    Snake Charmer

    Sensual, sibilant, sexual and hypnotic: Arabian musk and exotic spices slinking through Egyptian amber, enticing vanilla, and a serpentine blend of black plum, labdanum, ambrette, benzoin and black coconut. eh. It wasn't as good as I was hoping. =/ I'm very so-so on this one. It reminds me of Dragon's Milk but less yummy.

    Beaver Moon 2005

    I thought I'd died and gone to heaven. O_O YUM.

    Screeching Parrot

    I adore this. Very tropical and lovely and makes me thirsty and tipsy just from sniffing it. love it.

    The Star

    sadly, not what I was hoping for. It dries down a little better, but for a long while it's just lemon lime cleaning fluid. Gives me a headache. Oh well.

    A Blade of Grass

    goes right up there with Lucy Westenra and The Phoenix for my all-time favorite LE's. it smells soapy on me, though this is definitely not a bad thing in my book, and it's a lovely grassy/citrusy scent with something smokey. I got it today and it totally fit the mood-- a coolish, wet late autumn day with crows calling from the dying trees. Might actually slather this today to set the mood. I'm in love, very much so. Hope this one comes back eventually.

    Verdandi

    my first impression of this was that it was very much like grand guglio... and I still think that, but it's a bit earthier on dry-down.

    Regan

    really lovely! a soft spiced vanilla... maybe a fruity snake oil candle? It's really heavenly.

    Yggdrasil

    what the heck... freezer burn? ewwww..... glad this one is for the boyfriend and not me... It's kind of a woody freezer burn, and it dries down to something a bit better, but... not my scent!

    Kubla Khan

    ohhh, a lovely citrus incense on me.... totally not what I expected. I swear I smell citrus in it, and I get some tea too. Very complex and nice and different.

    Zephyr

    much too perfumey and musky... bleh. Not a bad scent, I was just craving more lemon/citrus, I guess.

    Samhain

    baby wipes, a guy's sweaty shirt, damp pine needles, and spices somewhere in the background. I like it, yet... hmmm... very different. It fits Samhain for sure, though I don't know if I like it as a perfume, per se.

    Lady MacBeth

    JUICY!!! makes me crave juice. Oh yeah... I love it! so berrylicious.

    Alice

    ohhh, quite lovely!!! A sweet, sugar-spun floral blend. Soft, like baby powder, though not powdery... reminds me of those bathproof cabbage patch babies. I could actually get away with wearing this floral, for sure.

    Goblin

    sweet coconutty patchouli.... just like the description, lol. I'm just not a patchouli person... I'll try this on my friend.

    Grand Guignol

    Just smell the apricots... what does brandy smell like? Lol. Maybe I'm just immune to alcohol scents.

    Brown Jenkin

    coconutty incense... Very lovely! hard to describe perfectly. Almost like sunscreen but less yucky. Also less tropically...

    Black Phoenix

    wow. too complex to describe. My first impression was that of the antimicrobial soap/lotion in doctor's office... but it's also a very dark fruit, slightly astringent. I can see how it would smell like Coca Cola, licorice, or cleaning products. Hm.

    Jazz Funeral

    hm, interesting!!! Exactly as described.... I can smell the dirt, flowers, and rum. Not my signature scent by any means, but a lovely, complex scent.

    Violet Ray

    oh, it's quite lovely on my skin. In the bottle it really wasn't my thing, and the floral notes still give me a massive headache, but I can tell it's quite lovely.

    Brimstone

    burning something, or a poppy seed bagel on my hand. hmm.

    The Sea Foams Blood

    OMG. Need a bottle of this. It's lovely, aquatic, and has that blood note. Dear God I love this scent!!!! Very cool, nice for evoking a cool beach day. It's more ladylike than the Phoenix, but not girly. I would definitely wear this by the seaside, maybe layered with Black Pearl.

    Hunger

    It's like blood kiss and brides of dracula mixed beautifully... I swear I smell cloves in it! And sandalwood.

    The Magi

    hmm... soapy soda. Not too bad, just not completely my thing. Very clean, kind of candley...

    Lines Written Among the Euganean Hills

    awww, the rose dominates in the ramen noodle powder sort of way. From a distance I can tell it's nice, but up close it's like "ewww... ramen..."

    Butter Rum Cookie

    smells lovely in the bottle, weird and tangy and not very cookielike on my skin. I might let my brother try this one. If I had to pick a gender for it I'd say it's male.
