    The Dormouse

    Oh, my. I didn't know the lab made such a light scent. I like it - it's a nice alternative, but I wouldn't call it dizzying, and I can't smell the herbs at all. It DOES smell like something very familiar, though. Now, that may just be the tea, but I can't place it. I was a bit ambivalent about this scent at first. Now I like it a lot, but it fades so fast - I don't know if a larger bottle would be worth it. On the other hand, I could slather it on all day long...

    Glitter

    Glitter, on me, is sweet but not heady. A nice sweet, and something about the lotus, I think, turns it musky almost instantly. Because of this, I didn't experience it being overbearingly sweet like others did. I was surprised, though, at how mellow it is on me. With a name like Glitter I was hoping for a sharper scent, more like Pain, except with more going on. It isn't though, and turns into a rather straightforward floral.

    Sacred Whore of Babylon

    This is a fabulous, sweet spicy sent. There is at least one strong floral note (I'm assuming the gardenia) but it hides a bit on me because of the spicy element. When I forst tried it, I couldn't smell the floral at all, and like it a bit better when the notes were less defined. Who knows why they've separated a bit on me now... It dries into a heady scent that retains it's sweet smell tempered by spice.

    March Hare

    March Hare is one of the most magnificent scents I have ever tried. It is such a sweet apricot, a pure apricot smell, but the clove adds a touch of spice and depth. Someone else said that the scent actually sparkles, and I think that is the perfect way to describe the effect of smelling this. I could wear this everyday - and I would except I have so many other BPAL scents to choose from!

    Vice

    This is a beautiful complex chocolate/ sweet scent. Not as "dark" smelling as Bliss, but it has a lot more going on. It dries down into a soft, sweet, almost musky smell. I don't mind it on all day, and it is quite comforting. It is, however, a scent of which I will probably keep an imp around, not a whole bottle. It is in my "like it, don't have to have it" category. But I can see how anyone would easily put it on their "must have" list!

    De Sade

    I love this scent a billion times more than I thought I would. It is a rather harsh leather, as many others have said, but for me, it is the only scent I wear when I need to be in a "kick ass" mood. It makes me feel strong, no nonsense, and a little wicked. It is perfect, it is unique, it is unadulturated by sweetness or spice, and it is most definitley a keeper.

    Rain Scents

    Here in my part of Texas it almost never rains, so when it does I like to amplify the effect. There's an imp called Peace that I like to use because it has a cooling effect on me. That plus the rain makes for a really wonderful day!
  8. I'm going to have to 5th or 6th (wherever we are) Vixen. My husband won't leave me alone when I wear it.
