I'm with you on that. *sigh* I have a friend that owns a consignment botique and she fell in love with Bpal (and Possets) and would love to have them in store.

Well I got her today. At first it was VERY fruity, almost to Fire Pig fruit-poo-ness. But there's something behind keeping it from being TOO sweet. Then the patchuli comes out. I like Mme Morarty, but in this blend it goes straight to corkboard/hippyness on me. (sorry Inanna9) It's dirty and dusty smelling with the bits of floral and fruit mixed it. She likes me not. I'm glad I got it for the bottle art and the coffin case! ETA: I'm a complete foodie so this wasn't totally unsurprising that the "dust" and patchuli have turned me off.

Ok since today is probably the last day...how about rec's for a foodie?

When wearing this I smell angel food cake. Right out of the oven with that warm toasty almost burnt carmalized sugar crust! I'm in HEAVEN!

I must have a wonky nose or really strange chemistry. I get MINT!!! while it's wet. So potent that I can't get near it. On dry down I smell girl scout cookies 'Thin Mints' Nice, but not wearable.

Cloves and cardamom. They overwhelm the the chocolate on me. I'm sad to say that it didn't work out NEARLY as well as my favorite (Oct) 13. Hopefully better luck in July.

I love the apple this becomes on me. It's a good substitute (for me) to Punkie Night. The apple is tart and crisp

I'm finding Poison Apple is a good substitute for Punkie Night and I'm sure if it's layered with Jack it would really be I've not done a side by side testing, since I'm not all that interested in a PERFECT match, but the apples and spice are quite good and I don't have to worry about running through my punkie night stash so quickly.

It can be frustrating, especially for someone coming into the bpal world right now. I think there's over 1,000 blends that they've made in about 4 years. So what do you concentrate on? The stuff that always avalible? Or chase the moon(s)? It's LUNACY I tell you Ok enough with the dumb jokes. I flip-flop on this so much. The hardest thing about LE's is that once you fall in love, you're in a competition with a hundred other people who are ALSO in love. But I'm not a competitive person. I like the security of knowing that Amsterdam will always (hopefully) be there for me whenever I run low. But that doesn't mean that I'm not going to be called when the LE's show up. But I want to try EVERYTHING! I've a collectors mentality...got to catch(try) em all. I have to know what I'm missing. But then I end up spending 2x a regular bottle's worth for a half a bottle of Ides of March...and thinking I got a good deal! Oh the smelly problems we have. Try the LE's and risk falling in love? or stay with the steady that you know will always be there. This question will never be answered I'm sure. Oh my poor poor poor wallet.

Woobie is my second favorite perfume and #1 for bath and body stuff. She has a LOT of the fruity/foodie blends that I absolutly love. *means I already have a 1/2 oz bottle. She's also got an Autoship feature on her site where you send her a wishlist, then someone can just select a dollar amount and she'll send a surprise package! How fun is that? A LOT! I've already submitted my wishlist to her, just put my name & email address in the comment section. 5/5 *Winterfruit Seduction Fruitcake *Wicked Witch Strawberry Mango Strawberry Kiwi *Reindeer Turds Dehydrated Peaches 4/5 Basics Champagne Dreidal Holiday Coma Rugalach Bite Me Deckthehallphobia Hazelnut Cream Cranberry Chutney Commercialized Insanity Clause Fruit Loopy Sufganiyot Twitters Disaproval Egg Nog Gelt Elf Farts Grumpy Mall Santa Violets Snickerdoodles 3/5 Sugar Fairy Marmalade Bah Humbuger Lump O Coal Plum Pudding Frankensince Dramatized Nes Gadol Haya Sham Stuffed Stockings Shopping Brawl Sunny Side Up 2/5 North Star Sugar Cloud Aloha holiday 3 Kings Menora Voodoo Yellow Snow Exotic Coconut Lavender Rose 1/5 Socks & Underwear Christmas Trees Frosty Wine & Roses Magic Heaven - Gabe says it smells like socks.

A Little Lunacy Hunger Moon - Ozone, white sandalwood, crystallized white amber, verbena, oakmoss, clary sage, and a hint of white citrus rind. It bites me and leaves marks.
