  1. A salacious, lecherous, leering scent - dirty and dark, slapped with a wet sweetness. Earthy black patchouli swelling with apricot.


    I love this scent. I actually wore it by accident; I opened the imp and got some on my fingers in the process. I was initiallyl hesitant about it because I do NOT like patchouli... it makes me nauseous. But after sniffing this for a bit, I realized my past encounters with patchouli were when it was being used to cover up pot smoke - and I'm allergic to pot.

    So, I sniffed this for a while on my fingers, loving the earth and apricot and the way they fuzed, and decided to take it for a spin today. I actually got decent throw! My skin tends to eat scents for breakfast, but this one was still noticeable after 6 hours or so.

    I truly love the earthy smell to this, and have discovered I tentatively like patchouli. The apricot sweetened it all up, but not too much... I didn't get attacked by my friend's sweet-toothed dog, at least! :D

    Definite wear again, maybe get more.

    I absolutely love this scent. It smells like an orchard at night on me, and is perfect for warm weather. I picture a couple meeting in the orchard, gettin' dirty, and laying together afterward, just breathing, before they have to get dressed and go to their separate houses.

    Sadly, I lost my imp, so I must order a bottle. Oh darn. :P

  2. I wasn't sure about this one, since the one experience I've had with Dragon's Blood gave me a headache. Straight from the imp, though, I really liked this. I decided to wear it to Pagan Pride Day, since it was all outside and none of these scents were likely to get me stung by bees. :P

     

    On me, it was dark and smoky and lovely. Unfortunately, it tended to fade fast, and I had to reapply several times during the day. Maybe I'll try figuring out how to layer it so it has more throw. In any case, I really liked it, and I might spring for a bottle. I certainly won't be giving this one away until I have more. :D


  3. Eat Me has, unfortunately, underwhelmed me. It's almost too sweet, even on drydown. Could be the currants... I don't really smell the cakes. It seems to have a lot of throw, though that's not unusual for my skin. I'm afraid I'll have to wash it off before it gives me a headache. :D I wanted to love it... I'll hold on to it and see if I like it better later.

     

    ETA: Silly me, forgetting about aging on skin. :D Now it smells like white cake and jellybeans, and while the overall impression is 'innocent', there's some sort of darkly playful undercurrent. Much, much better.

     

    I want to wear this tomorrow, when I'll be out in public and can shock people with the name. *evil grin* Then again, considering where I'm going, some might take that as invitation, and I don't need that. I'll stick with what I had planned. :P


  4. *whimper*

     

    My imp of O got beheaded, so I figured, why not try it and save the bit of oil that was on the wand?

     

    I found out why not. Nearly the instant I put it on, it went powdery. I blame the amber, I think. I'm unsure whether it will get annoying or not, but it's definitely not sexy or defiled. :P

     

    Will edit when it's aged on my skin.

    O and I are a bad match. I'll be finding someone to enable with this. Unfortunately, everyone I've tried it on so far has not liked it.
