What the Blob (of 1958 fame) would smell like if it were slow-motion rip-roaring through Cracker Barrel. It’s going to engulf your pancake breakfast and the wooden booth to boot. And maybe it’ll slurp a jar of apple butter off the shelves when it exits through the general store. Gleamy, goopy, and a little bit country, with molasses charging thickly ahead and maple surple streaming in around the edges. The salt and brown sugar pluck in with a twang of texture and depth. If there’s any crust to be had, it’s been gobbled up by that dang ol’ Blob.

First few wears: I get the puree and I get the buttercream, but that’s not all we’ve got here to frost your cakes. There is also a cheeky bit of clove...Or maybe it's some baked, caramelized swirl of pumpkin roulade snickety-snacking about. Now: Aha! Pumpkin spice cheesecake.

Surprisingly fruity! I get a big squeeze of bergamot bolstering the somnambulant lilt of lavender sugar cookies. No tea for me at the present, but it's a great cookie nonetheless.

Opens with a bite of musked apple and a nibble of fig nestled in a crest of gilded amber. With time, the headier aspects of the perfume drift from the shore of the skin, leaving love's lasting imprint of sun-warmed fruits and sparkling vanilla.

Expectation: Mango Lassi Reality: Surprise! The Froot Stork paid you a visit! And they brought you a sweet baby mango nestled in a soft blanket of rice milk.

A viridescent rustle of olive blossoms sings from the end of the wand cap. Skin and scent bloom velvet petals sunning under breathy citrus musk. A trembling web thread of cedar lies in wait for a sandalwood snack.

No problem! If you Google “BPAL Worm Moon 2014,” the artwork shows up in Scentbase and an old BPAL Tumblr post.

@highgarden I think they’re 2013 and 2014, respectively!

Jammy gobs of sugared, tart pomegranate goo out of the bottle are crammed into a fluffy fried dough once applied to the skin. The scent experience is like eating a jelly doughnut in reverse.

From the bottle rises fresh diced apples with oats and walnuts, tossed together in a mixing bowl with sugar and grated nutmeg. On the skin, the edges brown as that cookie element bakes into view, but make no mistake; this is all about the sugared apples, subtle spice, and nutty, oaty bits.

From the 5ml barrel sloshes a waft of almond dusted with oakmoss and grazed with rosemary foam, while jasmine wraps her coquettish tail around it all. Jasmine-averse seafarers rejoice, or rather, beware: This be your siren to lure you into the aromatic abyss with her gentle floral song. The skin tells a tale. The integrity of the almond, the wit of the rosemary, and the virility of the oakmoss join forces with jasmine’s more polished sensibilities to become something that, while not capable of commanding the military, could very well command the room.

2020 version A sheen of buttery cookie sweat is tautened over a quickened, almost imperceptible pulse of cinnamon sugar. A faint perversion of egg nog permeates the air. Like a classic baked good with dastardly deeds that have yet to be discovered.

I went into this with a specific result in mind. I was hoping it’d smell at least somewhat similar to icewine tea. My wish has been granted! The dark resins, white lemon, and icy wine grape read like icewine-laced Ceylon tea with some rounding of the tannic edges. The white musk gives it a dry, loose leaf feel. Mfw wearing this:

I'm not a big fan of the drydown. There's an unpleasant clashing tang with the tart cranberry and buttery popcorn. BUT it is smoothing out considerably, and it continues to get better throughout the wear. The cranberries are bright. The popcorn smells crunchy. (How?!) This perfume might leave you with kernels stuck in your teeth.
