Dead Leaves and Pumpkin Seeds

Every leaf tells a story.

Dead Leaves and Pumpkin Seeds. Its got that pumpkin flesh on it, kinda nutty, and then Dead Leaves. Yup. As advertised. Good throw and wear length.

[Juushika]

In vial: Dryly vegetal.

 

On me: Goes on with pumpkin in the throw and leaves closer to the skin; the dead leaf note is obvious and gives a slight powdery, spicy edge to a nutty, slightly sweet pumpkin--very promising. But as this dries down, pumpkin predominates. It's not too waxy or powdery, which I tend to get from BPAL pumpkin, but it's pretty sweet and one-dimensional. Almost no throw.

 

Verdict: That initial nutty, toasted, vegetal pumpkin/leaves combo well fulfills the intent of this blend, but my skin chemistry renders this pleasant but unremarkable. Too bad!
