Limited

LIMITED (too small to separate them into categories yet X3)   I don't read reviews to 'match' while writing. I might one day…just to make sure I don't say I smell berries when It's really Egyptian musk But for now… I deal you deal? ;_;   Will also be condensing these reviews and leaving big ones to link off the main categories. So i can fit more in! ... just a little bit addicted ;o; 2004

Chemistry

Layering: So i usually have titles that all fit together under one roof.. this is all messy and crap but ill work on it later ;D   28.11.07 Knave of hearts + Rose Red 2007 Oh god. I love this. I used to think the rose component in Knave of hearts was far too subtle. After the drydown of this combination, these two scents work ridiculously well together. It's... a very warm, luxurious blackberry pie conversing with rich, juicy rose petals- green with no green! The rose still takes a backseat as a secondary scent- but the intensity in comparison to the original is almost like it glorified itself and is bleeding it all out. yum T_T     22.11.07 Whip + Lady Macbeth+ Gingerbread Poppet 2007 hah... hah.. hah. This now smells like the aged Snake Oil i've been covetting since i got it. God. I can't really smell the dusty roase scent from Whip on the drydown.. but i get a lot of the berry and spice.. and Lady Macbeth definitely has more character. Well that was a quick fix X3 Study time ._.     22.11.07 Machu Picchu + Blood Mary I applied the green tropical, Machu Picchu first and layered a smaller quantity of Bloody Mary on top of that. I get an effervescent punch of coconut and berry wine. The citrus is a very dominant note and i can pick up the scent of a green banana peel playing with said coconut. The warmth of the Bloody Mary really melts underneath- almost like a creamy bath melt. Ugh..It's a very lutterly, sparkling and tropical.   20.11.07 Spellbound + Bastet On the hand i applied both Spellbound and Bastet(first) on, i get a really strong Musky incense which is Spellbound .. and no sign of the cherry amber scent. I rubbed both my wrists together and my right hand has now burst with this harmony of rose incense amber mix x.x . It's kind of powdery, but it's soft, smokey, and slightly spicey and sweet. Baby powder, cherry incense, amber. Oh how i love amber notes. X3   I need to send a parcel today. I wanted to note this down > >; because i don't intend to try it on again too soon. But my essay. And my week exam! and two more assignments. gah.

Notes

Grading System: A+= 5 A+= 4.5 A= 4 A-= 3.5 B+= 3 B= 2.5 B-= 2 C+= 1.5 C= 1 C-= 0.5 F= 0     The smells i do not like / don't work well .__. (and older news). The Attrocious Attic | Blood | Dragon Tears | Fallen | Gluttony | Hetairae | Port-au Prince | Siren | Sugar Skull 2007 | Sudha Segara |     (not actively selling yet)   Quick Note Reviews: (first impressions from each blend, put on the waitlist for reviewing due to r/l stuffs.)   Blood- nice in the bottle. Turns much too sharp and heavy on me. Gluttony ... turned into an market of dried fruit and nuts. Hetairae- same effect as Gluttony Fallen- not my scent. Forbidden Fruit- gentle, same synthetic smell as most perfumes but loses completely with my chemistry. Jezebel- same effect as Hetairae ;-; Port-au Prince - medicinal.. like the brown liquid i put on for cuts and minor wounds. Takes too long to smell like chocolate. Siren- smells like chocolate and wood.. unusually alluring...in the bottle. Sudha Segara- where's the honey ;___; Danube: citrus sweet floral Machu Picchuu: Green tropical Belladonna: green ferny Midnight: soapy cologne Vinland: ginger amber Euphrosyne: Sugary lemon air freshener Madrid: bubblegum menthol , Traditional chinese herbal cough syrup Sportive Sun: Amber plastic wood note Ahathoor: lavender, light herbal green Glasgow: tea rose and sugar cubes Maenad: where the fuck is my strawberry?

Spellbound: ambera, honey and thick, heady roses- but not prominent. Rose cross: sugary incense and roses Blood rose: sugared blood and roses Dragon's tears: aquatic.. dragon's blood? Urania: jasmic floral .. softer florals- white and yellow. Velvet: hazelnut chocolate that turns into innards of moldy, worn track shoes on me. Ewww. Veil: lavender+ aquatic air. Wicked: spicy sweet medicinal blend. Background faint herbal. Laudanum: sweaty sneakers with those anti-stink products sprayed/left on them. Delight: old, musty and tangy. Shango: melon and dirt.

Queen Mab

Imp #13: Queen Mab   "Warrior, Trickster and Goddess of Magic and Poets, she is one of the Tuatha De Danaan and the Queen of the Faeries. A very complex scent, both shadowy and fierce: black orchid, sandalwood, night-blooming jasmine, osmanthus, Somalian rose, and Chinese musk."   Note: Beginning of cycle. Imp from littleone101701.   In the bottle: I recognize the jasmine, blended with some other floral notes and deepened by the musk & sandalwood. It is hard to pick out individual scents.   On me: Jasmine like crazy. Gives it a perfumy feel. Not much throw.   1 hour+ later: soft jasmine
