    Good

    In the imp, it smells sweet (I couldn't pick out any specific notes). On / dry, I get sweetness, vanilla and honey. It doesn't last long, after half an hour it's too faint to smell unless I bury my nose in my wrist. It's one I'd be willing to carry around to slather it on a few times a day.

    Blood Orange, Ylang Ylang, & Lime

    I love ylang ylang, blood orange, and lime. Such a win for all three scents. Wet and in bottle: orange orange orange orange Dry: Ylang ylang serves as a shim to keep the orange table from wobbling, with a slice of lime left out on the table top. Love it! Wish the ylang ylang came out stronger but I'll definitely take it.

    Lavender Plum Galette

    My first review! I'm soooo sad that it's not a positive one. I love every scent listed for Lavender Plum Galette, and unfortunately it smells like pickle juice, in the bottle and on the skin. Wet: pickle juice Dry: pickle juice Dry + 2 hours: sour and something else I can't name, maybe uncooked dough from the flaky crust? I've tried it twice, a month apart. Both times it goes instantly to pickle juice and stays there. I'm a BPAL newbie and have seen lots of advice about letting these rest, so I'll put it back in the box and try again in a month or so. Fingers crossed! ETA: It's June 29, and sadly, the smell hasn't changed on me (though the scent is beginning to mellow in the bottle, which probably means at some point in the future, it will be heavenly). I think I'll let someone else age it like a fine wine in their collection. 8-)
