    Dana O'Shee

    Tried out Dana O'Shee today. In the bottle it smelled great- sweet, milky and quite nice. On me, it turned into a sweet essence-of-almond oatmeal cookie dough smell. Quite nice, really. However, I'm allergic to almonds. Hm. Thankfully, no allergic reaction- it's probably just the combination of scents. On the one hand, I like it, on the other hand, I get that weird twinge of fear each time I sniff it that goes along with "omg allergy trigger!". So... gorgeous, but I'll probably only wear it rarely.

    In the imp: beautiful. Sweet, coffee-like, with a hint of booze and a pinch of sugar. Wet: Overpoweringly sweet. It smells of nothing so much as French Vanilla coffee creamer on me- my husband says "like rotten sugar cookies." It has staying power, too- I scrubbed my wrists before going out- after just one swipe of scent shared between them- and it stayed put, only knocked it back about 50%. Drydown (since it stayed put that long): A few hours later, and it was still there. Very slightly mellowed- I can smell a bit of the oakwood note if I try really hard- but it's hard to get past the scent. It still reminds me of how the really cheap "sugar cookie" scented candles smell, with a touch of coffee creamer. Another couple of minutes of scrubbing got rid of it, though. I had such high hopes- the description sounded great, and how could you go wrong with a Lovecraft scent? But not for my skin chemistry, I suppose.
