zankoku_zen Report post Posted August 9, 2018 [No additional description provided.] So again, on wet, the pumpkin reigns supreme and I can smell a whiff of light chypre. As it dries, the pumpkin recedes to the background, and you get this light perfumey citrus chypre. It's very gender neutral, and honestly makes me think of sunlight through fall leaves. Bright, autumnal, cheery. Very atmospheric. This is for when every day is Halloween. Even if you have to go to work, in an office. Oh, and it's summer. Medium throw and wear length.

Little Bird Report post Posted April 29 Starts off smelling like I dropped a slice of vanilla frosted pumpkin cake into a tangle of dark weeds, including a strong impression of bitter, tangy dandelion greens. I enjoy the green opening, but over about 20 minutes, it gets more and more dry until it smells like dried, powdery oakmoss (not the spicier, vintage perfumey type of oakmoss that I love) and maple syrup with a hint of pumpkin spice. It oddly feels bland, washed out and powdery, yet also cloying from the maple syrup and sweet spice. The drydown makes me sad. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
forspecial_plate Report post Posted September 23 I took a chance on this but didn't know it has a particular note or accord that bpal uses, that is screechy and high pitched and feels like bleach fumes in my nostrils. I've never seen anyone else mention it, so it might be just me. I wish I knew what it is, it's in Apple Butter Rum off the top of my head and a couple other scents. I think there was a Shunga with mango and cream, that has it too. So for me this was a gamble that failed. I smell the pumpkin but with the screeching note this unfortunately doesn't work for me.
