I wasn't sure what to expect out of this scent. I'm not really a fan of honey and vanilla as they tend to be sweet on me.

 

when it was wet, it was a light vanilla/honey scent with amber peeking out

 

when it was dry i absolutely loved it. everything was balanced just right and i kept getting wiffs of amber and vanilla and some honey.

 

i think this is a bottle purchase and i would love to see how it ages.

i know this has lemon in it, however on me they never made an appearance and i only smelled baby powder after dry down. i beleive it would have been the white florals/musk/sandalwood combo.

i really liked this one in the imp and was excited to try it.

it's super strong when wet and i couldn't wait for dry down to see how it morphed. i had to wash it off. it reminded me of when i walk into bath & body works - the overwhelming fruity scent. i know it supposed to smell like pomegrante, but it was just berries all over my wrist and gave me a headache.

ADDED Nov. 22:

this was too strong and reminded me of something from bath & body works - instant headache

wet: nice and balanced some woods popping out

dry: headache...the florals are kicking in

 

as much as i love roses, i just can't do tea roses, they tend to be sickly sweet on my skin. mixed with the lilac and ouch.

i was hoping this would turn more resin and incense like. unfortunately, i got a headache and none of the mrryh or patchouli kicked in. i think i got a lot of musk and orris. i tried to wait for minutes to pass for dry down and nothing changed. i still had a headache and it was still not kicking in any of the notes i like.

this went on interesting and slightly floral, then dry down all that happened was dragon's blood. i couldn't smell the sandalwood and still after 30 minutes, all i had was fading dragon's blood.

absolutely love this scent, the patchouli amount is spot on, the sandalwood is heavenly and the frankincense - yumm!

 

i couldn't stop smelling my wrist.

i absolutely love cloves. this one has cloves and patchouli. i can smell some of the mahogany wood & black musk, but the main note is clove! i wish the patchouli would pop out more, but a girl can't be picky.

 

*swoon*

 

this is a definite bottle

this scent has roses and coffee and vanilla and i was hoping it would work with my chemistry, but alas it turned into smelling like floral mush, i believe its the jasmine and roses together that create this floral band-aid smell on me.

this was was light and turned into a floral massacre.

i wish i could wear florals without having it give me a headache and turn to mush.

i liked it more upon first application, then it dried down and now it smells like a bar and cheap cologne.

 

this one might just be used in the locket or with laundry.

absolutely love this! very delicate and delicious. i think it would be a great summer scent since it's light the cherry smell doesn't take over. second time around, it smells like soap and anise.

strange, i put this on because i love church incense. all i smelled was candle wax.

after reading some reviews in another forum topic else where, i thought this might be more incense like than lemons. it doesn't quite compare to arcana, this sorta takes a down turn on me.

 

will not purchase bottle.

this one surprised me a bit. i liked it when it was wet, then dry had me puzzled. the vetvier didn't pop out, it turned to a very light lemon floral scent.

 

i doubt i will purchase a bottle.

smelled the patchouli when wet, slightly smell the sandalwood, can't smell the patchouli at all once dry down hits, all that lingers is the cardamom and its strong

 

then after a while i start to itch, must be allergic to something in this. thats terrible as i really liked the scent. i think i might be able to wear it in a locket, but i'm not sure. i would like the patchouli to dominate more than the cardamom.

 

possible pass.

i tried this one from reading all the reviews and was hoping to love this one.

 

unfortunately, it smells like this muscle rub i sued to put on my grandmama when i was a kid.

 

this one is a definite pass.

i tried this on a whim as a sniffie and there was just enough in there for a test.

 

i fell in love. this one smells more like the incese smell i love than the pit and the pendulum

 

i didn't really smell the cocoa, all i got was the dragon's blood resin, spice, and musk...thankfully the vetvier didn't over power the mix.

 

must find a bottle.

i've tried this out with somnus and it helps get a deeper more restful sleep. i'm not sure how it is alone.

 

i'm not sure if i would purchase a bottle though.

finally, something that helps me stay aslepp the entire night. the best part is using this after a night at dj'ing and having issues getting to sleep because my brain doesn't shut off and with somnus i get to sleep within 20 minutes.

 

i find that using this with oneiroi helps me get a deeper sleep.

 

thank you!

 

i've ordered a bottle already and gone through my first imp of this.

it actually smells like ginger. i used it in combination with somnus and had some pretty interesting dreams. not going to get a bottle, just going to use up the imp. it seems to have helped me sleep a bit better, but i get the same effect as just by using somnus alone. i thought it might help with a deeper sleep with the whole REM thing...

it's an interesting scent - haven't smelled anything like it before. it has upon first application an almost medicinal smell...then the musk peeks through and i assume the labdnaum is giving it a woodsy warm spice scent. it's almost cinnamon like actually.

 

not sure if i would order a bottle, but its interesting

absolutely love this so does everyone else who sniffs me! a dark amber/musky scent

 

and i ordered a bottle

i adore this one. i can smell the cinnamon undertones, but mostly its the dragon's blood that pops out the most. i can barely smell the clove or black pepper

 

going to get this in bottle format

The musk, patchouli and mrryh pop out more. overall, not a bad scent and the ylang ylang isn't over powering the mix

 

a bottle might be in order.
