BPAL Review: Lust
Dec. 22nd, 2006 03:15 pmLust
Website Description: A 'Sins & Salvation' scent. Uncontrollable passion and insatiable sexual desire: red musk, patchouli, ylang ylang and myrrh.
In Vial: A thick heavy scent, almost entirely the musk with a little patchouli underneath it. This smells like it should come out as syrup instead of oil.
Wet: Wow, this is dark. You can actually see the perfume on my skin, which is weird. It fades out very quickly, turning to a sort of sweet floral with a musk base. Pretty, but very light.
Dry: Okay, you can't see the perfume anymore, which is good. The floral's gone, and it's pretty much all myrrh. I think. I'm not exactly sure of what myrrh smells like, but this reminds me of the one time I smelled some, unless I've completely forgotten. It's a sort of gritty incense-y smell. It's nice, though not at all the scent I would use, if I were making a perfume called lust. After a while it fades out even more, until it's just a very faint mix of musk and myrrh. I like the smells of this, but it's very weak on me. It seems so pointless to wear perfume if you can't smell it.
