I love gardenia. Probably one of my all time favorite floral scents. Mad Kate is luscious gardenia & a tad bit of honey & red currant on me.

I dabbed this on my wrist before I went to work this morning & have been sniffing myself all day! It's been about nine hours now.

Need to get my hands on another bottle, for sure!

I wanted to try Kinnabari because of the clay reviews. I work in the asphalt industry in a lab & am quite familiar with what clay smells like. I was excited to have a clay "dirt" scent in my possession.

Unfortunately, it didn't work one me at all. It was very weird on me actually. Almost metallic & plastic clay-like. I can't describe it correctly but it was all wrong on me. Very wrong!!

I was desperate to try Blue Phoenix. There are so few blueberry scents. Why oh why is this so?

I was able to get a hold of a decant & was initially cursing the Goddesses that I did not have a bottle of this because it was all luscious blueberries on me. But it turned into sweet tarts. Noooooooo!

Luckily or not so luckily, it turned back into the luscious blueberry I love. I was able to find a bottle from a very generous soul.

Need more blueberry scents!!!!

A kind soul sent me a decant of Oak King.

Unfortunately, it did not work on me at all. It was way too herbal medicine-y on me.

I live in NJ. I had to order a bottle regardless of what it smelled like. ..... I think I've seen the Jersey Devil too!!!

I'm not a fan of pine. In fact, I kind of hate pine BUT this works on me luckily. I think because of the cranberry. Cranberry & pine blended together nicely.

Good combo.

Harlot was a huge slap in the face for me. Made me realize that most rose scents turn soapy on me.

I bought a 10ml of it too without trying it first & accidentally broke the bottle one night. It made the room smell like old grandma perfume for quite a while.

Black lily was devastatingly horrible on me!

I poured over the reviews & since most lily scents work on me, I thought I couldn't go wrong. I was So wrong on this one. This was a decaying lily that wasn't pleasant.

So far, this is the only lily that didn't work. Sad. I really wanted to love it.

You had me at rich red grave loam!!

Penny Dreadful was the first dirt scent I fell in love with. A pretty floral dirt scent. Long lasting staying power on me but it could just be my skin chemistry. It tends to hold onto scents that last for hours.

And I love the name!!!

This is one sexy scent. Especially on men!

Red musk & spices that are a perfect combo. I love when my boyfriend wears this scent!!!

Jack was my first lab purchase ever. I saw pumpkin listed. Must have it!

I didn't get pumpkin at all but a warm buttery Autumn-y scent. I like it!

My skin chemistry is very picky but tends to love lily scents.

Lovely floral lily. Very refreshing!

Eat Me is by far, out of the GC that I wear the most! I think I'm on my third bottle. I even bought a 10 ml before they disappeared. I wish I had bought more than one bottle.

Pure yummy cake on me. Love love love it!!! I carry a bottle on me wherever I go. I can't get enough of it. I must say, it's a tad embarrassing when someone asks me what I'm wearing. I always have to add,"From Alice in Wonderland."

More please!!!

I bought a bottle of Blade of Grass for my boyfriend because he's a landscaper & thought he'd get a kick out of smelling like grass.

It does smell like grass but a tad bit soapy sometimes that is too overpowering on both of us.

I won't wear it but my boyfriend does on occasion. The name is enough to hold onto the bottle.

I love Halloween. What could go wrong with smelling like candy corn?

It is just that, candy corn on me. I love eating candy corn, so why not smell like it too!!! I bought several bottles before even trying it first. I knew it would be instant love on me.

Great job!!!

When I saw the components listed for The Shattered Pumpkin, I was over the moon. I have wanted a pumpkin & dirt scent for the longest time. I was a little worried about the pine pitch but figured it wouldn't get in the way of my first two loves.

Boy was I wrong. It completely took over & turned it into a scorched dirty(not dirt) pumpkin & I'm stretching the pumpkin part.

I'm not giving up though. Maybe over time with aging, it will turn into what I imagine would smell wonderful on me.

I died when I saw this scent. I am OBSESSED with anything pumpkin.

This is just what the name states, pumpkin cheesecake on me. Sweet sweet pumpkin cheesecake. Nothing like Pumpkin Queen at all from what other reviews claim.

I cherish my bottle!!

Oh Hellion My Hellion, How I love thee!!!

Applied on my skin, it is a gorgeous patchouli. That head shop kind of smell that I love. I can't get enough of this scent. It is by far, in the top three of my favorite scents ever. This scent lasts & lasts on me.

I tend to avoid all lemon/lime/citrus scents. I was a little apprehensive to try June Gloom 2009 but I took a chance after reading the reviews.

Thank Goddess I did!!! I love love gardenia scents & this is what I smell when applied. That & wildflowers. It's gorgeous on me! This is what I imagine walking through a field of wildflowers smells like.

Scents tend to linger on my skin. I dabbed a bit on my wrist last night right before I went to bed & I can still smell it on my skin eight hours later.

This is a keeper for sure!

From the components listed for St. John's Eve, I really thought this was a definite fit for me. Unfortunately, I think smoke/bonfire scents go wonky on my skin. Something was quite off.

Scents tend to linger on my skin for some reason. About four hours later, it finally smelled nice enough that it was tolerable. I don't know if I want to wait that long to smell good.

For some reason, my skin chemistry only likes one or two components.

This is just berry on me. Not strawberry, so the huckleberry then? Either way, it's very nice on me.

I'm a girl who loves dirt scents. This is just that, lovely lovely loam on me. It is wonderful on me!

Initially, Tomoe Gozen was all lemon on me. I hate lemon. I don't want to smell like lemon.

Drydown: OMG! It is amazing on me. Although, I'm only getting the honey & amber out of it. Which is fine.

More please!!!
