I might have time to do a review before hubby gets home and I have to cook.
How about Wicked???
Yellow in color.
Whoosh!! Florally--strong floral!! Almost a cloying floral. Very strong. On the hand it first has a smell of band-aids. Then it flows into a lemony flower. This may have some roses in it. Jasmine?? Bah!! I like this a lot. Needs a light hand though. It's sweet, strong and heady. Doesn't really remind me of anything because the band-aid smell is gone. What's in this?
A paean to all the Wicked Queens, Evil Stepmothers, and other misunderstood villainesses throughout history and lore. Lends an aura of majesty, refinement, strength, and a deep, brooding malice. A sophisticated, womanly scent: rich myrrh and jasmine draped in the subtlest rose.
Jasmine!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That's IT! I knew it! Yes! Yes! Yes! Gorgeous scent, perfect for bath bombs. I need a gallon.
I won a lot of bpal imps on Ebay because there were some faves of mine in the lot that are hard to get my hands on...... Titania, The Great Sword of War, Lilith, and Y'ha-nthlei.
In that lot were a few that I didn't have.......Sheol, RPG Series -Neutral, The Knave of Hearts, Wicked and The Phantom Wooer.
I have several others from the RPG Series and I love them all so I am assuming I will like Neutral too. <crossing fingers>
Let's try that one today. (and probably another one) I didn't want to try it before posting here so I've been eagerly waiting!
Neutral
Red in color. No, now that I hold it against the light it's pinkish orange but not dark. WOW! In the vial it's all FLOWERS! I was NOT expecting that. The other RPGs I have are all sweaty, manly, musky and strong. I know already I like this though and it hasn't even touched my skin.
Lily of the Valley? Super super clean smelling and fruity fresh girly. Ahhhh, I love this! This could be bottled as a current fragrance and sold over the counter and it'd sell like crazy! OMG I love this!!
This has moved into the number one spot on my bpal faves. I am serious. And there isn't an ounce of patch in it........that I know of anyway. I'm usually a resin incence gal...what's happened to me!?! I have to see what's in this.
BPAL's site: A flawless skin musk.
What?? This doesn't smell like musk to me ....at...all. It's candy, light, gumdrop flowers. Okay...as it dries it's a bit deeper. Still doesn't seem like musk to me though. Regardless, it's a keeper and big bottle winner, and they still sell it so I don't have to track it down through ebay. Yay. I've never bought from bpal directly though unless it was a listing of theirs on ebay. The BPAL company sells on ebay too and their oils sell at incredibly high prices on there. I saw one of their listings go for over 300.00 on ebay, for one 5 ml bottle of something, I forget the name. There's a bottle of Storyville listed by them right now that's already at $124.50 as I type. If you're reading this in a few months this link won't get you anywhere:
See what I mean? They start their auctions at their normal BPAL price of $17.50 but they usually sell things that are no longer available, and that's why they go for so much. Storyville is a much coveted oil. I would not doubt if this ends at a price over 200.00. I'll try to remember to watch it and post here later what the ending amount was.
(2-25 6:24 PM-it's at $304.99 and has 24 hours to go!)
And the ending price is!!!:
Winning bid:
US $431.00

Crazy eh? That's the highest I've ever seen one go.
Back to Neutral. It's still sweet and candy like to me. Still loving it too. I want more than one bottle! This is something I could wear all the time. It's lovely!
Okay, gonna do another one since I teased that in the beginning......
Hmm.....Wicked or Phantom Wooer??? Let's do the Phantom Wooer since the name's cool and it has no color.....
I get that sunflower seed smell in the vial and some sharp florals. Moss too.
Oh wow, I swear on my skin I get a coconut, some aftershave and mint. It reminds me of my husband in a way. This is so different in the vial compared to on the skin! Crazy instant morph! I like this a lot. It's so different than any other bpal I've smelled. It's gender neutral too. I'm going to get Jeff to wear it tonight. I think he will since it's not a musk or patchouli--which he hates.
What's in this?
A lifeless love song: stargazer lily, bone dust, tomb mosses,
buttonweed, moonflower, and honey myrtle.
Hmph. That's a wild assortment. I still smell coconut though. LOL This is really subtle and mysterious smelling. Not subtle in the way that's it's difficult to smell because it's light, but subtle that it doesn't assault the senses and it's not abrasive.
Here's the poem that goes with this:
A ghost, that loved a lady fair,
Ever in the starry air Of midnight at her pillow stood; And, with
a sweetness skies above The luring words of human love, Her soul the
phantom wooed. Sweet and sweet is their poisoned note, The little snakes'
of silver throat, In mossy skulls that nest and lie, Ever singing "die,
oh! die."
Young soul, put off your flesh, and come With me into the
quiet tomb, Our bed is lovely, dark, and sweet; The earth will swing
us, as she goes, Beneath our coverlid of snows, And the warm leaden
sheet.
Dear and dear is their poisoned note, The little snakes' of
silver throat, In mossy skulls that nest and lie, Ever singing "die, oh!
die."
Well THAT'S EFFING CREEPY!!
Hehe. The oil is great though, a keeper and possible big bottle winner, as long as Wimpy Chicken Shit likes it. ;)
