I only have a sniffie so I wasn't able to put any on, but just from sniffing I have to say it smells wonderful. Peppermint patty and christmas are what come to mind. Must find an imp somewhere
-
This one didn't work for me. It had a sharp medicinal smell to it. If I sniff hard enough there is something really pleasant underneath but the sharpness needs to die down a little. Not terrible but not something I'd find myself wearing
I edited this to add: I just read the reviews above mine and I wound up saying pretty much what everyone else did, lol. I promise I didn't peak at their reviews before writing this!
-
I liked this in the bottle...on my skin it got too overpowering and perfumey. It's a nice floral scent if you like the flowers. Just didn't work on me :/
-
In the bottle this smelled chocolatey. On my wrist I could smell the transformation happen. It got a late-night ourdoorsy in late autumn, smell I smell chimney smoke and the air is crisp. A wonderful and interesting blend. Lives up to its name

The description is perfect. It does smell like a cocktail. Fruity, boozey, delicious. It's bright, uplifting, and fresh. It smells like *wealth*. I really like this one and have applied it twice already
-
In the bottle this is amazing. Once on it took on the smell of a pipe (tobacco). I'm not tossing this one into the swap pile just yet, as I do get sniffs of yummy chocolate...if only the smoke smell wasn't there. After a bit the tobacco smell does disappear...so this is a keeper, just not an upgrade to a bottle one

This is the first review I'm doing from a free sniffie I got, I really feel this was worthy
WOW! This scent is amazing (I feel like I've been saying that on a loop lately). In the bottle it smells a tad smoky, which I normally dont like..but on, it smells delicious! Wet rum chocolate...that's what I think of when I smell it. All lovely and beautiful together. I see a few more drops remaining at the bottom of the bottle which I'm going to hoard until I'm able to get my hands on an actual bottle or imp
ADDED Sept. 9:
I got an empty bottle of this in a sale, looked at it, thought "gee that's pretty" and then pretty much left it alone.
Last night something made me want to try it...holy cow this is amazing! I had maybe a drop or 2 left and I did everything but try to jump in the bottle to get more.
I smell sweet pipe tobacco. And I'm usually not a fan of the tobacco smells but this one is absolutely astonishing. It makes me feel at ease...I don't know what it is. It's a very relaxing scent and perfect for the upcoming fall weather. I'm trying to track down a full bottle because I dont want this, I NEED it.
-
Oh my. WOW. I bought a 5ml bottle of this, unsniffed, because it came highly recommended. I am so happy I did. This is absolutely amazing. I smell warm luscious creamy vanilla. The prettiest vanilla scent I've ever smelled. I keep saying this but I found a new favorite. I can't put into words how amazing this oil smells.
-
I *really* wanted to try this one because who couldn't use a little relaxation in their lives. I chase a 3 year old all day...give me succor please!
It's not very pleasant smelling in the vial...smells kind of like muted medicine. Once applied it completely vanishes. Very very faint scent. I have to really sniff to smell this. But what I do smell, smells rather nice. It's clean. Nothing harsh. So I guess it lives up to its name. I'll try putting some on tomorrow when my daughter tries to eat cat food again and see if it works
But scent-wise only, it's nice. I just wish it was a tad stronger and more noticeable. Perhaps thats the point though. To make the effort and take the time to smell for it. That's a little relaxing itself and forces *you* into a mini timeout...which I certainly need sometimes!

I'm happy to have found this thread. I have no known allergies, just sensitive skin and sometimes I break out in mysterious hives (was a huge problem when I was younger) and stress does me in as well. So far I've sampled over 70 BPAL oils and had no reaction. This morning I put on a blend of Dixie Love Perfume and Dragon's Milk, got in the car to go out and was horrified when I looked in the mirror and saw what looked like strangulation marks on my neck. Big bright red welts. So yeah, I'm *hoping* it wasn't the dragon's milk because I love that fragrance. I have a feeling it was the tal. Now I know not to put that one on my neck I'm really curious to know which ingredient it was that actually did me in...
Just a heads up to those with sensitive skin/prone to hive...
-
This is another amazing blend. I'm starting to see a pattern as to which oils work on me (myrrh, frankincense) and which don't (honey, amber). This oil contains the first two and its gorgeous. Another I put in my "favorites" bag. It starts off a little strong, so apply sparingly, but settles to a lovely, quaint evening alone under the stars. Stunning

My oh my. After a brief losing streak as far as incoming imps goes, I've been on a long string of hit after hit. Moon Rose is no exception. I love me some rose...but rose not done well just, well, stinks.
Moon Rose is perfect. Light, airy, lovely. The rose isn't overpowering...it's there but not in your face. It has a lovely powder fresh scent to it. Clean and crisp. GLorious scent and one my new favorites (I've been saying that a lot lately )

Just when I think I found my new favorite BPAL scent (hello Dragon's Milk), another pokes its head into my life. I have a new love and her name is Snow White. This oil is unbelievable. It smells like innocence, beauty, grace and femininity all bottled up. Not overpowering, but gorgeous. I can't say enough good things about this one. If you haven't tried it, find some! I can't pick out any single note because the lot blend together perfectly. Nothing punches you in the face. And it doesn't morph. It's consistently stunning. Must find more!
-
The tobacco scared me but I have to say this is one my favorite scents now. Wow. It's very unique and a tad foody, without being overly in your face. It's light and feminine, yet unique. I've had this on for the last few hours and everyone I passed wanted to know what I was wearing. Gorgeous gorgeous scent~ Made my favorites list
-
What's that saying...a rose is just a rose...right? WRONG. This is the most beautiful rose oil I have ever smelled. It's intoxicating. I CANT stop smelling my wrists For the rose lovers, this is a MUST. For the rose haters, you might want to give this one a try because it's gorgeous.
It smells like a perfect single red rose.
-
This one is NICE. Made it into my favorites It has an insense-type smell, but very light. I don't know how else to describe it...I can't pick any particular scent out. The decsription makes it sound kind of dark and heavy, but on me it takes on a light and airy feel. I love it.
-
This was fine until it dried. Then it started smelling like cigarette smoke. Which is weird because in the bottle it smelled like chocolate coffee
-
Wow, I didn't like this in the bottle or on my skin. It had a strong, dark, medicinal scent to it. I prefer the lighter, airy ones If you like the dark brooding scents, this one is definitely for you. Sort of smells piney too.
-
In the bottle I smell spearmint gum. I knew this one would be hit or miss. When first applied it was delightfully refreshing. But after about 10 minutes it turned to black licorice, which I can't stand. Off to the swap pile with ye :/
-
Since I just did a review for Drink Me I felt this would be a good follow-up review.
Where as Drink Me was more foody, Eat Me was more liquidy. I feel like the names were mixed up.
This is a complex blend. Hard to single out any notes. I try to do my reviews blind, without peeking at what it's supposed to smell like so I keep an open mind, but this was one of those times where I had to peek just to figure out what I was smelling. It's the black currants that must have thrown me for a loop.
Bottom line is it smells great. Not good enough to upgrade to a bottle, but nice enough to keep the imp and wear
-
If BPALS had relatives, Drink Me would be Monsterbait Underpants' little brother. They smell almost alike. Drink Me is a tad less intense, but still. If you've been curious about the underpants, cant afford or get your hands on the underpants, Drink Me is a great substitute.
Foody, chocolately, warm and delicious. This was named perfectly

MMMMMMM Happiness in a jar. I smell fruits, apples, mangos, oranges, and sunshine. This is the PERFECT pick-me-up blend I've smelled so far. I'm keeping this for sure and will wear it on those days were I'm dragging my butt
