BPAL Drink Me
.
I recently went over to my stash, and I re-discovered one of my early favorites: Drink Me from the Mad Tea Party collection. Reviews here.
It's GC, with a long description ending in:
I'm a big fan of sweet and foody scents. In mainstream perfumes, I like Prada Candy and Aquolina Pink Sugar. (samples from Sephora - I don't buy full size bottles of alcohol based perfumes because even when I like them, they mess with my sinuses. What are you gonna do?)
Another BPAL that I'm extremely fond of that is also sweet and foody, but more foody and less sugary, is Araw Ng Mga Patay, from Halloween 2011. It's not to hard to find it on swap/sell sites like the ones on LJ - that's where I got my partial bottle.

However, this bottle was not marked 'poison,' so Alice ventured to taste it, and finding it very nice, (it had, in fact, a sort of mixed flavour of cherry-tart, custard, pine-apple, roast turkey, toffee, and hot buttered toast,) she very soon finished it off.I get a lot of butter and toffee, along with some sweet fruits. Some people smell turkey, but if I do, I'm not aware of it. The only down side to Drink Me is that it fades quickly and doesn't have a big throw. Although the small throw is also a feature, since my housemate hates perfume. :>

I just get warm comfort foods, breads, and caramel (from the flan). I'll admit that I don't know anything about Phillipine foods, and I didn't look them up, but they sure do smell good!
A cheerful, raucous celebration of life and death: bouquets overflowing with gerbera daisies, waling waling, sampaguita, ylang ylang, hibiscus, night-blooming dama de noche, santan, and everlasting flower with piles upon piles of bibingka, ube halaya, rice muffins, champorado, purple yam cake, and turon, and plates of gooey kalabasa leche flan.
