    51

    51 is a very "cool" scent - it smells like fresh breeze with some cucumber crispiness and honeydew sweetness thrown in. Moderate wear length and throw, a light scent that's suitable for more subdued occasions.

    Anubis

    In the imp vial: "rich" is the word that came to my mind. i can't pick out individual notes. Applied, wet: It smells sweet and fruity, on top of a musky, golden scent. Dry: Sweetness definitely toned down, and it mixes with the incense smell quite nicely. A little exotic smelling, it reminds me of the incense in some middle-eastern restaurants I've been to.

    Bon Vivant

    Yummy! It smells like YSL's Yvresse perfume, but more boozy as far as I can remember. When I wore this in a scent locket - the scent tends to turn 'stale' or too 'sour' by the end of the day. However, when worn on the skin it mellows out nicely. I will be getting a bottle of this.

    Mr. Ibis

    Mr Ibis is a very clean, fresh scent, but without being girly or overly sharp. It makes me think of fresh air and laundry. On the drydown there is a light muskiness. Wear length is average but throw is not very strong - had to slather on this one quite a bit!

    STFU

    woah, i really like how STFU smells! it's cool, green, fresh, and crisp-smelling, which i wasn't expecting from the name initially. effectiveness - yes, it works.

    Charisma

    The scent of Charisma is a bit hard to pinpoint... it's warm, but not too thick, musky, slightly herbal? I really have no idea. Whatever it is, this stuff works. It seems to enhance your natural qualities, makes you more energetic and confident.

    Lucy's Kiss

    strangely the two times i tried it out i had slightly different effects. lucy's kiss smells like roses mixed with greeness. the rose is apparent but not overpowering; it smells sensual but at the same time the green/fresh smell gives it a more innocent and young quality. the first time i wore it the rose does not come off so strongly, but i tried it again last night and all i got was roses. unfortunately i am not a big fan of rose though i do admit it is befitting of its name.

    Lampades

    ... Their scent is the crisp, inviting bittersweet tang of cranberry with smoky dark lilies, heady, sensual musk, a tingle of ginger and a brush of Mediterranean spices. in the imp lampades smells like cranberries, i do not get much of the other notes. after application the cranberries takes on more musky/spicy qualities. it it yummy but at the same time the musky notes lends it a somewhat mysterious feeling.

    Lady MacBeth

    i was surprised that this scent turned out so fruity. i would expect a more mature smell, but this smelled like fruity gummy drops on me - didn't get much of the other notes, it's all gumdrops and fruit juice all the way! it is not too bad, i rather like it, but just not what i'd imagine lady macbeth to smell like. it is also quite strong, my mom walked past my room (after i'd applied it while changing to to out) and asked me why my room smelled so much like berries. heh.

    Bliss

    bliss smells exactly like described: milk chocolate. it reminds me of one of those huge bars of cadbury's milk chocolate. a small dab goes a long way, this is a very instense chocolately creamy sweetness. i gave my wrist a few close sniffs and my throat started having that tickley feeling you get when you eat too much chocolate. ; it's definitely not something i'd wear on hot sunny days; besides, i've always been more partial towards dark chocolate.

    Embalming Fluid

    in the imp, the lemon and tea comes off pretty strong and sharp. however, after applying the sharpness tapers off and what remains is a light, refreshing gentle sweetness. it is lemony without being too detergent-like, sweet without being cloying. i find it really comforting and uplifting. this might be my favorite bpal scent so far!

    Sugar Skull

    2006 version Never tried the previous sugar skulls, but I love the 06 version. In the imp it smelled sweet, slightly caramelly. On me, it becomes the yummy smell of brown sugar. It smells lightly toasted, and reminds me a little of maple syrup(?). There is a bit of spice in the background, but very faint.

    Desdemona

    desdemona is a gentle, watery white floral with a bit of spice from the carnation. it smells innocent and fresh but also with a more grown-up side to it, and rather sad. very much like its namesake. unfortunately when applied on me the drydown smells a lot like scented chinese new year cards that are extremely common over here. i like it, but i'd probably not wear it because i'd get asked why do i smell like greeting cards.

    Drink Me

    on initial sniff in the imp i thought of cheese popcorn! must be the turkey + butter smells. lucky for me the turkey smell becomes less strong over time- it's still there, but not so much cheesy. it smells like a mix of butter popcorn, cookies and just a hint of roast turkey.

    Bordello

    bordello is all berries and cherries! scent did not change much be it in the imp or applied on me: a yummy cherry fragrance, but not being too sickeningly sweet. easily one of my favorites.
