Wow. Kick in the teeth jasmine with lavender and a hint of honeysuckle and lilac. This is all-consuming. It will come for you.

This was woodsy with a hint of frankincense. I thought it was kind of non-descript, and it slighlty burned my skin.

Musty/Musky and mildly medicinal, but still very woody. I thought I'd like it better than I did.

Night flowers, sweet and pervasive. I like the rose. The smell is strong and stays with me.

Apparently lotus = aquatic on me because this is what I expected from R’lyeh. This started out mildly fruity and dark and quickly turned to the brooding, near rancid dark water aroma I pictured as the home of C'Thulhu.

 

I can't wear it because the ick-factor is STRONG, but I like it.

It's like vintage men’s cologne, sharp mint and citrus. I like it, but it's a little too lavender on my husband, and too mint-citrus on me, almost like toothpaste.

This smells like rancid bubble gum on me. I think it's the olive and hyssop combination on me.

 

This was a frimp, and I'm very depressed as this was on my wish list until I smelled it.

This smells like chai and musk. It’s wonderful in the bottle. On skin, I'm keeping the vanilla chai feeling with a definite musky undertone. I think is my new "I want a cup of hot tea, a good book, and a cold night." smell. It smells the way the word "home" feels.

 

This is gorgeous. The Renaissance in Venice is captured in this scent, particularly in the plum, rose and jasmine.

This is a beautiful scent. Warm and familiar, but exotic and mysterious at the same time. The almonds and rum amp on my skin.

 

the almonds and clove amp on my husband. Yum!

Wet: I get lots of grapefruit, grapefruit and dark ocean water.

 

Later: Erm. I'm getting evil grapefruit on my skin, fruity, dark aquatic, and I think that's a musk in there. Not bad, but not me.

 

Finally: Upon dry down and airing, I'm in love with this smell

This smells similar to the rainforest I visited in South America. I love the wet vegetation and humidity.

 

Sadly, I bought this as a gift and haven't been able to try it on my skin yet. I adore it in the bottle though.

I keep getting a weird phase that smells like the cedar chips used to line hamster cages. After an hour, it's a really sweet, rugged vanilla on me. The end product is vanilla and cedar. I like it.

 

My husband liked it with Honey Moon behind my ear. I, of course, could not smell it there.

This scent goes right through me. I can't pick out any distinct note except the dragon's blood base, but this is sharp and clear, sweet and powerful, pervasive.

This is wet, and full to the point of bursting. This scent throbs and undulates. It's fruity, then musky, but never faint.

The honeyed vanilla amps on me, and the dragon's blood provides a fruit note that makes this an absolutley delicious, slightly foody scent.

Musk, mild fruitiness, light florals. This is very sweet and sexy. I like it.

Sweet with biting aquatic notes. This borders on bitter. I like it, but I won't wear it often.

Dry and skeletal, beautiful in simplicity and style. This is sharp, sweet, woodsy and a little fruity.

Sweet and powerful, a little soapy/fruity on me. I loved this in the imp, but on my skin, it's not as nice as other dragon's blood resins on me. I like it, but I don't love it.

The smoke and leather with dragon’s blood is exactly what I expected a dragon’s den to smell like.

 

Sadly, my husband's heraldic device is a dragon and it smells... off on him. Not awful, just not good, much less anything quite like any of its notes are supposed to.

On my husband, the grassy woodsy nature of the oil comes out. I get hints of the leather and opponax, but in general, he smells fresh.

 

On me, I smell like I've been running through and rolling in the woods. Almost all I get are plant-based smells. After a long time, I get a faint hint of leather.

Flame, sweat, a bit of petrol underneath.

 

I like this as a concept scent, but not on me. It burns my skin a little.

I hoped for more and was disappointed. I got a bit of the cold air, ozone smell, but it generally smelled like a mix of Preferred Stock cologne and China Rain on me.

I got lots of ozone, but little actual storm scent.

Sweet, but not great on me. I picked up at least one honey and some floral, but the lunar oils go powdery on me. This really just smelled like honey bath powder.
