Corvus Corax Report post Posted November 10, 2013 I am in love with Makhanitis and Prospero. The plum and wine notes make me swoon. I must have more BPAL oils that are similar to Makhanitis and Prospero. Any suggestions? Thanks! Share this post Link to post
Poenari Report post Posted November 10, 2013 I am in love with Makhanitis and Prospero. The plum and wine notes make me swoon. I must have more BPAL oils that are similar to Makhanitis and Prospero. Any suggestions? Thanks! Those scents are two of my favorites. The one I found to be the closest to Makhanitis, if you like patchouli, is Urd, in the Excolo line of the GC: Muscadine, black and red patchouli, cereus and nag champa. Urd is more headshoppy than Makhanitis, but I find the wine note very similar. Also, if you don't mind some chocolate, another one I really like is Centzon Totochtin , also a GC in Excolo: The Four Hundred divine rabbits of the Aztec pantheon that preside over parties and drunkenness. Bittersweet Mexican cocoa with rum, red wine, and a scent redolent of sacrificial blood. And another good wine scent is the LE The Zadok Allen Vineyard, which was a Lupercalia scent, but decants show up for sale on the forums fairly often. A deep velvety Cabernet Sauvignon with hints of plum, black cherry, rose petals, coffee bean, and smoky oak. Barrel and bottle aged, with a smooth and spicy hit mid-palate. Hints of Dagon's tarry black incense and clotted blood complete this well-rounded, robust indulgence. Share this post Link to post

I have not had the chance to try The Zadok Allen Vineyard, but would love to give it a try. Thank you for your suggestions! Share this post Link to post
Corvus Corax Report post Posted November 11, 2013 (edited) Please keep the recommendations coming. I would like to find more dark plum and wine scents. Edited November 11, 2013 by Corvus Corax Share this post Link to post
Vega Report post Posted November 26, 2013 I don't like wine, but love plum. Berry Moon 2011 gave off a whiff of berries before going all boozy on me, but it may work for you! On the other hand, Countess Willie was a perfect balance of amaretto and plum musk (and spices), and is one of my favourite scents. I haven't tried Bette Noir, it only has plum and no wine, but it may work too. Share this post Link to post
Fuhrankie Report post Posted November 26, 2013 Athens might be a go for you. It's crazy red wine and cooking herbs on me. It woudl definitely work well on the right person. Also Cockaigne if you're after cake and wine. Share this post Link to post
