    Candy Corn Coated Candy Apple

    This the quintessential fall scent for me. Wet on the skin, it starts out mostly just candied apple. But the more I sniff it as it begins to dry, I pick up the candy corn note, though it is not anything nearly as "corny" as last year's Trick Or Treat oil. Sniffing my wrist is just making me want to head out to the store and pick up some candied apples for dessert tonight.

    Ginger Skulls

    Spicy, sugary pear and ginger on me. Fades kind of fast though.

    Bogle

    I agree with the other reviews so far that this is a jumbled up scent. Everything seems to be just thrown together---and it works! The fruits are very much tempered with the vetiver, but if you don't like vetiver (I don't myself), fear not. It does not take over this scent at all. As I sniff, I can pick up almost every note, but the ones that stand out strongest on my skin are pumpkin, frankincense, and vetiver.

    Marshmallow Pumpkin

    I have to agree this one starts out VERY similar to Pumpkin Pie Bath Oil. Very spicy. As it dries though, it begins to mellow (or "mallow" if you prefer ) and I can pick up the marshmallow note. Still a little spicy but tempered with a creamy vanilla note.

    Licorice Bats

    Oh how I love Anise/Licorice blends! And this one does not disappoint. Sniffing the bottle, it's a yummy deep black licorice scent. Applied to my skin, it starts out a perfect balance of cocoa and licorice. As it dries, the cocoa fades away and I am left with a still very lovely soft licorice scent on my skin. Two thumbs up from me! :thumbsup:

    Slaugh

    Root Beer! This one is heavy with the Sassafras. It's pretty much single note on my skin, but I love it!

    What do bottles and labels look like?

    My BPTP Order with Inquisition arrived today. I love the label art for Candy Corn Coated Candy Apple.

    Mabon 2010

    For me, I get dry herbs more than anything else, particularly the sage note. I can barely smell the blackberries and no apples to speak of. I'm hoping that with age the blackberry wine and apple notes will become stronger. As it stands now, I am disappointed in how it's reacting on me. The reviews above are how I wanted it to smell on me.

    Lilith's Tea Party

    Oh my, this is lovely. I love the tea note and it is blended so perfectly with strawberry, rosewater, and cake. After it fully dries, it's more strawberries and cake than tea. I adore this blend.

    Anne Beany

    Extremely nummy! Rum and cheesecake. I definitely begin to smell the butterscotch as it begins to dry. If you like foody/dessert blends, this one is worth trying.

    Beer from the Marsh Woman's Brewery

    I'm getting a strong celery note and a fresh herbal vibe from this, but not really any beer.

    Block Buster

    Very strong cinnamon note in this one. It overpowers everything else. And, yes, I agree with the review about it having a medicinal quality to it.

    The Creeping Mist

    This is a soft, sweet floral blend on me. Orris and Lotus are the 2 notes I can pick out most distinctly.

    Ecclesiastical Excesses

    Rose, incense, and vetiver right after application. Vetiver note seems to disappear after a few minutes and I am left with this spicy rose incense. Very pretty and delicate.

    Halloween: Brooklyn

    Sharp and woody.

    Pomegranate I

    As I suspected, the Jasmine note kills everything else and all I smell is cat pee.

    Flor De Muerto

    Marigold is pretty much the only note I am getting out of this one.

    The Shadowy And The Sublime

    Rose softened & sweetened with myrrh and light mint. Very lovely.

    2010: Herby, aquatic with a dry spice note. Very Fall-like.

    Odd Portents

    Dark musk, lavender, amber, incense, and dark fruit. There is a myriad of notes bombarding my nose as I sniff my wrist. I find myself really liking this one.

    Pomegranate V

    Pomegranate, carnation, and neroli. Not getting any vetiver, pepper, or tar in this blend. Just a light fruity floral vibe.

    The Wild Swans At Coole

    Darkly aquatic & Dry leaves. Definitely reminds me of late Fall right before winter sets in.

    The Unsavory Grave-Diggers

    Boozy, woody, and just a little earthy. This is strangely working well with my skin chemistry.

    Halloween: Los Angeles

    Smoky, yet sweet fragrance. Very dry. I rather like this one.

    The Unsteady Governess

    Lots of white tea in this one, with just a dash of violet. Very clean & refreshing scent.
