I love this...it's like there was a gooey marshmallow stuck in a flower garden or a dandelion field..it's like sweet and yet grassy, sugary but with real greenery. A good balance of the two. Very pretty and evocative of a Plastic Pink Flamingo.

This one was mostly molasses wet, which was really pretty. But on the drydown I'm getting mostly sour fruity red currant from this one. There's some slight herby smell that is a contrast to the currant. Kind of weirdly metallic.

I don't think the lab's snow notes agree with my skin. This one turned to pure soap

Mostly lily, honeysuckle, with a bit of jasmine. This reminds me a lot of Tiger Lily.

This is lovely! Spices, citrus, honey, floral, blooming headiliy on my wrist...it reminds me a lot of The Hanging Gardens, which was love.

This is mainly rose on my skin, but there are some other wet florals that balance it out a bit. Smells like a flower garden.

Whip and wood and honey is kind of a weird combination, but it's not unpleasant. It is rather reminiscent of men's cologne though.

This one is lovely. Blackberry, vanilla honey musk grounded by the green tea. If I really concentrate I can pick out the different notes but otherwise they meld together into a smooth, creamy, ethereal whole. It's really well blended, and definitely evocative of Lady Una.

this probably should go in label issues instead.

This one is kind of hard to describe..like preserved flowers or something. Kind of citrusy (might be the neroli?), with ylang ylang and a tiny tiny drop of Jasmine. The patchouli is beautiful in this blend but gradually disappears on my skin.

I was expecting the Jasmine to hate me in this blend, but what do you know. It's actually kind of gorgeous with the rose, magnolia, and underlying amber balancing it all out. It's definately floral, but not overwhelmingly so. Very elegant.

I wasn't expecting to like this, but I do. The lab's patchouli is growing on me. This really is a "bone white" scent, very woodsy and sharp and clean and dry.

Tuberose and myrrh and honey and skin musk. This is incredibly pretty, kind of like O with incense and roses.

I really, REALLY liked how this smelled in the imp, all lavendar with a touch of moss. But on my skin it turns into this horrible sour combination of carnation and amber. Pass.

This is quite pretty. Rose with a hint of lily and warm incense. Uplifting but not overpowering.

This is pretty, masculine, and woodsy, tea and leather and incense, and the tonka gives it a nice flavor. I prefer Tristan for tonka and rosewood though.

This is a warm scent, just as the description says. It's primarily amber with a bit of cinnamon flitting around the edges. It's a thick scent, reminiscent of a thick soft golden pelt of fur, yes, there is something definately feline about this, like a pair of golden amber cat eyes with black flecks in them. I'm going to keep this imp and see if the amber gets any more spectacular with age.

Sharp, powdery greenery that mellows as it dries, fresh apple blossom, and herbs. Reminds me of an apple shampoo I used to have - nice smelling but overall unremarkable.

Red jolly ranchers! This scent is candyish in a pleasant way. The Lady refuses to have any throw on my skin, though.

Exceptionally clean, citrusy ozone. It's very pretty. If you're a fan of ozone scents you'll love this one.

Hellcat is mostly sweet caramel booze and almonds to me. Foody, sinful. I don't particular like the combination, and prefer almonds combined with amber instead.

This smells like melons, fruit punch and carbonated water. It's okay, but not my thing, there's a sour note (the booze) that sets my teeth slightly on edge.

When I first put Lune Noire on I got an overwhelming floral, similar to jasmine. I was worried it was going to stay that way, but in a couple seconds the mad floral receded into a beautiful blend of musk, fruit, and florals. It's warm, inviting night air, but there's a vein of melancholy running through it. This smells..lonely. The throw is light. The overall effect reminds me quite a lot of the Unicorn. Beautiful. It's a keeper.

Wow, this is nice. I smelled the horrible White Rabbit tea of death in the imp, and was worried. But on my skin this is almost exactly like the description - slightly earthy black tea leaf (yum), a dash of sweet honey, and an overriding waft of what those asian wasabi shrimp chips smell like.

At first this is incredibly light green and fresh, bottled sunshine and dandelions. Then it starts to get slightly smokier, and the hops and hemp come out.
