Finding BPAL blends similar to Dior perfumes....
klavierbarrette replied to Cegirls's topic in Recommendations
if you love fruity scents with a bit of a kick, DEFINITELY get dragon's heart. it is so lovely, the fig and currants are just lovely. also try moriarty if you can get a decant or are willing to get a bottle. melisande is my FAVORITE jasmine blend. it's just about pure jasmine with sandalwood. -
on me this was mostly lemon. i bought it 'cause it was ressurected, i liked the story, and i LOVE jasmine. but i didn't get any. but mind you, i like lemon scents, so layered with eos or something, it's lovely. but, i can't find my bottle!!!!

Warrior, Trickster and Goddess of Magic and Poets, she is one of the Tuatha De Danaan and the Queen of the Faeries. A very complex scent, both shadowy and fierce: black orchid, sandalwood, night-blooming jasmine, osmanthus, Somalian rose, and Chinese musk. bottle: i'm assuming this is what black orchid smells like. skin: black orchid. D: it's either the musk or the jasmine (most likely the musk with a tad of jasmine in it) i'm smelling with it. bought this merely for the jasmine, but it's a lovely blend.
-
bottle: jasmine. it is my friend. wrist: jasmine, honeysuckle/buttercup is taking over though! >( BUT, this is one of my fave jasmine blends. my mom can handle it!!! so glad its GC <3333333
-
imp: cinnamon/honeysuckle. skin: the cinnamon comes out more. i don't really like cinnamon. hrmm. time to send it to a friend. too bad, love honeysuckle. but it was a frimp so yeah.
-
i was sorta not looking forward to this. i heard a lot of people like it, but im not big on aquatics. even though some test said those are the kind of perfumes i like. o_O''' imp: floral water skin: yay more floral waterishness. ok a minute or two later i'm getting this citrus thing people are talking about. pretty blend but again, not my thing.

The Greek God of Tears, Patron of Mourners, who dictates and accepts honors paid to the dead. He is the personification of grief and the sorrow and emptiness that comes from loss. Weeping is his hymnal, and this is his perfume. Salt tears over white roses, the fumes of thin funereal incense and the hollowness of calamus. this is an interesting oil. imp: SALT WATER EW. skin: salt water, then whoah rose. still salty but there's a TINY musk. nice blend. not really the type i like, but nice frimp. <3
-
imp: the almond oil my mom cooks cookies and stuff with! O_O the almond is still there and i think i can smell myrrh. where is the musk! i would love this if i could smell the musk! ahh there it is!! with money, this one might be purchased
-
opened this and got some on my finger already in the bottle its 'hello poppy'. that's also how it is on my finger atm. i don't know...opium, poppies, they love me. LOVE me. something sweeter comes out a minute later but im not sure what it is...no wait it's the strawberry! <3 but.....then it goes away. now i'm left with orange poppy. it's alright. a layering scent.
-
imp: WHOAH! i immediately backed off and got some on my lip in the process (how that happened i have no idea) i smelled something....yucky on my skin though, the frankincense comes out and it makes it -better-. i have NO idea what ambergris smells like so that might have been what i didn't like. it layers nicely with the dragon's milk i have on to test? i don't really like it. smells like a spice rack.
-
imp: vanilla skin: dragon's blood, just sweeter. but i love dragon's blood. it was a frimp so its all good.

This season’s Ridiculous Scent! As creepy as Spooky was spooky, this is the scent of butterscotch-kissed, caramel-smothered red apples spiked with a blast of coconut rum. this is for a friend but you know i can't just let it go without testing it first bottle: butterscotch!!! i hate butterscotch but it smelled good skin: butterscotch for a few seconds, then CANDY, then AAAPPPLLLEE. now the butterscotch and caramel are working together to make a nice scent with the apples. i wish i could wear foody scents. this is so pretty. T_T of to Crube it goes.

oh man. this is AWESOME. i only get the irish coffee.....but damn. this really nothing to say other than i need a bottle. especially since i just spilled some on my pillow. oh well it will be a nice smelling pillow! i usually hate the scent of coffee...everytime i walk by the coffee bean store i go EWWW but i had to try this, i just HAD to. it is so delicious.
-
ohhh, i already like this. in the imp i can smell everything in the ingredients. but on my skin right now, its a nice fresh floral, with just a touch of herbs. it is very pretty. i can see it fading quickly though...it has almost no throw.
-
imp: myrrh/amber skin: myrrh, amber, sandalwood. i don't smell the lotus! it comes in a few minutes later, yay nice scent, thanks for the frimp!
-
imp: cypress. skin: lillies and aquatics. odd. i want the wood back! *waits for it....* a couple minutes later, it's in the background. not sure if i like this scent yet, so i' ll hold onto it. ADDED March 18: definitely smells like the poem. depressing scent category anyone? the lilies are barely there for me, the wood takes over harshly. it's odd. smells like the lilies are trapped in a forest and cannot get out. it's pretty but i think it's giving me a headache. EDIT: LOL, i just realised i had reviewed this. the imp has been in my box for awhile and smells different...its ALL WOOD NOW! it's been a couple months, for those who want to know.
-
imp: ylang ylang skin: ylang ylang for a few seconds, then clove/patchouli make their appearance. i get a HINT of fig. the clove and patchouli stay in the background. it's a nice scent. would have never ordered it. yay for frimps!
-
imp: tea and somethin' else... skin: tea. i am a teapot. some ginger creeps up. (probably the 'somethin' else' i was smelling in the imp) i don't really like it...but i'm going to save it.
-
imp: apricot! <3 skin: apricot with the clove...it blends very nicely. very happy to receive this as a frimp. cloves as an ingredient scare me away... i love the mad tea party scents!
-
imp: crisp fruit floral skin: first thing i can pick out is iced grape. there's definitely something else there, though. i think it is rose/moonflower. the rose really comes out later. very beautiful.
