This is lovely! A beautiful peach scent for spring. It’s definitely white peach—kinda nectarine-ish and not super ripe. The honey and cream are not overwhelming or cloying—they lend a sort of nectar sweetness. At times I get a whiff of something that is almost bubblegummy. Beautiful.

Whoa. This was not on my radar at all because I don’t love liqueurs, but I sniffed one of the bottles I picked up for my decant circle and it’s really gorgeous. It smells like high dollar chocolate. It’s smooth but also has that “bite” that fancy cacao often has. It’s mostly rich, dark, and fudgey. I don’t really get a lot of the liqueur, but if I think about it I can smell a thread of syrupy sweetness tying the whole thing together. If you like rich chocolate scents, I highly recommend this one. I imagine it will be like bathing in a vat of the real thing!

[No additional description provided.] This is so dang pretty and I’m gonna need all of the bottles. Honeyed honeysuckles indeed. It almost smells tropical. I have fond memories of picking honeysuckles and pulling the stamen (I think) down through the blossom and licking off the nectar drop. It was the tastiest delicacy that I could think of as a kiddo, and to this day is probably my favorite scent/taste. This atmo closely approaches actual honeysuckle nectar, to my great delight! Beautiful scent.

Smoky black orchid and agarwood. Gorgeous!!! Orchid and fragrant (not indolic) agarwood. A little perfumey in a good way. The orchid note is a bit vanilla-y. This smells expensive and is reminding me of something—Selbstverliebt maybe?

Russet musk, white cream amber, sweet red patchouli, and pink pepper. Oooh boy, a lot of people are going to love this one. Red musk and sugary patch lovers rejoice! It’s sweet wood, musk, and cream. The pepper keeps it peppy. The sweet patchouli is dominant. This one’s a beauty.

White honey, camellia, and tobacco. Whoa my goodness is this lovely. It's very rich, like a gathered bouquet of camellias and tobacco leaves dipped in honey. It's pretty dern sexy and I think that it will pair very well with Dolly Kei.

A sparkle of fiery warmth on a cold winter’s night. This was fresher and brighter than I imagined it would be—like ginger candy with fresh cardamom grated on it, or like an artisanal ginger ale or ginger beer. It’s a nice pick-me-up!

A sharp blast of lavender eventually mellows into a lavender-vanilla cake with banana buttercream! I love this!

Bright, sunny lemongrass, with some creaminess from the coconut milk. This is happy blend reminiscent of sunshine!

This is glorious. It's exactly what it says on the tin--white petals dipped in the sugar. The white petals are of the heady, waxy variety--like magnolia, tuberose, jasmine, maybe a hint of gardenia. With time they become more creamy and less overtly sugary, reminding me a lot of NAVA's Ghost Velvet blend. Gorgeous.

This smells like sunshine on clean linens. It’s clean, bright, snuggly, and comforting. I put it on before bed when I was in a foul mood, and it made me feel much better. I do wish I got some of the jasmine, but otherwise it’s a lovely scent.

Yessss! This is the prettiest peach chypre! I'm so happy. It's got all of the class and elegance of a fine woody chypre with a liberal dousing of fresh, juicy peach. The peach is realistic. Peach Chypre foreverr!! ❤️❤️

Exactly what it says on the tin! Sweet, sugary marshmallow peaches with a hint of neroli. This is like a peachy, summery version of Stale Sugar-Crusted Marshmallow Chick.

Smooth woody frankincense with sweet peachy musk and honeyed rose. This is beautiful on me--a gentle scent that makes me feel happy. ❤️ Edited to add that it dries down into a lovely honeyed peach musk.

Ooooh I love this. Something (probably the ginger) is reminding me of Tamamo No Mae, which is one of my favorite scents. I get a lot of the white ginger flower and tea, with a good whiff of musk and a hint of fresh coconut. I'm so glad I got this one!

If jasmine were a summer drink, this is what it would smell like. It’s jasmine, but it’s tamed, a little bubbly, and a bit drinkable. ❤️

The piniest pine that ever pined, pining you right in the face. This is indeed a very piney and very cheerful pine. I think it’s the bit of lemon that lifts this one up and lends the cheerful aura. This is a very realistic, bright pine scent.

Key lime pie filling! Refreshing for summer. I love this one. ❤️

Crushed grass, pink clover, white cedar, bamboo, fig leaf, and white moss. To me this smells like the scene in Bambi where Thumper is eating the clover blossoms. It’s happy and green and sunny! Kinda like Lush’s Fox in the Flowers bath bomb in atmo form, or maybe Down the Rabbit Hole’s spring sister: clover blossoms, fresh grass (but not too grassy), and moss. This will be a beautiful linen spray.

Neon strawberry, pink peppercorn, viscous white honey amber, and a smear of Brazilian vetiver. Fresh honeyed strawberries! The pepper keeps it bright and peppy, and the amber note is similar to the one in Pa-Pow HG. Love this!

Green tea, white sandalwood, and white amber. A refreshing and pretty neutral green scent that will be great in spring and summer. This is close to Shanghai. Green tea and sandalwood. I really can’t imagine anyone not liking this scent, it’s lovely and inoffensive.

Peach-touched sandalwood, fig meat, and milky white musk. This is a nice white peach musk. Something in it—perhaps the musk—is reminding me of orris. It’s a clean and dry scent that’s fruity but also a little elegant. It’s like a grown up version of a peach perfume—very pretty and classy.

[No additional description provided.] Ahhhh I love this one! It’s the best, most realistic honey scent in the world, with some spicy carnation. I have a hard time finding honey scents that I like, and this one is such a winner!

[No additional description provided.] This one’s beautiful!! It’s honeyed soft leather (light brown in color), with a pinch of dry tobacco. It’s like sniffing the inside of an old, empty wooden tobacco box. Really lovely.

Well, this is lovely! A very pretty rose musk, that I think will work for people who can't typically wear rose. It's hazy and musky (for lack of a better description). The cherry is really prominent at first, but then melds into the musk seamlessly to create a candied rose musk scent. The cherry note is the awesome one that the Lab has been using recently--it's bright red and candied and doesn't go funky or cough drop-y. This one smells more like cotton candy than Gynotize! to me. This is a fun, pretty, and youthful scent.
