Latest BPAL release

SUGAR MOON
Sugar cane, blue musk, mahogany, black orchid, black currant, violet, blackberry leaf, teak, strawberry, and dusky rose.

Nothing that really grabs me.


HANAMI
Sleeping under the trees on Yoshino mountain
The spring breeze wearing cherry blossom petals
In Japan, the advent of spring is heralded by a blanket of pink and white that spreads gently from the South to the North to cover the islands. Hana-mi translates to "flower watching", and it is a sport of leisure that has been enjoyed since the Heian Period.
A scent of peace, reflection, and renewal of the spirit: sakura, ume blossoms, and wisteria.

OMG YES YES YES YES No clue about wisteria, but cherry blossom and plum blossom are two ENORMOUS YES scents on me.


MORT DE CESAR
The essence of intrigue, betrayal, and impending doom.
[...]
Conspiracy and murder in the Theatre of Pompey: balsam of Peru, bitter clove, motia attar, amber musk, opoponax, cypress, red wine grapes, tagetes, spikenard, and blood accord.

I'd love to smell it, but I have grave doubts that it would work on me.

Yay, it will be an inexpensive update this time!

Oh wow, Hanami sounds pretty.

It wasn't that inexpensive an update: I splurged on two bottles since the shipping was the same. :D

As far as I remember, wisteria is a bit like cherry blossom. Maybe a little more almondy.

Cool! Then, with luck, it'll be good on me also. :D

Yeah--I'm going to chance that the cherry blossom and plum blossom will overpower the wisteria on my skin. (I used to live in a house with wisteria back in Korea--I'm not averse to it, but given how most florals go straight to powder on my skin...) Yay!
