tiger lily turns into.... here's a shocker... amber. lily tinged... amber. maybe it's the honey note? it's bizarre.
i probably run at about 50/50 with bpal, though i'm usually more "meh" than "gah!" since i've been learning what to avoid. i wore gluttony for the greater part of an hour before i realized i smelled like a sexy pancake and had to be stopped. the cinnamon didn't make me smell like a drugstore red votive candle, see, like the bpal cinnamon usually does. i was so excited i neglected to notice my amping of rich buttery maple syrup. blarg.
i have not tried any of the others you mention, though i think i liked sea of glass from chris' party. bliss is all chocolate, correct?
i sort of want to recommend alice to you--it's milk, rose, carnation, bergamot, and a little bit of honey.... it might suit you. i didn't have my imp yet at chris' party, and i don't think anyone else had it either. it's on my bottle list, now--i was surprised to find i like it much more than white rabbit, which sadly smells like latex gloves on me. :-(
Alice sounds nice. I can't remember if it's on my list of stuff to try (which keeps growing).
Bliss is all chocolate. Like, really, all chocolate. Total hershey kiss out of the bottle, and then it turns into a chocolate scented candle. You know it's chocolate and you immediately THINK chocolate. But it's not chocolate. But...I left it on my hand. No nauseaking gak scent. Just a mild chocolate candle on my hand.
It seems like so much of what I try turns to baby powder on me. Different degrees of sweetness in the baby powder but they all seem to end up some varying form of baby powder at some point.
So far the ones that go on smelling like lemon pledge or cleaning supplies turn into something really nice on me. So it'll be worth getting over the lemon pledge thing.
