I got this in a set of imps, and of the ten I got, Pele is easily my favorite. BPAL calls it a blend of "muguet and Hawaiian white ginger enveloped by warm, damp tropical blooms." I don't get...

Definite full bottle! Pele is a warm, soothing, ethereal scent. I love the soft florals and ginger together. I have no idea what muguet smells like, but whatever it is, I like it. The lasting...

A very nice floral, on the sharper side. Not a relaxing floral scent. The scent doesn't morph after drydown. Like this one. It smells like the Elariia gardenia body crème that I have.

Pretty! Not something I'd wear everyday, but the combination of muguet and white ginger is fresh, soft, feminine and simply lovely. I'm hanging onto my imp for a while; I think I might like Pele...

I'm very disappointed with <b>Pele</b>. It's a pretty scent -- soft Hawaiian florals with a touch of Ginger -- but I expected it would smell more like Hawaii than it actually does. Hawaii has a...

Soft floral with a hint of ginger that's never obtrusive nor sweet. Quite beautiful. Staying power isn't so great, though. One of my favorite BPALs, as it doesn't smell sickly sweet.

My first BPAL received in trade from die-hard fan! Never heard of BPAL before this, but love this oil and ordered most of the Christmas L/Es (soooo impressed w/ this ONE little vial) to the tune...

This scent reminds me of the old postcards from Hawaii my mother has. They are these pictures of idyllic gardens and beaches and if they were scratch and sniff, this is what they would smell like....

Light tropical white floral. Smells almost fruity, sort of like pineapple, and Hawaiian blossoms. Pleasant but fades very fast.

Light, clean floral. So light and clean, in fact, that I can barely smell anything at all. I'll give it another try in a few days in case I have olfactory burnout from sniffing my new imps. It's...

Very nice scent but not for me. For some reason a strong note of jasmine came through on me which is the one scent I can't handle. Even so, I still liked the overall blend. It is very tropical yet...

From start to finish, Pele stays soft, warm and subtle on me. It smells like heat, though not in a sensual body heat sort of way. More like clean air on a hot day would. There are mild flower...
