and the pristine Mediterranean is renowned for its rich, exotic spices. This authentic spa treatment combines invigorating Moroccan spices with red cedar for a warming body scrub that gently smoothes skin as it exhilarates the senses. Cumin seed extract, cardamom extract and shea butter condition and soothe while cedar wood extract invigorates, leaving skin polished and soft. In this exotic fragrance, creamy sensations of sandalwood and cedarwood perfectly blend with warm milk, balsam vanilla, amber and musk. -
TKO has the Triple Dagger: Thank you so much!
-
Does TKO have the same kind of label as GRR! OOF! etc?
-
Limited editions equivalents in the general catalog?

The Musk Thread! Need to know what type is for you?
beachbabealways replied to SKiser's topic in Recommendations
I'm also in love with Arabian musk. Once I have bought Arabian musk from the site www.thepurplepeople.org . This scent is to die for Arabian and White musks are different in my opinion. Arabian musk is a bit more chilly. I compared the Body shop white musk and arabian musk from purplepeople. They are absolutely different. Arabian musk is better.... I love this scent alone..... However, I haven't tried a BPAL oil taht contains Arabian musk... Oh my gosh ... thank you so much! I bought a couple bottles of Snake Charmer (it has AM in it) when it came out the second time but it smelt dirty (to me) or like bad BO. :yikes: -
The Musk Thread! Need to know what type is for you?
beachbabealways replied to SKiser's topic in Recommendations
I just bought a few bars of soap from a lady in Dallas and it's called Arabian Musk. Oh I see her once a year so it will be a long time before I can get more soap. Is Arabian musk and White musk the same thing? I just adore the Arabian and would love to find a perfume with lot's of it in it. I don't even care if it's by another company. Any recommendations? -
I was frimped a decant of this (Thank you Dark Alice) and it smells like Thin Mints in the vial and while wet on my skin but the dry down (on me) smells just like Egg'd Mailbox. A very soft sweet pretty floral. Oh why oh why did it do that??? I have Egg'd so won't be needing a bottle of this.

Another preview label ... this time from Hellboy.

OMG!!! Cake Smash preview label! How damn cute is that?!?!

I kept sniffing this on my arm and it reminded me of some candy I used to eat but couldn't put my finger on it until I read TheIceMaiden & GypsyRoseRed's reviews and I think they hit the nail on the head. It smells like red Twizzlers but with cinnamon. Years ago when I was in Middle School we used to go across the street to this Health Food store and they sold these huge ropes of red licorice, it was the best licorice ever and it was like 3 feet long ... HH smells just like it. I'm loving this. It brings back fond memories for me.

I'm thinking your right. It's not the 2006 because I had that one and the one your talking about came out before it. ETA: It is the 2005 version ... I found it in the Gallery.

Love it!

The original Underbed is one of my all time favorite bpal's so I really wanted to try this. No coconut (one of my favorite notes) and I don't pick up on any cocoa. Ok after wearing this the other day I have finally figured out what this smells like .... Snickerdoodle Cookies!!
-
All I get is creamy gardenia and lemon. Very pretty indeed!
-
Yep, bubble gum for sure. It really reminds me of jailbait but much stronger. It smells like the gum you find in the quarter machines, it's square and the colors are green, white, red, pink & yellow. Chew them all together and you have Lolita v2.

Thanks to the forum member who let me try this out (you know who you are ) On me this smells like buttered toast with marmalade. I'm loving it!

Ok, soooo who stole my Stinky?!?! There is no stink in this bottle! Now a wet dog ... that's stinky but thanks Beth for not making that scent. This is not what I expected at all, it reminds me a lot of Gladdner of All Hearts. Since I have a bottle of that I found cute lil Stinky a new home.

The Phantom Cow of Yerba Buena Island
beachbabealways replied to midnight_aeval's topic in Event Exclusive Oils
Ooooh I am loving this!! It's the milk note from Milk Moon 05 (not the 07 Pina Colada version) and herbs but I can smell black pepper also (like was in Ichabod Crane). Absolutely NO oregano in my bottle. I think it depends on skin chemistry and thankfully I have skin that loves almost 99.9% of BPAL's oils. -
Thanks Eyeska ... can you give us mini reviews of them or put them in some catagory like Aquatic, resin, foody etc? Catch the info over here. Thanks. I feel very bad for you, I've spilled a bottle before and it was horrible. I will tell you the wood on my side of the bed smelled fabulous for a long time (Antique Lace). Everynight I could smell it so at least I was able to enjoy it.

Anyone have pics of the WKAP scents? Please share the love.

Comptoir Sud Pacifique came out with a perfume back in 1976 called Eau Grise. It's really a uni-sex perfume but it's listed in the men's category. Anyway, Mole smells just like it. I have a vintage bottle of EG and compared the two and it's amazing how much alike they are. I'd think this has civet in it although it is not listed as one of the notes. Mole is fantastic and so glad I swapped for a bottle of it.

A cross between Milk Moon & Eden. Very pretty!!

Oh how cute! I almost didn't see the goat on Nonae.

Oooh I'd like to see the garden stuff too. No pinwheel review yet.
