    Dead Leaves and Champagne  

    Champagne especially on wet, a note of green bellpepper and peppery leaves emerges as it dries. This one is like a celebratory Dead Leaves. Like it doused itself in champagne, sashayed and then made itself at home. Great throw on wet.

    Dead Leaves on Houseplants

    Green ivy, and a whiff of green dead leaves. This is an intensely green plant smell. I imagine this is what Poison Ivy, the DC comic character smells like. Intensely green. Medium throw and wear length.

    Dead Leaves, Leather, and Pink Pepper

    Dead Leaves, sharp pink pepper to give them bite, and a whiff of leather. This one is more of Dead Leaves + something else throw in on me. The pink pepper however is gorgeous and really makes this a great and wearable Dead Leaves dominant blend. Medium throw and wear length.

    Dead Leaves, Peppercorn, and Pumpkins

    Pepper, pumpkins, and a whiff of dead leaves. But again, this combination of pepper + pumpkin smells vaguely Indian cuisine to me, and ends up in a very savory place. Medium throw and wear length.
