An effervescent blend of crystalline champagne notes and sweet strawberry.
In Irish folklore the Dana O’Shee are a fae, elven people that live in a realm of beauty, their nobility akin to our that own Age of Chivalry, eternally beautiful and eternally young. They surround themselves with the pleasures of the Arts, they live for the hunt, and to this day can be seen riding in procession through the Irish countryside at twilight, led by their King and Queen. However, the Dana O’Shee are not benevolent creatures, despite what their unearthly beauty may imply. They are vengeful and treacherous and possess a streak of mischievous malice, and many have whispered that their true home lies deep in the shadowed groves of the Realm of the Dead. Hearing even a single chord of their otherworldly music leaves one stunned and lost to the mortal realms for ever, finding themselves prey to the Dana O’Shee’s hunt or enslaved in their Court as servants or playthings.
Offerings of milk, honey and sweet grains were made to placate these creatures, and it is that the basis of the scent created in their name.
A shot of pure, self-indulgent euphoria! A scent that is very, very wicked in its own way: the serotonin-slathered scent of pure milk chocolate.
Though thy slumber may be deep,
Yet thy spirit shall not sleep;
There are shades which will not vanish,
There are thoughts thou canst not banish;
By a power to thee unknown,
Thou canst never be alone;
Thou art wrapt as with a shroud,
Thou art gather’d in a cloud;
And for ever shalt thou dwell
In the spirit of this spell.
A profound and entrancing potion. Deep, wispy, and unfathomably dark: vetiver, dark woods, crumbling and burnt black sandalwood and a drop of lemon rind.

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?

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.
