  1. Wowsa, this is strong when first applied. You only need a LIL BIT! I'm getting tangy blackberry, a slight milk note, and some sort of musk/ozone/snow? It's very nice. After wearing it for a few hours, it dries down on me to a sweet, soft blackberry. Kinda sugary even. Maybe this is the beeswax. Yes, I suck at reviews, but man, this scent is definitely complex! Very pretty indeed.


  2. LEFT HIS NURSE WHILE IN A CROWD
    There was a Boy whose name was Jim;
    His Friends were very good to him.
    They gave him Tea, and Cakes, and Jam,
    And slices of delicious Ham,
    And Chocolate with pink inside
    And little Tricycles to ride,
    And read him Stories through and through,
    And even took him to the Zoo-
    But there it was the dreadful Fate
    Befell him, which I now relate.
    You know-or at least you ought to know,
    For I have often told you so-
    That Children never are allowed
    To leave their Nurses in a Crowd;
    Now this was Jim's especial Foible,
    He ran away when he was able,
    And on this inauspicious day
    He slipped his hand and ran away!
    He hadn't gone a yard when-Bang!
    With open Jaws, a lion sprang,
    And hungrily began to eat
    The Boy: beginning at his feet.
    Now, just imagine how it feels
    When first your toes and then your heels,
    And then by gradual degrees,
    Your shins and ankles, calves and knees,
    Are slowly eaten, bit by bit.
    No wonder Jim detested it!
    No wonder that he shouted "Hi!"
    The Honest Keeper heard his cry,
    Though very fat he almost ran
    To help the little gentleman.
    "Ponto!" he ordered as he came
    (For Ponto was the Lion's name),
    "Ponto!" he cried, with angry Frown,
    "Let go, Sir! Down, Sir! Put it down!"
    The Lion made a sudden stop,
    He let the Dainty Morsel drop,
    And slunk reluctant to his Cage,
    Snarling with Disappointed Rage.
    But when he bent him over Jim,
    The Honest Keeper's Eyes were dim.
    The Lion having reached his Head,
    The Miserable Boy was dead!
    When Nurse informed his Parents, they
    Were more Concerned than I can say:-
    His Mother, as She dried her eyes,
    Said, "Well-it gives me no surprise,
    He would not do as he was told!"
    His Father, who was self-controlled,
    Bade all the children round attend
    To James's miserable end,
    And always keep a-hold of Nurse
    For fear of finding something worse.

    Hot tea with cream, berry cream-filled milk chocolates, and moist slices of cake against a backdrop of alarming leonine golden musk.


    Oh dear. I'm first? Eek. Okay, have mercy. This smells nothing like I thought it would. The tea, berries and chocolate are the first three notes I initially get. Chocolate goes bye bye fast. There's also some kind of a "fried dough" note...I'm not sure if this is the cake note that's tricking my nose, but it's some kind of a fried pastry note. You may or may not pick up on this...not sure. I'm also not sure what "leonine" musk is, but it may be the one note that keeps this from being as foody as it sounds. It's kinda "off". Again, nothing like I expected, but I'm going to set this aside and let it age and see what happens! Also got Tcotchkie and Trinket as my extra imp goodies in a cute velvet stocking along with some cute little toys! (Have not tested these two imps yet.)

    ETA: I've been wearing this the whole evening...and I am still sniffing it...I'm getting a light cream note with a touch of tea & berry. There could be hope! :)

  3. Mmmmm....sweet (but not overly so), sugar ladened hazelnuts drizzled with honey. Not getting any carrot or hay. Very foody but not too sweet despite the sugar n' honey. :)


  4. I suck at reviews. I really do. In the bottle this smells dark and mysterious..yet sweet. On the dry down it smells like a sugary melange of sweet fruits, and a good hint of coconut in there. Kinda....summery?? Very interesting and I love the bottle art!
