    Peach III (2016)

    This was the first DragonCon I was not able to attend in many years so I asked a friend who was going to pick me up a Peach Pit exclusive to make me feel better. After going over the options, I decided on Peach III since it was unlike any other fragrance I had. (I need to make an effort to get away from the gourmands. lol) I don't usually blind buy, unless it's an imp, but I trusted BPAL to treat me right. In the bottle: Sour fertilizer. I immediately thought, "Oh no. I've made a huge mistake. This is horrible..." I was quite disappointed and convinced that I had made an error. On the skin: MUCH BETTER. I told myself just to try it on and see if it gets better. Oh boy, does it. The Peach is very candy like. Almost like a peach jam or pie filling. The grapefruit is very clean and soapy. It seems like the frankincense and jasmine were after thoughts. It gets pretty heady for the first part of the day, but the dry down gets very soft and feminine. You smell the jasmine in an hour or so. It's not a weak scent. I don't hate it, I feel like, even though it's got peach and citrus, it could be worn in colder weather. I'll keep this around and maybe try and layer it with my trusty gourmands.

    Snake Oil

    This is a smoky vanilla that I absolutely adore and has been the favorite BPAL scent (so far) of all my coworkers. (I work at Lush Cosmetics so they know scent! lol) Warm vanilla smells do GREAT with my body chemistry so this one is just perfection. It starts off sweet and smoky, like a dark vanilla incense. I really like it because it evokes memories of my favorite Ren Faire, the Georgia Renaissance Festival. After a while, it lightens up to where my husband likes it more. (He loves vanilla but hates incense. Uh oh. ) He much prefers when I wear EAT ME from the Alice in Wonderland line. I got this as an imp so I'll most likely be buying the whole bottle. LOVE IT.
