Patchouli and weed! This is like the ultimate hippie stoner blend. Sweet head shop patchouli incense and dank, strong weed. Unfortunately I could not wear this at my job so I gotta put it in the swap pile.

Ginger Cake With Quince And Orange Zest
tinyvulture replied to Silvertree's topic in Gifts with Donation or Purchase
Very nice. Was wondering how strong the ginger would be, but it’s just right, not too sharp. It’s tempered by a lovely buttery cakey sweetness and a bright hint of orange. I’m not sure what quince smells like so I can’t speak to that note. Looking at the other reviews, everyone seems relieved at how calm the ginger is and I agree. Definitely a keeper. -
INSTANT need for a bottle. Coy Mermaid screams sultry summer evening walking among lush champaca and jasmine. Glamorous and yes, coy. The sweet cream accents the natural sweetness found in the floral notes, and the patchouli brings a hippie earthiness in the background. I love jasmine and it’s balanced so perfectly with all the other notes here.

Really lovely strawberries and cream perfume with just a touch of bright sour cranberry. The strawberry is definitely more noticeable and the cranberry just accentuates the natural tartness of strawberry really nicely. It’s a nice foodie blend without being overly sweet. I’m not getting any soapiness or anything weird. I love fresas con crema and that is what this reminds me of.

Saffron! Lots of it. It adds a bittersweet, exotic spiciness to the red musk. As abejita noticed, the red musk is understated here, not overpowering as it sometimes can be for me. I am not really picking up honey. I swear there’s a coppery blood note as well. Maybe I’m just easily suggestible what with the name and all but I see other have pointed it out as well. In summary, SWEET METAL BLOOD. 🤘

Smooth polished wood and sweet incense smoke. Strong pagan-rituals-in-the-woods vibe. It feels old and mysterious.. I’m not really getting the cologne aspect that others have noticed. I’m gonna wear it to the medieval forest fair in a couple weeks

This blend reminds me of the chocolate-covered coconut cream eggs they sell at Easter. The sweetened coconut and powdery cocoa are the strongest notes and they blend beautifully. The nutty warmth of hazelnut is faintly present in the background. Definitely a foodie blend. If you love a Mounds or Almond Joy, here’s a sweet treat you’ll love.

A foodie dream, all ripe banana and fluffy pancakes, with sweet caramel and whipped cream. Strong and lasting, with a gorgeous buttery, nutty vibe that cuts the sweetness just the right amount. Love it!

The musky, spicy, sweet vanilla of Snake Oil, and then every so often a hint of buttery pastry. Really faint pastry. It’s mostly straight Snake Oil on me. Very good throw, strong scent. I’m not getting any jam or berry as some reviewers noted. Even after several minutes it’s the same – strong, sweet Snake Oil and just a hint of buttery pastry.

I get a fizzy drink, light citrus (bergamot) flavor. Sweet hints of tonka and amber start to appear. It’s cute and energetic like a butterfly! But bergamot isn’t really my jam.

A lovely spiced coffee blend, reminiscent of Cafe Mille et Une Nuits. Very heavy on the cardamom, sweetened by the vanilla, and then as for the fir needle…it's mild, I wouldn’t guess it was there if I didn’t see the notes list. But since I’m aware of it, it does pop up occasionally, adding depth. Basically this will be a perfect backup when I run out of the OLLA blend.

Like lavender candy. Sweet and soothing. I immediately ordered a bottle! There’s the cool lavender, the sparkling fruitiness of the sugar plums, and the vanilla coziness of marshmallow. This will be such a happy, cheerful yet calming addition to my army of lavender sleep blends in the triumph against insomnia!

Cafe de olla for me. Coffee with cinnamon and sugar. Not getting much in the way of creaminess or pumpkin. The cinnamon is just very spicy and strong. I would maybe try to layer it with Jack if I wanted more PSL vibe. Really I think I’ll swap it because my skin is just amping the cinnamon.

Rendezvous With Her Lover Behind the Rice Straws
tinyvulture replied to zankoku_zen's topic in Lupercalia
Clean grassy hay gives it a cologne vibe but then the rice milk and sugar are soft and sweet. Masculine and feminine coming together, balanced. Sometimes the hay note makes me sneeze but it seems all right here. A warm and fuzzy blend, stays close to the skin, like being wrapped up in a blanket -
Not what I was expecting, with my skin chemistry there’s a clean, shampoo note. I’m getting the sweet cream and honey, yeah, but it’s like combined with green and herbal notes. Gonna have to swap this one sadly.
