unfortunately this one didn't work for me. the rose was too much for me and gave me a headache. the over all blend itself went a bit sour on me. so sad
-
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.

Sharp, dry earthy musk. There is a slight sweetness there that's keeping it from going too overboard on the sharpness of the fragrance - something juicy/floral (Plumeria??) Very unique!
-
I love this! I got this for Christmas from my Mom (thanks Momma!). It reminded me immediately of the marshmallow in marshmallow poof, but softer, sweeter. The tea plays in a little bit to keep the marshmallow from going *too* foody, and I smell a "fresh" note....must be the cotton? Very beautifully blended, and I can't wait to see how it ages!
-
Wow, this is really beautiful. True, sweet, fuzzy peach, softened with a gorgeous, sexy musk, and a warmness (ho wood perhaps?). Very pretty!
-
Cherry, but not strong...sweet with some type of incense. Interesting!
-
I'm gonna be honest...I have no idea what the hell this is. LOL. There is a smokey sweetness to it, a cake accord maybe? Just weird!
-
I agree with my fellow posters above. Sweet, warm hazelnuts!

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! -
Oh....this is snugglelicious! Soft honey'd musk, vanilla and sugar plums, oh my! No rose that I can smell. At first the honey'd vanilla musk was the top note, but sugar plum comes out to play at the end.
Got "Doodad" and "Bauble" for imps in a cute little velvet stocking...haven't sniffed the imps yet as of this review, though.
-
WOW, this is so bright and fresh. The amber mixes so smoothly with the verbena...it's very hard to explain but it's a really beautiful scent.
-
I get: Sultry honey, incense (this may be the sandalwood), sweet orange, hints of amber...and a touch of spice. Reminds me of a nature store that used to be at our local mall. Pretty, but not sure this is a keeper.
-
Holy shit. Love, Love, LOVE! Gorgeous, sexy, shiny, sensuous, sweet. Give this a try!! It kinda reminds me of a more herbal version of ....Black Opal? Maybe? I dont know, but man, this scent is awesome.

Meh. This scent absolutely despises me. It turned into a smoky caramel on me..not my thing. Up for swappy poo!

Peppery and powdery sweet soft rose with a bit of jasmine. A nice nostalgic scent...not sure if it's a keeper though. We'll see!
-
Amazing! Gorgeous fruity amaretto musk...ginger came out with a bang at first, but quickly scurries away! Warm and sexy!
-
OMFG. Love, love love. When I first sniffed this, I immediately thought of Snow White. This is basically a softer version of snow white with powdery vanilla rose note. Amazing.
-
Luscious thick red jelly that's toned down a bit with the wine....drowning out the sweetness a little, but very yummy indeed!
-
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!
-
Buttery sweet eggnog with a soft coffee note. It's not spicy at all either. Not overpowering - I do wish this was stronger, actually! I wanna drink this!
-
MMmmm.....flakey, buttery and sweet. I agree that it almost smells like cherry pie, but the apricot comes into play after the dry down. Very nice!
-
Wow. This is beautiful! Very PURPLE! I'm getting a sweet, candy like plum from this perfume. It's not very floral on me, just sweet and fruity with a touch of incense/musk. Gorgeous!!
-
When I first applied this, I smelled earth, cupcakey goodness, and not chocolate, but cocoa. Cupcakes and cocoa - yes. I like it. But....earth? No. NOOOOO! Go away!!
And after about 5 minutes, thats exactly what happened - earth went by by, and I was left with sweet cupcakes with chocolate frosting. I love it!

I really really like this scent! I get the pom, sweet plum, and a touch of vanilla. The sandalwood comes out a bit later, but overall, I'd categorize this scent as a very sweet, candy like floral!
