One of the things that I always find so interesting about Bpal is how different they smell both on different people and what notes people pick up on when smelling them. I really really wanted to like the green phoenix but it smelled too much like a green candy to me! hehe The white phoenix on the other hand smelled really nice on me so I got a bottle of it!
I just ordered a couple of the love poems. They smelled so nice and creamy on me! Love's Philosophy and To Helen were the ones. I also grabbed two seasonal LE's: Hexxanacht and Beltaine.
They are so addictive these smellies!!! The November one you posted about sounds really interesting!
See, White Phoenix is primarily white florals, so it wouldn't matter how it smelled on me, it'd be an instant migraine trigger. *G* I can see how Green Phoenix could easily go into candy if the sweeter notes were more amped up on your skin. I was pleased they didn't jump out on me.
I eyeballed Love's Philosophy, but while vanilla smells good on me, it's not really me, so I decided to go for some Snake Pits instead. And then the Tiki Bar came up, and I had to get some of those. *G*
November went through some really interesting phases on my skin. Still not sure it's one I'll be keeping around, but it was cool to try. I've got a friend or two who want to try it, one of whom will be coming out in May. If she doesn't lay claim to it, want me to set it aside for you?
Yeah, a lot of the white florals turn into migraines for me too. Thankfully, it didn't seem to happen with White Phoenix. The Green Phoenix candy-like smells definitely got amped on my skin though and made me think of gummy candies. Yum! But not for wearing as a body scent! lol
I would be thrilled if you'd set aside November for me if your friend doesn't want it! ^^ Thanks! I should rummage through mine and see if there's one that might interest you for a swap! *grin*
