    Lucy's Kiss

    Lucy’s Kiss: Rose…similar to Old London, but not as pale and cold. There is something warm underneath. Innocent, but a bit sad….or confused. Lost. As it dries, it gets more powdery….I like that…I was afraid it would get colder but it continues to get warmer. I like it very much, but I don't think it's me enough to buy a bottle of....I'll probably finish the imp though.

    Ophelia

    Ever since playing Ophelia in college I've been obsessed with her.....so of course this had to be in my first purchase. I'm so glad it lived up to my hopes and expectations. Sweet and innocent smelling…Watery and green for a floral. It smells to me quite a bit like my avatar might. I smell rose, but it’s actually a rose that smells like something I’d wear….very rare indeed! Spring. Definitely a great Spring scent. Subtle and quiet, but bright. It's so beautiful and hubby likes it to. This is how I imagine Ophelia would have been remembered, beautiful, gentle, and sweet. On a sad note, it dies much too quickly....but then again, so did poor sweet Ophelia. I LOVE IT! Big Bottle please!

    Dana O'Shee

    Wet: The words OH MY GOD! Actually escaped my lips when I first smelled this. Almond is my favorite scent in the whole world (though I haven’t been able to find one that isn’t cloying yet) and this screamed Almond to me. YUM and YIPPY! Dry: Wow! It smells like my skin, but just sweeter and more lovely. The almond scent has calmed way down , but has left me smelling beautiful. Kind of the way I WISH my skin smelled. I can barely smell it, but it’s there making me more interesting. UGH! I CAN’T BUY BOTTLES OF THEM ALL! I’ll go broke.

    Snake Oil

    Wet~ This is divine! Soft and gentle smelling and so yummy. Definitely foody, but not in an obvious way. Even though it’s foody, it doesn’t really smell like something you eat. On: The smell hasn’t changed much at all after I applied it. It still smells very delicious! If it keeps this up I will definitely have to purchase a big bottle of this. I don’t smell the play dough scent, however I like the way play dough smells, so even if it’s there I’m bound not to notice. Dry: It has gotten much more spicy on me. Much warmer I like it a lot. I might add my Dana O'Shee to it....I think they may compliment eachother nicely. Big bottle of this one for me.

    Allergy Questions, Allergies and other reactions to oils

    You could wear a scent diffusing locket so the oil won't actually touch your skin.

    London

    I was hoping I'd love it, but it just smelled like bug spray to me. A nice rosy bug spray, but bug spray none the less. My hunt for the perfect rose scent continues.

    Phobos

    In the bottle....Lemon Pledge. First on....Lemon Heads Candy Dry Down....Lemon Heads Candy rolled in baby powder. This one just kept making me giggle. I really enjoyed the smell of Lemon Heads, but it's just not for me.

    Bordello

    OH MY GOD! I LOVE IT! ok....it simply smells divine. With the first sniff I thought...I know that smell, what is that smell....something from Middle School....sniff, sniff, sniff, Oh yeah....that clear roll-on strawberry lipgloss I used to wear. YUM! What could be better than that? The smell of it on my skin. It warmed up a lot on and became velvety and so smooth. As it dried/aged....I noticed a bit of that incense mentioned in one of the earlier posts. But only a tiny bit....way in the background. I don't much like incense scents, but this is so slight that it didn't bother me in the slightest. OK, to sum up. Yum...Me Like! ETA: Hubby thought it smelled like something a stripper would wear. Oh well.....SWAP!

    Rosalind

    Crisp and Green! That's what immediately came to mind when I sniffed this stuff wet. I love love love the way this smells wet. As it dried, it became much more subtle and lost some of the initial crispness...but kept the green...and the floral notes became more aparent. As the others mentioned, it doesn't last long so I'll likely use this with my diffuser pendant since scents seem to last longer and retain their wet smell for me that way. A keeper!

    Love Me

    Love Me is an interesting scent. On first application it is sweet and I sense cinnamon underneath...something spicy and warm and...well...like incense (but not heavily). As it dries, I feel more and more like I smell like a New Age store. When dried completely it reminded me of a solid perfume I once had...however I don't remember what the scent of that was. I really enjoyed this scent...but alas, my husband said he doesn't like it...so I won't be purchasing a bottle of this one.
