BPAL review: Babalu Aye

This came as a frimp in one of the eBay purchases.
Visions of Ricky Ricardo
...but not from the scent, just the name. :D

Babalu Aye

BPAL description: A Twilight Alchemy Lab scent, which is only available at the Black Broom in LA. No real description, except that it's in The Orishas collection. Her's some info on the god Babalu Aye from the about.com religion section.

In vial: Very herbal.

Wet: Mellowing out. A touch of dirt.

Dry: A touch of eau de cardboard box. Sandalwood and suntan lotion in the herbiness.

Notes: The cat was not happy that I went into the bedroom where she'd sequestered herself in order to get an uninterrupted nap since I keep insisting on poking her awake to pet her, but she sniffed with ill-disguised grace and then went back to sleep. The suntan lotion comes out more and more. I think I'm mildly allergic.
