Ahhhh, Ophelia is a sharp affront to my nasal passages! Slightly bitter and green, it reminds me a bit of bic pen ink - oddly.

Skin musk and honey, blood-red rose, orange blossom, white peach, red apple, frankincense and myrrh. Oh, I am so in love with Les Bijoux! I thought I might like it because of all of the delicious notes listed, but I am blow away... Les Bijoux is the perfect blend of blossoms, fruits, and musks. Sexy and soft, a cozy, warm fragrance.

This is buttery almonds to my nose. Too sugary and creamy. It smells so different in the imp and then on my skin. Slowly some gentle spices creep out. I'm not in love, but it's ok.

What a beautiful, green, lush and resinous rose! I'm usually not one for rosey scents, but the moss and incense loosen the rose up a bit and add a charming touch. This scent is definately a unisex one, and I feel that it would be ever so sexy on a man. Yum!

To my sniffer Dr. John Seward is a light floral blend, contradicting the notes that are listed. It must be the Champaca that takes over the ginger and white pepper. I had thought it would be a spicier blend, alas, tonka comes along and proves me wrong. Not quite for me, though I do have a soft spot in my heart for the dear doctor, because I enjoy champaca.

I get a pretzel note from this one - maybe it's the cakes and the incense combined. I have mixed feelings. I like it, but there's something off about it to me. There's a very woody base note that blooms after some time and mellows the sweet note down. I don't think I'd repurchase, but I'll hang onto my bottle.

Beautiful incense and floral blend. I don't get much of the sweets, but I can tell that there's a dusting of them in the fragrance. It's haunting and playful at the same time. I love incense!!! Definately pleased with myself for picking this one up!

Some ripe cherry filling stolen right from her tarts! It's full of sugared berry sweetness....my teeth are aching.

Aquatic notes blended with some subtle berries. A drop of marzipan and some cherry blossoms - a bit too much going on here for me.

A beautiful musk blend. It's lightly floral, and not overpowering. Perfect.

Faint violets and baby roses. Maybe an almond drop. Not quite for me...

Green, yet perfumey. A pungent, herbal mix with a jasmine ending.

Ugh - smells like chemicals mixed with an orange lily.

Citrus flowers - drop of lilac - kiss of berry.

Wow! This isn't something I'd wear, but it evoked a memory response. My lovely, since passed, Irish grandmother would mix Palmolive liquid soap with some water to make me homemade bubblestuff. She'd do this in the lazy summertime when I was little, as a way for me to run around the yard and blow bubbles to my heart's content. The first sniff reminded me of that...

Crazy cherry and ragin' roses. Nice, bold.

Lime juice and possibly some iris or wisteria blooming on my skin. It's cool and a bit aquatic.

Lemon, strawberry, and perhaps some peach blossom. To me, there's also a lily or two mixed in with some grass. It's pretty and familiar. ADDED Feb. 27: Very soft aquatic scent and very familiar for some reason. I can't place the sweet, clean aroma, but I'm thinking it reminds me of a beauty product - something from Avon from my childhood. A face cream. I think there's a cucumber note that I love in here. Just for the clean, herbal, cucumbery scent memory, I may need a 5ml of this lovely.

All that appears on my skin is mocking florals - jasmine, violets, and roses.

Orange, dragon's blood, and maybe a type of sandalwood and cocoa. I'm reminded of CSP Amore de Cacao. Yum, sexy!

A clean, slightly herbal, evening blend. A bit ozonic with some jasmine.

A light peachy sniffie. I cannot really detect anything else.

Ah!!!! Poisoned pine trees. Perhaps some myrrh, smokey leather, BBQ....ugh!

Pink bubblegum - the kind that's hard like Bazooka Joe's - with powdered sugar on the outside. There's a light perfume lingering in the background.

Pink bubblegum and orange lollipops. A dash of creamy vanilla accord swirled in. Delish!
