BPAL Madness!

Recommended Posts

In The Bottle, I mostly get the smoke-and-wax notes I found delightful in last Weenie's Guttering Candle.

Wet On Skin: Upon contact, the lemon starts to emerge, which I'm relieved about, as it was this note that made me want to get this scent to begin with! Unlike the sharp-fresh lemon of Spirit Board: Yes and Happy Baby In A Long Dress or the candy-sweet lemon of Lemon Scented Sticky Bat, this is a heavy, blunted lemon that is befitting of its identification as a lemon *cream*, though I'd hesitate to say I detect much cream here, at least at this stage. 

Dry Down: If you lit some low-key nondescript incense, then extinguished it and then also blew out a lemon cream candle and walked out of the room only to re-enter a minute later, you would have this scent. This belongs to the pantheon of Beth's "How does she DO that?!?!" scents, where her artistry come shining through in not just interpreting a time or space or feeling but in somehow, impossibly, REPLICATING it. 

An absolute delight! 💛 🍋

I love this!

 

Lemon creaminess in the beginning and then spicy incense comes along. Long ago I combined two BPAL rarities and it was a go-to for me. I’d inhale my wrist constantly. When I remember that combo I’ll share it. One of the scents was Lamia, which this reminds me of in the best way.
 

But this is so perfect for spring, I need a bottle. And I haven't bought a bottle in a long time. 

ETA: I woke up this morning to traces of incense. Love the longevity. Sillage is not overwhelming.
