  1. In the imp: Wow. I'm getting FLORAL!!!! Bright, bright floral.

     

    On the skin: As it mellows on the skin, it begins to lose it's floral vibe. It's still there but not as IN YOUR FACE. I can smell the cinnamon and vetiver. More cinnamon than vetiver. I do get the dragon's blood which I feel is what's giving the floral slap.

     

    The cinnamon is still in the forefront. Hummmmm.......not sure if I like this. I'm glad it's on the spicy side. I wish the vetiver were stronger.

     

    Swapping.

     

     


  2. This is a beautiful fresh peach scent. The musks make it less sweet and just wonderfully wearable.

     

    The only problem with it is that it doesn't last long. But I love the summery scent. I may need a bottle......


  3. Okay, I get the mint. And it's kinda nice. I'm not a minty person. There's some herbs floating in there too. I'm getting wafts of rose and it's not a terrible rose scent since it's mingling with the mint. It's a fresher scent. I'm gonna enjoy my imp but I don't feel the need for a bottle.


  4. First off, I LOVE vetiver. I am a woody kinda gal. Now, the myrrh is a different story. I'm not sure I like it. I'm a fan of spicy too but this one is not playing nice with me. Mothballs. I'm smelling mothballs. Hummmmmm........don't know if I'm liking these mothballs.


  5. It is the same in the imp as on my skin.

     

    Red, fruity, berries sweet and boozy. No morphing. It is what it is. If you are looking for a sticky, fruity scent this is the one for you. Has a bit of throw. I do like it. Not enough for a bottle. I wish it had some SPICE to it. Then, I'd be in LOVE!!!!


  6. Very bright scent. It's a floral that is quite reminicent of a bathroom scent that someone else mentioned. I get no grapefruit. I'm really not liking this scent. Nothing special.

     

    I really liked the title of this too.....

     

     


  7. I got this as a frimp in a recent order from the lab!

     

    In the imp: Citrus. Grapefruit. But a soft grapefruit. Tempered by the aquatics blooms.

     

    On the skin: EXTREMELY light throw. Very pretty though. I don't get any mint. And the champagne is just bringing the scents together. It's not really a front runner, which is good. If it's there, it just grounds the citrus.

     

    After an hour. Very close to the skin. Mellow and pretty. On my skin it's warm, not really a cold scent. I really like it. It's almost perfumey. I just wish it was a bit stronger.

     

    OKAY. I tried it again after I had the imp in my pocket so it was nice and warm. I slathered some on and I could smell something minty. And it's NICE! YEAH!!!!


  8. In the imp: Has a cologne scent. I happen to like that. Plus it has a spicy, resin smell.

     

    On the skin: Nice. But it's starting to have the head shoppe smell to it. Probably the black opium.

     

    Dry down: Sweet, spicy, and headshoppy. I really don't get a lot of floral. Hummmmm........very interesting.


  9. It's a beautiful, juicy tangerine scent. I think the musk and cyprus mellow it a bit but I really don't get those scents on my skin. I just get the tangerine. It's kind of creamy after it melts on the skin. I love it.

     

    It reminds me a lot of Gold Phoenix, which I enjoy very much. If you're looking for orange, juiciness I would recommend Thoos and Gold Phoenix. Wonderful, wonderful!! :wub2:


  10. In the imp: A cologne that has a slight whiff of mint and citrus, but a cologne none the less. I like it.

     

    On the skin: CUMIN! Blah. Cumin and my skin do not mix. It smells a bit sour, like it wants to really turn to a funky cat-pee smell. I get some fir but not much. It's wrestling with the cumin and the cumin is winning!

     

    Dry Down: The sourness is GONE, thank god, but it's starting to turn waxy smelling on me like a lot of scents do. I'm glad I tried it, but it's not for me. I'm sure someone will love this little imp!

  11. Oya


    This smells like a lemony cleaning product. Ughhhh, on the skin it smells even more so. I had it on for 10 minutes and I just couldn't take it any more. I scrubbed it off. Not my thing at all!


  12. In the imp: Something citrusy, not really the orange that everyone is getting. Plus something strange, maybe herbal. Hummmmm...

     

    Wet: I'm hinting something peppery, probably the ginger and citrus again.

     

    Dry down: Nothing creamy here. Just a funky smelling citrus. I like a nice juicy orange or tangerine but this is neither. Not much throw at all and my skin seems to be eating it.

     

    I'm glad I got to try it, but it's not for me.


  13. March hare smells very fresh and light. The apricot is sweet but not TOO sweet. I really don't get any clove but it's a spicier apricot. I like it a lot! It doesn't have much throw and it doesn't last long on me at all, but it's a very nice scent that I may at some point get a bottle!

     

     


  14. It's herbal and green at first whiff, which isn't bad. Once on the skin and it dries the berries pop out a bit with, as most people have stated, with something sharp. It does calm down after a bit of warming from the skin from the musk. And it doesn't have a lot of staying power. If it wasn't on my skin, it might smell a lot better. It doesn't do a lot for me. A pleasant summer evening scent though.


  15. I was really excited about this scent because of the orange and clove. I was hoping for another Knick-knack, but it was not to be. I got no clove or peach. It smells like patcholi and something else from a head shop. Really, not my taste. I am really bummed.......


  16. It smells like a oatmeal cookie! I can smell something nutty. I get a very faint whiff of wine but not much. It's sweet and foody but comforting, just like food should be! I'm really liking it. If I gnawed off my arm, I wonder if any one would notice......


  17. In the imp: tobacco and something boozy and a little leather

     

    wet: A lot of tobacco and some vanilla, but not a lot. But it's not smelling good with my chemistry....

     

    Dry: Wax. Why my skin turn many scents to candle wax is beyond me. :rantrave:


  18. In imp: Smokey. Meaty! Love me the vetiver.

     

    Wet: Smoke is lifting. Spices are starting to settle in....nice.

     

    Dry: Spicy. Incensy. I like it. I don't smell any Bay Rum. I do like the scent though. Once you get past the smoke, it takes you in with it's sugary spice. :P


  19. Ever since I got a hold of some Knick Knack, I know I NEED to get some more OR the scent equivalent. Can anyone suggest a GC or limited edition that is spicy-orange and clovey. No smoke, no leather, tobacco and no dark musk in the mix. Dark Musk turns straight to powder on me. THe other 2 are always "iffy." Knick knack has a very churchy incencey smell on me which I really love.

     

    Can anyone help a sista out???

     

    Puppet Mistress :beg:


  20. I love, love, love musks. But this one.....not so much.

     

    On Wet: it takes on a "headshop" smell. I'm not a fan.

     

    10 minutes on: Sharp. Almost BO! UGHHHH!!!

     

    1 hour: Not as sharp. The Jasmine still has a slight sharp BO smell on my skin. I do not dig it.

     

    I'm sure this one will find love with a friend of mine as long as her chermistry doesn't make it smell like BO.
