  1. NOISOME CLOCKWORK TIN LOCOMOTIVE
    A clamorous collision of scents: wormwood, rum, star anise, vanilla, cognac, peppermint, and green tea with smoke fluid and lubricant.


    At first, you can tell there is mint in this one. But with all mint scents, you have to wait for the top notes to pass before you can get the true personality of the scent.

    Now that it is dry I can detect the green tea, wormwood and rum....just a hint of vanilla. Not a lot of smoke.
    Very wearable. I could see wearing this to work without it bothering anyone.

    OMG, I want to hoard multiple bottles of this and wear it all winter. I just love it. My fave of the 4 that I got.But I must add that I LOVE anything anise/wormwood. If you do too, you need to get your paws on this one!!

  2. MONSIEUR PETITBLED'S FRIVOLOUS WHEELED FOOTWEAR
    Really, really reckless: red currant, fig, leather, and patchouli with clove bud, orange flower, and pink pepper.


    I am first....pressure. :)

    Out of all the scents, this was the one I wanted the most.
    It sounds like a sexy scent. I was only worried that the clove would be too strong.

    When first applied I got a blast of red currant and that hint of clove. This clove is not too strong at all!
    I have had it one for 40 minutes now and I get more of the labs patchouli note and some leather....still very "red" in personality. I do not detect any orange flower.

    Overall, RED, warm, Sexy: Keeper!

  3. I just applied this to my arm about 30 minutes ago, so this is the "fresh" state.

     

    At first I get a blast of milk chocolate with berries. I do not get a the tea note that I pictured in my head. That note is much softer. Must be a mellow tea.

    After the first blast of berry/chocolate it turns into a creamy cozy light musk.

     

    I love this scent. It's very comforting.


  4. Got my bottle today. I must admit, I was not even going to buy this one because I was unsure of the notes. But I got all excited and got it anyway.

     

    I am so happy I did. It's a very wearable scent. to me it smells like herbs and cinnamon and fire (without the smoke). Well blended and interesting. It does not really remind me of anything else.

     

    Keeper!


  5. This is the Monster Bait: Tokyo Stomp meets Monster Bait: Ventriloquist Dummy scent.

     

    Sniffing the imp, it's minty chocolate yummyness.

     

    Wet on the skin, Girl Scout Thin Mints with a dash of wood.

     

    As it dries, cedar note gets a little stronger. Once fully dry the cedar note is balanced with the chocolate peppermint which keeps this scent from going too foody.

     

    I love the scent, but I have a LOT of chocolate scents, so I may be just hanging onto the imp and not pursuing a full bottle.

     

    Your description was SPOT on!

     


  6. I was expecting baby powder and I what i got was a total treat.

    It's more like the Burt's Bees version of baby products. Light, fresh, and clean.

    This would make an excellent everyday scent. I totally want another bottle.


  7. I am so happy this came today. I was lucky enough to test the original version and this one is very different to me.

    05 (that is the year right?) was 100% Strawberry Shortcake plastic doll head. It was good because it brought me that nostalgia.

     

    Now 2009 is a fresh still on the vine strawberry. More green and natural.

     

    Out of the 2 I think I like the original a little better because I am all about artificial sweet in my preference. But this is a great moon indeed.


  8. Interesting mix. I do get a margarita vibe and jasmine, lemon and herbs. If I had to compare it to a traditional perfume it is a lot like Coney Island from Bond #9 but with Jasmine.

     

    want to see how it ages. But my first impression is good.

     

    I also LOVE the bottle art. Super cute!!


  9. I have each of the velvets on my arms now. This one is in my top 4. It's really nice.

    I get more of a red licorice vibe than black. A little peanut and little salt and sugar. YUMMMMM

    To me it does not really smell like Midway. The notes are more individual.

    The only thing I do not like is the clown himself (fear since childhood) but I am going to fight it and still get a bottle or two!!

     

     


  10. mine is CTV: Snake Oil XV . I got this one second hand and it was described as "Strong notes of Cherry and Whiskey, followed by smooth SO spice"

    I wanted it because of the Cherry note and got it. I was scared on the Whiskey note being too strong. Much to my surprise its pretty much just SO with a warm red cherry vibe to it. I could not ask for a better CT at all!!
