Epitaph

BPAL description: Roses and funeral lilies perceived, faintly, through an indistinct, ghostly mist.

In the bottle: Very traditional, lily-based white floral classic perfume-y, with a strong clean, almost soapy scent. The florals hit HARD.

Wet: More floral, but also soapier. Crazy strong throw! I amp all florals usually but especially lilies, it seems! No rose yet. I'm betting the ghostly mist is moonflower and/or tuberose as those go to instant soap on me.

Dry: The rose is peeking through, but only the barest little bit. But so did some powder; this is weird, it's a bit less soapy, as if some of the soap turned to powder. Which makes me really think tuberose as that's exactly what it does on my skin.

Summary: It doesn't last for that long, which is good because the lily-tuberose powdery soap thing was making me eye the faucet.
