tart Report post Posted August 20, 2004 [uncontrollable glee] Ahh, dammit. I'm giddy like a schoolgirl. Based on the idea of obeahmanism, this sounds pretty cool. http://www.angelfire.com/electronic/awakening101/obeah.html AHH I AM SO EXCITED NOW. I just dabbed some on. Strong. White and green and warm all at the same time. Smells like there may be a citrus note, maybe a light patchouli? I wish I were more familiar with masculine scents...There is something so familiar in here, but I can't catch it. Maybe there is the slightest hint of pine or cedar here, but not in a way that makes me feel sick (like Goneril did -- sorry). This is clean and clear and...as it's starting to dry, something darker is coming. I will update with more details. Share this post Link to post

cuervosueno Report post Posted August 20, 2004 Hello, I wondered about these mystery scents as well. I just got one called "Obeah" which I looked and looked for....thought I remembered seeing it somewhere earlier in the summer, but perhaps not. Anyway, I'd love to know what's in it, if anyone has any ideas. Its not something I'd wear--it struck me immediately as a serious scent...as for ritual work or something rather than as a perfume....It starts out with a very strong distinctive scent that is harsh, almost unpleasant, then fades to....pachouli perhaps? Anyway, I'm very very curious about it. Anyone know anything about it? Share this post Link to post
Belladonnastrap Report post Posted August 20, 2004 Gah tart you lucky ...tart! Head thee over to the review forum and post! It's been ages since we've gotten a new prototype! And while you're at it...Lampades review! Share this post Link to post

tart Report post Posted August 20, 2004 HAH! Obeah has its own place in the Up-and-Coming reviews. Pretty much the same thing I said above. http://www.bpal.org/index.php?showtopic=4676 Share this post Link to post

cuervosueno Report post Posted August 20, 2004 Thanks....I just found your postings...I hadn't tried the search on the forum yet....ok, so actually I didn't know there WAS one.... but had searched the BPAL site proper... I'll say more on the obeah posting... Share this post Link to post
tart Report post Posted August 20, 2004 Thanks....I just found your postings...I hadn't tried the search on the forum yet....ok, so actually I didn't know there WAS one.... but had searched the BPAL site proper... I'll say more on the obeah posting... It's all good. I searched on BPAL and I searched on the boards and couldn't find anything. A few lovely forumites told me I had a prototype, so that's why we both couldn't find anything on Obeah. Share this post Link to post
Scylla Report post Posted August 26, 2004 Just thought I'd update you following my saga: Hadaverde sent me an imp of Bewitched and I LOVE it! But it's not the mystery scent. And, as I said before, it's not Hollywood Babylon or Bon Vivant, either! So I guess I'm going to have to look at the lotus scents, as quantum spice recommended and order some more imps!

hypothermya Report post Posted August 26, 2004 Will we *never* know the answer!?! Honestly, I'm dying of curiosity. However, I'm glad you like Bewitched...it's a lovely scent. Share this post Link to post
summer Report post Posted August 26, 2004 Could it be Glitter?? Dragon's Milk also sounds likely. Ag, now I'm dying of curiosity too! Share this post Link to post
Scylla Report post Posted August 27, 2004 No, it's definitely not Dragon's Milk. Glitter is a good guess, but I don't smell any pear or white wine. It probably is one of the lotus containing oils, because it is always bubble-gummy at first. Maybe Blood Lotus? Who knows! All I know is, I have to get my hands on some more imps!

SpinalDesign Report post Posted August 27, 2004 Maybe it jester ,that has a candy like fruity smell to it. But that is awesome to have a mystery scent!! Share this post Link to post
BubbleDragon Report post Posted August 27, 2004 Could it be Jailbait, as mentioned recently? Share this post Link to post
Belladonnastrap Report post Posted August 27, 2004 Could it be Jailbait, as mentioned recently? You know that's a really good idea! It could be Jailbait ! Share this post Link to post
Scylla Report post Posted August 27, 2004 (edited) Could it be Jailbait, as mentioned recently? You know that's a really good idea! It could be Jailbait ! I wonder! Beth DID say that that would smell like strawberry bubble gum, didn't she! Hmmmmm..... ETA: Nope, it's not Jailbait either. Or Blood Amber, Blood Lotus or Black Lotus. The mystery remains! And now you can make it your own--it's for sale! Edited October 8, 2004 by Scylla Share this post Link to post
GothicMissManners Report post Posted September 26, 2004 In the oodles and oodles of imps I got today, there was one labeled 'Peace'. I've searched all over the main BPAL site, and cannot find it anywhere. Not even in Up & Coming. Help? -Jilli Share this post Link to post
Ina Garten Davita Report post Posted September 26, 2004 Well Miss Manners, it seems you got lucky with a yet-to-be-released prototype. How nice...be sure to do a review in the Up and Comings for us and let us know all about it! Share this post Link to post

grrrlennyl Report post Posted October 8, 2004 could it be formula 54? it doesn't sound as heavy as f54, but...worth a shot. Share this post Link to post
asa805 Report post Posted October 8, 2004 (edited) Sounds like Vice to me. Vice had zero chocolate on me. It was all bubble gum and then turned berryish on the drydown. I am thinking you actually do have vice. HTH Edit to say i jsut read your last comment on this. Woopsie. I really cant help you. I would have said Hollywood Babylon. Maybe it is Carnivale???
