‘Tis said that when
The hands of men
Tamed this primeval wood,
And hoary trees with groans of woe,
Like warriors by an unknown foe,
Were in their strength subdued,
The virgin Earth Gave instant birth
To springs that ne’er did flow
That in the sun Did rivulets run,
And all around rare flowers did blow
The wild rose pale Perfumed the gale
And the queenly lily adown the dale
(Whom the sun and the dew
And the winds did woo),
With the gourd and the grape luxuriant grew.
So when in tears
The love of years
Is wasted like the snow,
And the fine fibrils of its life
By the rude wrong of instant strife
Are broken at a blow
Within the heart
Do springs upstart
Of which it doth now know,
And strange, sweet dreams,
Like silent streams
That from new fountains overflow,
With the earlier tide
Of rivers glide
Deep in the heart whose hope has died —
Quenching the fires its ashes hide, —
Its ashes, whence will spring and grow
Sweet flowers, ere long,
The rare and radiant flowers of song!
A sunlit ancient forest, dotted with wild roses, grape vine, and queenly lilies, clothed in swirls of opium smoke.
The Dark Side of Fire: cinnamon, bitter almond, and neroli. Heavily spiced, torrid, and possibly conflagrant.
True, perfect golden light, refined into an incomparably glorious scent.
Evocative of the sea’s unplumbed mysteries. Gentle and lovely, but menacing and profound. Coconut, Florentine iris, hazelnut and opalescent white musk.

Unfortunately it’s not what it used to be. It’s now a linear peach, anise, and heliotrope scent, and does not change much in the drydown.

I got this as an imp from an order and I’m sad I didn’t order a full size! As soon as I am close to finishing this imp, I will be ordering the full size.
Initially, it feels regal but still ethereal. Like I am a mythical creature preparing for afternoon tea. It mellows but still lingers as I continue wearing it. It could seem pretty powdery or “perfume-y,” so be sure to try fragrances before purchasing, but I am in love and eager to buy a full size!

A mix of bubbles, unknown flowers, fruit juice, and summer. Makes me smell very pretty, though it can be a bit of a childish scent.

This is a pleasant scent, but it’s not for me. It leans far more feminine. Much more delicate, powdery and floral than I expected it to be. It’s also deceptively strong. Wet, I felt I could just barely smell the bergamot and the peach…but as it sits on my skin and warms up, it becomes nothing but heliotrope and that powdery/soapy scent. Again, it’s pleasant to the senses, but it’s not what I want to be wearing all day. I’m curious to see if it ages differently as other reviewers have said.

I like this scent. It’s fairly unusual and it lingers in an odd way. It’s sweet and musky and I can definitely smell a bit of bergamot. I think if it were a little less musky I would enjoy it more but otherwise it’s very fine indeed. I think you only need a small amount for it to work because otherwise it’s a little overwhelming.

Starts off smelling like anise and musky peaches. After about maybe 10 minutes, the anise note starts to fade and it becomes a fruity, floral musk. It’s one of my favorites from BPAL’s catalogue.

This is my favorite scent in the entire world. I’m probably on my 6th bottle? To me it smells like sweet, musky peaches and anise. It’s the perfect every day scent, appropriate for every season but I reach for it the most in the spring and summer. It’s not a complicated scent. It’s simple and quietly lovely. Every time I wear it I feel good. What else could you ask for?
Margot –
Citrus and floral. Mellows with age

Got this one as a frimp, and I’m so glad! It’s delicate, light, but grounded and given body by the fruit (I definitely get peach, not citrus) with a little bit of sweetness. I really like it.

I bought an imp of this a few years ago. I didn’t care for it then; it was a little too soapy-floral. But it’s aged wonderfully into something musky and sweet. I really like it now.

Refreshing yet sweet citrus. One of my favorite scents

Soft and sweet and a little powdery. A bit innocent feeling for it’s moniker, but nice. It really lingers; I could still smell it on me the next day.
