hlemonds Report post Posted October 21, 2009 Um...Liz. Seriously. If you like leather and smoke (just a *bit* of smoke, not much), you need to try Liz. I totally agree, i find the vanilla in this one quite similar to Antique Lace, but with leather and a smidgeon of smoke added. Share this post Link to post
AthenaRose Report post Posted December 24, 2009 Is Antique Lace still unavailable? Is it ever comming back? It was one of my favourites. I was about to buy a big bottle of it, but it dissapeared before i had a chance. So sad. I even had a friend comment the other day... she was like, 'how come you don't wear Antique Lace anymore?' Aww Morocco and Black Opal are the closest things i have to it... and they aren't close enough. Share this post Link to post
Angelbaby Report post Posted December 27, 2009 Call me crazy, but I'm wearing (aged) Dana O' Shee right now and I'm amazed at how much it reminds me of Antique Lace. It has a very similar feel - sort of soft and fuzzy and comforting. Share this post Link to post
cfrancesca Report post Posted December 27, 2009 From the ones I've tried, these three are definitely very, very similar to Antique Lace: Mouses Long and Sad Tale Morocco (on me it's almost exactly like Antique Lace) Black Lace Share this post Link to post
Lorelai1945 Report post Posted December 27, 2009 It's funny; I think Morocco and AL are soooo different. Morocco smells like snickerdoodles on me and AL is a very powdery type of vanilla. The closest thing imo is aged Black Lace. It has the same powderyness and the same type of vanilla once it dries. Share this post Link to post

I totally agree, i find the vanilla in this one quite similar to Antique Lace, but with leather and a smidgeon of smoke added. Vanilla + Leather + Smoke...sounds fabulous! I thought Liz had some floral to it though, no? I'm askeered of the flowers!! Share this post Link to post
evilbee Report post Posted December 28, 2009 I'm really surprised no one mentioned this before. Mama-ji. To me it's exactly Antique Lace but... um... without the vanilla. I know that sounds strange, but it was exactly the same nose-tickling spices and feel. Maybe try layering it? Share this post Link to post

I thought Liz had some floral to it though, no? I'm askeered of the flowers!! I only get the tiniest hint of any floral in Liz, kinda like Antique Lace has a hint of floral with the vanilla to get the "linen" feel....it's only a suggestion of floral really, i don't find it very noticeable at all. Liz is a sexy, fiesty vanilla Share this post Link to post
devilot Report post Posted December 29, 2009 Re: discussion of Liz vs AL: I think it really really depends on skin chemistry (and maybe even batch differences). Because I absolutely love all kinds of vanillas and am an avid lover of leather-- but Liz really did NOT work for me at all. It was a cloying floral and tickled my nose (in a not-so-good way). So I strongly feel that Liz is "YMMV." Share this post Link to post
oakmoss Report post Posted December 29, 2009 Try Pink Snowballs (quickly, before they melt away!). Very similar in essence to Antique Lace. Share this post Link to post
eclecticaurora Report post Posted May 6, 2010 For me, Morocco is like a warmer version of AL. It's like AL was out in the sun and got a good glow about it. So basically, if you are able to take the musks warm and cool, it might be able to work out, but YMMV. Share this post Link to post
portalkat Report post Posted May 6, 2010 I find Boo and my aged bottle of the original Black Lace to be most similar to AL on me. Share this post Link to post

Good to know. Share this post Link to post
saralaughs Report post Posted May 6, 2010 Yeah, Black Lace is NOTHING like Antique Lace on me, so YMMV with that one too. Share this post Link to post
diamondstars Report post Posted June 28, 2010 Nooo! I haven't been able to purchase any BPALs for months now, and I've only just seen this announcement. I've been going through my one and only 5ml of Antique Lace so quickly lately, too. Hopefully it'll be available again at some point in the future.. Share this post Link to post
