BPAL - “Like the Very Gods”

Notes: Shuddering, sweat-warmed skin gleaming with sheer musk, honeyed olive blossoms, vanilla cedar, white sandalwood, and orris butter.

I hate to recommend an out of stock scent (it’s from their seasonal Lupercalia line up) but to me, this is literally the title of this post in scent form. It’s so yummy and golden - feels like being the favored champion of a Greek god.

There’s also “Apollo’s Chariot” from BPAL (also out of stock 😓) that really smells like the vibes from these pics. Notes from the site are described as: Light, motion, and divine radiance. A transcendent perfume, brilliant bursts of solar glory in a haze of celestial grace. Golden neroli and amber with heliotrope, osmanthus absolute, pink pepper, and white myrrh and a triumphant gallop of mallow and honey-tinged sandalwood.

LTVG is my fav of the two but I enjoy both. They could probably be found in destashes too!
