This one is gorgeous! I didn't know what to expect, but it's a sweet gentle apple scent, with breaths of the violet and iris. To my nose, it's like a pale juicy apple covered in a lilac, floral morning dew. Very lovely! I am enamored with this one!

Patchouli, aquilaria aguillocha, and Manuka honey. Oh my, being first is gonna be tough >_< I have the original release of the Tricky bath oil, and love it! The bath oil is quite strong to me so it's used sparingly, though. HAIR GLOSS REVIEW I detect more honey than patchouli in this hair gloss, and the throw is more subtle and lingering. The aquilaria aguillocha apparently is some kind of Agarwood or Oud (according to my limited Google-fu). Normally I find Oud overpowering and avoid it, but not here! The gloss itself still does wonderous things for my mane - and I am BEYOND THRILLED that the throw is more subtle than the Bath Oil, because it means that I can wear it at my conservative workplace without worry! Great job Puddin' and the Labby Goblins!

This one is a soft, velvety vanilla resin with touches of warm coffee notes

This IS really similar to the SMUT BPAL oil! I'm not the biggest fan of the smut perfume oil, but this hair gloss seems softer and a little less intense to me, and gorgeous! I love how this one just lingers in soft wafts of scent - I wore a little overnight and could still smell it in the morning. I re-applied a spritz to my ends, and it's still quite a gentle scent.

Labial pink with fine iridescent glitter. What a beautiful shade of pink! it's a nearly perfect bubblegum pink, and the teeny tiny holographic glitter is just right! The glitter is prevalent throughout but not overpowering, easily wearable anywhere!

This is strong! But it's so gorgeous, cold and fresh! It reminds me of frozen, tart lemonade with sweet honey stirrers. It will be delightful to wear is the middle of summer!

My favorite of the Yule offerings this year! Absolutely gorgeous soft amber with wafts of cool, barely minty-vanilla snow, and touches of warm & delicate true fresh rose petals

This is an unusual Yule, but very lovely and delicate. It smells like candies and sweets nestled among softly scented floral arrangements

This one is a cold, misty and very beautiful snow scent. It has touches of florals every once in a while. Just lovely!

My bottle of Apple Pie HG, to me, smelled VERY strongly of cinnamon....I got very little apple and even less 'pie crust' I was really hoping that this one would be heavy on the apple, but there's absolutely nothing wrong with warm cinnamon.

Holy Cr@p! This is a gorgeous foody scent! It's eerily similar to the very first 13, just minus the citrus and gentle florals. Glorious! Love love love!

Just beautiful and very atmospheric. I get the leaves and amber, and its soft and very autumnal. ETA - 10/23/2024: Aging this has really deepened the fruity aspect, and I get LOADS of juicy pomegranate & currant! The resins have also become much more glorious!

This is my favorite of the Post's Halloweenies 2015 HG! I get the dead leaves and musk immediately, then the musk fades and I am left with soft, autumnal vanilla auras. Just lovely! ☺

!!!!!!! It's a pumpkin version of Boo! YES!

My bottle of Gourmand (ETA #82) smells like sugar, vanilla with perhaps just the teeniest bit of white chocolate. It's feminine and lovely - so happy with it!

Black amber and jasmine tea with 7-year aged vanilla bourbon absolute. This one turned out pretty flat for me. All I smell is a very dark booze - nothing romantic about it. I was hoping to get a floral tea with resiny vanilla undertones. Sadly this did not happen. It also has almost no staying power for me, after 20 minutes I can not detect it anymore.

Hmmm.... This is the Hair Gloss version of Peach Moon on me. Not much in common with Peach Moon as far as listed notes go, but really, that's the only thing that comes to mind when I smell this gloss. So Cubeb is some kind of pepper, but this gloss has zero peppery traces for me. It was the only note that worried me. Clearly unfounded fears. Since I love Peach Moon so much, and this gloss might as well be made of Peach Moon, its a definite WIN. Probably going to get a backup of this one before Lupers disappear in April. love love love!

THANK YOU FOR MAKING ROSE RED A HAIR GLOSS!! ahem... Rose Red gloss is like walking into a gloriously healthy rose garden after a rainshower. The rose is true and elegant. The greenery is fresh and vibrant. The 'dew' is soft and refreshing. This is a fabulous accomplishment by the Lab & Post! If you can release this every Yule, that would be phenomenal!

This is lovely! To me its a cool spring scent. The honey is the warmth of spring but there is definitely a coolness to it, and to me it smells like icy/iced vanilla sugar with a teeny, tiny drop of something minty. I'll be using this one a bunch, I'm sure of it!

Winter Lily & Sugar Cane This is a surprise winner for me! The lily is subtle, the snow - just the right amount of 'coolness', and the sugar cane just makes this scent glow. It's a perfectly sophisticated scent, and very subdued. Perfect for a 'stuffy' office setting or if you just want a soft, delicate scent. absolutely lovely!

Frosty Silkybat I did not try the original Silkybat HG, so there is no point of comparison. This is a gorgeous wintery scent! It's soft and mellow but noticeable. If patchouli isn't your thing (it's certainly not mine *) you can still try this and love it. I think the snowy notes and vanilla give a perfect balance to the patchouli, and it probably helps significantly that the patchouli is 'sugared' Excellent work BPTP & BPAL!!!

Boo Hair Gloss is AMAZING! It's a glorious sweet - but not too sweet! - vanilla with just the teeniest touch of linen. It lingers all day without being overpowering or subtle, just perfect! I thought I would be safe from backup purchases this Halloweenie - but Boo HG is seriously making me reconsider

Devil's Night 2011 This one is quite bold. it's definitely boozy and sugary. I do get a blast of musk when I first apply it, but this fades into a super sugary shot of whiskey (or, it smells whiskey like to me anyway) it's actually quite nice and definitely brings to mind a mischievious October night.

Snow-laden woods, iced blackberry and bergamot, white rose, and crystallized amber. In the Bottle: Not a terribly 'cold' scent, but rather warm and inviting. I can detect the scent of the famous BPAL 'snow' note - as well as the amber and blackberry. The label is very striking as well - it looks very much like the massage oil labels, but with winter colors and tones. In the Bathtub: I poured about 7 drops of this bath oil under hot running water; having never used a bath oil before, I didn't know if this would foam or not. It did not - but it made the bath water astoundingly moisturized and silky. Aside from the blossoming scent of rose, amber, snow and blackberry - the water looked like nothing special at all. The oil made my skin feel great! I could particularly notice the affects on my ankles and calves. Out of the Bathtub: My skin is very moisturized and the scent of the Winter Maiden still clings to me as any of BPAL's perfumes would - just ALL OVER as opposed to just the pulse points. The prominent notes on me are: Snow, Amber and Blackberry - with Rose hiding under the bunch; it's almost indistinct. My skin feels wonderfully silky and soft too! I didn't even need to apply any lotion to areas of my skin that are notoriously dry in the winter - that's very impressive from my standpoint! Verdict: Wonderful! If I had known that bath oils were this effective I would have tried them long ago. The Winter Maiden is simply lovely - for me, the scent brings to mind a Japanese hot spring in the dead of winter - but there's still cherry blossoms falling in the bath water, and the snow and white roses are mingling happily together just outside the light of the torches surrounding the spring. 10 of 10 Ranking! ETA: BPTP Description & Correct the Title.

I was hoping that this would smell more like the candy 'marshmallow pumpkin' moreso than a marshmallow and a pumpkin - sitting side by side. For my nose, this is nearly all raw pumpkin and nearly zero fluffy sugary goodness that i would expect from a Marshmallow. Sadly, this one does not really work for me as a "soak for hours" bath oil. It does work better as a soft additive to body lotion - literally 2 drops in a quarter sized amount of lotion.
