  1. So after trying this on and not know exactly what was in it- I would've guess Clove and Roses. Now that I know it is 3 roses and cinnamon, it makes sense. This has that sort of brightness that you would smell with Sybaris. I guess thats why I thought this had clove in it. The cinnamon is very strong at first, but the roses bring out the Harlot in this after about a half an hour. The throw is decent, smells wonderful. I think I will keep the imp to see if a big bottle should be on order!


  2. If I didnt know what the ingredients listed were, I'd have to guess Lavender, booze, vetivert and a tiny bit of leather. I was a bit surprised to see that there was no booze listed as an ingredient. This is a very Masculine scent on me. Its reminds me of a darker version of Vicomte de Valmonte. I really like the Vicomte but do not care too much for old scratch, which when I look at the ingredients I really SHOULD love this! (I may need to reevaluate my favorite notes... again!) But then again, sometimes you never know how they will blend till you wear it! On a scale of 1-5 I'd give this a 3. Not unwearable, but just not something I'd wear with the other choices I have. (did that make sense? I hope so)


  3. #18 of 300

    I'm in love, This is a beautiful perfume! The picture on the bottle is stunning. This reminds me of sweet sugared anisette(without so much anise). It does smell like absinthe, but this seems to last so much longer with the vanilla holding all up. I've gotten a few complements and people asking what it is. Apparently it smells like Vanilla musk most to others who get a whiff of it off me. It is light, but has good throw. I find myself applying again during the day about midday. Its really beautiful, perfect for any season, its warm, but its also cool. Its is very comforting, I even went to sleep with it on and I slept very well. It has that *perfume* scent, but you can really get the vanilla absinthe in it as well as the hours go by. I wanted to add that this smells incredible with a tiny bit of Lick It thrown in. Super yummy vanilla musk sex. Just Beautfiul and really hard to put into words. Just wonderful!

     

    Its up at my top ten!


  4. This smells bright, almost sunny to me. Its hard for me to pull out any other scent than the Orange and heliotrope. After A while I smell the red musk, this is beautiful. As it dries down, it evokes the images of the sun going down, of the twilight ~just before it gets really dark. I'm not a big fan of scents with Orange in them, otherwise I think this is a very enjoyable scent, but for me the orange makes it too fruity.


  5. Oh Beautiful Cardamom!! This is absolutley wonderful! Imagine Bengal without that pepper smell, and throw in some cardamom and leather. It really is that good. Now don't get me wrong, at first I wasnt too sure about this, it was on the border of smelling like band-aid so I can see some people not liking this. BUT on me it is all about leather and spice. Just beautiful and definately gets 5/5 for scent and throw. A top ten favorite scent!


  6. I have been deamed *Nice* by the Lab and I had the feeling back when I ordered that I would Get Mitzvah. This is Almost like Eggnog 04' but without the rum smell. This is usually the time of year when I make brittle and fudge at my sister in laws house. This brings to mind the making of the brittle which is hot butter, and toasted sugar. Mitzvah is all that hot buttery carmelized in the kitchen baking frenzy for me. This one lasts alot better than Eggnog 04' did and its very yummy!


  7. MMM this is very herbal, with plenty of lavender and some musk or somthing slightly animalistic. Its not heavy, but the musk adds some depth. I'd have to say that every time I put this on, something dramatic happens. What I mean by that is ~ its the feeling of the party just beginning. Theres that moment before it all comes together. You are anticipating and waiting for that phone call or that knock on thedoor and EVERY SINGLE TIME I put this on it HAPPENS. Its not always immediate, but it always takes place. So when I put this on, maybe depending on the stars, my mood, or whatever my project at the time is, this really helps get the ball rolling so to speak. This blend is truly WONDERFUL the closest scent I can relate this one too would be Buck Moon with Lavender. A definate keeper and I feel truly blessed to have tried this one.

    Out of a scale of 1-5 I give it a 5 based on results and a 5 for scent.

    Get your hands on some!!!


  8. A subtle love and money combination blend. Tends to invoke the luxurious, pleasurable aspects of romance and prosperity.


    Right away I smell sweet, sweet lemons. I was hoping for a creamy scent but this isnt bad. It is invigorating to wear and makes me want to dance a bit ~ I did :P This is a very happy lively scent that reminds me of honeyed lemonade, not at all sour but completely honeyed and very chilled. I'm thinking this oil is for bringing prosperity from the name. I'll have to get back to ya that but it really does make you feel very good. I am very grateful to have tried this TAL and send my thanks to the person who so generously sent it to me!

    I'd have to add that this really works. I've been getting alot of praise from my coworkers and very big goodies from my lover :D ( that can mean so many things...)

  9. This is Christmas in a bottle. 100% Real Xmas scent to me. Its got a bit of sweet pinion resin or something in it maybe this is a frankincense? It's incensey but not overpowering, Its not too much pine (is it pine at all or a resin?), not too much smoke, its got a hint of sweet candy in it. Midnight Mass is just BEAUTIFUL, it lasts a good amount of time. This will be my scent for the season. I may just have to buy another bottle of this! I give it 5 out of 5 stars, it is damn near perfect!! Definately at my top 10!

     

    It actually made me *feel* like it was Xmas time, not just a heavy shopping season!


  10. This is a beautiful blend, it is almost spicey, but I'm not sure where this comes from on me. There is that amber, but its not too heavy on the amber, the tonka/vanilla seems to even it out nicely. It has excellent throw and everyone around me seems to be sniffing at the air when I walk by. Oh! the looks on their faces! At least I know they like it! Beautiful blend, it seems to evolve very much into something better as the hours go by. At first it was a tough amber, now its coming together, at least on me.

    I'd give this 4 out of 5 stars because I'm not sure if it is truly A scent I would wear alot. Though I can see the lovelyness :P in it and it could just change my mind. Great throw, not too overpowering, sweet and a bit spicey. It is great for the winter because it evokes a warmth around you, as you may be out and about on a chilly day.


  11. I got my order last night and went to bed wearing this. IT IS SO YUMMY! I want to say its my favorite (I'll get back to ya on that one) but I havent tried the other pumpkin patch smells yet. It starts off as this buttery pumkin nut and then it just cozies up with the cocoa and really makes me want to not only wear this but it gives me some creative ideas for my next hot chocolate! I love it. Nothing in this gets too overpowering but it lasts and lasts. Just make sure you have a soft pillow or blanky (or lover ) to curl up with this because it really is perfect for those nights when its cold out and your warm in. MMM

     

     

    This is my favorite of the patch, its so warm and sweet. Love it!! :P


  12. I'll have to agree with the folks who say this smells like CHai tea. Its is absolutley beautiful! Its like a honey'd cream sweet vanilla chai with all the spices that make it good! Its ginger and cinnamon crisp at first and then it warms up on your skin into a sweet and spicey cup of chai! This is perfect for fall and winter, it warms you up very nice! Glad I have a 10 ml of this it is a work of art!


  13. A veritable miracle, I tell you! A scent that soothes the spirit and stimulates both the libido and the mind: tobacco, balsam, ginger, elemi and rosewood, with a touch of opium to fuddle your senses.


    Mmm Medicine show. I get vanilla and frankincense with some clove though it looks like none of those are in this! It smells similiar to Lushs Arabian Bright Hair stuff. A winner in my book!

  14. Black Cat brings to mind blooming Datura flowers. Theres an occasional waft of Anise, but it only shows its face during the first stage while wearing this oil. It does make me in a cheery mood and I feel playful. Its definatly something to keep around for when times are stressed and you just need that little pick me up.


  15. MMm 13~ I never woulda thought I'd like you this much! On me it smells of Strawberry and chocolate cake with some powdered sugar sprinkled on top. After a while in 90 degree weather it begins to turn smokey while having that sweetness play in the backround. It is a very foody, fruity, smokey blend on me which really has been agreeing with my skin chemistry! :P


  16. Ok this is weird, I didnt look at the description at all, I just put this one on. I double checked the imp just to make sure I wasnt trying on something else. Yup its Phantom. WHat I get is lemongrass, myrrh, mint and something lightly floral. I really like this. Its very pleasing but I could've sworn there was something minty in this! Maybe my nose is out of whack, its just what I'm smelling. This is a beautiful scent, wonderful for summer A new favorite!


  17. I'm not sure if anyone has mentioned this yet since I havent read all the reviews, but this is GingerBread Poppet and 3 Witches combined. ABSOLUTELY fucking gorgeous. I put some on last night and fell in love. I took a chance and decided to mix it into a spray and it works great at scenting my hair, and body. I really do hope this is brought back because it is a masterpeice. I get crisp ginger, pepper, clove, vanilla, and cinnamon. :P


  18. :P My gods this is a beautiful scent. Not only does it smell wonderful, but it is very comforting. I was freaking out this morning over my banks "issues" and my hand went for Tulscha. I can smell and feel the mint first, its very cooling, and then the spice of the ginger mingles a bit on my wrist with cooling cucumber. I've forgotten how much I love the smell of cucumber. Its like fresh picked, fresh cut cucumber. Makes me wonder how a cucumber/ginger/mint salad would make me feel right now :D The only sad part is I only have one 5ml bottle and I can see myself wearing this alot this summer.

  19. Mmm a bouquet of wildflowers after a midday walk around the wetlands of California. Its sunny, reminds me of Poppys and sunshine. True to its name, its floral but not overpowering, a soft and strong bouquet. Lasts for a few hours and isnt at all overpowering.


  20. mmm this is my favorite so far!! Its sweet tunisian jasmine/ylang ylang and I'm not sure what else. It is devine, has a bit of throw and I love the sweetness, it almost makes me think there is a touch of lotus in it!

    :P


  21. I was lucky enough to get some of this to sample before I decide to go ahead and order a bottle. This is lavender with something like ylang ylang, and I'd go so far as to say a different jasmine than I am used to. Theres prob bergamot in this and something with a lemony scent in it. Its not like a lemon pledge lemon, its very slight, it just sort of gives it that crisp air feel to it. Very clean and cozy, I put this on my 5 year old in hopes of getting him to be quiet! It helps, but he is 5, and I don't think he understands the beauty of silence just yet. As a perfume I can't say it lasts a long time, but for aromatherapudic purposes I think its wonderful. I'm glad I got to try some!! :P


  22. mmm right away I get smell chocolate and caramel. Theres a burnt dirty kinda smell to it too which is not unpleasant. Maybe some candied apple, very interesting. This really does bring to mind a carnival, sticky sweet and dirty at the same time!

    Long lasting too. good stuff! :P
