Petite Insoluble



Riddle me this, BPAL...

Who on god's green earth can take a fairly straight forward scent like, say, the unpronounceable

Baobhan Sith:
The ghostly White Women of the Scottish highlands. They seduce unwary travelers by night with their unearthly beauty and mesmerizing dancing. They engage their victims in a wild, hypnotic dance, and once they reach exhaustion, the demonesses exsanguinate their partners with their vampiric kiss. Talk about a quick courtship. Grapefruit, white tea, apple blossom and ginger.

In the imp one can clearly smell grapefruit and a kind of floral/tea aroma. It is light, pleasant, with a real kick behind it.

Then put it on and get.....lilac! And not fake perfume lilac, but the actual smell of being a little girl and going outside the play under huge purple cones of blossoms. I can only guess that it must be the grapefruit that evokes the sharp tang of fresh greenery.

*raises hand* That's me. I'm her. Lilac. From grapefruit, tea, ginger and apple blossoms.

This, this can only be described fully as being my new Happy Place scent. I am just in love with it, though utterly perplexed.

Apparently you can! Congrats. :)

(It's pronounced 'banshee', btw. :) )

Thank you to both.

I love it, it's just *such* a head-scratcher.
