While wet it is very very bright, white florals.  Almost airy.  As it dries I am getting lots of jasmine and some honeysuckle.  The lavender is more in the background for me and not as noticeable.  It has calmed down, softened, and is still bright florals, but not as blindingly so.  I don't wear a lot of flowery florals, but this is nice.  It makes me think of taking a walk in nice weather when everything is blooming.  Not sure I will wear it very often though.

Somehow I never tried this one before now.  In the imp- lots of vanilla, but not too sweet.  It's a dry vanilla.  The other notes make it interesting and not as sweet as well. 

On my skin unfortunately, it changes like just about all the vanilla scents and turns to a plasticy, overpowering scent.  My husband says it smells powdery on me, but he thinks all perfume smells powdery.

Sugar Skull '07- My first reaction is that I love this. It is so sweet and it isn't going bad on my skin like most sweet scents do. It's also a little smoky. Yummy.

Mmmm I love clove! I really don't get much of any of the other notes, but I do like it. I think I am also getting some other spicy notes, like cinnamon. It's a keeper.

All I am getting is the heather. It is soft, but I don't really like it. It's not my style.

This one is very much like the description on me. It starts out as mostly the spicy floral and then the plums come in underneath. It is nice, but I don't think I will wear it as much as everything else I have.

Sweet. I am getting the blackberry note, but not the specific cake one. It is like a combination of tart blackberry juice with added sugar and something else that I can't place. It is good, but I am not getting any wear out of it.

Dark! It gets very soft after just ten minutes. At first I wasn't so sure that I liked it, but now it is pretty interesting and pleasing. I really like the lab's patchouli. I don't really get any plum though. I was just going through my bottles deciding which ones I had to get rid of (I'm moving and need the space. I have too many unused oils.) This one was almost sent out, but now I have to keep it after one last try.

Red Phoenix on me is dark, moody, and spicy clean smelling. I've had this for a while and honestly have only worn it once. I think it is time for it to be moving on to a more appreciative owner.

I like the fruity sweetness, but the vanilla is doing what it always does and it is ruining the prettiness.

Hmm I thought I had already reviewed this, but I guess not. Monster Bait: Underbed is very sweet cassia on me. Probably not my first choice, but I do like it. It's warm and comforting.

Dead leaves and the dirty ground

Shiny tops and soda pops

Can't help thinking of this song for this scent. To me it is dead leaves, dirt, and old wood. It warms up later. Not sure I'd get much wear out of it.

At first this was juicy wet. It was fruit. And yes, it was purple. After a bit the grapes took dominance. Then it was less juicy and more floral, but dark. Overall, I do like it, but I might layer it with some clove or something to take the grape down a bit.

I love it!!! This goes on my new favorites list. The first time I wore it I got flowers, then sweet flowers, then soft honey. I wore it again today and the first whiff was orange peels and honey. Mmmmmmmmmmm Then it was floral and sweet and now honey. I love this so much.

There is something in here that reminds me of a note in some of the more herbaceous voodoo oils. I can't place it though. The scent of this is herbal and a little sharp. Probably rosemary or lavender. It is dark green (the scent not the color of the oil).

ROSE! Rose rose rose, rose rosey rose rose. Rose rose roses. Rose rose, "Rose rose?" Rose. Rose rose rosely roses. Rose.

Ok a little later a bit of leather came out. But rose amps big time on my skin.

Wet this is spicy and airy and fresh. It's a little sharp. It gets darker as it dries. And then on my skin it is totally gone. It doesn't last on me.

I can't think of what this reminds me of. Maybe birch? It's cold and peppery. It's a little minty and the lavender is coming out. It's definitely herbal. I don't think I'll really wear it much.

wow melon! This is fruity with a teeny bit of floral. Sweet. I like it. After a bit it calms down and gets much lighter. It's still lots of honeydew.

MXII- I got this a while back and never reviewed it. It's about time I did. It is very woody on me. It is woody and fresh and clean at the same time. Very interesting.

It starts out as bright, sparkly, orange. It is orange dessert wine. yummmm It mellows down a lot on my skin after a while. I wish it stayed as bright as when I first put it on, but I still like it.

This is very woody on me. There is also some incense in here. Someone else mentioned that this is like Al-Azif. I agree (from what I remember), but not quite as sweet as Al-Azif. Overall I like it, but there are other similar ones that I wear more.

I just realized that I never reviewed this one. It is very deep and dark and heavy. On my skin the notes I like the best (honey, clove, and sandalwood) get a bit lost. As it dries more it gets more sexy. The smoke and incense burn off a little and the other notes get to breathe a bit.

It starts out waxy orange with a little spice. It is warm and floral as well. Then after a bit, the rose starts really taking over (this happens on my skin) and then after a little longer it starts going weird (I just know it is the vanilla doing this). Grrr stupid vanilla.

I can't believe there's jasmine in this. Usually jasmine is terrible on me, but in this it's so great! It is cool and icy. I love it. In the imp it smells foody, but on my skin it's lemony and cold. I think I need a whole bottle.

ETA: :'( It's a little later and now it's doing that thing that jasmine does on my skin. I really liked this one. grrrrr Maybe I'll try it with a carrier oil and see if that helps.
