BPAL Madness!

Recommended Posts

Chills and thrills, but certainly no frills: a polluted, rough-riding version of the Traditional Sheet Ghost: cool white cotton, marshmallow fluff, and lemony Oman frankincense, marred with suspicious blotches of coconut oil and a cigarette burn.

I could have sworn there was Egyptian musk here. I think the combo of motel scents makes my olfactory brain imply a skin scent. The marshmallow fluff is the second element to grab me, and the one that lingers longest. The dryness/incense/sweetness reminds me of BPAL's Morocco minus the spices. There's also an aura of greasiness here -- more oily than coconutty -- and if I sniff close to my wrist I can definitely detect the cigarette burn! A clean, light scent that would be easy to wear in a lot of different settings, but with a little edge.

Pretty much agreed with the above. I haven't smelled Traditional Ghost for comparison but...this smells like sheets that have been slept in, motel hallways, and yea.... coconut oil. How it manages to smell oily is beyond me, but it's immediately identifiable. There's something in the combo that really makes me think of sheets that have been bleached and will need to be bleached again. I also get something like a skin musk in here. The lightly lemon frankincense from Vintage Wiseman Blow Mold is here, and a waft of marshmallow. The cotton (I think) is kinda crisp to me, a little sinus pokey but it's also not very present.  The coconut oil and motel-iness are strongest at first, with a hint of that cigarette burn, then it's kinda strangely wearable. Like a person would just smell this way, no perfume required. It's weirdly nostalgic of road trips from my youth. (If there was the scent of hairspray and my mimi's Oscar de la Renta, it would be dead on for many a vacation from yesteryear haha)
