  1. The main reason I bought this scent is because my daughter's name is Agnes. None of the notes in it are something that I would normally like but I never seen her name on anything.

     

    Anyhoo, it smells exactly like the description. It is is amazing! The smoke reminds me of sitting at a campfire while holding sparklers.

     

    This may not get a lot of wear but it could be a really nice winter room scent.


  2. Selkie is warm, beachy sea grass, rocky points, sand, sunshine, and honey. I swear to god it smells like Ireland.

     

    It smells like Inis Mor. More specifically, the beach where the seals live and where some of The Secret of Roan Inish was filmed. It smelled SO good there.

     

    I had my husband smell Selkie and before I could say anything he said "Wow, that smells like Inis Mor." LOL


  3. In the bottle: This is a strong floral. Extremely feminine.

     

    Wet: It is also has a "pink" aspect to it. When I put it on I smelled "pink".

     

    Drydown: Kind of a mossy, green, aquatic scent.

     

     

    Hmmm, I am going to have to try this one a few times.

     

    edit: Lydia has turned into stale ribbon candy dishsoap. I am so sad this didn't work on me. I guess I will put it away and try it again in the future. :P


  4. Sundew is quickly becoming a favorite.

     

    It smells of summer to me. It smells like the beach. Hot white sand and surf. Maybe a hint of suntan lotion. Not the coconut kind but more like Ban de Soleil.

     

    I could slather myself in Sundew everyday and be a very happy girl!!

     

     

    A 10ml or two will definitely be ordered.


  5. This scent is absolutely perfect.

     

    I have been to Indonesia, Snake Oil reminds me of this weird "ice cream" dessert I had while on Bali. I can almost taste it when I wear Snake Oil. It is a gritty sugary vanilla dream. That is the only way I can describe it.


  6. Midway is absolutely amazing. I have no idea how Beth does it!

     

    In the bottle: Cotton Candy

     

    Wet: Still smells like cotton candy but with something richer underneath.

     

    Dry: My wrist smells like powdered sugar and butter. DELISH!!!

     

     

    My baby, Agnes, loves Midway. I put the bottle under her nose and she started to lick her lips. When I took the bottle away she started screaming. If Agnes likes it Midway must be good!


  7. The Sun is the perfect beach scent.

     

    It is warm, comforting, and I swear you can feel the sun on your shoulders when you wear it. The first time I wore it I could close my eyes and see my perfect beach on Bali. It is a golden sunset.

     

    I will be buying a bottle of this.


  8. This is one of the very first scents I received and it is GORGEOUS!

     

    I usually hate patchouli, but this is different. It is such an amazing scent. The ginger, fig, patchouli, and rose are perfectly balanced.

     

    It is the kind of scent that will get you noticed.


  9. Mmmmm, Sugar Cookie.

     

    It is a mix between Sugar Skull and Egg Nog. It reminds me of my mother's sugar cookies that she make every holiday season.

     

    It is a strong scent so you don't need to put very much on. It lasts almost all day on me.


  10. Sugar Skull is absolute perfection to me.

     

    In the bottle, wet, and dry it smells like burning sugar. It is nice, warm, and sweet. It smells like the panadería I went into everyday while in Guatemala.

     

     

    I am really sad I didn't get more than one bottle. Hopefully next Autumn will bring more Sugar Skull my way.

     

    Thank you for this scent! :P :D :D


  11. I was so excited when I sniffed this the first time. Coconut...mmmm...

     

    The coconut scent stayed for a long time. After the coconut fades (about 2 hours later) it started to smell salty. It is a definite beach scent.

     

    Wouldn't buy a big bottle but it will be nice to wear this summer.


  12. I wasn't sure if I would like any of the Ars Draconis scents, but this is beautiful. It was received as a frimp and I intend on buying a bottle of it.

     

    It is salty and sweet. It starts out strong and fades slowly into almost a floral seaweed (I am sure floral seaweed doesn't exsit but if it did it would smell like this).

     

     

     

    The scent lasts forever on me. I highly suggest this scent!

    :P


  13. In the Bottle: Smells like homemade buttercream frosting. Mmm.....very sweet. Makes me want something salty!

     

    Wet: Still smells like buttercream, but a little stronger. Maybe if almond extract was added to the frosting.

     

    Dry: On me there is the slightest hint of cinnamon and coconut. It smells like a really yummy cupcake.

     

    I think I need to go make a batch of homemade coconut cupcakes!! :P
