This actually reminded me a lot of the White Peach and Incense hair gloss (which I lurve) but with a hint of cherry. I think out of all my Luper decants this will be the only one that I'll get a bottle of. Yay!

Wet, it was kind of an astringent pine to me with some woody/cedar notes. Now that it's drying down, I can smell more of the cedar. Not unpleasant, but not for me.

Wet, it smells a lot like Pine-Sol (which I like lol) and something lightly aquatic/ozone. As it dries, the pine and snow notes mellow out and the flowers start coming out to play. Everything starts melding in a really nice scent. Wasn't sure about this one at first, but will most likely try to seek out at least a partial bottle. Not bad!

This started off smelling like a fruity baby powder until something smokey started showing up. After a few minutes, it's almost all brimstone... a little too much brimstone. After about 10 minutes, the brimstone is still present, but the baby powder has come back to the foreground. Not sure if I need a big bottle of this, but my imp will be staying put... for now.

(The Cheesecake Version) I was SO close to putting this bottle up for sale. lol When I put it on, it was like a bitter lavender with WAY TOO MUCH honey. Blech! So I would was it off. Then today, before going for a walk, I decided to try it again and damn... waiting for the drydown is TOTALLY worth it. As it drys down, the lavender and honey give way to the cheesecake scent and O.M.G. - if I could lick it up I would. lol This is my first encounter with BPAL's cheesecake note... and I love it! And the longer I wear it, the better it gets. It stays close to my skin, but I barely put any on so I'm assuming it has decent throw. Just awesomeness. This bottle, it stays with ME! heh heh

Of the LMG scents that I've tried, this is by far my favorite! I LOVE that it smells a little fabric softener-y. If anyone is familiar with the fabric softener Suavitel, it smells a lot like that to me. Very delicate and clean... I think I see a big bottle of this in my future.

An itch that needs to be scratched: Snake Oil and three types of honey. I was generously gifted a tester of the 2010 version of this and I loooove it! It smells like a Snake Oil powder on me. I like Snake Oil, but I like this so much more! I feel like this cuts some of the incense that tends to be a little overpowering to me with SO. Although, I asked my mom if she liked it on me and she said, "Ewwww." LOL I asked her if it smelled like ass and she said, "I don't know, I just don't like how it smells." Too bad for her though, because I'll be on the look out to get a bottle of this in the future!

I was generously frimped an imp of Snow White 2010 and I was so excited to see what all the fuss was about. Outside of the imp: Smelled SOOO good! I couldn't wait to try it out. In the imp: Burned doll rubber with a hint of almond and sweetness. Maybe the rubber smell will go away after I apply it? Wet on skin: ^ See above, with the added feeling of utter disappointment. Dry (an hour later): I still get that rubber smell though it has lightened up a bit (but definitely takes center stage nonetheless). Under the rubber smell though is a really nice sweet, floral-y almondy scent, similar to what I smelled on the outside of the imp. If the rubber wasn't there I would TOTALLY be in love with Snow White. Conclusion: Not sure what went wrong... this has been aged so I'm bummed. Maybe the 2011 version will be better? Or maybe Snow White and I just weren't meant to be. lol

Wet: Pine-sol with a small hint of candy... in a good way. lol As it dries: The pine starts fading into the background and the cotton candy and wildflowers really take over the scent! It's very sweet, but not tooth-achingly so. I like it, and would consider getting a bottle in the future.

In the bottle, Autumn Cider made me wanna take a swig of my decant! lol It was exactly what I expected it to be. On me, all I smelled was cinnamon, with small hints of orange and apple. Someone here mentioned a craft shop, and that's exactly what I smelled like as it dried down. I'm hoping that a little aging will tone down the cinnamon because if it weren't so strong I know this one would be a winner for me. (10/18) Okay, so I tried this one again (and again) and it's growing on me. The cinnamon still stings (seriously, don't put it on RIGHT after you shower lol) and is still strong, but as it dries down it gives the apples a chance to shine through. Really nice. (11/12) So tell me how this ended up being my favorite of the 'Weenies I was able to try? So much so that I ended up getting a bottle! Go figure. I love it!

On first application, this is a very juicy green apple, which I loved. And then as quickly as it came, it went and I got mostly pomegranate with some strawberry and a hint of tea rose in the background. I had a similar experience as London in that this also went very Persephone on me. It's very pretty, but I kinda wish the apple would have stuck around a bit more. Not sure if I would invest in a bottle, but I'll definitely be keeping my decant.
