Favourite scents: Talvikuu, Fallen, Kumiho.
Notes I like: Aquatic, fresh, crisp/sharp, some white florals, 'cold', woody, some fruits, earthy if it's not dry, musks. The less sweet/cloying of the spicy notes, eg. ginger. White tea. I tend to enjoy amost any blend with a fresh element and lots of personality.
I don't get on with: Pretty, polite and feminine perfumes (eg Zephyr); "hello I'm a normal person" scents (eg. High John the Conqueror); very dry scents (eg Crossroads); heavily incensey scents (Crossroads again; they make my head ache :-) ); anything that's very sweet and thick, like classic perfumery spicy/Oriental scents or sweet-smoky blends.

I found that Vechernyaya *reminded* me of Opium - it had the same kind of mood - although I don't think it necessarily smells very similar. Personally I find Opium a bit overpowering, and Vechernyaya slightly lighter.
