This started out ever so floral on me..the musk came out a few hours later. I couldn't detect the lemon or tea notes which is a pity. The floral/musk combination was pretty enough but on me it was fairly unremarkable. I think I will swap this one.

I may need a bottle of this. Out of the imp it's very, very jasmine and remains that way on application. The musk and spices come out on drydown. I'm really loving this one. The jasmine isn't so much of an artificial jasmine oil scent as a jasmine on the bush on a late spring night scent. Yum. There is also a very clean dewy acquatic quality to this scent so I think the description "crystaline" is apt. Not getting much staying power off this.. (I think this is just me. I have dry skin that seems to love to nom up oils at light speed)..BUT it's so damn pretty I'm quite sure I'm going to need it.

I was super excited to receive this after reading all the rave reviews..the whiff out of the bottle though...sharp and not so enticing. You get the honey..but also a very scary cherry nyquil note..eww. On my skin..for the first half hour this persists...*shudder* BUT it dries down to be an absolutely gorgeous honey vanilla that has decent lasting power on me.

Yum! This smells like woodsy honey to me. Really gorgeous. I may require MOAR.

Out of the bottle I find this scent deliciously intoxicating. Seriously. I sniff it.. my eyes roll back When initially applied there's a cherry note that I'm a little worried about but it dries down so nicely to a lovely balanced dragon's blood, honey, vanilla mix. The longer I wear it the more prominent the vanilla note becomes. Unlike so many this also has good lasting power on me. Overall. YUM! I can see myself wearing this a LOT. Edit: A few weeks on and I am loving this more and more. This is pretty much my go to. So delicious and it lasts FOREVER on me.

The pearl of the Italian Renaissance. Elegant iris, bright berries, gilded amber and velvety spices. Initially this is a super sharp woodsy scent on me that quickly drys to spices and berry. On me this is pleasant enough but I can't say that I'm hugely inspired. I think I may pass this one on.

Oh yum! This is really lovely. On me it's a beautiful light, bright,warm, clean spiced vanilla musk. Sadly I don't get a lot of throw or staying power from this..but it's so gorgeous I think I will need a 5ml bottle anyways.

I am liking this much more than I anticipated. On me it's dark, earthy,woodsy, cool, spicy and green. Reminds me of cool, shady places in dense damp forests. It's possibly a little too masculine for my tastes so I look forward to trying it out on my boy. Edit: Yum! The green in this turned to clean on me after a few hours of wear and this turned into an amazing, warm, spicy, inviting scent.

Oh..I like this. Have been wearing this as my bedtime scent for the last few weeks. On me it's a warm, smokey/sweet incense. Attractive, comforting and calming. Yum
