To BPAL or not to BPAL, that is the question

[missmiah]

Because I am a sheep, I've been thinking about ordering some imps from BPAL.

rewil gave me an imp of Zhombi which I promptly lost, dang it. And during her latest visit to the Pit of Red Dirt she dotted my arms with different smells and I decided I liked Whip. I think.

So there's two out of six imps I could order in a sampler pack.

Now I just have to figure out what else I might like.

I'd like to order soon because I would like to wear Zhombi for Halloween.

Also, I am miserable with cramps and therefore quite likely to snap and kill someone at any given moment. And the thought of doing a snappy little dance upon their bleeding bodies actually makes me sort of cheerful.

So, let's see ... Whip and Zombi are both rose scents. Another rose scent that's popular on the BPAL forums is Two, Five & Seven.

Here's a thread where they're talking about the cherry/almond smell, which I think you liked. And here's a general recommendations round-up that I used a lot to put together my first order.

Oh, and ... don't feel you need to order Jack. I'm just sayin'.

Oh, and: feel better!

(BTW, that's "Jack, the perfume" not "Jack, slang for 'nothing'." Just to be clear.)

I wonder how many subcomments I can make in a row?

Anyway, check this thread out too: Harry Potter scents?

Been awake for... 26 hours. Still cramping.

Also, I'm interested in some citrus scents, I think. Things that smell edible. Or eatible to quote Willie Wonka.

Well, that sucks. I'm sorry. :/

Citrusy. Lessee. I've heard good things about Embalming fluid and Aizen-Myoo ... and I think you should get Severin just because of the name (close enough!).

On a general foodie note, maybe try March Hare (apricot & clove) or Jester (kinda berry/fruity, I think). There's also Baba Yaga, which hasn't technically been released yet, but I've got one you should sniff. The reviews are all saying pineapple. I don't know about that, but it's a general sweet orangy smell that I really like and am wearing today.

Oh! and check out the chocolate ones: Bliss, Vice and Gluttony
