Wait a moment... why have I never tried this one?!

 

On the skin: This is fantastic! An amazing blend of vanilla and amber! Wow! I even let my SO sniff it and he just said "Mmmmm, Smells good!" I get a hint of lovely sweet pea floral as time goes on, but thankfully it never completely dominates. A bottle of this will be in my next order!!

This scent is very interesting!

On the skin: Hello, pomegranate! This is a lovely, slightly sweet pomegranate with a hint of mossiness and cologne. I want my guy to smell like this!

After a bit, the cologne and pomegranate back off a bit and I can definitely smell a lovely, spicy almost earthy greenness.

I feel this would be perfect on the right man, but isn't quite right for my girly self! It is blended amazingly though!

On the skin: Hello, grapefruit! I get loads of grapefruit with some sweetness that I think is the orange blossom and grape. Very grapefruity and effervescent! Reminds me of a grapefruit fizzy drink!

 

After a bit this becomes less effervescent and turns quite soapy. *sigh* Not for me!

On the skin: Sweet, smokey leather. Very very smokey. Eep! Not for me at all. The smokey part smells like bad cigarettes, and my nose just can't take it.

On the skin: This is sweet! Is that fruity vanilla? There is something else here that is a bit higher pitched. Some type of wood?

 

I don't think this is for me, but it is a very pleasant scent!

On the skin: Hmmm, this one has quite good throw! Something that smells like tree. (cedar? Not quite sure which) There is also something kinda sweet in here. Wow, I want to attack my SO with this one! This is fantastic!

On the skin: Definitely very cologney. With a hint of.... something kinda dark. This would actually smell pretty nice on the right man!

Not what I was expecting at all!

 

On the skin: Green chocolates! It's like... gardening and chocolate combined! I'd say this is definitely more of a milk chocolate than anything else. Creamy chocolate and green plants!

On the skin: A lovely floral. I don't smell much else. It actually turns quite soapy on my skin. Definitely not for me.

On the skin: A green, wood scent. Hmmm, quite smelly. It turns a bit ashy as time goes on.

 

Not for me at all. I don't think I could see myself layering this one with anything either.

On the skin: That is some yummy apricot! Almost peachy. Sweet with a slight tartness. There is a deepness to this one that must be from the clove, but I don't actually smell much of the clove itself.

 

This is very yummy!! I don't see myself wearing this day to day, but I love the smell of it!

On the skin: I think I like this one even better than Hygeia. A smooth cinnamon with a blend of the other notes. Soooooo nice! This cinnamon is so friendly! It reminds me a lot of the cinnamon in Pinched with Four Aces. In fact, this blend reminds me a little of Pinched, but I find it to smell so much better! I think I may have to snag another bottle before they go away!

On the skin: Beautiful rose with a hint of coconut. Oh, no... there is something here that is turning a weird tart/sour/powder. It's not the rose... but whatever it is, it has completely taken over. A greenish tart/sour powder. It smells like what I would think the stalk of a weird plant would smell like after it has been freshly cut. (Can't think of a particular plant to compare...) Oh, maybe it is the scent of freshly cut rose stalks. Not the flower itself. With a bit of powder.

 

*sigh* Not at all what I was hoping for. I think I am going to keep this one around though. The label art is too awesome for me to give up on liking this one!

On the skin: Red musk and slightly earthy (patchouli?). Oooooh, this is nice. It turns a bit earthier after a bit. Definitely not something I could ever wear to work, but I am definitely liking this one! Turns a little sweeter after a bit.

 

Oh, I wish I could find a bottle of this one!

On the skin: A soft cinnamon wood. Huh. Not something I would normally expect from a blend with cinnamon! This is actually a very smooth, slightly sweet blend.

 

Hmmmm, something on my skin is turning even sweeter. Tobacco? Not very strong at all on me though. I really have to lean in to sniff it. Can't smell any cinnamon anymore. Or woods. Just a sweetness.

 

Quite nice smelling, but it just sticks too close to my skin for my taste.

On the skin: A sweet honey musky ambery scent with florals. This is fantastic! A golden floral. Hmmmmmm, the floral is a bit headachy though. Very very lovely still.

 

The headachiness fades a little as time goes on. Still a lovely scent that I really like, but I don't think I would wear it often at all. I think this decant will be staying with me though!

Just got this one in the mail, so things might change a bit!

 

On the skin: I swear I have smelled something like this before. Musky, deep, slightly sweet, perfumey berry. LOVE! You know, I think this reminds me of Mme Moriarty only with berry instead of plum. Not as strong though.... Very nice and I think this one will be staying around for a bit!

On the skin: Light, musky, almost clean/green scent. Very interesting! This one sicks very close to my skin. I find this quite lovely. Definitely not what I was expecting. This smells like a freshly showered body. I think I will need to try this one again!

 

-ETA-

 

Tried this one again recently!

 

This one is quite musky with a slight hint of dry sandalwood and vanilla.

 

I think it is a keeper!

Hello musky lemon! This is very much lemon on me. Thankfully it doesn't seem to turn too artificial on me. After a bit I can smell a bit of the herbs. It is becoming more of a musky lemon with some herbs mixed in. Could be an interesting drink.

 

Interesting scent that is perfect for summertime.

On the skin: Hmmmm, I really can't smell much of anything. Weird! After a bit I get a bit of herbal honey. Interesting and kind of fuzzy feeling. This is very much honey on me.

 

I am afraid this scent is not for me. It never really blooms on me. Ah, well...

I'd say this is definitely a Banshee Beat proto.

 

On the skin: This actually smells a bit like Banshee Beat to me. I never got much vanilla in the released version and it ended up being purely dirt on my skin, but here I can smell the vanilla immediately. A dirty vanilla! Wow, this is fantastic! This scent isn't as strong as Banshee Beat, but I actually like it better this way. More vanilla than the released version, but an overall lighter scent.

 

I love it!

On the skin: Oooooh! It smells.... root beerish to me. A very sweet root beer though. The root beer impression fades pretty quickly though. Now it smells... pretty amazing! Sweet vanilla plus red musk with a hint of pomegranate. Maybe a slight feel of caramel? A surprisingly airy/light scent. Not overpowering at all!

 

This is a very sexy almost foody scent. I think I am in love and now feel totally justified in swapping for three bottles! Reminds me slightly of Sin, only Sin is a bit stronger and a bit less sweet!

On the skin: Mmmmmm! A honey sweet musk. Very lovely! I could instantly see this being a perfect blend for wearing to work where stronger scents would be frowned upon. A lovely, sweet musky scent that wafts nicely and isn't heavy or strong. An "aura" perfume!

 

I don't think I would ever want to wear this scent alone, but I think this is definitely a great layering scent as long as it is paired with something that won't completely drown it out!

On the skin: Definitely purple and herby. It gets less herbal as time goes on. Smells like a lovely soap.

 

Not for me!

On the skin: Hmmmm, I can't smell much. It's slightly sweet, but other than that I really can't smell anything. I think what I smell is floral sweet with a slight musky airiness. Still can't smell too much. I got this imp straight from the lab, so it should be the right scent.... I'll have to edit this post if I get a different imp.
