    Azathoth

    I LOVE this scent and I think this one has become my favorite. Bottle Very strong alchohol scent. I though 'alchoholic' because I was addicted as soon as I smelt it. I also got a sense of sterility while smelling it. Reminded me of a hopsital. Worn: At first, it smelt like a hospital would smell like. Very clean. Then, it suddenly smelt exactly like a Greek Orthodox Church. I never thought Azathoth would have that kind of scent, but I was very pleased that it did. A couple hours later, it started to smell sexy in a very animalistic way. Overall, a great, strong scent. Just the way I like them. Can't get enough of this one. 10/10.

    Dragon's Heart

    Bottle: A very woodsy, rum-like scent. One of those scents that are subtle yet you can't stop smelling it. Worn Pretty much the same thing, except that it's very warm and soothing, like someone hugging you. I actually imagined a powerful dragon hugging people. Doesn't seem to last too long though. About a couple hours. Generally, I like the scent, and I'm not sorry for getting the 5 ML bottle of it. However, other Dragon scents are probably better for me. 7/10.

    Dragon's Bone

    I just love this scent. I put this one over twelve hours ago and I can still smell it! Bottle: A very sweet, floral(gardenia/jasmime like), wood scent. Ah, sandalwood. Worn: When wet, it felt very warm on me and it smelt like floral mixed with wood. When dried, the scent stayed the same, but it also smelt like sweet baby powder. I couldn't stop sniffing myself because it was a blend of scents that I liked. I really liked this scent a lot and would certainly conisder getting a larger bottle. 8/10.

    Moon Rose

    Easily one of my favorite scents. It didn't smell like just rose, it smelt like a ton of different kinds of roses, and dews and even carnations...on the moon. I just loved it. I'm a sucker for rose scents and this one was just perfect. Lasts for quite a few hours too. 9/10

    Villain

    Bottle: Speariment and lavender is what I smelt. Very yummy and clearly masculine. Not so much "bear" masculine, but rather swashbuckler or "rake"-like. Worn: It basically vanished as soon as I applied it. I could barely smell anything at all, except for an Irish Spring-like scent. Clearly, it doesn't work well on me at all. But, I think I think it would make a fine burn scent. Wouldn't get a bigger bottle, but an imp would do just fine. 7/10. ETA: Sure enough, it's a great burn scent. When I tried again a second time(I couldn't bear to swap it), it did much better on my skin, but still not as strong or long lasting as others. On the burner, it's considerably stronger. I guess some scents need time to get used to. This is one of them.

    Wings of Azrael

    Bottle: I had to smell this one quite a bit to be able to tell. It had a stony floral scent, but very light. As if petals were being lifted around you. Worn: At first, I got nothing but a lemon/powder like scent, but later on, I could smell a strong floral scent, like roses or lily. Very lovely. This one grew on me a bit, but I really like it. I wouldn't get a bigger bottle of it, but I wouldn't mind another imp. 6/10.

    Ra

    Bottle: Smelt like high quality aftershave. Nice and strong. I couldn't stop sniffing it. Worn: A water scent appears here, along with strong herbs. Fantastic when worn, and lasts for a few hours. Burnt: Basically, it's a mixture of cream lotion and herbs. Very pleasant, but not quite as strong as when worn. I really liked this one. Could easily end up getting a bigger bottle. 8/10

    Tamora

    Bottle: I had a hard time smelling anything. When I did, I had a hard time thinking of how to describe it. All I could think of was, "well, it smells good". That was it. I actually considered putting this one for sale/swap until I wore it. Worn: Fares much better here. The scents become stronger and it smelt to me like walking through a forest. Must have been the sandalwood. I also detected a lime/orange scent once it dried down. A few hours later, I actually smelt coconut. Certainly a very subtle and pleasing scent. Not something I'd get a bigger bottle of, but I wouldn't mind getting an Imp of it. 7/10.

    Sophia

    This is the first scent that I actively dislike. Bottle: When I smelt it, I had to turn away. I thought it would choke me. Yikes. I thought it smelt rotten orange peels, but I guess rotten flowers works just as well. Worn: Didn't work to well here either. I really wanted to like this one since Sophia is beautiful name, but I just don't. First imp in the swap/sell pile. 1/10

    Absinthe

    Smelt Reminded me of Ouzo, which is a Greek liquor that smells like licorice. Veyr strong too. I also got a speramint-like scent. Worn When wet, the Ouzo scent is as strong as in the bottle, but it's mixed with more speramint, lemon, powder and slight herbal. When dry, the lemon goes away, but everything else remains. However, it doesn't seem to last when I wear it and doesn't seem to work at all. Burnt Truly excellent. Smells the same as in bottle. Starts out subtle and becomes stronger in time. Loved the scent in the burner. Overall, it may not be for me to wear, but I would be glad to burn this. I knew I would love this scent and I did very much. Would certainly get a larger bottle! 8/10.

    Bruja

    I managed to snag a 5ml bottle of this one. I'm glad I did as I love this one! Bottle: Strong almond scent mixed with rum, light powder and light floral. Worn: Every note listed above sticks out much more. Just fabulous! Reminded me of a Greek almond dessert. Fairly long lasting too! Burnt: Doesn't seem to last long in this form. Also one of my favorite scents. Guess I'm a sucker for almond smelling things. YUM! 8/10. Too bad it'll be hard to get even an imp, much less a 5ml.

    Grandmother of Ghosts

    All I can say about this one is that it's a nice, musky earthy scent. That's what stayed with me whether I sniffed it, wore it, or burnt it. While a decent scent, it doesn't seem to stand out the way some others have done. Doesn't seem to last too long either. Good imp, but I can't imagine getting a bottle of it. 6/10.

    Nemesis

    My first and favorite scent! Bottle: Smelt like pine and lemon. Crisp and strong. Compelled me to try it almost immedietly. Worn: Truly excellent! Smells like a combination of sweet musk, pine, lemon, forest, and a a garden filled with everything. So long lasting that when I put it on in the afternoon, it was still there the next morning. Burnt: Doesn't seem to fare so well here. Works just fine, but there are better scents that could be burnt. This one is clearly meant to be worn rather than thrown on a burner. I love this one to pieces and will be going after a 10ML one. 9/10

    Kostnice

    Bottle: Light floral. Not rose, rather, I was picturing yellow, like sunflowers and daffodils. Something like that. Worn: It fails as a worn scent as it didn't last long at all, and I got was a lemon powder. Must be me. Oh well. Burner: Here is where Kostnice shines. In the burner, I imagined a countryside filled with yellow flowers and carnations. Starts out subtle, but gains some strength as it stays more in the burner. Very pleasant, and after awhile, the frankenscence and myhrr appear. It seems to become the famed "church" scent after a couple hours. Long lasting in the burner. In the end, I was a little disappointed, but thankfully, I can burn it. I wouldn't get a larger bottle though. 6/10.

    Vinland

    I purchased a five ML bottle of this just from reading the description. The risk was well worth it as this is one of my favorites. Bottle: Strong citrus scent, but not entirely so. Smelt like some berries too. Longberry was mentioned, so I think that's it. Worn: A combination of berry, citrus and forest. Very clean, very crisp. Like being in northern woods in autumn. Very strong and long lasting. Burner: Every single note is amplified a hundred fold. If too much is used, it can actually be nausiating, but once it stays more in the burner, it becomes the wonderful scent it truly is. Overall, this is one of my favorities. It's so strong that it actually emanates from the closed bottle. Love it! 9/10

    Viola

    This one is by far one of my favorites. Everywhere I smelt it(bottle, skin, burner) reminded me of a delicious blend of wine and roses. Quite strong when worn, but not as strong when burnt. Still, I'd certainly get a larger bottle of this one. 9/10.

    Wicked

    The only thing I smelt in bottle, when worn and when burnt was Jasmine. I didn't have a problem with this though since I like Jasmine just fine. If there was anything else in this scent, I either didn't know it was there, or I never noticed it. I really like this scent though. Very nice and strong, but I doubt I'd get a bigger bottle because there are too many scents I like better. 7/10.

    Haunted

    Bottle/WornSmelt like bread, pumpkin and earth. Weird. Not bad, just not what I expected. Burnt: Loved it in burn form. Truly excellent scent. Same as above, only it fared far better in a burner than on my skin. It was basically like walking into someone's house while they're baking a pumpkin bread. I loved this scent in a burner and I would buy a 5ML for that reason alone. If it could only be worn, then I wouldn't. 8/10.

    Belle Époque

    This scent reminded me of a perfume called "Beautiful". Bottle: Strong lemony scent. Not quite lemon, but I couldn't imagine anything else. Worn: Reminded me of a lemon and clean sheets. Lasted a couple of hours. Burnt: Much better and stronger here. Lily of Valley is smelt here too. Generally, I like the scent just fine, but I think it's better when it's in an oil burner then worn. It's not a scent that I would buy a bigger bottle of, but it's still a decent scent. 7/10.

    Blood Kiss

    Smelt: Basically smelt like a fine wine. Very nice. With some more whiffs, I noticed that it smelt like chocolate covered wine and cherries. Worn: It becomes what was mentioned above. The scent doesn't seem to change much, except the cherry scent becomes even more prominant, and there's a 'twig' scent that appears. The oil does fine on my wrists, but seems to burn everywhere else. Burner: The scents I got were pretty much the same, but faded faster than other oils I've burnt. Very pleasant though. This is the sort of scent that I wouldn't mind as an imp, but I can't imagine buying a larger bottle. I ended up puttting it in a spray bottle, which was pleasant. Not a bad scent, but not quite for me. 6/10.
