This scent was ok, unfortunately I was looking at this to be a grapefruit scent, and I primarily got bergamot out of it. It's like grapefruit, where did you go!!!!
-
It's a very light citrus scent, unfortunately, a little too light. Phobos is much stronger.
-
After I put it on, I was smelling this odd fruity smell, like I had put on Jester. Gradually, it changed to smelling like hot scorched fields, not really pleasant. This is going in my swap pile.
-
This scent is very dirty. The apricot just barely sweetens the black pachouli, but not enough that it doesn't feel like i'm caked in dirt. My least favorite apricot scent.
-
Unfortunately, this scent has the same problem that I have with Bon Vivant, the fruit scent smells fake. It's ok as a scent though, but because the huckleberry is what I primarily get out of it, it just doesn't smell right.

At the last will -call I smelled this, and went, WOW, so, I put a bit on to see how it worked on me, since it smelled like such Kumquat goodness in this bottle. On me, it turned into this really sharp kumquat smell, very nice. Every other citrus smell that I tried on was utterly diminished by it. Then, I started noticing the kumquat starting to fade, to my annoyance. Slowly, it faded to nothingness, and then, where I had put it on my hand, it started to hurt! I then had to wash my hands. So, nightgaunt, great scent, but, interesting side effects.

I get mostly the skin-musk, honey, and blood red rose from this. It is a little perfumy if I am not smelling directly at the wrist, but when I do, it's honey and roses......ah. Need to wear this scent for boyfriend.
-
I get mostly sugar for this scent, with a suble underlayer of peppermint, which isn't neccessarily bad, because the peppermint in the bottle is really strong. Lick it again, oh how I want to lick myself, *shakes her fist at the disclaimers*
-
I get the apple cider out of this, and it smells nice, however, i've worn it twice and both times, it has faded in two hours on me. I'll give it a few more tries though, it's such a nice smell.

I wish Phobos was stronger. On me, it turns into a rather pleasant lemon scent, but, it's very light. The plus side it that it lasts all day on me.
-
I'm getting the lemon verbena with pine over it, and there's something almost...... vanilla smelling in it too. It's yummy.

Powder. No scent, just the utter feeling of having doused myself with baby powder. Ugh.
-
I really wanted to like this scent. It just goes watery and fades in two hours. Bleh. Going in swap pile.

Peach, Peach Blossom, Apricot, Nectarines

I've tried Katharina, March Hare, and Grand Guignol, and Katharina is the nicest Apricot scent out of those. If you want sweet and tasty peach, go with Aglaea. If you want a harvesty peach, go with Jack. -
I can't really decide if I like or don't like Cthulu. In the bottle, it's like water florals. On me, it's a wet mossy soapy smell. Not really slithery at all. *shrugs*
-
MMM.......... bon vivant is yummy. Champagne and strawberries,damn, now all I need is a man to take to bed.
-
I got this as a frimp, and in the bottle, I was like, wow, this is really minty. On me though, the lavendar and the pennyroayal acted in a not so pleasant manner, and the mint became so twisted and nasty that I had to wash it off. This one is going in my swap pile, for sure.
-
Mock turtle came on me with the aquatic notes being the most prevalent, and the interesting blurry soup of squished scents underneith it making it very pleasant. However, it had a short lifespan, it faded on me very fast. No turtle soup for me...........
-
MMM...... Bordello is a very purple scent. The ammaretto doesn't come out on me, but, the plum and black currant blend witht eh burgandy wine to create a very pleasant scent of fruits and wine. Too bad I have no cheese right now....... Also, this scent works extremly well when paired with Verdandi. It will make you smell like you have a candied apple on your skin.
-
In the bottle, it smelled very floral and nice. On me, this became a very pleasant light floral scent. Not very strong, and it didn't last very long, but, it was very pleasant to wear. This is the sort of scent you need when you're needing a rest from a long, stressful day.
-
MMMM........ swank. Such happy pomegranate goodness. Though, it has a note in there that makes me compare it to the scent of Setsuna that they carry at the Body shop. Which makes it still just as yummy.
-
I wanted shattered for a long time, but, upon trying it, it wasn't as nice as expected. It smelled ok in the bottle, but, on me, the ozone and chamapgne scents took over, and the grapfruit and mint smell i'd been hoping for dissapeared in the drydown.
-
*jumps into her closet* Wow............... this is truly a scent that would make anyone brave thier closet. It's such a delicious bourban and cake scent, oh, so delicious.
-
Katharina is by far the best apricot scent i've found in BPAL. The orange flower makes it not as sickly sweet as March Hare, but sweeter than Grand Guignol, which is like apricots that have rotted slighty.
-
Asphodel is definetly a very grey scent. It's the sort of scent you want to wear when you intend to think on the past. A very thoughtful scent.
