I tried this scent at the December Will Call, and picked up a bottle because it was SO gorgeous! A combination of light, cool snow, sweet tea, and berries, with a soft, undertone of florals. It's cool, refreshing, and soothing! Delightfully enchanting!
-
In decant: Peppermints coated with sugar! Creamier than a candy cane, though... It mostly reminds me of those after-dinner mints that melt in your mouth. YUM!
Wet on skin: Just like in the decant! Sweet, minty, and creamy! SUPER yummy!
Dry on skin: No change in scent at all (yay!), but seems to have a cooling effect that fades to gradual warming. It's like a delicious remedy! I'm glad I picked-up a bottle at Will Call back in December!!!

In the decant: Cool, creamy, soft, and sweet, white florals. Tantalizingly elegant!
Wet on skin: Creamier than before, florals more of an undertone.
Dry on skin: It seems to sour a bit... But it doesn't ruin the throw of the scent for me completely - it's still pleasantly soft, sweet, and white, and only seems sour if I'm sniffing my skin directly. This scent lasts a LONG time, too!
Overall, I prefer the scent in its pure form inside of the bottle/decant (I purchased a bottle) than to the concoction it develops into on my skin, but it's nice either way. This would be a perfect locket scent!

In the imp: VERY green! Balsam fir and cedar prominent. It smells as if I’m walking through a forest! On me: Pleasant, light scent. Clove definitely prominent, with hints of sage. It’s nice!
-
In imp: VERY citrusy, but not overwhelming. On me: Still citrusy. Mostly smell lemon verbena. I smell like a lemon drop candy! It’s nice!
-
In the imp: Light floras. Oleander most prominent. On me: The same as in the imp. It’s pleasant!
-
In the imp: PERFECT blend of each fruit! Smells like a great cocktail! I wanna drink! On me: Almost the same as in the imp, but lighter. I’m not familiar with persimmon or myrrh, so I’m not sure which of the two is more prominent. I just know I detect an unfamiliar note most strongly that soured my delicious fruity drink!
-
In the imp: Green florals… A familiar scent to be sure! On me: The same as in the imp. It’s pleasantly refreshing! Very nice! I’ll treasure my imp!
-
In imp: Mossy apples… Mmmmm apples! On me: Apples are the undercurrent of the other notes. Poppy juice is most prominent. It’s nice!
-
In the imp: PUMPKIN! I LOVE ME SOME PUMPKIN!!! On me: Smells better in the imp than on me. Interesting scent… Lingers lightly, but fades quickly.
-
In the imp: Berries with a hint of roses. On me: Exactly the same as in the imp. Pumpkin comes out to play on the dry down. It’s a deeper, seductress-type of scent. Definitely musky. Gets better with time! I was most excited for this pumpkin of the patch, so I'm glad it worked out so well!
-
VERY DECADENT in the imp! Vanilla, Honey, and Cherry clearly noted. On me: Smells better in the imp than on me… White Sage, Cedar, Pine, and Pumpkin all present on the dry-down.
-
VERY sweet, but light – not overwhelming at all! REALLY LIKE!
-
In the imp: I mostly smell sugary, strawberry goo. It’s yummy!
On me: Same as in the imp! Yay! Gotta have a bottle!
-
In the imp: WOAH, LEATHER!
On me: Leather still REALLY prominent. Would be a nice scent for a male.
-
In the imp: I’m walking through an apple orchard while sipping hot cider! Yum!
On me: Apples galore! It’s so delicious! I MUST have a bottle!!!
-
In the imp: Just as described – white roses and honeyed cream! It’s sultry!
On me: Same as in the imp. It’s sweet, decadent blend! I may purchase a bottle! It’s lovely!
-
In the decant: This smells more as if I just cracked open a carton of a REALLY sweet eggnog rather than as if I’m baking sugar cookies… Curious!
Wet on skin: Still smells like a glass of ‘nog!
Dry on skin: NOW it smells like my oven has a batch of sugar cookies bakin’ away inside of it! Some very buttery sugar cookies, at that! I prefer Butter Rum Cookie.
-
In the decant: Strong florals…
Wet on skin: Dusty florals… How weird!
Dry on skin: Darker, muskier... Hmmm… Not sweet enough for me.
-
In the decant: Very green – slightly bitter. Almost smells like cleaning products…
Wet on skin: More floral – violet prominent.
Dry on skin: Light, lingering violet florals. Strange how it changed so drastically, but in a good way!
-
-
In the decant: Honey and cream – smells VERY similar to Katrina Van Tassel
Wet on skin: Mmmmm… Peaches!
Dry on skin: Peaches and florals… Mostly sugary peaches. It’s super girlie and sweet! LIKE! Must have a bottle!

In the decant: A fun, girlie scent. This is probably what the color pink would smell like if colors had scent!
Wet on skin: The scent was MUCH sweeter in the bottle. It’s a bit bitter now…
Dry on skin: No change… Now if I had to give this scent a color, I’d tack it with sage green. Such a disappointment that it couldn’t be pink on my skin!!!
White Chocolate, Marshmallow, and Coconut

- In decant: A perfect blend of each note! It smells like a gourment smore! YUM!
- Wet on skin: Coconut moves to the foreground, but it’s very subtle. It’s wrapped with decadent white chocolate!
- Dry on skin: Same as when wet.
It reminds me of having a chocolate candy that has just enough coconut within to leave me wanting more! It’s super creamy and delicious!
