BPAL review: Brisingamen
Brisingamen
BPAL description: From the Love Potions collection. The amber necklace of Freyja, Norse Goddess of Love, Sex, Attraction and Fruitfulness. Her magnificent necklace was bough from four Dwarves [Alfrik, Berling, Dvalin and Grer] at the price of four nights of her passion. When Brisingamen graces your throat, no man can resist your charms. A glittering mantle of rich golden notes: five ambers, soft myrtle and apple blossom, myrtle, and carnation.
In vial: Sort of a floral, with a touch of fruit - apple or pear. Not cloying.
Wet: Light florals with a warm, golden base. Mmm.
Dry: It's getting a bit powdery, but a nice soft powder. The vanilla-y warm note is slightly harsher now.
Notes: We have a WINNAR!! FInally, after all this time of shoving my wrist in front of the cat to sniff ... we have a REACTION! I rubbed my finger on my wrist and presented it to the cat to smell … and she licked it! To test, I let her sniff another finger, which she licked once and then stopped, and the tried the original finger again, which got licked again. (...) And I just stuck my wrist in front of her face ... and she licked it. XD *My* reaction isn't quite so enthusiastic, but I like it. I don't think I'll rush out and buy a bottle - I already have too many bottles and will never wear them all - but I think I'll hang on to the imp and wear it.
It should be amended to read:

I'm assuming the Social Committee - it's typical of the chair's sense of humor - and this week is my one-year anniversary here. But that has not been confirmed. :)
