BPAL review: Akuma

[telophase]

Akuma

BPAL description: From the Diabolus collection. Devilish temptation, as sweet as sin: blood orange, neroli, and raspberry.

In vial: Hrm. There's a top note in here that I really don't like. Bitter?

Wet: That icky note blends a bit and the raspberry comes out more.

Dry: Raspberry with a bitter aftertaste.

Notes: Cat more interested in sleeping than smelling. Not for me - the raspberry is OK, although reminiscent of kiddie cosmetics, especially flavored lip gloss, but that bitter scent is … ick. I think it's the neroli.

Yes! That would be my ultimate worst combination, too! (But we aren't BPAL twins, though, because Aizen-Myoo is *divine* on me.)

I tried Akuma at a meet-n-sniff and it was horrid. I was blaming the blood orange, because I'd tried other blends with neroli with no problem, but maybe it just wasn't prominent enough to stink before....
