  1. This on me is warm, comfy, caramel goodness that stays pretty true on drydown. fell in love with it upon 1st sniff, and am hesitating using it, because I tend to slather and ONLY :P have the one bottle-thank goodness it is GC!


  2. have gone through half a bottle in less than a week-grape soda that is mysterious-i must get more,dont smell honey,more like sunflower and grape with a spicy sweet yum for the tum

    i getgrape soda from tum-or the kind of grape chewing gum I liked whe n I was a little kidlet...never knew I liked grape stuff so much-so if it would only be a bit warmer so I can use my beloved Tum now-umplease !


  3. A tribute to the opium den cum bawdyhouses of Shanghai in the 1930s. Golden amber, blonde tobacco, Sudanese black coconut, rich caramel, black currant, white opium and delphinium laced with a sensual blend of Asian spice.


    it was my first FAVORITE and i had to search to find more.Other peeps have said dirty ashtray, but on me, I think cherry coke!
    with a little bit of fizz, and caramel on the backburner coming out after an hour.one of the things I like is its mellow cherry coke with caramel!, also its jackets with elbow patches too (to me)

  4. just reading about Misk U makes me drool :P it is such a warm, comforting, wrap the comforter around you and read good books scent. the caramel is not overpowering to me at least, and the coffee comes through like a rich after dinner coffee after a satifying meal with good company and conversation.

    I had this (and loved it)even before Bonfire Night, and ow I love it-am glad its GC-the coffee smell isterrific-I tend to slather and forget about it,but it definitely has throw-so perhaps I ought to use a little less-its buttery in a good way, and caramel and coffee(not burntwarm and cozy and a good library scent)


  5. On July 23rd, let it be known that Madame carwoman believes she has set a new record for going through most of a bottle. This afternoon it arrived in mailbox. SHe quickly squeed, attached the "saver"cap so kindly provided per her request, and proceeded to dab on her wrist before getting into her chariot for her commute to town. She already had applied DRINK ME in the morning...

     

    first impressions-sweet chocolate-Hershey bar cocoa with some gingernut goodness creeping in, but an hour later scent was very faint. Maybe this is something similar to when I eat something I shouldnt the pleasure is mighty but fleeting?

    Later in the day she applied more, because she liked it so much the first dab.Who wouldnt want to smell like a wonderful gingery chocolate confection. Applied more while I was at the movies, watching Wizard of Oz and The Princess Bride(a perfect day , movies and new BPAL)

     

    Nobody in the row turned around at my newly applied scent; and it mingled well with my buttered popcorn.

    Then it was gone again.

    Bedtime=now-I wanted to apply it again, and looked at bottle; only to realize that I have clearly gone through at least a third of the bottle since this afternoon. so apparently I must be a super slathere.I love the scent; but wish it hung around longer. I just dabbed it on pulse points (really) dont think it leaked,and had no idea had run through this much!!! Stay longer, my little cocoa ginger love!

    goodbye 13-my bottle is gone now after just a few days; the scent just slithered away on me within a half hour, so I kept trying it again and again, and while it smelled good at first, am afraid it had NO throw on me, so I used it all up in hopes something would change(have never gone through full bottle before in less than a month)

     

    bye bye 13:(


  6. In the vial it is sweet smelling ladyness or something:I imagine walking down a street with a parasol feeling feminine.On me-I even slather,and I'm outside and wondering where it has gone. It seems to have disappeared, so despite the luscious in the bottle scent, it doesnt seem to linger on me enough.Hopefully it will linger on someone else>


  7. Bastet was I believeone of the many imps the lab included with my order, and I was hoping for something warm to wear while I drift off to dreamland. I think this is it. the spiciness is really enchanting, ...so many imps left to try in my ammo box, but this might be worth ordering a bottle.

     

    However, after an hour or so, it seems like it's disappeared from me unless my wrist is permanently attached to my nose:)

     

    Am getting a whiff of amber-not too strong-good good dont know about cherry-just a soft glow sexy kind of scent. I might have to get a bottle cause this imp will go quickly.I love the spiciness,and will reappy and resniff.Thumbs up!


  8. enraged bunny musk-

     

    In the imp it smelled sweet yet strong, very perfumy-kind of old fashioned. I could imagine a grande dame wearing this. On me, it's very very strong, so not an everyday scent; there is musky spice, and I wanted it to be a scent I could wear, but on me after about half an hour it morphs into] what I imagine is the interior of a handbag (a very elegant one) that's been in storage for a while worn by a much dressier elegant woman than I can seem to be. q

     

    :P

    I really wanted you to be a keeper, but I feel like I'm enveloped by something screaming at me "MUSK MUSK MUSK PERFUME "at the top of its little imps lungs.Oh well, there are so many more to try :D


  9. was this from the lab-a forum sale-my collection is growing :P

    in the bottle it smelled light,wasn't sure what it was,bit decided would be ok for a summer day,not too overpowering.Then it morphed into a strong memory of high school in 1971 and Golden Gate Park(the sandalwood).And several hours later sniffed wrist while at a stoplight,and it was still there.

     

    Dont know whether I would order a 5ml,and it doesnt scream favorite at me, but it's a nice,earthy, scent memory.


  10. I just dabbed on more of this from the frimp I received from Merf along with my red lantern purchase. Even though it's finally summer, this is a welcome kind of warmth; cherry vanilla, but not sickly sweet. I shall have to give it more time, and I think this is one of the ones I'll wear just for me(perhaps I'm a slatherer) but I really like the warmth of the cherry and the wine like flavor.Yum-may have to order the whole 5ml.
