This one is a morpher for me, on initial application I get the cream and teak wood notes. Over time I get more of the lotus and amber. Normally for me lotus is a sweet, watery note, here it is not watery but still very sweet. It dried down to being a creamy, pink scent with a hint of powderiness from the amber. I think it shares some similarities to Triumphant vulva from a few years ago. I was hoping that the teak would hang around a bit longer but this is still a lovely scent and I can see why people love it.

Dark Chocolate, Vanilla Absolute, Black Pepper, and Bulgarian Rose
becca_s replied to Jenjin's topic in Lupercalia
This is a gorgeous dark chocolate and rose scent on me, with a hint of pepper to give it some complexity. I'm not getting alot of vanilla, but my guess is that its melting into the chocolate note. The chocolate is not the sweet, milky kind, this is definitely a dark chocolate. I agree that this is a classy and romantic scent.- 2 replies

I don't normally go for scents with dry and dusty in the description but I had read some positive reviews of Coyote so wanted to try it. This does start out quite cologney but it dries down to be a sweet, grassy scent mixed with soft fur. It dries to be more of a skin hugging scent. It's not the dry, dusty scent I imagined. It's more furry and warm.

I received Haunted as a frimp and I think I may have found a new GC love. I get a sweet, clean amber with a hint of black musk. For some reason I expected this to be quite sharp but it is softer and sweeter than I was expecting.

This a creamy, cookie/baked scent on me with hints of something berryish which must be the cloud berry. I had to Google what fattigman is and it's a deep fried cookie. This one is a creamy gourmand. As someone who loves milky and creamy notes, I am loving the clotted multikrem (dessert with whipped cream, sugar and cloudberry) note here. The fattigman fits the description and are just like crumbs sprinkled over whipped cream. I find the cloudberry hard to describe but it's somewhere between smelling like a berry while also having a hint of citrus. I'm really loving this one ❤ Both of the scents I've tried from the New years release have been wins for me.

On my skin, Traum is all about the lavender. I've brought a few lavender blends recently and to me this is the most lavender forward of them all. After it has settled into my skin I get a hint of frankincense and cacao but they are background notes to the lavender. This strikes me as a scent I'd wear on quiet evenings when perhaps I was feeling stressed. Its quite a calming scent. On me it has alot of throw and staying power

I feel like this scent is really atmospheric. It reminds me of going to vintage bookstores and opening up old leather bound books. The leather smells very realistic and is probably the strongest note on me, followed by the aged paper and lamp oil. To me this is a pretty realistic smell of vintage books and leather chairs. The lavender and rose water are completely drowned out by the other notes here on me. For people who enjoy leather or bookish scents, this might be one to try.

On my skin I get rich toffee and bourbon vanilla layered over white rose petals. My experience is a bit different to other reviewers because I can smell the rose and I get alot of bourbon vanilla as well. The toffee is also definitely present here. The honey dust is just a light dusting. I would describe this as being a decadent, gourmand with a white rose background.

On me this starts our with a strong lavender note. It's a similar lavender to TKO. Over time, as it settles into my skin I can smell the coconut cream and pie crust. The coconut cream to me is more cream and not very much coconut. The pie crust is quite subtle and I think adds a hint of vanilla. This settles into a beautiful, creamy lavender.

I find this to be a sweeter, gourmand Dorian. The sufganiyot really brings out the vanilla and sugar notes from the original blend. It is still distinctly Dorian on me, but it is sweeter and I think it's softer as other reviewers have mentioned. I don't get the fried aspect in this blend either. It's really quite lovely. Eta - I've been wearing this regularly over the last few days and it's quickly becoming a favorite of mine. It's my favorite out of the Yules.

I get a combination of the gingerbread spices and a sweet, milky note. I can pick out the nutmeg, cinnamon and ginger and freshly baked gingerbread. The milk is sweet and frothy and kind of reminds me of a chai latte with a large piece of gingerbread on the side. I can pick out both the gingerbread and the milk but I think the gingerbread and the spices might be slightly more prominent on me here.

Wow, this is gorgeous. It does start out as a sweet, purple floral scent and it dries down to the most dreamy vanilla, mallow and Orris scent with just a hint of lavender and osmathus. This one I may need a back up bottle of.

This is a sweet, creamy amber scent on me. At first I get a hint of plastic but once it settles into my skin it becomes more of a warm, milky scent that is sweet but not in a super sweet, candy way. I agree with other reviewers that the amber here leans towards the impression of smelling quite clean. As in a clean skin scent, not laundry, but almost as though you've just stepped out of the bath. This scent does having a golden, glowing quality to it, kind of a your skin but better scent. It's one of those scents that I'd just want to keep on wearing.

In the bottle this smells strongly of Jasmine, and when applied to my skin I also find this to be more jasmine forward, with the rose as background note. The jasmine isn't high pitched and is toned down by the cream and vanilla. After about an hour or so into I can smell more of the vanilla and amber peaking out behind the jasmine. I find it prettiest after some wear time, when the jasmine has settled. This is a really vintage scent, it reminds me alot of the vintage perfumes my great Aunt used to wear when I was a kid.

On me this is a soft floral with a base of gingerbread. The gingerbread spices themselves are not very strong on me. It's only when I put my nose to my wrist that I can tell that this is gingerbread. From further away it smells more like non distinct cookies. The floral notes are very pretty, I can pick out the calla lily, iris and omanthus and at times the ivy. The gingerbread adds sweetness but on me it's not overly gingery. The florals dominate the gingerbread for me.
