  1. Quick question, do the snakepits have different labels? I was going through past BPAL etsy sales and Cottonmouth looks a lot different than what the bottles I've been seeing on ebay. The bottles I usually see are hot pink with the snake on the right hand side. This is the BPAL etsy cottonmouth bottle I saw: http://www.etsy.com/transaction/132158804?

     

    I have a similar question about Australian Copperhead. I have two partial bottles that have very different labels (the snakes are on different sides of the bottles, and the snakes themselves are also different). Did the label change? Is one older than the other? Thanks!


  2. (I should note here that I really love lavender...)

     

    When I first read the notes for this blend, it sounded simply divine. It smells even better on :). This is a lavender, but not a sleepy, TKO lavender. It is deep, resinous and sweet. Instead of making me sleepy, it is keeping me calm and warm on a cold day. It is sweeter and darker than TKO, with the benzoin and Oudh keeping this from being a typical lavender scent.

     

    Going on 9 hours and still smelling amazing; I have felt enveloped in a serene, sweet cloud all day :)


  3. I was not quite sure what to expect from Peach I. The notes were so intriguing, but I was not sure how they would come together.

     

    In a nutshell, I was blown away.

     

    Peach I smells to me like juicy, summery peach in the bottle. I don't get much tobacco, but the red musk is warm and softens the peach a bit.

     

    When wet, I still smell bright peach, but it is starting to move towards a heady, deep scent thanks to the tonka and red musk (and presumably the tobacco, although I can't quite pick out that note).

     

    Dry, Peach I is a warm, slightly woodsy peach scent. I clearly amp the red musk and peach. I also get the sweetness and warmth from the tonka and honey, and oh do I love honey! It provides sweetness with a slight tinge of something sharp as well. I do not get much tobacco until hours later, but perhaps that is lending to some of the warmth in the scent. Together the red musk, tonka and peach leave me with a golden, warm and sweet scent that lingers all day. Literally, 11 hours later and I am still enjoying the scent, slightly more smoky and woodsy, but still with warmth and some sweetness. My chemistry just works beautifully with Peach I :)

     

    I am simply in love- enough so to leave my very first review :)

     

    And a special thank you to my wonderful and amazing Dragoncon fairy- next year let's go as a team!
