    Bordello

    in bottle: smells like candy on skin: this smells like creamy candy BBS but with a faint watermelon like watery smell to it aswell. it's quite nice but i'm not sure it warrants a bigger bottle.

    Laudanum

    in bottle: spicy and woody on skin: something about this scent reminds me of my grandma's house maybe it's the nutmeg. it's very nice but i think the spice is just a little bit too sharp for my liking. I'll have to conduct further tests on this one but i don't think i'll be getting a bottle. This scent might sit better on a male or someone with better skin chemistry than me.

    Black Opal

    in the bottle: vanilla and something else. on skin:Musk it's vanilla musk well this wasn't the firey black opal i thought it would be but i love it. it's more of white opal or even a pearl. it's got such a delicate sweetly divine scent this is a skin scent for me and definitely a big bottle required!

    Bess

    in the bottle: grape and mint are fighting for supremacy on my skin: i was a little hesitant to try this because i'm not a big fan of rose but this is amazing the grape and mint stop the rose from turning into evil old lady powder. This has a sweetness and a bite at first but then it settles done to become a beautiful floral fit for a queen!

    Belle Époque

    in bottle: sweet and a little bit floral on skin: this smells a little bit like cheshire cat to me sweet mandarin vanilla and opium are the dominant notes. I like this but probably not enough to get a big bottle.

    Aureus

    in bottle: patchouli! not at all what i was expecting! on skin: this lightens up a bit on my skin and turns into sundew and patchouli this is not the glorious light scent i was looking for more like a sliver of light viewed through a dirty window. Unfortunately the patchouli takes quite a sharp note out of the sundew smell and amplifies it till it smells like my dad's old bomb of a car. Sadly this just isn't for me

    Anne Bonny

    in bottle: Mmmm this smells just like my favourite capricorn incense sticks when i was in high school. on skin: this takes on much more of the earthy patchouli and sandalwood which blends together to make the ultimate earthy spicy scent. i think that despite the name this is a very gender nuetral scent and anyone who loves those really gorgeous oriental earthy scents you get from top notch incense will love this. For me this is a big bottle scent!

    Cheshire Cat

    Grapefruit, red currant, dark musk, Roman chamomile, delphinium, and lavender. Well after discovering that i amp musk i wasn't as keen on trying this as when i ordered it but I was pleasantly surprised, it played nicely with all the other notes and blended in perfectly and didn't turn rancidly sweet like musk usually does on me. When I put this on it reminded me of an oil in a love potion kit i got as a teenager, the particular oil was unrequitted love, which was my favourite out of the whole set. Whilst I quite like this scent I was not at all prepared for my boyfriends reaction! He jumped me and then afterwards he said "Man that perfume just added a whole other dimension", it was really full on! I'm going to have to keep an imp of this on hand at all times.

    Ogun

    I thought this sounded so cool but on me it turns into a really strong soap smell.

    The Jersey Devil

    This one smells a bit like Tweed(the perfume) to me, I have to say I don't really like it it's a bit to sharp for my liking.

    Oya

    This one has a slight Jasmine or Honeysuckle scent to it to me. I got this in a swap and it's not something I would have picked myself but I really like this one. Definitely a 5ml next time.

    Pumpkin IV (2007)

    I got this in a swap on a whim but I actually love this one. It's smells a bit cloying when wet but when it dries down it becomes this gorgeous sweet sage sensation that is soo me!

    Aeaea

    I quite like this one but it does seem to wear off pretty quickly much reapplying needed.
