I get all raspberry slushie. I have yet to put it on yet, but in the bottle it smells like an ice cold red no. 5 summer boozey drink. YUM. EDIT...I did try it on, it definitely looses its fresh sweetness on me and turns a little sour.

Wow. I wasn't expecting to like this as much as I do. It was given as a frimp in my last order and I bestowed it onto my man as he likes fresh, watery, soapy scents but hasn't tested it out yet. So of course I had to do the honors. The dry down on this is beautiful. Where this scent initially is very cool and calming when wet, after about an hour or so it really warms up and has the most interesting composition. I can't quite put my finger on it, but it reminds me a bit of Agent Provocateur's name sake perfume on the dry down...heavenly.

^pretty much my sentiments exactly! I wanted to love it, I really did...

This was a freebie in my order and I hadn't ever read the description, so I'm quite proud of myself for picking out these notes! Upon first wet whiff, it was carnation, baby's breath, a touch of lemon and white rose...very soft and ethereal. My mother is a florist and this reminded me of all the times I sat with her at work while I was sick or off from school, it smell like a cooler full of white flowers. Right away, it turned into a giant rose bouquet. All of the subtle notes were gone and it was nothing but huge, giant, overwhelming roses. Ick. I cannot do large, sharp floral scents- they give me an instant migraine. I tried to wash it off but I can still smell it! ARGH! On someone else, maybe but this one just isn't for me. It'll go to my BFF who never buys herself anything nice + smelly

This is quite easily one of my favorites. I really must buy myself a bottle for my birthday this month (Happy Birthday to me, from me!) I am bonkers for coconut, but am easily turned off or sickened by scents that are too sweet. Instant migraine. Wet it is heavy with creamy almond, creamed coconut, and a hint of greenery. The dry-down brings a slight incense feel, a bit of sandalwood perhaps, and the coconut and almond in the background. It reminds me of laying on a beach in Maui after a day playing in the ocean; relaxing on your towel in the shade fiddling with fallen leaves, coconut husks, and such. Earthy, slightly sweet, and refreshing. LOVE!!!

Oh my gosh- the way this unfolds is crazy!!! At first it is very wet and herbally- like a damp, humid forest with decaying wood. Definitely some sandalwood going on. I kept sniffing and wondering "where is the mint?" Then all of a sudden -POW- minty goodness! Hazy, mind-altering, numbing mint! Almost antiseptic. It feels a little too cool and masculine for me to wear, but it smells amazing nonetheless!

Definitely sweet, but more floral than fruit or food. I get something floral and sticky at first, then amaretto, a hint of vanilla, and then maybe sweetpea? My mom put this on yesterday while we were in our store. We just lost my papa (her dad) and its been hard to go back to work and put on our happy selling face, so we thought this might help. Not only did it help clear the air and make us feel more positive, but a man came in not too long after we applied and spent over $600. It was pretty nuts. Edit... this reminds me a lot of Aeval, but a warmer less sharp version. It dries into a powdery, light floral on me. I don't necessarily LIKE the way it smells but every time one of us wears it, there is a buying frenzy in the store Edit Edit... this definitely gives me a raging headache, sharp florals do that to me. But, my mom loves the way it smells and works so much that we got a bottle.

This smells like an old fashion perfume to me- I get nothing sweet but lots of floral on first wet sniff, a touch of musk, and a very powdery dry down. It reminds me of something my mom once had. To me its a very classic oriental fragrance. The interesting thing is that I put this one on yesterday while working at our store, and a man came in and spent $600! Increasing financial gains is right! I'll take it!!

OH......how I love this!! In the bottle it is VERY green smelling, you can definitely pick up the almond over everything. I don't pick up much else. Its sweet, but not overwhelming, its more of a silky sweetness. On: Lush, green floral with a peek-a-boo of coconut that is accented by the almond, which is still pretty heavy. Dry: It drys to a subtle coconut scent where you catch wiffs of yourself when you move and think "oh yeah, I smell gooooood!". Its not a coconut that is generally in lotions or sunscreen, its more of a virgin coconut scent. More clean than sugary. I love to use this or Bliss to warm up something like Black Dahlia or Shoggoth.

In Bottle: Very rosey, heavy floral. Smells old fashioned and sophisticated. On Wet: Still very strong floral with some slight hints of a powdery background. On Dry: The floral has a strong staying power, but the rose definitely drops off and the scent becomes more well-rounded. Its softer, but still bright. Lasted a long time on me. This one I can only wear on occasion because its a bit too strong for my liking and has given me a head ache. But if you like a true floral that isn't sweet, you'll probably love this.

This was a freebee, and I'm SO glad that it was- I love using it to warm up other scents. It definitely smells like chocolate, but not in a juvenile/ candy sort of way. Its very sophisticated. Although its not really layered, it has such a sweet, subtle, lasting scent... In Bottle: Chocolate syrup- wet, dark, a touch sweet- maybe some nuts? On Wet: Much more buttery and creamy, but still very chocolately Dry: Much smoother and subtler, but still retains the warm top notes. I've got it- it reminds me of Nutella!
