I love BPAL. This review will be 100% biased by the fact that I adore the perfumes that they make and I like the brand's whole schtick. Naturally, over the years I have had my fair share of duds, but ...Read more

I reviewed this company long ago, but I think it needed updating since my opinion about them has evolved over the years. As such I deleted the old review and started over with what I feel is a more co...Read more

BPAL was my first introduction to indie perfumes and I must have tried over 100 of their scents. I have 2 that I liked enough to buy full bottles of. That is not a great hit rate. While there are alw...Read more

I was briefly into BPAL for about a year, and thats how long it took me to find anything in their line I liked. BPAL is a great lesson in marketing, their website is fascinating and engaging, the prac...Read more

Just because something isn't "mainstream" doesn't make it fake, or less than. It's just different, and there's certainly nothing wrong with different. And to be honest, some of the most interesting ...Read more

If this rating was for marketing and copywriting, I'd give BPAL 5 stars. But it's for their perfumes, so they'll get nothing close. I fell for the BPAL hype for a while, and still own more than my sh...Read more

I am not going to get all super-poetic or anything, but I will say that I adore BPAL. As a previous reviewer said, it is like art. In my experience, the fragrances are so much more real. BPAL's rose n...Read more

I've loved a lot of the scents I've tried, even if they were bad on me (skin chemistry is different for everyone) or if I was looking for something different. Downside is that there are so many diffe...Read more
