Salt-crusted wooden planks warmed by cardamom, 7-year aged patchouli, tonka bean, mace, and black pepper.

A sailor’s love song to her ship: Laotian oud, white cedarwood, sweet black patchouli, spiced rum, blackened fig, and coconut.

Smoldering spiced oak boughs and pine pitch crackling with golden sap.

Blinding-white mallow and vanilla sandalwood streaked with indigo opium pod accord, velvet black violet petals, wild plum, and opoponax.

Agreeable, tidy, and well-kept. She has kind eyes and a merry laugh. A bubble-pop of gaiety: polished teakwood, white musk, sweet benzoin, patchouli, star anise, and wild cherry. I get mainly a polished teak and patchouli with a whiff of anise and cherry. It's very polished, woody, blend. Fancy. Medium throw.
-
Honey-infused goat milk, incense smoke, yew boughs, black pepper, mandrake root, ambrette seed, red currant, kitchen herbs, and fly agaric accord.
-
Clove smoke, champaca incense, plum velvet, and hairspray.
-
A thin, sorrowful, lonely scent: white musk and dust, elemi and white amber, carrot seed and opium tar accord.

Tuberose and sweet amber.

Le Jour des Morts is a scent of remembrance, a blessing for those who have come before us. It is a bittersweet incense with red roses, climbing ivy, black hellebore, black dahlias, and a drop of red wine. Le Jour des morts est un parfum de souvenir, une bénédiction pour ceux qui nous ont précédés. C'est un encens aigre-doux avec des roses rouges, du lierre grimpant, de l'hellébore noir, des dahlias noirs et une goutte de vin rouge. Inky black incense, drop of roses and ivy. I actually get a fair amount of dark incensey florals on top of all of this. Good throw and wear length.

A bounty of butter, honey, and sweet cream.

No additional scent description.

This one has vetiver and sandalwood, or even perhaps cedar. It ends up smelling like smoky, masculine pencil shavings. Odd.

Lavender-enveloped Snake Oil with cotton candy, honey, and rosewater.

A dribble of pumpkin spice spilled onto a fluffy orange angora sweater.

Hazy clouds of bonfire smoke and dark, resinous incense envelops the silhouettes of shape-shifting witches dancing ‘round a blazing fire: black incense, woodsmoke, sumac, turmeric, dried ginger, cassia husk, red cedar berries, 7-year aged patchouli, wood moss, and blood-red vegetal musk
-
Grave-dry rice milk, black moss, hemp fibers, bone-white sandalwood and orris root, and bog osmanthus.
-
Sugar, tea, and rum.

She seems happier lately. We want whatever Meemaw’s having! Peel back the wrapper of universal consciousness and savor this hard nugget of butterscotch with a decidedly suspicious aftertaste.
-
Honeyed lilies, white musk, white pear, and golden amber.

Lavender, hint of fruit (plum, I think), and lotus... as I get the dreaded bubblegum note. I think there might be some cedarwood and potentially some myrrh in it, as it has a somewhat resinous grounding in the drydown. It's a little too sweet, a little too fruity. Interesting, but not for me.
-
An incense of candied smoked fruits, Oman frankincense, red oud, labdanum absolute, sheer vanilla, patchouli, red musk seed, osmanthus, and datura accord.

Honey-sweet and thick with blood: red roses and honey, a throb of red musk, bitter neroli and clove husk all staining a slash of sheet-white vanilla sandalwood.
