Parfum du jour: Elegba
My friend
marz surprised me by sending me a huge amount of BPAL samples. She's sweet like that. :). So here begins some daily perfume reviews.
ELEGBA
The Spirit of the Divine Messenger, the Lord of the Crossroads, He Who Owns All Doors and Roads in this World. He is the intermediary between the Orishas and mankind, and stands at the intersection of humanity and the Divine. He opens all paths of communication, both mundane and Heavenly. His ofrenda contains coconut, tobacco and sweet, sugared rum. www.blackphoenixalchemylab.com/
When I first put it on, it smelled like butterscotch candies. or like those rum flavored life savers. yummy but not exactly what I would seek out in a perfume. But now as it starts to settle, the candy aroma dwindles and a deep musky/soapy smell emerges. It's unexpectly enchanting.
Rating: OOH!
