Goddess of phantoms and of shadowy play, whose drowsy pow’r divides the nat’ral day: ink-black opoponax absolute, glittering amber, caramelized oud, black styrax, and Oman frankincense.

Fuel and fire for speaking out against injustice: a heap of warm spiced funnel cakes with a scoop of coffee ice cream. Proceeds from this scent will be donated to the American Civil Liberties Union. To learn about how the ACLU will be challenging Trump’s agendas in court, visit them here. Note: If you are confused, the original scent description on the website said cinnamon ice cream. It was mentioned that this was an error and that it should actually be coffee ice cream in a live sniff on Thanksgiving.

Chase away the sads with a sip from a cheery snowglobe filled with slushy grenadine and lemon-lime soda, topped with a maraschino cherry and illuminated from within by 40 watts of glowing amber.

Crimson silk, burnished gold, cavernous oud, spilled ink on yellowed vellum, bone dust, myrrh smoke, and scythe iron. Juan de Valdés Leal

Crimson and ash-green velvet, leatherbound books, a scattering of ink-dribbled papers, beeswax, dried flowers, faded pipe smoke, mahogany, and oak suffused with warm beams of golden amber and dusted with pale sandalwood. Nelson Shanks

Beaver Moon: Blackberry and Tobacco Absolute

Blackberry and Tobacco Absolute. -
Memories of my lifetime in Los Angeles are entwined with California poppies and lupine. In late winter, the hills near my home would be covered with swaths of orange and lilac—of sunbeams and the shadowed colors of dusk. Then in spring it would all die away as quickly as it appeared. When I first moved to Philadelphia, I brought a ton of seeds with me so I could start a small California garden and bring a little of my state’s magic with me. King mandarin, orange, coconut, lilac blossoms, lavender tar, and amber musk.

A sugar-crusted vanilla peppermint stick!

Sandalwood & White Plum.

This is a very realistic lipstick scent. It has the waxy, creamy texture of old lipstick as well as the floral component (I think it's orris?) nailed down, with just a hint of clove to goth it up. While it's too realistic to be wearable for me, I'm in awe of Beth's artistry.

Black cherry and smoked plum resins, saffron and sweet labdanum, sensual tuberose, blackened patchouli, myrrh smoke, crimson iris, and scarlet musk. Franz Von Stuck

Fear and fascination: blackened vetiver, amber smoke, clove, and oudh. …It was a sooty-black animal that resembled a monstrous cat. It appeared to me about four or five feet long for it measured fully the length of the hearthrug as it passed over it; and it continued to-ing and fro-ing with the lithe, sinister restlessness of a beast in a cage. I could not cry out, although as you may suppose, I was terrified.

White sandalwood, orris root, ambergris, vetiver root, cardamom, white cedar, and black pepper. Andrew Wyeth

No reviews yet!? Time to remedy that! This features an incense-y dragon's blood (not the spicy floral variety that's wonky on me) with lots of lavender and hops. I think it is relaxing. I slather this before bed sometimes and forgot there was fir in this -- I haven't noticed it, but next time I slather it, I'll have to see if I can pick it out. I decided to risk a bottle of this when the 2024 Dragoncon exclusives were up on the website, and I'm so glad I did! It's one of my favorite Con exclusives from the past few years. I may have to try to track down a back-up bottle!

Whatever your preferred term for this eye-catching bodega snack, its iconic design undeniably lingers in the backdrop of core New York memories. A simple, jumbo-sized treat, it unifies by transcending differences to mostly taste all like one thing!

On me, this is mostly a lightly chocolate-glazed cookie (because only half of the cookie is glazed in chocolate and it's not as strong as if it were like, dipped in straight-up chocolate) with an almondy note in the sugar cookie base. I like it, but I don't need more than my decant.

This is a light peach scent on me, backed by some coconut milk. Despite this having sticky rice in the name, the rice component is pretty fleeting on me.

I do get the sun-warmed red apples from this, but the apple note with the wildflower note veers into shampoo territory. I've tried this a few times, and it used to be more wildflower-forward when the decant arrived, but it's a little more balanced after a couple of months (but like I said, somewhat reminiscent of apple shampoo). I don't dislike this, but it wasn't the apple win that I thought it would be. Apple Vulva Hair Gloss and the Harvest Moon: Apple and Oats duet were my apples of 2024.

This is all about the silk and skin musk on me, backed by a little bit of amber. I was here for the coffee bean, but it is very fleeting on me. It's too perfume-y to my nose, but maybe that's just my skin running away with the silk? I wish I had had a more coffee-forward experience like some of the other reviewers.
