Gorgeous. Foody, but it works. Rich pastry with a lot of fig, beeswax and just the merest hint of pomegranate. Some of my favorite notes all rolled into one scent!

This is lovely. I get NO smoke from my bottle, which I am glad of. It smells like faint orange-honey and beeswax from a candle. A warm, glowing and utterly comforting scent. One of my favorites!

This is a really beautiful blend that commands attention. It's a bold red rose with fir and clove. This is a truly stunning and unusual interpretation of the red rose. Combined with white rose, the unity set becomes just feminine enough for me to wear, without being "just another rose blend." It's really a breathtakingly beautiful combination.

Nice! I'm definitely getting sweet white rose, coconut and benzoin. It's very very light and feminine-- a bit too wallflowery a scent for me all by itself, but with red rose this is just gorgeous! It really mellows out red rose and turns it into a really unusual, refreshing rose blend.

This spray is very light and fresh. I'm not getting much of an earthy base, but it smells very much like oranges and white blossoms (daisies!). Very cute room scent. It reminds me a lot of L'Estate spray without the amber.

I'll be wearing Kumiho for sure! it just screams Spring to me...

Leather, cognac, fig, ripe berry, and cream, stuffed into a plain brown paper bag. Sigh. This smells like really strong burnt rubber on me (O HAI LEATHER) and cognac. That's all I get. Oh, and some really bad musk-- I think that's the so-called "paper bag note."

This smells like a soapier, muskier, perfumier Kumiho, but I don't like it nearly as much. Pass.

In bottle: whoa. this smells like actual milk. as in from a cow. Wet: this is scarily realistic milk... milk, with its ever-so-slightly sour and animalistic smell. however, I am surprised at the accuracy of Beth's description. this is the smell of a mother and child, definitely. it's a very nurturing scent. dry: oh, crap. I'm getting that "baby formula" note. and oddly, I never get any honey. just milky baby formula and baby powder. this is nice but it makes me smell like a new mom!

Scorched baseball fields, black glots of incense, spilled coffee, and pancake residue. In the bottle-- caramel syrup and pancakes, maybe a twinge of coffee. On-- sweet green grass with pancakes and syrup, and maybe a bit of coffee. This reminds me of Possets Queen of the Night, with the fresh green smell layered over a deep foody, cakey smell, although the two are completely different perfumes. Over all, I love this and it smells really beautiful. A nice spring and summer scent!

Oh, WOW. This is my second favorite of the chocolates. This is unabashedly gooey, rich milk chocolate and delicious butter cream frosting. Stays true on my skin.

Mmmmmm. This is my favorite, as I ADORE caramel, pepper, and chocolate. This is a deep, rich caramel with just a hint of pepper and chocolate. Luuuuurve. I smell delicious! EDIT: Ew, it quickly turned into bbq sauce on my skin. NOOOOO!

Weird. this smells like milk or dark chocolate to me in the bottle. On, however, it lightens up to smell almost exactly like Faith, only a tad creamier and sweeter. Nice!

Mmmm. boozy dark cherry cordial. The cherry kind of explodes on my skin, but it stops from turning too sweet, due to the lovely dark chocolate note.

Wow... this is the most "white chocolate" smelling of the white chocolates! I don't get much marshmallow or coconut, but this does smell like delicious melted white chocolate. I'm impressed!

Holy...! EEEEE! This is a fresh strawberry dipped in cream and sugar. I don't get a lot of chocolate but HOO BOY. This is delicious and so realistic!

I actually like this, and I usually hate dragon's blood. It just smells like soft, slightly floral coconut on me. Simple, but nice!

OMG, YUCK. This smells like cheap cologne. I prefer Havana for a soft, spicy leather scent. It's similar to this only not as harsh and "loud."

I agree with the previous reviewer. Straight up leather, but at least the scent is soft. Compared to Dee, this is a nice skin scent, while Dee is strident and overpoweringly COLOGNE.

Hm. This is all apple in the imp, but on is a different story. I get a deep herbal, medicinal smell. This would be nice on a man, but it's not for me.

This is lovely. A nice, buttery almond layered over deep myrrh.

Wow, I actually hate this, and I love amber, roses, and lilies. But this is very sharp and ammonia like. You know the dreaded cat pee note? This is it, with a tad of rose and powder. Not a fan. This smells very much like the Miller's Daughter, a sharp, powdery rose... but I didn't like that one either.

This is masculine but very soft, too. At first it is very fresh and sweet from the basil and sage. However, the drydown is the sweet, odd smell of ambergris with a heavy undertone of frankincense.

Hmm, stephanotis is rather a bad note for my skin. It smells like some sort of medicinal poison. Okay, here goes: Wet: BOLD cherry and fresh white lilies. Dry: WHOA. VERYYYY green, fresh smelling lilies. A bit too sharp. Suddenly, though, after about ten minutes, the cherry reemerges, along with the nasty poison smell of stephanotis... but I'm still getting sharp white lily. Hm. This is alright, but my favorite lily blends have already been found. If you want a well-behaved lily, try Tiger Lily

I agree with savage_rose! This jasmine is INCREDIBLY well-behaved. At first sniff, there is a hint of fresh lime which quickly burns off. I don't get any tuberose here that others have mentioned, but I do get a VERY realistic, non-cat-pee smelling jasmine. It smells like a jasmine tree on a crisp summer evening. I may need a full bottle of this just because I love jasmine and BPAL's jasmine note always seems to turn to ammonia on me. BUT NOT THIS!
