Wet: Soap. Specifically, the solution for blowing bubbles and a little sweet.
Dry: Still sweet and soapy. This disappeared from my skin in less than two hours.

This one is not for my skin.
I smell like someone poured sour oil with a whiff of rose in the classroom pencil sharpener.

Kelp and salt out of the gate. I need a beach house that smells like this when I grow up. The patchouli works with the sandalwood on me and doesn't give the dirt/funk smell.
-
This smells like straight jasmine on me and I'm absolutely here for it. Oddly sensual.
-
I think my imp may be aged. Pretty sure I got it as a frimp.
Wet: I smell like a girl! Whatever that was before the flowers came in just reeked of "female."
Just dry: Lemon and mint zipped in and out as quickly as they arrived.
Dry dry: Flowers, tea, and wood are upfront but leather is lurking as a most alluring supporting player. It's not in your face SMELL ME I'M SEXAY leather. This is more that smell might be my bookshelf....or it might be something a bit more hands on but I'm classy and will never tell.
I. Like. This.

Wet: Bitter citrus party, table of 1.
Dry: Trix or some unmarked hard yellow/orange candy from a crystal dish I've had at my grandmother's house as a kid. L wrist is all citrus pith. R wrist is more mellow and sweet.
-
I put this on before I read the notes. I was expecting it to have a heavier chemical smell so I was pleasantly surprised.
Wet: Lemon.
Kind of dry: lemon and tea with this vaguely minty/herbal green action. I'm guessing it's the aloe rather than its juicy insides. This lasted longest. By the time it was dry dry, it was gone entirely.
-
This broke my heart a little upfront: the florals that came out first disappeared so fast! Flowers gave way to smoke, which in turn became the heaviest thing I think I've ever smelled.
And then all of it was gone.
It's weirdly sexy but I'd liken it to being something you were told was "too adult" for you to wear as a tween.
-
Note: mine says it's a prototype
Wet: Amber with florals
Dry: This isn't particularly tropical, sweet, or light on me. I'd say it's still primarily amber with orchid, lily, and geranium.
-
Wet: pencil shavings
Dry: Spicy wood. Heavy with a faint edge of something antisceptic (think Pine Sol or eucalyptus) before it dries down in to a softer version of itself with a whiff of gentle incense.
-
This was all dark chocolate and red fruit on me. I wouldn't call it wine but it could potentially be a grape. There was definitely a sweet alcohol note (probably the rum).
-
Patchouli and chocolate?
The vaguely chocolate note goes away, so I'm left with patchouli and musk.
I don't think this is a keeper for me.
-
My skin does not like this right now.
Wet: Red Nyquil. -blinks-
Dry: ..pineapple and strawberry and smoke? Mostly smoke now. The bursting fruity bits are like the dust in a Juicy Fruit wrapper now.
I don't think it likes me. I'll have to try again in a week.
-
Wet: All sweet but not playing well with my skin.
Dry: Pride with sugar. What I think might be the orange blossom sneaking in at the end. A bit soapy on the left wrist but not so on the right.
-
I was afraid of to try this one because of all the reviews about how manly other wearers found this.
Wet: Leather. All leather. Nothing but the leather.
Dry: Gardenia and...JASMINE WITH THE STEEL CHAIR. All my leather is gone in the ether..
Dry dry: ...and so is everything else after about an hour save the faintest ghost of flowers. I think this part hurt my feelings.
-
Wet: Very clove forward but not acrid or intense clove cigarette smell.
Dry: This is warm woody carnations, vanilla, and soft clove. It's a lovely smell. The spice is very complimentary.
-
Wet: Tangy metal.
Dry: Sweet metal? It's not the resin. It's almost foody--cherry coke? Soda syrup of some kind but not crazy sugary.
-
Wet: smokey chili. Warm on the skin.
Dry: smokey caramel.
There's something oddly attractive about this.
-
Wet: Freshly cracked jar of Vick's Vaporub. The force is with this one.
Dry: This calms down in to a wearable aquatic. No sweet or flowery notes that I can pick out. It might be well suited for a masculine wearer.
-
Wet: Juicy blueberry. I hate blueberry but I'd give this blueberry a try.
Dry: Blueberry and sweet cream with a hint of plastic toy on the end.
-
Wet: Pencil shavings
Dry: Smoky wood. I have a firefighter friend to whom I can hand this off. He might enjoy it.
-
Wet: I'm touched by how dead on the dead leaf note is: this is truly slightly wet dead orange and red leaves.
Dry: I don't think the tea note in this had a chance on my skin. The leaf notes are gone and the spice notes are not only literally warming the skin but surprisingly manly. I could wear this but I think it would be far more intriguing on a guy.
-
Wet: Lime. Nothing else to smell here. Move along.
Dry: There's that licorice-y Absinthe smell. Lime is lurking.
Dry dry: This has taken a turn for Comet. Don't get me wrong, Comet reminds me of mom cleaning house when I was little but it doesn't make me feel sexy.
-
Wet: AMBER and cloves. Hrm.
Dry: There was rose clearly for a hot minute but this has given way to flowery soap on my skin. As others have said, it's not unpleasant but this one may not be for me.

Wet: The prostitute's perfume note is very big and upfront on my skin. I have this as an imp and used the wand for a single swipe on my wrist. This came out like I'd walked through a perfume cloud someone left several minutes before.
Semi Dry: The salt and aquatics arrive.
Dry: Spicy wood. This layer of the smell is hanging tough after a couple hours post application.
