I'd stayed away from Ars Draconis because I didn't care for the ones a friend had let me smell (of course I can't remember which ones they were now). Someone on the Lush forum had recommended this when I said one of my favorite scents was lily of the valley. I just put some on and it's *lovely*. The lilac (which I also like as a scent) and the lily seem to be locked in a perpetual dance, neither is too strong but both are apparent. We had lilac trees growing next to our garage when I was younger, so I always think of spring when I smell them. I get what Sara was saying about soap, but it's a good soap. Good throw as well, Dragon's Eye is a new favorite. Out of 5, I'd give it 4.5.

The Babylonian Goddess of Dreams, who bestows the power of Oneiromancy onto her priests. This blend opens up psychic sensitivity during sleep and aids in the understanding and correct interpretation of portents and symbols. I didn't detect any lavender, which was disappointing since that's what I was hoping it would smell like. Quite sharp, I found it agitating, not something I'd put on before going to bed. It had a familiar smell, I couldn't place it at first, then realised...it smelled like an Aveda shop. I think it's a combination of lemongrass and bergamot, maybe. Anyway, it's gone in the swap pile.
