In bottle: A faint hint of honey...I can't smell the lemon at all. It's very warm, but not strong. Like autumn. It smells like a warm autumn night. Wet: it's much sweeter now, but not in a sickly way. More like...the party has started, and people are dancing under the moon. Dry: Rich honey and mead and warm autumn, all blurring together. Nothing really stands out to me, making it very warm without being overpowering at all. Definitely love this one!

In the bottle: Hm...very minty and herby. It's sharp, and I don't care for sscents like this much. Wet: it's not as sharp, not minty anymore. I don't know what it is, but it's soothing. Sniffing it almost gives me a peaceful sense of well-being, haha. Dry: Still very herby, and a little too strong for me. And yet I think I'll use it at night. Not a day scent by any means, but very good for bedtime. It makes me think of shadowy castles in the clouds. Very quiet and soothing.

In the bottle: Love it!! I can smell the mandarin, but underneath that it's warm. For some reason, it makes me think of an old dance hall... Wet: Ooh, very warm! It's sensual in a darker, alluring way. Everything the name promises. Dry: I can smell a bit more of the mandarin now...just enough to give the warmness an edge. This is amazing. I'm going to get a bottle of it first chance I get!

I can't do notes yet, but I'll give reviewing a shot. ^^ In the imp: It's a thin scent, but the rose has a bit of a cloying effect that makes me think of a room full of rich furniture and oil paintings. I can't wait to try it! Wet: The scent is thicker now; the rose is really strong on me. Now it makes me think of ladies sitting around having tea. It's warm, but the narcissus gives it a strange thinness. Dry: If pride ever had a scent, this would be it. Once it's dry, it's almost as dry a scent as Nosferatu, but the rose still hangs in the background, lifting it up. Definitely a haughty scent...it makes me feel powerful, hehe. I love it.

In the imp: It has a rich, fruity tang to it, like a mandarin orange. Not sure about this: fruity scents usually turn sickly on me. Wet: There's something I can't identify. Some strenge fruit. I guess that would be the forbidden fruit It's sweet, but not overly so, and still tangy. It makes me think of fairies playing in a sunny orchard. Dry: This didn't turn sickly at all. Instead, it stayed fresh and clean, with just a hint of sweet. it has all of the gentle innocence, paired with the tang of loss that I expected. I will definitely wear this again! ^^
