This is strikingly similar to Moon of Small Spirits on me wrist!

(Snowbunny is a far sweeter/bubbly pine to me)

Hell's Belle strongly reminds me of drifting through a Lush store!

gwak! ::snuffles wrist:: this is so spot on for old school lush shop!

the nostalgia makes me giddy....must go lie down.....

Foggy, fawn label art-looks quiet and soft.

Lots of hopes on this one, perhaps a good fall into winter transition scent. Last time I fell over for musk, so here goes-

in the bottle- mmm, most certainly a warm soft musk . A creamy musk perhaps? No dominant leafy/woodsy smell- but I could envision dry leaves a bit.

wet- Quite a comforting musk, which is perhaps fur-yes? Warmth to cuddle into.The message whispers it's time for hibernation, settle down into a nest of dry leaves.(the forest scent wraps around the musk cozily. I can see why this is so popular- there aren't any strong opinions in this scent. I searched for pickles, but in vain. I'm a pickler 'meself, and was quite curious to see if it would be a special spice I could pick out...Yes, this seems like it would survive close quarters in an elevator with perfume haters!

drydown- This lasts a surprisingly long while considering the gentleness of the scent. It retains more of the fur than the forest.

verdict- I'm quite merry with scoring a bottle of this lovely stuff. It will accompany a good cuppa after a long chilly day for quite sometime- heartwarming.

whoof!

the label art pushes all the embroidery out the way and just delivers straight up skulls (with fangs!) huzzah-

preconceived notions: unsure of this one, there's been more than a hand-full of mixed reviews. I'm hoping for a musky wooden grapefuit-cross fingers-

in the bottle- woah! I see where y'all get gym socks- a super potent and complex brew., yet underlying is a very disgruntled grapefruit. And i most certainly whiff calla lily, although it really strikes my schnoz as an easter-ish lily. Definitely a White scent. a floral citrus with an underlying anchor of something unknown...perhaps a woody musk?

lets see on the wrist- mmm- i still get lily- any lushies liken it to lily savon soap? or ghost shower gel- this goes pleasantly powdery on me- while still making itself known. no woods, just a lily musk- and a harmonious citrus (not quite grapefruit, more orange-ish to me snifter). quite somber. GO POWDER GO! its as if that bottled gym sock smell has gotten a healthy dose of baby powder on its tootsies. Probably powder = musk. I feel quite taken! -

I think this one would struts its stuff as Gothic Loli personified- Oh, its dark alright- but remains playful and light all the same.

throw- whelp, I doused me neck...sooo perhaps its somewhat large at the moment, but it ain't a tame one!

over the hours- a quieter musk, sort of reminds me of a powder fresh pitt stick....which is to say, still yummy soft-

verdict- To think my order almost was not to be!
