Here are three more Bpal reviews for everyone :)
Sin and Salvation
Innocence defiled. Sticky pink bubblegum and the thick, sweet scent of orange and cherry lollipops smeared over a breath of heady womanly perfume.
I got this as a freebee in an order, and I was excited because I wantd to try it so badly...
In the imp vial: Very very sweet, like a candy, or cherry lolli pop....But it was SO good! Almost intoxicating, and something about it was just...naughty and peverse. It brought out all kinds of insane thoughts in my head.
Wet on my skin: Cherry blow pop. Exactly like a cherry blow pop, but something underlying was cinnamon, and maybe some orange? Not sure. The more it sat - the more it started to smell like cough syrup....oh no!
Dry down: The cough syrup smell didn't get any better sadly. It started to make me feel sick after a while, and I felt like I had spilled some Benalyn on me or something. It just became SO sicky sweet it was revolting, and the cherry went very synthetic. Almost kiddy perfume like.
This had pretty good throw - but, honestly I didn't want people to be able to smell me wearing it because it smelled THAT bad on my skin. I wanted to love it, I wanted it to work...but I'm just not that lucky with this one I guess.
It has lasting power too - because even when I tried to wash it off - it stuck to my skin.
*sighs*
My first Bpal to go wrong.
Sad day for me.
Limited Edition - 2005
Revisited! ‘The Devil’s Bake Sale’ has come back to town.
I recieved this in an imp that I purchased....
In Bottle: Woah....very very sweet, with a very boozey tone to it. It reminds me of summery alcoholic drink I had a few years ago....A very sweet rum mix...
It's almost tempting to tilt the vile and drink it!
Wet On The Skin: Woah, this is like burnt brown sugar - creme brulee, with rum mixed in...I want to lick this...It's just...to die for...wow wow wow...
Tons of throw too while wet...This excites me just a little too much...It's just, edible and...good..and....*dies*
Dry Down: Hmmm...torn.
It smells kind of like butter now.
Sweetish, buttery type of smell.
I don't know if I enjoy this now as much....
The booze note is still there - just...fainter.
I don't hate it....
But I must consult with a few to help me figure out how much I like this on me...and whether or not it SMELLS good on me....I'm THAT torn.
Well, we have concluded that it smells like popcorn on me now....
Yucka.
This one is going in the "did not work for me pile..."...It didn't smell BAD on, but it just does not smell GREAT.
I am glad that I didn't get this one in a large bottle.
Rating: 2.5 / 5 - over all smell
4 / 5 - throw
4.5 / 5 - lasting power
Limited Edition
Devil’s Eve, Devil’s Night, Gate Night, Trick Night, Mischief Night; whatever your name for it might be, the chaos is still the same. Contrary to popular belief, this festival of pandemonium isn’t unique to Detroit. Falling on October 30th, it is an evening of mayhem and destruction. On the gentler side, it may be celebrated by practical jokes, an egging, Ding-Dong-Ditch, or enthusiastic TP’ing of your most hated neighbor’s trees, and on the more violent side, arson and vandalism. This is the scent of autumn night, fires in the distance, with a touch of boozy swoon, playful sugar and thuggish musk.
In The Bottle: Fresh, crisp, smokey....Oddly it DOES remind me of a fall evening...I will admit that when I read the description of it before purchasing this imp, I was skeptical of it smelling good....If the imp is true to what it will smell like on the skin - I am going to be one happy girl!!!
Wet On the Skin: Wow...it starts out a little...intense as well as smokey, but I like it...Oddly. I want dry down to happen...badly, I want to see how this turns out...will it be as fantastic as it is now? It's so, so crisp but the smokey tones to it make it warm and soooo delicious!!!!
Dry Down: Divine. Plain and simple...it's so fresh - which is wierd to say when it still has that smokey smell to it...but it really is. It's so multi-dimensional!!! The lasting power is ok - not the greatest on my skin, but it does stay for a while...
Scent Rating: 4/5 - I must get this in a larger bottle
Throw: 3/5 - not the strongest thing I've worn - but people within a close range did smell it on me
Lasting Power: 2.5/5 - although this didn't stay on my skin long, I still want a bottle...
I know a lot of people saw this as an ideal fall scent, but I would seriously wear this ANY time of year....But ot would be the perfect fall perfume.
