BPAL: DIA DE LOS MUERTOS
DIA DE LOS MUERTOS 2007: (Company Says: This is a Mexican paean to La Huesuda: dry, crackling leaves, the incense smoke of altars honoring Death and the Dead, funeral bouquets, the candies, chocolates, foods and tobacco of the ofrenda, amaranth, sweet cactus blossom and desert cereus.


In the bottle, it is all flowers and incense. On first application it smells like pretty generic perfume. Give it a little time and the food scents come out, candy, something that smells a little like cake (offering food? Amaranth mixing with candies?), and a hint of chocolate. It gets sweeter, but doesn't lose the tinge of incense which twines with the tobacco under the stronger scents. The florals back way off. It is complex and sweet and dry, shifting dominant notes over time, making it extremely hard to pin down.
