In Vial: Astringent, medicinal

Wet: Dried leaves and vicks vapor rub. Wow this is really medicinal.

Dry: This has changed significantly. Still smells like dried plants, herbs and weeds. Reminds me of a funeral bouquet has died and dried. Very true to name.

In Vial: Pine-sol and roses.

Wet: Wow! really strong. Roses are powerful in this.

Dry: Strong Rose.

In Vial: Smells weird, like mint chocolate.

Wet: Sharp. I don't even know what this smells like. I think it's floral but not typical

Dry: Now it has mellowed to something recognizable. Definitely roses.

In Vial: Sweet and juicy

Wet: Cherries and something else but mostly cherry.

Dry: Cherries have fainted but still perceptible. Floral is the strongest.

ADDED Jan. 11:

in vial: sickly sweet with almonds

wet: same sickly sweet smell with more almond oil. Reminds me of the way home made cherry pie smells but without the foody aspect. Almost like a cherry pie perfume. Morphing now to something that smells more like perfume. Not so sickly sweet. I cannot distinguish the individual notes, or could possibly be I don't realize what I am smelling. I know the almond has faded.

dry: I"m not sure how to describe the drydown result. It reminds me of perfume on a hot summer day after you have been sweating. This one is not for me.

The Coil, awesome mint!

Mr. Ibis smells like a ray of sunshine to me

In Vial: woods

Wet: Outdoor, trees and wood.

Dry: This has gotten stronger and is astringent. Smells like fresh cut wood.

In Vial: Fresh and clean with a hint of lemon

Wet: Mmm.sweet. Smells like lemon sugar cookies. Very sweet and syrupy.

Dry: A nice light lemon sugar. Not foody anymore.

In Vial: Strong and offensive

Wet:This is awful. I will see if I can describe this- bandaids, medicine, chocolate and stained wood. I am really surprised this is what I am getting considering the notes. Doesn't make sense to me.

Dry: This has gotten lighter but to me still smells terrible.

In Vial: strong floral

Wet: very flowery. Reminds me of my grandmother. She loved flowers.

Dry: Smells like lemonade and flowers. This reminds me of drinking lemonade on the front porch smelling flowers in the yard.

In Vial: light and fresh with a hint of lemon

Wet: Subtle mint in the background and something that smells like pine-sol.

Dry: This has gotten a little soapy and fresher. The toilet cleaner has dissapated. Nice light and fresh.

Vial: Sweet and complex

Wet: Smells like fresh fruits with a hint of wood. The wood is getting stronger.

Dry: Smells sweet and fruity but aged or cooked fruit, not fresh. The subtle hint of peach is in the background.

In Vial: Soapy floral

Wet: Oh this is nice. I don't usually like florals. This is getting a bit powdery. Now it is baby powder. It has gone downhill fast.

Dry: Yeah this is mostly a powdery floral with baby powder. On me this is headache inducing.

In Vial: Stronger than I expected.

Wet: A bit perfumey. Wow this is even stronger.

Dry: Has the essence of an authoritative, commanding woman. Fits perfectly with it's namesake.

In vial: vodka

Wet: Mmm. Almond and black cherry. Really getting cherry coke from this one. This smells exactly like cola lip smackers from when I was in grade school.

Dry: This has morphed into a spicey cola.

In Vial: Wonderful Vanilla

Wet: Now the ginger is coming on strong

In Vial: Blueberry and ginger

Wet: This is fizzy. Smells like a light, fruity carbonated beverage.

Dry: On me it is all gin.

In vial: grapefruit and lime

Wet: wow this is good! I can smell the other notes blended but grapefruit and lime are the strongest.

Dry: This doesn't end well.

In Vial: wow! buttery rum

Wet: light and buttery, getting a hint of pineapple now. Spice is coming on strong.

Dry: This fades quickly to a ginger spiced scent.

In Vial:Crisp clean floral

Wet: Smells like soap

Dry: No longer smells like soap but more like a light yellow floral.

In Vial: Rose

Wet: Roses

Dry: All I get is roses all the way.

In Vial: Strong wood and patchouli

Wet: So strong like stained wood and the earthy dark scent of patchouli.

In Vial: Sweet foody plus vinegar - strange

Wet: Sweet sugared nuts. This is Christmas foody smelling to me. More clearly now this is smelling like roasted pecans. A small hint of carmel sweetness and lemon, but more along the lines of lemongrass rather than a citrus lemon scent.
