  1. I really love this. I can smell the chocolate but it's more like baking chocolate not sweet milk chocolate. It's also spicy and the way it smells reminds me of a dessert I ordered at Tango called, El Diablo. It's described as "Bittersweet cube of sinfully rich dark chocolate graced with cayenne, spicy almonds, cocoa nibs and burnt meringue finished with a tequila caramel sauce".

     

    I bought a bottle.


  2. I love this so much! :wub2:

     

    In bottle: Black licorice...yay! The label is adorable....one of my favorites.

     

    Wet on skin: Black licorice and something that makes it smell like the bridge mix candy licorice nonpareils and neopolitans. It's my favorite candy.

     

    Dry on skin: Now the cacoa is coming out a little bit...soft and velvety.

     

    Verdict: I smelled this prototype at the August will call and promptly ordered a bottle and boy am I glad I did! I love this more than Pink Mood which I didn't think was possible. I'm sorely tempted to purchase a back up.


  3. This did smell a bit medicinal in the bottle...then I figured out what it was. It smelled like film! Like the old school rolls of film. I kinda dug it. So I put in on my male photographer friend and in about 15 minutes it smells manly and delicious on him. I don't remember any specific notes, just that it smelled good.


  4. In the bottle: Vetiver!

     

    Wet on skin: Dry, dusty coconut, incense and vetiver.

     

    Dry on skin: Oh my, this has dried down into a beautiful, sexy scent. I can now smell the Snake Oil and the rest of the elements have melded into a beautiful, dark and sexy thing. Applied lightly it might be a summer/spring time scent but definitely good for fall and wintery days. I can't wait to slather it!

     

    Verdict: Bottle worthy for sure.


  5. I love this. It's my favorite of the entire collection.

     

    In the bottle: Spicy and incense-y with some green.

     

    Wet on skin: Clove goodness with some patchouli in there for good fun.

     

    Dry on skin: I love this. It's spicy and soft and delicious.

     

    Verdict: Bottle worthy.


  6. In the bottle: very cologne like.

     

    Wet on skin: Super fruity and sweet.

     

    Dry on skin: This smells like it's got a wine don't which does not work for me at all.

     

    Verdict: Not for me unfortunately. I'm sure this will smell lovely on some lucky person but it just doesn't work for me.


  7. In the bottle: Slightly spicy and medicinal.

     

    Wet on skin: Spicy with a powdery sweetness from the amber. I can smell the opoponax and I like it.

     

    Dry on skin: It's settled down a bit but still has good throw. It's sweetened up and the spicy is wearing off a bit.

     

    Verdict: I like it but I think the imp will be fine for me. :)


  8. In the bottle: Green and woodsy with a slight effervescence.

     

    Wet on skin: It smells like wood and roses? I don't see rose in the description but that's what it smells like on me. Maybe the combination of the other notes make it smell like that?

     

    Dry on skin: It kind of reminds me of a more masculine version of Knave Of Hears with more rose and less current and foodie smell.

     

    Verdict: It's intriguing for sure but not really for me. Rose is hard for me to wear, but I bet this will be beautiful on some people!


  9. In bottle: Greenish, chilly floral.

     

    Wet on skin: Minty and green with some sort of white floral?

     

    Dry on skin: This has settled into a yummy vanilla minty gum with some green floral. I love it.


  10. I have two versions, '07 and '08.

     

    The '07 version:

     

    In bottle: Something floral, and sharp. I'm *almost* getting an apple vibe from it?

     

    Wet on skin: Floral and chilly and sharp almost metallic.

     

    Dry on skin: This softens into something totally extraordinary on me. I love it. Now I can smell a bit of vanilla? No apple at all anymore. Chilly white florals, vanilla and 100% delicious.

     

     

     

    The '08 version:

     

    In bottle: Softer than the '07. Vanilla?

     

    Wet on skin: Again softer and I can definitely smell some vanilla.

     

    Dry on skin: It's like '07's little sister. I Snow White ages really well and the '08 will grow up to be just as beautiful as her older sister.

     

     


  11. I love this.

     

    In bottle: Spicy!

     

    Wet on skin: Spicy and with a bit of rose maybe? It's floral but not an overpoweringly floral.

     

    Dry on skin: Lots of spices now. I can definitely smell the red musk and the rose has backed off a bit. Throw was good at first but it's settled down and is pretty wearable.
