Lotus root, blue lotus petals, white amber, mallow, and vanilla cream.
-
Honey-drizzled discarded bread crusts.
-
Lilith among the graves waiting for the show to start: warm apple cider, wild sage and crushed grass, soft soil, big squirreltail, and dandelions.
-
Lilith among the roots of the Tree of Life. Dappled shadows flickering through Spanish moss, oakmoss, oak twigs, squished mushrooms, pine needles, and lavender buds with beams of Manuka honey sunlight.
-
Warm brown musk, honey, patchouli, hay absolute, and brown oud.
-
Dust, rags, leather, and shining steel. Brown leather, steel and a touch of dust. Honestly, this makes me think of a cross between Quincy Morris and the Torture Queen. If you've ever been craving a replacement for Quincy Morris, I'd give this puppy a whirl. Good throw and wear length.

White pear and absinthe, sea moss and patchouli, labdanum and crushed coral. This one is such an interesting scent. To me, the patchouli reads as licorice, which I think is the presence of absinthe. I get absinthe, licorice, moss, and a touch of labdanum and pear. I think the pear and coral end up giving it a tropical edge without it being coconutty, and its a very warm blend. But yeah, I swear this has licorice in it. Medium throw and wear length.

A gentle blend, soothing, merciful, and compassionate: orris root, white sandalwood, coconut husk, bourbon vanilla, almond milk, angelica root, and storax.
-
No additional scent description.
-
Juniper berries, green tea, white sandalwood, and bamboo shoots.
-
Smoky red musk and beeswax. Aged DB, musk, and a touch of honey. Good throw and wear length.
-
Gingerbread and a leather chair. This smells like Christmas spent in a fancy home library. Somewhat masculine? Medium throw, medium wear length.
-
Myrrh, sandalwood, frankincense, and then I get a sweet lavender hit, and it ends up in a sweet resin with floral whiffs here and there. Medium throw and wear length.
-
White grapefruit and a whiff of tea. If you're looking for a grapefruit scent, give this one a twirl. Medium throw and wear length.
-
This smells like a very dirty patchouli. It's just a gritty dirty patchouli. Medium throw and wear length. Patchouli lovers, take note.
-
Coconut, and a whiff of resins. It's basically a coconut SN for me. Medium throw and wear length.
-
Clean sage, with maybe a bright citrusy edge. But yeah, if you were looking for a very clean sage blend, look no further. Good throw and wear length.
-
All the plum, and maybe a whiff of vanilla. Yup. All the plum. Medium throw and wear length.
-
Cacao + oud as described, however the monster throw in this is something people should note. The cacao is dry, (not sweet), and the oudh is well behaved.
-
Pumpkin cheesecake, hints of chocolate and cherry. Oddly peanut buttery? I mean, who complains about that? Medium throw and wear length.
-
*squint* Dead Leaves, is this you? This smells as if Dead Leaves and Graveyard Dirt had a baby. Dirt + leaves. Medium throw and wear length.
-
Lemony incense. Huh. Okay. Medium throw and wear length.
-
Extra resinous smoky Snake Oil. If there's Maiden in here, it definitely got overpowered by both Snake Oil and Hellfire. Resins, smoke, and Snake Oil. It's like Snake Oil went to mass... black mass. Good throw and wear length.
-
This just ends up in smoky green tea. Like if you mixed lapsang tea + gunpowder green tea. Smoky. Good throw and wear length.
-
Resinous powdery sugar. I think Lust + Darkness ends up in a powdery musk on me, with myrrh shining through, and a bunch of sweet sugar from Midway. Medium throw and wear length.
