BPAL - Arachne
"A gossamer scent, as light as a spider's footfall, touched with sighing mists: pallid flowers, dusty woods and soft herbs."
not inaccurate after drydown, although this is very much a "perfume" scent to me... not entirely pleasant, and i really don't think it's me. there's a general "baby powder" ness to it that i dislike. it's light, yet somehow... cloying, as well. the more it fades, the more i like it, however. there's that "grandma's perfume" note to it as well, again... except this time, it's not really pine. sigh.
my nose is very untrained.
i just love these descriptions of dark woods, moss, dust, earth... and i don't know what i expected them to smell like, but it wasn't this.
well. lots more are on the way. i am sure i'll find things i like... it's just a slightly disappointing beginning.
oh i just remembered-- in the bottle it reminded me of a medicine i took when i was a child. i can't remember which one.
the more it fades, the more i like it.
