BPAL Madness!

Recommended Posts

Our classic October perfume blend, chilled to the max! Inspired, in part, by my heater being busted at home. A really, really, REALLY cold, dry autumn wind, a rustle of red leaves, and a touch of smoke and sap in the air.

For people who have tried both: this is October + Talkvikuu. More October up front, more Talvikuu in the drydown.

 

For people who have not: the opening is outdoorsy, like a cool breeze across leaf litter or brushing leaves off damp earth in fall. It's mostly cool, earthy, and dry, a touch sweet and a touch smokey. Octobrrr goes for a fall that is not just cool but frosty, and evokes this with a note that is not straight mint but bristles the nostrils in the same way. As it dries, the dry-earthy notes subside, and the main impression is that frosty-cool almost-menthol note (that for some reason reads as oily to me, but likely not to others). As far as the concept, I'd say it's realistic (but not photorealistic): more daring than a mainstream scent is likely to be and close to the real thing but not a perfect imitation.
