BPAL review: Jacob's Ladder



Jacob's Ladder

BPAL description: From the LE - Yule 2005 collection. The meeting of Heaven and Earth: golden amber, galbanum, benzoin, ambrette, rockrose, costus and tonka.

In vial: OMG AMBER

Wet: Amber and … something I can't ID.

Dry: Something faintly citrusy coming out.

Notes: The cat enjoyed it - started licking my wrist. I like this muchly. Don't OMG LOVE IT, but I think I may be making an order before the Yule scents vanish on the 15th, just because it's an LE.

benzoin

Sounds like a cream one applies to chaffed raw and sore areas...I don't suppose you could explain what Amber smells like? I don't think I've ever smelled it before...

Well, it's hard to explain ... it's one of the resinous scents, but that doesn't mean anything. On me, it goes into a sort of warm vanilla.
