zankoku_zen Report post Posted January 30, 2015 The essence of innocence shattered: glittering Egyptian amber and heliotrope, infused with the sweetness of strawberry and vanilla – dragged into debauch by lusty red musk and a dribble of black cherry. I may to try this one again, or maybe do more than one spritz. Almost immediately I get a hit of strawberry and black cherry, but that dissipates after about 15 minutes, and it's mainly an amber/heliotrope blend on my hair. Meaning it's very faint. I may roll it around a little more tomorrow and see what it does. Perhaps I'm used to slightly more assertive blends like Frosty Silkybat and the tobacco clove and dirt moss Weenie one, which have a bigger throw Other than that, my hair is glossy, moisturized and I really have to say that BPTP hairgloss has been a life saver this winter. It's kept the fritz and flyaways away. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
alterosen Report post Posted March 8, 2015 Musky strawberry candy! Nicer & less juvenile than it sounds. If I concentrate, I get an occasional whiff of cherry & vanilla/heliotrope. I like it, though the throw is rather lighter than I expected. Again, no worries about wearing it to work! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
goodnightnightvale Report post Posted May 7, 2015 You know what this smells like on my hair? Coral Snake! I'm not even kidding, and I love Coral Snake, so this is fantastic. A+. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Little Bird Report post Posted October 12, 2016 I expected this to have intense throw and staying power, but it's lighter and turns a bit baby powdery on me, which I don't get from the perfume oil at all. Mostly it smells the same, though, like a wonderful mashup of juicy, sweet strawberry and cherry with a grownup, sexy vanilla musk at its base. Just turns a bit baby powdery and fades rather quickly.

Kanra Report post Posted February 8, 2021 This HG is great! Very fun and fruity. It's sweet and a bit seductive at the same time due to the strawberry/cherry fruit combination juxtaposed with the red musk. This wasn't super faint on me, but also wasn't super strong. I really love wearing it, especially as a compliment to my fruity/musky fragrances. I haven't yet tried the perfume oil version of Hollywood Babylon but now I must. This is good stuff.

fairybites Report post Posted May 5, 2021 More cherry and powdery than the perfume oil in my experience. Kinda like a baby powdery cherry Pixystix? Throw is fairly good and stays a long time. Wish I got more of the musk and strawberry that I got in the oil, but it's still great and definitely one of my favorite hair glosses for sure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
