So, I opened my first imp from BPAL today. I tried "Ode on Melancholy" today.
Ode on Melancholy: Beauty, joy, pleasure and delight: devastated. This is the scent of the hopelessness, torment and despair of love. Lavender and wisteria, heart-wrenching pale rose, desolate white sandalwood and thin, tear-streaked white musk.
I really like this one. It's very pale (can I use that to describe a scent?) and brings to mind a lonely spirit, wandering through rose-strewn corridors, looking for lost love.
It fades after a bit, but I still catch hints of it.
