    Umbra

    This reminds me of two things! Firstly it reminds me of Brimstone but without all the smoke and secondly it reminds me of Lush's METTR or Waylander as it's called now. It is a gritty smell that is quite masculine, I do like it but its not me - I don't know what to do with my frimp now as I do like the smell (Hmm I might invest in some scent free shower gel and see how that works!)

    Tombstone

    A celebration of one of the first commercially produced perfumes of America's Old West. A rugged, warm blend of vanilla, balsam and sassafras layered over Virginia cedar. I am in love with this blend, the vanilla is just amazing its a rugged vanilla that I thought was going to be really girly and feminine but actually it has balls! I'm not sure what cedar is like so I imagine that it is the cedar that makes it less girly. Absolutely divine, I want to be slathered in this!

    Tintagel

    This one is quite nice, I wasn't sure about it because wine scents usually don't work on me. The Dragon's blood is the dominant note on me and I get this gorgeous waft of mulled wine every now and then. I think this is quite a christmassy scent! Very nice!

    The Raven

    The lab description is perfect for this blend - It is very dark and sleek. It is like a sweet musk on me (It really reminds me of those sweets - parma violets!) I think that it is a really unusual and quite stunning scent. I really like this one

    Thanatos

    I hadn't read any reviews or descriptions before I tried this so it was a suprise when I tried it. It is really really nice, I was pleasantly suprised! It is like a woodsy floral incensy blend that is really stunning on my skin and it lasts too! I think I've found another imp I want a bottle of!! The description makes it seem quite morose and decrepid even but this is such a gorgeous scent that to me really doesn't match the description of it...wait a min I can see the description when I sniff the imp but on my skin it morphs to a really happy and joyous scent - ace!

    Venice

    I didn't like this in the bottle or on for a good few hours, I can smell the lavender in it now with a hint of orange with it and I really like it, unfortunately it has really faded on my skin so I can barely smell it. Never mind!

    Salomé

    Meh - I didn't like this one - unfortunately it was too almondy on me, I don't think I like almonds it was too sickly and overpowering. It really reminded me of being back in egypt too for some reason - which is a nice smell but I just can't take it on my skin. Oh well.

    Beatrice

    I adore this blend - I got it on my scarf and I keep getting whiffs of this amazing scent. I have always shied away from the floral blends for some reason but the more I try the more I like. This is predominantly rose on me ( I think!) and I couldn't even begin to pick out any of the other notes in it. I got this of another forumite and wish I had bought several bottles of it as I like it so much!!

    Love in the Asylum

    A song of love and madness: two roses, tolu balsam and ambergris with vanilla, labdanum, tobacco leaf, carnation and tonka. This was a very sweet and light rose on me, It reminded me a little of turkish delight - I am really really loving rose blends at the moment and this one is gorgeous. The only downer is that the throw was not very strong and the scent didn't last that long on me which is a shame.

    High John the Conqueror

    I also got a grape smell when I put this on, apart from that I couldn't make any other notes from it. It smells slightly aquatic but not too much which is a good thing as aquatic blends and me just don't mix (which is strange seeing as I am a pisces!). This is loverly - I Like it very much!

    Rome

    This blend smelled very clean and white on me, the rose eventually comes through after the clean fresh smell (cypress and juniper?) goes. It is a blend I think I would wear when I want to feel calm, it is a very graceful scent!

    Maiden

    I still have this thing in my head that tells me that I don't like rose blends, it wont go away. This is another blend with rose in that is just divine, It is a spicy rose with the tea wafting past every now and then. I think this is a very clean and soft fragrance, its very feminine on me!

    Jezebel

    The mix of honey and orange in this is divine, I usually hate honey smells (although I do like 'O'!) - they tend to smell like, well, cat pee on me! This is gorgoeus though, the honey and orange is a perfect mix and it is really sweet and sexy. Yum!

    Brisingamen

    I like, no love amber in scents and I wasn't disappointed by this one! It's a warm amber scent that is very comforting. I'm not sure if I like it enough to get a big bottle though, I might have to test this one again!

    Maenad

    I liked this when I first put it on, the strawberry was really strong and yummy and I could smell the orange blossom behind it. It still smells the same now (a good 8 hours later!) but I think it is too sickly sweet - It didn't morph into anything else on my skin. Maybe I'd wear this again in the future but I wouldn't be too bothered if I didn't

    Lolita

    I hated this in the imp - It had that Green smell that I can't stand but once I had put it on and left it for 5 mins its gorgeous. Its such a fun and sweet (but without being foody/sickly) scent. It lasted quite long as well which is good! In fact I only reapplied it at lunch because I wanted to smell it more because its so yummy!

    Languor

    This is really nice, I wasn't sure if I'd like it from the notes that are in it but actually its really nice. It was a heavy dreamy scent when I first put it on, the tuberose comes through really strongly and the whole scent is very bright turqoise blue to me - by blue I don't mean its aquatic, its more like a hot summers day that is perfect for sitting there and day dreaming. It then morphed into something that is really familier to me but I can't for the life of me think what. I think that this could be a grower actually, the more I smell it the more I like it, the more I think it fits my personality quite well!

    Harlot

    My brain keeps on telling me I don't like rose blends but with every rose frimp I get I like it more and more (I even ordered rose red so I hope I like it now!!) This is a spicy rose, the cinnamon isn't too sharp I think the rose mellows it out and likewise the cinnamon makes the rose less...flowery I guess. I was going to give this to my mum to see if she wanted to try it but I think I will keep it for myself instead!!!

    Glasgow

    This is quite nice but it just isn't me at all. I don' t know how to describe it - on me it is a floral, the heather is the most powerful note with the blackberry just peeking out every now and then.

    French Love

    This was a tangy spicy scent on me - The dragons blood didn't really come out that much (which is a shame as I love it) so I might have to test this one again. There was a sultryness about it that is quite sexy!

    Dragon's Musk

    Dominant, passionate, devastating. Dragon’s blood and five deep musks. Where has this blend been all my life!! I can't believe I waited so long to try it! I always thought that Dragon's milk was the sexy sultry dragon's blood scent - I was so wrong - this is really sultry and sexy (I should have known really - I love the musks and I love Dragon's blood so I couldn't go wrong could I?) Damn...thats another Bottle added to the wishlist!

    Dragon's Hide

    Flame-kissed, warm, smooth, and highly protective. Dragon’s blood, leather and a hint of smoke. I'm stumped with the adjectives on this one (Adjectives are describing words right?? I've prob gotten them mixed up with verbs or something knowing me!!) - This scent is really familier to me - It's got the sweetness of Dragon's blood but there is something (undescribable) in there as well - If it is the leather I am smelling then bring on the leather blends - I've never tried any before!! It is protective in a rugged kind of way. Mmm I like it.

    Dragon's Heart

    This is a really Red scent!! It is quite warm and cosy to me and it feels quite protective - if that makes any sense!! It is quite fruity/musky as well - I think this is one I would wear when I am feeling alone and down in the dumps.

    Dragon's Eye

    This is a really soft and light florally Dragon's blood scent, it is very calm and peaceful/serene. I liked this one as the Dragon's blood wasn't as strong as in the other blends I have tried (Don't get me wrong - I love Dragon's blood usually but I liked this because it was different).

    Dee

    When I first put this on I got a spicy warm floral coming from it and thought that it was really nice, then it morphed into this manly scent (which was still gorgeous!) that was all strong and warm and sexy. I can't wait to try this on my boyf!! I think this is another possible 5ml!
