    Strawberry Moon 2009

    Fresh ripe strawberries and the grass note in Blade of Grass (my opinion). This is different than the 05 version. I like them both but if I had to choose I'd pick 05.

    June Gloom 2009

    I don't know why but on me this one smells a bit beachy in the background with light florals on top. Very pretty and light. It's not an "In your face" floral (on me that is). If you like Bobbie Brown's "Beach" then you may like this.

    Velvet Unicorn

    Love this one! It reminds me of Midway but much stronger and a bit sweeter. It's a keeper.

    Velvet Clown

    I can't pick out any one note in this. All I can say is it's sweet. Wanted to be able to smell the cotton candy & peanuts but nope it ain't happenin.

    Velvet Bandito

    Bandito is related to Pickled Imp. PI is a bit sweet though. I like them both.

    Baby Scent

    I second Gladdener and I also think Milk Moon 05 smells like a baby. I'm staying at my Mom and Dad's right now and last night a friend of ours came over to visit and she brought her grandbaby Tei (OH MY GOSH CUTE!!!) and he smelled sooooo good! I asked my friend about it and she said it was his baby shampoo but couldn't remember what kind. I'll have to call her and make her look. It was that sweet clean smell almost beachy but not.

    Champagne and Cigars

    In the bottle: Very fizzy smelling. I'm just waiting for the bubbles to hit my nose. On: I'm not getting any tobacco (that I can tell) All champagne and bubbly smelling. I'm almost certain this shares a common note that is in Te Po. Another scent I love.

    The Pit & The Pendulum

    Retail Only version. Resinous, sweet incense. If you like this and run out try the GC Al-Azif ... P&P smells just like Al-Azif on me.

    Coxcomb

    I can't explain this scent. It has a very mysterious vibe to it. it!! I wore it up to my Mom's b-day party and when I hugged my Dad he said "Ooh you smell good, what is that?" My husband also like's it. Soooo it's a keeper! ETA: I love it layered with Marotte.

    Limited editions equivalents in the general catalog?

    I'm not sure if this is the right place to put this so feel free to move it if needed. Love Spooky? Layer Sugar Cookie (mine is 05), Tokyo Stomp & Grog. I like it better than Spooky.

    Looking for a BPAL that Resembles a Favorite Perfume

    Try to track down a "aged" decant of Banana Peel in a Graveyard. I tried my aged decant the other day and it smelled just like Polo (on me). My husband also wears Polo so I compared it to his bottle and was really surprised.

    Searching for the Perfect Vanilla?

    Have you tried Tombstone? That one turns into a fab vanilla on my skin.

    What scents are masculine? Gender-neutral?

    Someone sent me a decant of Banana Peel in a Graveyard and when I first tried it on the banana lasted all of 1 min but 4 or so months later as it aged the banana has staying power. It reminds me of Polo (the original green bottle).

    Thanks so much for posting the Velvet pictures. I wonder what the Le Mat series will look like and I'm really surprised there are no reviews for those yet. No one has got the Le Mat set yet. The first CnS's just went out today. I should have mine on thursday and will post pics when I get them SWEET!!

    What do bottles and labels look like?

    You're right! I've never noticed before, but there is definitely something different with the Alice label. Side by side with another GC label, you can see there is something on Alice that is not on the other GC labels. Yes, I see her ... how cute. Does anyone have a picture of the Norn's Farmhouse?

    The Queen's Salon

    I have no clue what is in this. Sniffing the bottle: It smells really good. I'd say spicy/floral ... in a way it reminds me of Bearded Lady & Gypsy Queen On me: It doesn't work so well. Dang skin chemistery. How very sad!

    Agapē

    This reminds me of Creepy ... maybe it's the same apple scent used in that. Anyway I am glad I got a bottle and at $12.50 who wouldn't? It's a keeper!

    Oooh pretty! I love the tree branches in the background.

    BPAL similar to Bobbi Brown Beach?

    Yeah, layering the lotion with the fume makes it last a long time. Actually, the lotion maybe just enough for you (without the fume). The lotion is really strong on me.
