    White Rabbit

    Take my thoughts with a grain of salt, I'm training my nose to pull these scents out. It's fun, but I may not be the best reviewer! From this one, on my skin, I am not catching the black tea, very much, at least I don't think I am. I'm getting a very sharp scent, which I think is the clean linen, with a bite that I believe is the white pepper. The scent feels very 'clean' to me. I've worn it only twice, but I've yet to notice any 'sour milk' notes to it, though my skin might just like it. I'd think of the milk notes as something that would tame down a scent, but for me this is not very tame, but it is very nice. On the dry down I get more of the clean linen happening, which I quite enjoy, but the pepper note comes out more. What I _don'_ get is any honey or vanilla whatsoever, which makes me sad, because I love them and they work well with me, I guess I'm just naturally sweet and my skin ate those notes... I like this scent, its jumpy and befuddled, but adorable just the same. Edit: About 50 minutes after application I am now getting a nice note of honey from this oil, which makes me enjoy it all the more. It also makes me excited for my imp of Dirty, which is in the mail, and sounds like it has all those clean linen notes I'm enjoying in this one.

    Searching for the Perfect Vanilla?

    I have just the thing for you. Eat Me!! It is sooooooo good. I'm pretty new at scenting but I'm in love with it's warm mix of vanilla, cake and currant (although lots say they don't get the currant). But it is just wonderful and I could wear it every day.

    Dragon's Reverie

    Still new at this...but I'm trying to get my sniffer up to snuff, as it were... This is the second Dragons Blood based scent I've tried and I officially love Dragons Blood and I think it is a fan of my skin chemistry... In the bottle this is sweet and sharp, and smells...reddish purple, if that makes sense. On my skin the sweet tones down and the floral is more prominent, I'm thinking this is the ylang-ylang? Still sharp though. On dry down it's still sharp, but the dragons blood has changed to a more resinous scent, with the sharpness lingering through. May have to buy a bottle of this one, I already got a bottle of Dragon's Milk, which I adore, so I think I may find the whole line alluring... But...after wearing it for a bit, 2-3 hours the scent is almost completely gone. I reapplied, but I was sad. Dragon's Milk is very much the winner in this battle.

    Sexy, heady, incensey recs?

    I love Shub-Niggurath...but I don't get incense from it, must be my nose. For lovely and dark incense my favorite I've found so far is Kabuki.
