I
loved the S-A-D posts that Su From http://myperfumediaries.blogspot.gr/ and Dee
from http://365daysofsmells.blogspot.gr/ have started and I thought to start my
own mini-reviews!
I
also loved this blog https://ascentaday.wordpress.com!
For
day 1( I am a little bit late but I will try to catch up!) I choose one of the
moste strange and unique scents from my collection.
COMPANY:
BPAL
THE
SCENT: Dark Chocolate, sun-dried tomato,
pink peppercorn, thyme and comfrey
AVAILABILITY:
This was a limited edition in 2012. It came live on Valentine's Day with other
chocolate scents.
I
bought a decant of this ( 1ml sample) simple because I love chocolate scents.
The other reason was i was too curious to smell it. You don't find every day
perfumes with these notes listed! I had never smelled sun-dried tomato in a
perfume before. I was a little bit afraid that it was going to smell like
roasted chicken!
In
the decant: I get the dark chocolate and the saltiness from the sun-dried tomato
Wet
on skin: now the herbs are taking over
with a hint of chocolate. I don't
really know what comfrey is. The Greek translation is σύμφυτο, στεκούλι but I
have never heard of this herb before.
I
think that the comfrey with the thyme give an element of freshness to the
scent.
The
pink peppercorns gives a small amount of sweetness.
This
stays all day to my skin and I even got some compliments when I wore it. It;s
very well blended and after a while it blends with my skin chemistry in that
way that I forget that I wear perfume and I am wondering what it smells so
good.
A
little goes a long way and I am very happy that I have an imp of this but I
think this is enough for me. It’ s not a scent for everyday use but when I am
feeling like wearing it it’s perfect.
