BPAL review: Florence

[telophase]

Florence

BPAL description: From the Wanderlust collection. The pearl of the Italian Renaissance. Elegant iris, bright berries, gilded amber and velvety spices.

In vial: A bit of fruit, a bit of flowers, and something underneath it all that I can't identify, although it's in a lot of things. Sort of herby/spicy/dirt. Hm.

Wet: The thing I couldn't identify exploded into wood.

Dry: Wood. And it's faded a lot - I can barely smell it.

Notes: Cat irritated that I woke her up, no reaction otherwise. This faded incredibly fast - within ten minutes I could barely smell it. Too bad - I kinda liked it.

*fascinated* It sounds like it became on you roughly what it was on me, although mine lasted longer. Not super-long, but it stuck around for a while. Gosh.

There's some things that completely vanish on me, and this is one of them. I just tried Kumiho, and it was subtle to start with, and has now vanished. I think I'm going to poke around this pile of imps and find something strong, whether I think I'm gonna like it or not, just to have something last.

I wore Athens most of the day, which was a nice incensey honey and stuck around until 3 or 4 PM before vanishing, so I have proof that something likes me today, at least!
