  1. In the IMP/bottle it smells like a salty sweet melon with hints of the beach and coconut. Some suntan lotion there too.

    On me it's coconut and flowers!! A gorgeous summary and fruity scent. Love it.


  2. In the bottle/imp it's warm, spicy, sweet and slightly herby. I can't identify a specific note though.

     

    On me it's actually sweeter and very green, leafy and soft. Some icyiness and a slight smokiness but the sweet softness is the most dominent. It's much more floral and fruity than I expected. Very light.

     

    This is all sweet Fall flowers.


  3. Samhain 2014

     

    In the imp/bottle I smell what I like to call a cluster of Fall yumminess. Spicy warm apple mixed with touches of spice, bitter leaves and hints of the patchuli.

    On my skin it's warm apple in all their glory with a background of sweet and warm spices, hinting at sharp herbs and leaves.

    It smells like Fall, it smells like warm fire places, it smells like a barn full of hay, it smells like a farm house kitchen.

     

    This is everything Autumn should be and is and I absolutely love it.

     

     

    Samhain 2015

    In the bottle it smells similar to my 2014 bottle but with a much sweeter undertone and WINE!

    At first when it hits my skin its burning leaves! Thankfully the dry down is beautiful, apples, smoke, spices and ANOTHER MEMORY ... how the lab manages to capture my memories in a bottle is beyond me. But it's sweet and chilly and warm and oddly familiar. Love it.


  4. At first smell in the bottle/imp it smells like juicy ripe blueberries with a hint of bubblegum sweetness. A very blue, sweet and clean smell.

    On my skin it's berries and sweet lemon. Hints of floral and lavender. A very clean, green, sweet and berry scent. Gorgeous :heart:


  5. I am going to eventually use this in my meditation/TAL workings but wanted to review it as a scent first.

     

    In the imp it's thick cherry and herbs/leaves. On me WOW it's strong! It's herby, woody, sweet and has hints of dark murky waters. I get more cherry, mint and some boozy vanilla. It's not something I would usually wear but it's actually surprisingly lovely.

     

    Dark, sexy and mysterious.


  6. Amazing, amazing, AMAZING.

     

    I am a huge white tea fan, and love clean, sweet herby scents.

     

    I have thick, long, frizzy and wavy hair. I used 4 squirts and my hair smells incredible. The tea not is very strong and the sage is smokey and sweet, with lovely herby accents.

    My hair was due for a wash when I used the gloss so after using it I did notice it was mush smoothu, softer and less frizzy. I'm curious to use it tonight after I wash my hair.

     

    I think this will go perfectly with most of my BPAL. I can see it pairing very well with Shanghai, Embalming Fluid and some of my clean scents (Water over Notre Dame, Come To Me and Dirty)

     

    Highly recomended.


  7. In the bottle it smells sweet & thick, with purple, grape, violet and plum hints. It smells so lovely and juicy!

    On me it's darker and more sensual. It's still very violety but with a very clean and green scent mixed in. As it dries it goes from smokey to sweet violet again.

     

    Not as wet and sweet as in the bottle but still very pretty. Violet, leaves and cleanliness.

     

    Love :heart:


  8. I took a chance with this because musk is my death note. It's a very sweet, leafy, boozy sugary scent on me. On my skin it's very soft and not as strong or boozy as the bottle suggests. I can smell the rose in the background but luckily it's not too powerful.A very pretty smell :)


  9. In the IMP oh the sweetness ..so so lovely and sweet. On me it starts off STRONG, a very heady glamourous sweetness. Rose, violet, sugary goodness. I love this. It makes me feel so pretty and girly.

    As it dries there is a cool, clean, watery sweetness that comes through.

     

    I have interview this afternoon for some PT work (2nd job) and then a meeting with my son's teacher. I'll reapply later and see how i affects these encounters, and I want to see if my hubby notices ;)


  10. In the bottle it smells like a forest filled with wildflowers drenched in rainwater after a storm. Sweet and soapy.

    On me it’s much stronger and sharp, very woody at first but as it dries down, the rose and berry come out nicely. Sweet, clean, bitter and oaky all blending nicely together.

     

    Edit: Just got a HUGE headache, not sure if the scent or something else :(


  11. Musk scents always make me wary but I decided to try this anyway.... in the imp it's warm red and sweet, not much muskiness, maybe just a touch?

    The dry down ... on me it's a warm, sweet and "old" smell (think leather clad libraries or a museum.) The sweetness of the lavender, sage and mango hide mostly all of the musk and amber making this a very green and sweet scent despite still being warm.

     

    Really lovely, so glad I tried it :wub:


  12. In the bottle it's sweet and herby. On me it's beautiful clean and green with hints of flowerly sweetness. The ivy being the strongest out the ingridients listed, but not overwelming. It does remind me slightly of Glasgow but it's different (if that makes sense!)

     

    A beautiful herb scent filled with flowers. Right up my alley! LOVE!


  13. In the bottle it's all grass and flower sweetness and it smells wet and clean and fresh. On me it's stronger and sweeter and amazing! I can't pick out one dominering scent it's all just a gorgeous sweet clean and green scent. I do get hints of a wet and sweet cucumber. It reminds me of a spa, very luxurious! Love it.


  14. In the bottle it's warm cherry caramel toffee. On me it's sweeter and less foody (yay) as it dries down it's more of a flowery cherry and strawberry. I was worried it would be too food like and sickly caramel/vanilla on me but it dries down nicely. Soft and feminine. Reminds me of scratch and sniff stickers from when I was little! Gorgeous!


  15. In the bottle it smells like creamy vanilla mixed with buttered caramel popcorn. On my skin it thankfully doesn’t! On me it smells like a tropical smoothie, the orange being the strongest. It's still warm and buttery though.

     

    As it dries it's more fruity and candy like. Lovely!


  16. In the bottle it smells like bath oil scented with soft flowers from a field. On me its much stronger but it's sweet and green and soft and lovely and feminine. It's a beautiful smooth flowery scent. Clean and gorgeous!


  17. Not usually a rum/food/nut fan but thought I'd give this a try. In the imp sweet sweet rum mixed with marzipan. On my sugary rose marzipan with woody polish hints.

    Very sweet and flowery. Not what I expected. It's very girly and pretty.


  18. I would love to start a art swap but have never runa a swap before and was hoping someone would help do one with me? The theme would be

    "Cheesy Fantasy/Romance Book covers" or something to that effect. Not even sure where to start so advice/help would eb appreciated :eek:

     

    Oo! Me! Me!

     

    I'd be so all over the cheezy romance cover artswap! I'll help. :D Why is there no jumping up and down icon?

     

     

    Can I take you up on the offer to help? I've never run a swap before and I have no idea where to start :think:


  19. I think I have the 2012 veriosn not sure :think: ... but I am always weary of musk because it can smell terrible on my skin.

     

    In the bottle it smells like a sweeter, candy version of The Lampades. On me the musk is very very subtle and the sugary booze is more prominant.

    Soft and sensual. Lovely :wub2:


  20. In the IMP it's minty herb and cool green. It reminds me of walking through forest trails after a heavy rainfall and the plants are all heavy with wetness. On me it's very strong and warm! Now it smells like an insense/soap/candle shop, a mixture of herby goodness. As it dries down it's sweeter and not as strong. Very pretty.
