BPAL: UNDERPANTS!
"MONSTER BAIT: UNDERPANTS — Who doesn't want a monster in their pants? Sexy sugar-smeared saffron sandalwood over lickable vanilla cream with a splash of butter rum."
I was so, so disappointed that I managed to miss this the one day it was available (April 1st, of course). Sneaky Sarah ordered an extra bottle and didn't tell me. I asked if she'd sell me a little sample bottle of it (thinking she just had the one bottle) and she said that that would not be a problem. Indeed! Well, tonight she came over and was like, surprise! Here's a whole bottle! This was especially generous because she could have easily sold this on ebay for two to three times what she paid for it, but she only wanted the original selling price from me.
Anyway! In the bottle it smells like CAAAAAAKE! I love cake. It's J's birthday this weekend and I am dying to bake him a birthday cake for both entirely selfish and unselfish reasons. Cake!
On my skin it smells like CAAAAKE! The sweetness backs off a little and the sandalwood comes out. It's like a spice cake. CAKE!

How, thematically, does a fragrance go from the title of "Underpants" to smelling like a cake? I mean, besides the fact that "underpants" is a great name for pretty much anything, including but not limited to actual underpants.
Okay, maybe this comment was just an excuse for me to type "Underpants" over and over. It's the best way I can think of to make a good first impression.

well, the series is called "Monster Bait", and is supposed to be for drawing the monsters out from under your bed, and out of your closet. and your underpants. or into your underpants. or maybe you're just supposed to feed your monsters cake to make them happy.

Well, sure, when you put it that way, it makes perfect sense.
