Seven Word Story: Lust Perfume Oil
Add to cartQuoth one of the wordiest humans who ever lived: “Brevity is the soul of wit.”
This spring we challenged friends and fans to answer that call, baring their souls (and more) in our steamy, Lust-themed #BPAL7wordstory contest
“Seduce us in seven!” we demanded, promising the winning story would be enshrined in a Limited Edition fragrance. The response was overwhelming — and downright filthy. Over eight hundred entries later, Lust found its new champion. The winning story, submitted via Twitter by @GeekDame, took flight in our perfumer’s imagination and resulted in the following myth-tinged tryst.
Congrats to the winner, and keep your quills sharp! #BPAL7wordstory is only getting started.

Claire –
Honestly a little puzzled by this one! I wasn’t very familiar with any of the three ingredients, so I knew I was in for an adventure. Both in the bottle and when I first put it on my immediate association was baby powder. For more detail, it’s a kind of faintly aquatic, powdery scent with the barest touch of what I’m going to describe as a root kind of smell? Not quite earthy, but close enough. Very clean. Not how I’d describe baby powder exactly, but somehow it’s quite similar.
This one stays close to the skin and in many ways results in a “skin amplified” kind of scent. I imagine this will be great for layering. In short, I do like it; it’s subtle and inoffensive. As an aside, I also really enjoy the seven word story; so tragic and evocative.
