Rapunzel was the most beautiful child under the sun. When she was twelve years old the Witch shut her up in a tower, in the middle of a great wood, and the tower had neither stairs nor doors, only high up at the very top a small window. When the old Witch wanted to get in she stood underneath and called out:
`Rapunzel, Rapunzel,
Let down your golden hair,'
for Rapunzel had wonderful long hair, and it was as fine as spun gold. Whenever she heard the Witch's voice she unloosed her plaits, and let her hair fall down out of the window about twenty yards below, and the old Witch climbed up by it.
Angel's trumpet, bois de rose, orris, and wild lettuce.
straight sniff from imp is a delicate blend .... reminds me of my own dear grandaughter's lovely
locks...most definitely golden...and slightly fresh/green scent...
this is an elegant blend...perfectly concocted...i think i would prefer this in the spring....quite lovely -
When you return go alone, just you and the children and when you approach the beach then call for me:
Zilvine, Zilvineli,
If alive, may the sea foam milk
If dead, may the sea foam blood...
And if you see coming towards you foaming milk then know that I am still alive, but if blood comes then I have reached my end. While you, my children, let not the secret out, do not let anyone know how to call for me.
Blood rising through an ocean wave.
straight sniff from imp is a spicy dragon's blood and a sliver of aquatic goodness...
once applied, the spice and sea share equal billing that is truly electrifying!!
aaaargh maytee!!! a pirates blend, indeed for all the lost souls and treasures 'neath the ocean floor...
hand in hand, this proves to have great sillage and will be a big bottle purchase...
a most beloved ptown scent this shall be

Milk cresting on an ocean wave.
straight sniff from imp is most definitely the note from milk moon combined with a lightly diffused aquatic embrace...
once applied the aquatic note hits hard yet the combination of the milky, creamy, smoothness makes this
quite comforting...really fabulous...tons of throw and i think this could be a big bottle purchase

When they found that their father must take a journey to the ship, the two eldest begged he would not fail to bring them back some new gowns, caps, rings, and all sorts of trinkets. But Beauty asked for nothing; for she thought in herself that all the ship was worth would hardly buy everything her sisters wished for. "Beauty," said the merchant, "how comes it that you ask for nothing: what can I bring you, my child?"
"Since you are so kind as to think of me, dear father," she answered, "I should be glad if you would bring me a rose, for we have none in our garden." Now Beauty did not indeed wish for a rose, nor anything else, but she only said this that she might not affront her sisters; otherwise they would have said she wanted her father to praise her for desiring nothing.
The promise of a rose: red rose petals, fresh sap, and the sharp green scent of stem and leaf.
straight sniff from imp is a "dead ringer" for rose red of the yule LE version(s)....
once applied this a tad greener than rose red but just as gorgeous as ever!!!
amazingly fresh; exactly as a fresh rose smells ... i am in complete awe and a big bottle will
be on my next list....
-
straight sniff from imp is lemony herbs...
once applied, fruity and sparklee...just like snake tongues darting out of their mouths....cool!
a touch of musk and the fruit is still there... fades fast and furious but definitely a fun blend =-)
-
straight sniff from bottle this is phenomenal...totally buttermilk pancakes and goat butter!!!
ya gotta be lovin' that goat butter....
i wore this to the grocery store the other day and everyone was commenting....
comments: i smell something
really good...one person said they smelled bacon
huh?? someone else said they smelledpancakes....yay!!! someone else said they smelled bbque ribs...sooooo funny....of course i did not utter
a word...let them keep on guessing and snickering to my own self...the beauty of it?
no one even pointed to me and asked me if it was my perfume...that is what i love the most about
the lab's blends...itz not like a traditional perfume that clings...it wafts...
anyway...i adore it...it smells divinely of pancakes, goat butter and boysenberry....superb....

A languid and loathsome blend of dead wildflowers and smoky, sun-baked grass under a hot, humid blanket of summer gloom.
straight sniff from bottle is sweet grass and wild flowers...an achingly beautiful autumn blend...
once applied the florals become dried and there is a beautiful depth ... the sillage ~~wonderful and this scent is
neither in your face nor waffling in the background...grassy, floral, end of summer days...a sad departure of beaches,
picnics and bathing suits...and a glorious welcome to the cool autumn weeks, with the crisp, crunchy leaves underfoot and the brisk
air wisping 'cross your face and the smoky scent of a fireplace...
an astounding & unique beauty concocted by our master perfumer
11/10/08...doods...i no way smell coconut at all in this blend...too weird....did i get one of the first

-

-

straight sniff from imp is orange cake loaded with melted butter....mmmmm
once applied orange and anise and i am thrilled with this...i need a big bottle for certain...
a smooth and creamy dream come true ...

Your bottle of Satyr is legit & probably pretty rare now! Above is my bottle of Black Rose from 2003, so I'd estimate the bottle you have to be that age as well : ) Hold onto it, you've got a treasure!
I'm guessing Black Rose has been discontinued since? I can't find any mention of it on the lab site or reviews here.
black rose is part of the rappaccini's garden line and thankfully is still a GC scent cuz i love it
-
straight sniff from bottle is deliciously fruity and elegantly floral...
once applied this is marvelous!! i love beth's bamboo reed note and it works just
elegantly in this blend...yuzu, mandarin and cherry are nothing short of delightful...
alas, the staying power is short lived, i shall just have to slather more often...
-
straight sniff from imp is creamy, honeyed rose
once applied this is the most beautiful rose and the creamy vanilla balances this to
perfection .... this is such an elegant blend...pure love
-
straight sniff from imp is an overload of leather and spice...
once applied heavy, damp leather with pumpkin and spice...
i am detecting a soil note and a touch of pine...
the leather unfortunately overwhelms...this is strong....
not for the faint of heart
-
straight sniff from imp is cider and beer...
once applied this amps up and with loads of smoky goodness and apples with orange peels...

-
straight sniff from imp is dandelion and clover...
once applied soapy dandelion...hmmm...
after a few minutes balsam logs and a touch smoky...
quite lovely and a perfect scent for the cool autumn months ahead
-
straight sniff from imp is very green...
once applied i can smell the blackberry leaf and roses...this really is pretty and
very dark...a little too floral for my tastes
-
straight sniff from imp is musky leather...
once applied this has a slight peppery quality...
this is a less invasive leather as with some of the labs other blends
containing this note...
mostly pure musky leather and quite butchy indeed...
-
