In the bottle its all light sweet pea scent. Freshly applied its the same but with a whole Lotta throw! I think over applying could give me a scent headache but so far it's okay with the small amount used for testing. It stays a bright sweet pea only for a few hours before mellowing out and sticking close to the wrist. I didn't get any hints of sandalwood but did feel like the almond milk came out to help the mellow happen. I too think I prefer Mouse's as a sweet pea scent but overall this isn't bad!

It does smell a little like a plasticy vanilla candle, but I honestly love it on myself! It does eventually mellow out into just a regular single note vanilla which again I love.
-
Love this! Like others have said it's definitely Mouse Circus vibes with a little bit more sweetness! The lavender is really prominent at first but fades to the background after 30 minutes or so.

This is a review for the 2024 version since it doesn't have its own page. In the bottle and wet on skin I get a STRONG mint chocolate smell which i was initially disappointed about. Once it starts to dry down though it is a wonderful vanilla mint! It almost reminds me of Agreenex (but I spilled my bottle two years ago so I might be misremembering). I absolutely love it!

I am so BUMMED! From the reviews on this it really seemed like my jam but alas in the bottle and wet on skin it was FLORAL SOAP possibly laundry detergent. It was so overwhelming I had to rinse it off less than 10 minutes into wearing ?

Got U&L with my Yules and Weenies because I remember smelling it at Dragoncon a few years ago and liking it but I didn't but it then. In the bottle and wet all I get is the champagne grape note but the second it starts to dry it's nothing but vanilla amber. This is my first time having a perfume with amber in it and while I don't hate it, it did trigger a scent migraine that was actually pretty bad. I tried to scrub it off after 4 hours but unfortunately it didn't work. The throw is pretty decent which surprised me because most of my bpals stay close to my arm. I really liked the smell, but sadly it didn't agree with me so I won't be keeping it ?

APPLE APPLE APPLE Both in the bottle and freshly applied wet this smells of nothing else but apples. I actually wasn't sure if I liked it, but once it really had a few hours to dry down I finally was able to get a hint of the cider. Now about four hours later I get spiced cider donut and the apple is almost totally gone

Caramel Apple Ginger Ale Float
ArtemisSelene replied to doomsday_disco's topic in Event Exclusive Oils
So yummy! In the bottle I get a blast of fizzy ginger ale and caramel Wet the ginger ale comes out full force but also settles into the background rapidly Dry for me the caramel is the strongest note with a hint of apple. Almost smells like a caramel apple scented candy opposed to an actual caramel apple. I would say medium throw. Absolutely perfect for fall! -
Finally got an imp to try and it's delicious! Overall I can't really pick out any individual scents in the imp and freshly wet. It just smells yummy and foodie. Dry I definitely get a butterscotch/toffee type of smell which is fantastic!

And Though They Are With You Yet They Belong Not To You
ArtemisSelene replied to Seajewel's topic in Limited Editions
I absolutely love this perfume. This and Peach, Coconut Cream, Marshmallow, and Nougat are the first two perfumes I ever got from bpal at Dragoncon 2022 and I can't believe I haven't reviewed it yet. This is such a comforting blend of vanilla and candlewood for me. I love wearing it anytime. It has a medium throw but a pretty decent wear time. -
Really peach forward at first which I love! It reminds me of the peach in Peach, Coconut Cream, Marshmallow, and Nougat which I feel is different than say Fuzzy Peach Sweater. It eventually mellows into a light peach sticky rice dessert type smell which is so nice. Very low throw and it fades after about 5 hours.

Okay as the odd one out who has never had strawberry nesquick I feel like it probably smells similar to Hershey's Strawberry syrup? If so then yes this perfume is that 100%. In the bottle and wet it smells like strawberry syrup and has a very good throw. It stays like that for about 6 or 7 hours and then smells like what I assume a strawberry marshmallow would smell like. Glad I got it and disappointed I wasn't able to get a back up! Edit 10/4/24 when applied with a wandcap the very first thing that comes to mind is strawberry chapstick!!

In the bottle: Smells like soap Wet: Perfume-y white chocolate. Reminds me of something my mom used to wear. I can definitely smell the plastic underneath but it isn't too bad. Dry: I think my skin really amps the amber in this because I never got a hint of candy corn or really any sweetness. I might let it sit a while longer and try again but my first impression is that it sadly isn't for me.
-
It smells like off the interstate rest stop bathroom hand soap on me ??? I lasted twenty minutes before I had to try and wash it off and even then the throw was so strong it gave me a migraine. This one is an absolute no for me and I'm so bummed cause other reviews made it seem like something I'd love.

The only one of the Lavender Kitchen yules that didn't work for me. In the bottle and on my skin for the first 25 minutes it smelled like amazing fancy restaurant crusty bread! Absolutely delicious Until that 25 minute mark (maybe when it fully dries down?) When it turns into a weirdly rancid fancy soap smell. Like hotel soap gone bad is the only way to describe it. Sadly not for me ?
