  1. First there is a pineapple blast, and after ten minutes the warm milk develops deliciously on the skin, mixing with the fruits notes. It stays true from the start to the end and it`s the best milk cup I`ve ever had near to a fruits basket. Amazing. Throw is minimal on me and stay is average. I completely love it, but it`s crucial to be a milk gourmand to appreciate this work of art.


  2. This is really chocolate fugde floating in a sea of melted marshmallow together with cookies :P I can`t believe how good it is, and it`s so strong that I can smell it right from the bottle! It`s the foody ultimate perfume. I put it in a cotton pad left on the computer to be warmed and it smells sooo good and strong.


  3. I`m a fan of all the notes, and I must say that this blends gets better and better with age.

    The initial blueberry-tea blast is still tart and fresh, and the drydown with ginger first and vanilla in the end it`s spettacular and incredibly long. It was so good that I couldn`t layer it with any other scent. This is fun from the start to the end.


  4. Wet is my beloved pear note mixed with florals, and when it starts to dry the plum and the pomegranate notes from Dionisia really stand out, making this blend juicy and kaleidoscopic. The floral stay in the background and don`t bother me a lot, but the rose is definitely present.

    This is a must for the fruity lovers like me!


  5. Jasmine of doom and nothing else for me. A FULL jasmine garden in a nuclear bloom, if you know what I mean. Amazingly, I hate jasmine but this put a smile in my face. I doubt I`ll be able to go out with it without layering with something else. I can`t decide if I like it or not.


  6. In the vial it`s sweet and floral and I start to be scared. On me it`s a burst of jasmine at first, and after the gorgeous vanilla note blooms, blended with the mandarin and florals. the smoke is faint but I don`t find any leather. It`s extremely complex and sophisticated, maybe a little too much for a simple foody like me.


  7. Samhain 2008

     

    At the start I was overwhelmed by the fir and the pachouli, and felt in the Vicks -Bandaid trap. But I persevered and now I can fully enjoy all the stages of this litle masterpiece :P From the deep and balsamic start through the pumpkin and the fruity bloom in the drydown. It`s the perfect pick-up scent for rainy days and I hope everyone will give another chance to this crazy multi layered baby.


  8. I love the citrus notes to death but Tweedledee is faithful to his narration, it`s too ridiculous for me. it`s like one million candies flying to a 100 km/h toward your nose screaming "We`re Sweeeeeeeet!!!!!And sour too"

    I`d love to have enough sense of humor to wear it, sadly I prefer some more zingy and fresh oil.


  9. I`d love to have another blend with the same or a similar mandarin note of Lady Lilith. Is Carnal near to it? I love the freshness of the wet stage of the blend.

     

    Kubla Khan has a prominent mandarin note and some of the same florals as Lady Lilith. Hell's Belle is musky florals with mandarin. The Great Sword of War has the same mandarin/red musk combo as Lady Llith. It's more masculine, though.

     

    If you're looking for light and fresh Hell's Belle is the closest to a light fresh Lady Lilith. If you're just looking for a bright and clean mandarin blend, 51 is excellent.

    Thanks a lot! I already have Kubla Khan and The Great Sword, and I love them! I will include your suggestions in the imminent Yule order!


  10. In the bottle it`s herbaceous lavander, but it fades fast and the floral notes go out. Soon the TKO feeling is deliciously strong and sugary, and then the Dorian lemon makes feel its presence. At the end it`s Snake Oil minus the spices. Amazing. The throw is average but it disappears a little too fast, and it doesn`t morph well in the locket for me. Never mind, I love Lilith Victoria.

     

    EDT After a little aging, the lavander mellowed completely out and now the Snake oil is going stronger and stronger, sugared by the Dorian. It`s pure heaven!!


  11. Sugary marshmallow lavander, it`s so strong I can smell it with the bottle closed, and it makes me so happy :P the lavander fades fast leaving place to a sea of sweet sugar. It`s heavenly and I guess I won`t just use it to sleep, having no problem on that side. It`s addicting like junk food.


  12. I waited days to review it cause t`s such a complex blend that it`s hard to speak simply about it. It`s strongly herbal and fades beautifully in a powdery milky shade, and it stays a lot. it`s apt for a baby for it`s creaminess mixed with soothing lavender, but it`s apt for me too when I`m tired and need to be reassured and comforted!


  13. I waited months and reapplied constantly Candy Butcher cause I wanted to love it, being chocolate my favourite note, but.. The heavy cream undertone is really heavy, it`s a plastic and clyoing note that clings to my arms and get stronger and stronger with time :P

    But the first minute is heaven, I will use my imp to enjoy that moment :D being discontinued today.


  14. This is soft and beautiful, white tea strong at the start and then carnation and a very light rose pulsing. It`s innocent and fit for days I can`t stand my usual spicy blends. If Alice is the child, Maiden is the young girl, as the name explains by itself. I bet it`s a good enabler for beginners too. Not too complex, but the tea note is always welcome!


  15. For me this blend is a soft and opaque white, like the peach, grape and pea that compose this fresh and delightful blend. There`s nothing too strong of floral that normally bore me, it`s not a bouquet, mostly a fruity and totally wearable little one.
