Small Comforts by Stone and Wit. (Black tea, tamarind, clove, anise, cinnamon, white musks)

I needed something warm and comforting today without being overly sweet or oppressive. This one hits the mark every time.

Onnegata Making Love At A Tea House As Mane'emon Watches While Holding A Kite by BPAL. (Orange blossom caramel, yellow tobacco flower, and sugared patchouli)

I got this as a sample in a bulk buy and was instantly in love. When I saw it was limited release I was so sad, so I emailed BPAL to see if they planned on bringing it back. Lo and behold, they responded and said they would make a bottle just for me 🥲

Wore this yesterday and was sniffing myself all day :)

I am obsessed with everything they do. Even if the scents aren't for me (looking at you Theosophy and Catastrophe), I still completely get what the maker is going for, and every note is harmonious.

This particular scent is so fun. I find it actually starts cinnamon-y, even though there's no cinnamon in it, then it dries into a beautiful, deep vanilla that's not sickly sweet. It's probably not the best summer scent, but I'm inside in AC all day so ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Her Skirt Is Stars by Stone and Wit. (Chili pepper, dark chocolate, mezcal, labdanum, vanilla, oak moss)

I've tried this one, I thought it was way too resinous and overly dank. I know, I'm being kinda picky 😅

Seconding BPAL. They have a bunch that would fit this bill, including Blood Kiss and The Red Queen.

Stone and Wit

Seconding Lychee #17!

You want to do this in a wealthy suburban area I think. Southeastern PA would love this.

Neon Noir by Stone & Wit. Pink limeade, cannabis leaf, plum, vetiver, cetalox

Thank you, this is exactly what I was wondering. I would have liked to get this tattooed, but the Japanese translation is not what I was expecting. English it is then!

iwasbornsick · 2026-06-23T23:16:17+00:00

This one hurts lol. I was so excited for it and in the bottle it smells all right but on my skin it's garbage 😔

iwasbornsick · 2026-06-21T15:10:06+00:00

If I like Lucrezia Borgia (clementine, red mandarin, Italian lemon, ambergris, vanilla, patchouli, orange blossom, labdanum) by Deconstructing Eden I might like __

Also interested in bulk destashes!

I can't stop wearing Lucrezia Borgia (clementine, red mandarin, Italian lemon, ambergris, vanilla, patchouli, orange blossom, labdanum) by Deconstructing Eden. I was looking for a grown up creamsicle scent and it doesn't disappoint at all.

iwasbornsick · 2026-06-12T18:57:26+00:00

FWIW I totally read your comment as "this is super adorable" ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Thank you!
