The wet had a bit of a nose tingle which wasn't unpleasant, added to the "cold" atmosphere, but man, when this dried...blech.

I am right there with Little Bird's review...its totally like you are smelling that medicine cabinet - but I'd add to the analogy of smelling a shitty, cheap vodka (think "Dark Eyes") again when you are hung-over. *shudder*

Well...Hmmm...I'm kind of 0/2 on the Yules that I bought unsmelled.

This one: In the bottle - LEMON PLEDGE. No more, no less. Even had that odd, sharp chemical smell. I was afraid.

Wet - the chemical smell is replaced a bit with what I believe is the freesia, making it more pleasant. Not as much Bergamot as I had hoped (I LOVE Bergamot. LOVE LOVE LOVE.)

Dry Down - soft lemon, slightly floral. It was gone from my pulse points in an hour tho...

All in all, it's "ok." Not unpleasant, but neither does it smell remotely "holiday-esque" or seasonal. I'm kind of disappointed.

I do help run the RPG "Call of Cthulhu" at the big Gen Con game fair every year in August, so maybe I'll save it for hot summer nights and be able to tell anyone who asks that I'm wearing a Miskatonic Valley-inspired scent. It'll be good for a conversation, if nothing else.

Apparently USPS is sucking more than usual lately, and no one's DC numbers are working. Your package should still be en route.

Many thanks, Ang...you helped relieve my nerves, and my package did in fact arrive this morning!

Excited noobie here as well...I ordered on 9/30, and received a CnS on 10/11 saving that it was due to ship on the 12th. However, when I click on the Track & Confirm link provided in the email, it says that "There is no record of this item."

Gah!

Should I panic?

Is this odd?

Will I even get my Halloweenie scent before Halloween?

Thank you!
