    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!

    Moon of Small Spirits

    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!

    Lick It Like You Mean It

    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!!!

    Snow White

    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!

    Pumpkin III (2008)

    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!

    Pumpkin I (2008)

    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!

    Autumn Coolness

    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!

    To Autumn

    In imp: Mossy apples… Mmmmm apples! On me: Apples are the undercurrent of the other notes. Poppy juice is most prominent. It’s nice!

    Needle in a Haystack

    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.

    Pumpkin V (2008)

    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!

    Pumpkin IV (2008)

    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.

    Pumpkin II (2008)

    In the imp: WOAH, LEATHER! On me: Leather still REALLY prominent. Would be a nice scent for a male.

    Katrina van Tassel

    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!

    Sugar Cookie

    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.

    Nowhere in Particular

    In the decant: Strong florals… Wet on skin: Dusty florals… How weird! Dry on skin: Darker, muskier... Hmmm… Not sweet enough for me.

    There's a Certain Slant of Light

    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!

    The Gaoler's Daughter

    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!

    The Magi

    In the decant: An invigorating scent! It’s familiar, yet this is my first experience with any of these notes… Wet on skin: Same as in the bottle. Dry on skin: No change. It’s a bittersweet aroma. It lingers lightly. I wish I knew what I smell!!! It’s interesting…

    Snow Bunny

    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!!!
