Humbug

BPAL description: Vanilla licorice.

In the bottle: Extremely pale yellow oil. Vanilla and licorice, yup. Rich, creamy, artificial, sickly sweet vanilla. The licorice is sweet, true and natural but overwhelmed by the vanilla.

Snowblind

BPAL description: Vanilla mint.

In the bottle: Light yellow oil. Super sweet, foody, artificial french vanilla with a hint of peppermint. The two scents clash awfully.

Peitho

BPAL description: Lusty myrtle and jasmine with red sandalwood, stargazer lily, and clove over an opulent, rich bed of warm musk and bourbon vanilla.

In the bottle: Extremely pale yellow oil. Sweet, rich, and floral with a hint of spice. The jasmine is very strong, and the clove and lily are distinct a well. A bit oriental in feel, and somewhat 'traditional'. Sophisticated.
