BPAL TESTS #5
Over the past two months I've bought/recieved some LE imps.. concise reviews of each
Pink Phoenix (I think this is the 05 version): (BPAL:desc unavailable, defaulting to friend's description) Pure pink cotton candy fluff!
In imp: *sniffsniff* ...oh! Smells dry fruity sugary!
Wet on skin: wow ok that comes on strong with the sweet smell, I'm getting some visions of the flavored cotton candy you used to be able to by at a roller-rink.
Drying on skin: mmmm.. definitely getting a dry strawberry, also a drier slightly currant note, still very sweet.
Dry on skin: I feel pretty, oh so pretty, I feel pretty and witty and gaaaay~
Memphis: ...oh jeez mom...
Rating: 5/5 damn good and an LE and why the FARK do the only remaining bottles I can find are international??
Carnivale '05: From Bewitching Brews
Carnivale:
Bright, intoxicating, hectic notes masking a twisted, corrupted core: sweet wild berry, spicy carnation and heliotrope layered over deep amber and musk. Bought it thinking it'd smell like a carnaval/party.
In imp: ..oh.. smells sorta caramel apple with a hint of lemon and.. ow something in there doesn't like me..
Wet on skin: ...KCUF!! Patchouli! Sweet patchouli with that sour stinky armpit smell... and slight floral...iiiiiick. patchouli.....
Rating: 0/5 *huff* hate patchouli we does... hate it like American IDOL!
Geek: (carnival noir 05' and recently 06 pitstop) A snarling, feral scent, ever-so-slightly slightly deranged: hot leather, opoponax, cedar, pine needle, mosses, dry grass, patchouli and cinnamon bark.
In imp: Something sharp herby, dry.. ..I kinda like. Bit like spruce but not spruce..
wet on skin: the herby notes are coming up, strong.. like I crushed a bunch of spruce needles underfoot, getting a little cinnamon and the eucalyptus sharp, cedar... and..
something.. not sure if I like that something
drying: oh.. godno. Patchouli. rotting earth patchouli. ... why god WHYYYY I liked the rest of it! my skin+patchouli.. it amps the patchouli and eats everything else.. ;-;
later inspection: dabbed little bit onto swatch of cloth and put into pillow. ...HELLO. Best dreams ever.
Rating:1/5, but has been revised.. 4/5 not gonna wear it, but DEFINITELY going to have to put it into a diffuser in my room when I sleep... sexy.
Strawberry moon: Strawberry moon is a blending of strawberries and cream with light, dry lotus and soft ylang ylang and a touch of green tea and sage to bring it closer to Earth.
- picked up for a friend who is MAD about strawberry/berry smells.
imp: I'm guessing it's aged because in the imp it smells strongly of a sharp just picked before evening strawberry. i'm getting no cream scent, but I can detect some sage.
not getting skin tested because i'm savin' it all for Kasey.
3/5 not the fuzzy's. not enough sweet or smoke.

Two, Five and Seven: A huge bouquet of squished rose petals: Bulgarian rose, Somalian rose, Turkish rose, Damascus rose, red and white rose, tea rose, wine rose, shrub roses, rose, rose, rose…
…and just an itty bitty bit of green grass.

in imp: ..freshgreenthings. Up until my nose has been fairly virgin when it came to rose smells. Now it is deflowered. it's sorta sweet.. but the smell of rose is overpowering according to mummafuzz.
skin: ...same, now I'm getting that teeny hint of crushed green grass but only barely. meh. it smells like real live flowers..but it's not fuzzy's thing to wear florals.
2/5 into the frimp/swap pile with you!
...and WHERE THE FARG ARE MY MONSTERS???
