Spellbound

A deep, dark, resin and rose scent, I found this to be very strong and very empowering. I got very strong resin and amber from this scent, with the rose tuning it down ever-so-slightly. I wear this on days when I want to feel strong and powerful.

LAB'S DESCRIPTION "Perfectly enchanting! An irresistibly sexual, utterly rapturous blend of three roses, radiant amber, and sensual red musk." The wet stages of this perfume are AB-SO-LUT-ELY STUNNING!!! Yes..it's rose but it's a dark, incensey, smokey rose. It just about resembles rose to me so, if you're usually scared of them this blend might still work for you. I'm not too fond of rose myself but since smelling "Othello" and this, I can be turned. I think it's kind of similar to "Scherezade" or I'd say a girly version of "Czernobog", it's that sensual, sexy red sort of smell. I adore red musk too so. I think I'm probably a bit biased. Red musk dominates here.. This would be a very sensual scent for a woman to wear out in the evening when she's dressed up very glamourously! Unfortunately the dry stages are not as swoonworthy. The musk is more apparent and kind of takes over..not that I mind. It's still nice. I just think that the wet stage is where the magic happens with this blend on my skin!

Review of sample that's been setting in a cool dark place for 8 years. Directly from the dabber: Another one that smells like maybe it's gone off, at least I hope so. I don't remember ever being impressed with this. It smells likd unpleasant floral notes with some creamy sweetness

another BPAL where i like all the notes, and they usually work on me but this one just doesn't. BPAL's rose scents can be hit or miss on me and in a very extreme way. this one just does not work unfortunately.
