On the skin: Fruityness! With sandalwood! Mmmmmm! On the drydown: The florals come out a bit more. Hmmmm, I wish this scent hadn't morphed on my skin...
-
On the skin: Whoa, that is honeysuckle! I am almost not sure if I can smell any of the other notes! On the drydown: Oh, I am not sure if I like this one so much anymore. The honeysuckle sweetness has faded and now I am getting something a bit bitter... black tea? It is a plasticky bitter though...
-
On the skin: Smells kind of.... sweet lemony? Farther away, it smells less lemony, but still nice and sweet. Nice!! Drydown: Pretty much the same smell from application to drydown. It is so sweet though, that I am not sure if I can handle it for long periods of time..
-
On the skin: Juniper and.....? It is a deep juniper scent. Very interesting. After a bit the juniper is joined by incense and what I have come to think of as myrrh. It becomes incensey and begins to remind me slightly of the Warrior Queen Zenobia. The dry down is pretty nice!!
-
On the skin: oooh! Nice Rose! I like this one even though I have grown to dislike many florals. It doesn't really change much from application to drydown. Nice, but I don't think I would wear something like this very often.
-
Sleek, dark, and ominous. Violet and neroli mingled with iris, white sandalwood and dark musk. On the skin: kind of herbal and bitter. With a slight hint of floral. Definitely not one of my favorites.
-
On the skin: Wow! Strawberry!! This one smells better on me than Strawberry Moon ever did. On me it smells like strawberries with a slight hint of orange. This is a perfumey strawberry though, not really candylike. Later: Starting to smell a bit floral. Most of the fruit is gone and now I primarily smell what I think must be carnation. Fades kind of quick, but I think I might want to try this one again. I quite like it actually!
-
On the skin: Very grassy.... and bitter I am afraid that I am not liking this one at all.
-
Wet: Pear and what I suspect is gardenia... Very.... strange. Also slightly herbal. Dry: Pear disappears. This scent is just very strange and is starting to lean towards the herbal side. I don't think I like this one...

LOVE LOVE LOVE!! Soooo, good! This is one of my favorite scents and I was surprised that I hadn't reviewed it yet! Thanks to a most awesome forumite, I have a 10 ml of Hod that I am hoarding.... *preciousssssssss* Just dabbed some on now to celebrate the resurrection of this scent! A spicy scent (carnations?) with a honey sweet creaminess as well. It is amazing! Just when I think the throw isn't very strong, I suddenly get a big whiff of spicy sweet yummyness. So beautiful! I may have to order at least two or three bottles (I don't have backups of any scents at the moment...) That is how wonderful this scent really is! I wish it was a GC...

Wow! I smell..... big strong sexy man.... Yet it is kind of a natural scent. It really blends well and becomes very similar to the smell of my boy's leather jacket. Not too strong on the leather, it just makes the scent deeper. I am really loving this one and am going to have to attack my SO with it sometime... soon!
-
On the skin: EEEEEeeeeeeeek! Those are some strong almonds!! Strong sweet almonds.... they are making me feel kind of nauseous... As it drys, the spices begin to bloom beautifully, but there is still that awful almond as strong as ever. Overall: This scent would probably end up being one of my favorites if it didn't have such a strong almond smell.... *sigh*
-
I kept the partial bottle of this left over from one of my decant circles around a year ago just in case I ever got around to wanting to try it.... Well, this morning I felt like something new and chose to wear this scent for the first time. Wet: Caramel!! Tasty! Dry: Incensey caramel. Still nice! It lasts hours on my skin and there is never a point when this scent turns icky... Wheeeeeeeee! It is a keeper!

Tangerine cream, benzoin, white sandalwood, white pear, tonka, and ambergris accord. Hmmmm, at first this scent was awesome! Slight hint of citrus and cream with a tiny bit of florals... But then whatever is the floral scent in this blend took over for a bit. I think I like this one, but I am going to have to test it a few more times to be certain. The boy says it rates a 6 on a scale of 10 to him... That is actually a pretty good rating though. I have yet to even get a 9 or 10 out of him...
-
Wow, this blend is different than I thought it would be! I tried it on before reading the notes and was surprised to smell some floral. Very beautiful! With the first application. I thought this scent smelled a lot like The Emathides. Then the honey began to emerge. Beautiful, tasty, and more throw than expected!
-
Blackberry tea? Wow! This smells amazing!! After a bit, I get some honey as well Now it is sweet blackberry tea! This scent is wonderful!! After the honey comes out, the scent doesn't change anymore for me. Must have bottle!!
-
At first this reminds me of Blackberry Jam and Scones, only this is more Strawberry Jam with less Scones. After awhile it is only Strawberry Jam.... This is actually quite strong. Sadly on my skin something starts to happen to the strawberry. It starts to smell... kind of rotten....
-
I tried this scent when I first joined the forums awhile ago. It immediately went into my swap pile because it smelled like buttered popcorn to me. Very strange.... I just received a new imp of it through a swap and This scent is amazing! Amber and honey with a bit of vanilla. I will have to get the SO's opinion, but I am sold. This scent stays very close to the skin.
-
Wow, this scent is so overpowering at first. I think there might be a bit of currants in here because I amp that note like no other.... It is just a strong perfumey berry for the first ten minutes or so. After a bit, the scent softens up a bit and now I am getting more of the scone smell. It becomes a pleasant light foody scent. Very nice!! -Edit- The SO agrees! Though he only likes it after the scent is on the dry down.
-
At first smell I thought "Heavenly!". Then a second later, I thought "suntan lotion!". And now..... It smells like insanely good, sweet, suntan lotion. I don't get any of the dirt note at all (thankfully!). I never really knew what heliotrope smelled like, but I think that is the only thing I can smell.....
-
This smells very... garden like. I get the pumpkin, something resembling fir, and green leaves. If it had a dirt note, I would think I was outside gardening. Pleasant, but not for me.

Lovely creamy apple cider!! Sooooo tasty! After a bit the nutmeg spices begin to take over a bit. Not a bad thing though. I am really liking this scent, but I will have to wait for the SO's position on this one to decide whether it is a keeper.

I definitely agree that there is a similarity here to I Died for Beauty (which I love). I get a lot of gardenia from this one. Dry down is all lily! It is a very pleasant floral.
-
'09 Version This is a very smokey woodsy and semi foody scent. I have to admit that I normally dislike smokey scents, but this one is AMAZING! I love the smell of this. I really need to get this one on the SO. -EDIT- Also, this one has a very strong throw.

Whoa! This smells like.... cherry fruit rollups? Wow! I haven't smelled those in years! This is just a little snippet of my childhood. So yummy!! This doesn't smell at all boozy to me. This scent doesn't last long at all on my skin. After a bit it fades mostly and I am left with a light, plasticky cherry scent. Not really for me...
