What do bottles and labels look like?

[twilighteyes]

Hmmm I guess I'm more concerned about oil getting up into the space in between the stopper and the lid and then, when you open it, that oil going all over the place.

 

I've shot off an email to the lab to check on it because I just went after a few random bottles of mine with a pair of tweezers and the clear part definitely seems to be attached to the black part... I don't think they're supposed to be separate.

Mine do that every once in a while too. They just snap back into place normally.

Anybody have a photo of Snow Whites '12 and '13? I'm thinking about buying one, and since I can't decide on version, I'm thinking of going by label.

Hm, I can't believe I didn't buy it last year... I have 2004, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010. 2011, and 2013.... *scratches head* I think last year was too lean to buy much bpal or something. I can take a photo of 2013 at least. But really, the label looks exactly like the photo that BPAL has on their site next to Snow White.

Can't figure out how to get the photo here, but here's a link to a photo of Snow White '12 that I just put up on a page on Shutterfly.

Thank you!!! I am leaning towards finding a new one.

Question, anyone have a picture of the Lantern Ghost of Oiwa label? I vaguely recall it, and was just wondering about the colors. I just got a bottle from 2008 via a swap and am wondering if the label has faded a bit.

Any information on how the labels of the 2004 and 2007 runs of the Celestes differ? I have bottles of Pisces and Capricorn that I'm trying to date. (The labels don't look that different from the bottle of Leo 2007 that I have).

 

Thanks!

The Celestials from 2004 were paper and the regular labels that were on the GC like this (Miss Twilight's) and the 2007s look like this (opacity). Does that help?

That actually helps enormously, since now I know that the bottles I have are from the 2007-2008 run.

 

Thanks so much!

Hey has anyone noticed that the RPG Dwarf label isn't the same as in the picture on the website? My dwarf appears to be female and I was wondering if all the Dwarf bottles are like that now and the just haven't changed the website. Thanks

IIRC, all the RPGs have always been available with labels depicting either male or female characters. So, you could either randomly receive a bottle labeled with a male Dwarf or one with a female Dwarf. I would assume that if you wanted a specific gender for a role, like a female Ranger, that you could request a bottle with the female version of the label in the notes section of your order.

Thanks! That's great to know I would prefer female characters and now I know to request them.

Thanks lady, you solved my mystery!

Sorry for the late reply, but I just saw this.

[miamaslegi]

I need some help identifying this bottle (I figure it's not BPAL, so I hope that's OK!). I received it as part of a purchase, but I can't figure out what it is!

 

[alterosen]

It's Haunt: Rising (smoky berries for the win!)

Does anyone have pictures of the NYCC labels?

[radioaction]

I got my order from the Lab yesterday and I had purchased an imp of Alice. I ended up getting two imps: one with a plain label that just says "Alice" on the front (and looks like all the other imps), and one with a more decorative image on the front that looks like the image on GC bottles (like this). They smell different - the plain one is more milk and honey forward while the decorative one is spicier. Did I get an aged frimp? I've never gotten an imp that didn't just have text on the front (with the BPAL logo on the back) of the tag. Or do the imps sometimes come with different styles of label and this is the first I've seen of it?

Sometimes they do have them in different labels, but typically I've only seen them at cons. At the bpal booth they'll have imps of popular scents with the bottle art on the label attached to cards that list the notes. My guess is that they had extras after NYCC. (:

As long as it doesn't look like this:

Because then it would be Alice from the Pretty Deadly line (which are not orderable as frimps but are sometimes put on the cards and given away at conventions.)

I wish! Alice has tempted me for a while, but there's so much other stuff that I wanted bottles of. Alas, it's regular MTP Alice (which is still pretty yummy).

Sorry for the poor quality photo but this is my bottle of Lips of Flame. It's 'Adam and Eve' by Lucas Cranach the Elder. I imagine all of the 'Eve's Big Apple' scents had the same labels but I could be wrong.
