This one is a little weird, in an interesting way. It is foody and gourmand without being overly sweet; it isn't savory either though. I think I smell a little coffee and a little custard and a...

This is one of BPAL's more popular scents from the General Catalog, and I slept on it for a very long time. Now I wonder why. I like amber, especially BPAL's amber, and that is definitely the star...

BPAL revisited their Carnaval Diabolique a couple of years ago, and I finally splurged on a full bottle of this magical elixir. It is so dreamy and wonderful, I can't even begin to describe it...

I love tea scents, and The Dormouse is almost as good as BPAL's Dorian. It is refreshing and soft, not astringent like some tea notes can get. It is a very nice blend, good for sunny summer...

This weird and fruity and eerie and fairly unique concoction is my absolute favorite perfume of life, not just from the BPAL catalog. It does smell similar to Alien from Mugler, but it is not an...

The older reviews all say that this one is "sweet and warm" and I completely agree. This perfume is subtly sexy, and I feel like someone would have to be very close to get the full effect. On me,...

I do not tend to like violet, so I thought i would hate this. I admit, I was wrong, and this scent is very lovely. In spite of the name, it is soft and pretty and not dark at all; it is an...

Eat Me is fruity and sweet, yet somehow it doesn't overwhelm. It just smells freaking delicious. I have had my bottle for years, and I love it. Wearing this makes me happy, and what else can we...

Sexy, alluring, dusky rose is something that I often want to smell like. I love roses--the scent, the flowers themselves, the plants, I just adore them. Black Phoenix makes amazing rose scents, and...

After being discontinued for a very long time, BPAL recently released a limited run of this scent and I was lucky enough to pick it up. I missed out on the original release by just a few months (it...

I didn't really expect to like this oil as much as I did, but it is kinda sexy and mysterious without being imposing or overwhelming. Amber can be kinda iffy on me sometimes, but BPAL's amber note...

I absolutely love Dorian, it is delicious and amazing, and I wear it quite often. To my nose, when I wear it, I get the tea and the citrus and a hint of the vanilla, but other people tell me that...

I like a lot of BPAL's Mad Tea Party scents, but I hadn't tried this one until very recently, which is a shame. It turns out that Alice is very pretty and nice, and exactly the kind of scent that I...

I like Snake Oil in theory, and in the bottle, but I just don't always love it on my skin. Not enough to have a full bottle, at least. I am not a big vanilla perfume lover in the first place, so I...

Black amber, leather, and myrrh.
I've been trying a few leather scents to find the perfect one, and this comes close for me. Shiny black leather like that of a riding crop, soft, gentle myrrh,...

Honestly smelled like the cheap Kyphi oil you get from new age shops to me. Literally like they just transferred it to smaller bottles. I am glad it was just an imp I had because I would have felt...

Smells like cinnamon incense, with something musky in there too. Very heady and sexy, like an upscale version of a head shop perfume. This is one of theirs that I have repurchased. $17.50 USD for a...

This one was just fail for me. Honestly I never smelled incense or anything of the sort that is mentioned. Mainly it just smelled like a Michael's craft store (cheap potpurri?) or a pomander imo....

This is one of the BPALs that has been a favourite of mine for several years. To me it smells like a combination of a latte and the vanilla/powdery scent of dry rotting paper (like a used book...
