  1. This was a frimp, I received from the lab. Sadly, it's yet another scent that seems to run together, and just ends up being very over powering.

     

    ...Though, I will say the dry down is very nice.


  2. Very strong jasmine when first applied, but it tones down in a few minutes. If jasmine notes tended to dominate on your skin, then I would suggest this one for you. I can smell the honeysuckle, but mainly it's all jasmine. A really nice scent, once it settles down.


  3. An enigmatic, otherworldly scent, brimming with power and mystery. Lavender and jasmine, with a touch of glowing honeysuckle.


    This one didn't like me at all, which is sad because it was made of 3 of my favorite flowery scents. But instead of complimenting each other, they all seemed to run together into one fused scent... which wasn't pleasing so much as it was STRONG. Even after drying and sitting for a bit.

    Sadly, this is not one for me.

  4. Vanilla, then a hint of musk...with more vanilla. I know there are other scents in this but they all seemed to hide from me on this one. I'm undecided about this one, as I'm very much sold on Snake Oil, which is a lovely vanilla on me. So, this will have to go in the maybe pile for now.


  5. The gardenia is the most forward scent on me in this one, but not in an over powering way. Being as I love gardenia, this one is definitely one I'll be keeping around in imp form, if not bottle. Very lovely.


  6. Very vanilla on me. I'm undecided if I would classify it with the keepers. The vanilla I like, the other scents that I'm getting with it? I can't place, but I'm not sure they compliment me.

     

    This is in my maybe pile....

     

    No after wearing it a while, I decided this is a must keep. It just got more delicious as it stayed on. I see a bottle in my future.


  7. The pepper and linen are definitely the strong notes on my skin here. At first sniff on my skin, I thought I was sniffing hot sauce, it was literally the same type of sensation. My eyes even got a little watery.

     

    After it dried, the scent was much more pleasing, sorta musky.

     

    Generally I like it.


  8. Ouija

     

    On me. Very peppery at first, fading to rosey floral, with a hint of what smells like musk to me. It's a delicate scent, that sort of creeps up on you. It's pleasant, but I don't think I would put it in my favorites list.


  9. Bathsheba

     

    What a spicy girl Bathsheba was, and so this scent is aptly named. It's fabulous. Cinnamon and Flowers on me, which I know sounds like it would be strange, but is absolutely delightful. Like my bottle of Smut, this has a very sensual feel to it. I love it. Will have to look into purchasing this soon.


  10. Very coconuttish and very strong. There were flowerish hints as well. Overall it's not an unpleasant scent, just reminded me a bit too much of tanning oil.

    But if you like coconut, this would be a good choice for you.


  11. Pepper, Cinnamon, Mint, and a dash of sugary tone. It's very strong when it first went on, but as it's dying down it seems to be going more powdery on me. It's an odd scent, and one that I'm not sure I like so much. Reminds me of more of an old lady scent, and not in a good way.


  12. This is very much a floral scent. For me it smells very rosey like, with a light background of a powdery scent. As some have said, it is kind of grandmotherly, but not in an unpleasant way.

     

    I think I shall be keeping this little imp around for a bit.


  13. Peppermint and blades of grass, with some sharp sweet spice in the background. More of a honeyed scent as it fades. This scent is very strong, so much so that my head is beginning to get a bit of an ache. Definitely not my scent, but I'm sure it will make someone else a good imp.


  14. A tragic heroine from German lore. In despair over a faithless lover, she threw herself into the Rhine. In death, she has become a siren that haunts that river to this day, luring sailors to their doom. Neroli, sandalwood, ylang ylang.


    A very pleasant, musky scent on me, with a hint of pine or evergreen peeking through the background. This was over all a delicate and light scent, and I really had to put my nose to it to get a sense of the scent. A lovely scent, but not something I think I'll be keeping. It's a bit -too- light for me.

  15. It was very strong when it came out of the imp, so much so that I literally held it away from me for a moment. Very sharp and almost medicinal in scent on me when first applied.

    After sitting with it for a bit, it's faded into more of a a scent I associate with a glade plug-in or air freshener. Ah well, can't win them all.


  16. Spicy herbal scent, as soon as I uncapped it. In the background, I smell cut grass and a faint floral scent.

     

    Reminds me a little bit of La Petit Mort, but just a bit stronger and with more herbs. I think I will keep it around for a while.


  17. A panoply of cultural treasures, spanning the herbs, flowers, oils and balms of the Romans, the Byzantines, the Mediterranean, the Levant, Northern China, Eastern Europe, Iran, the Bulgar-Kypchak, Mesopotamia, the Crimean Peninsula, Anatolia, Antioch, and North Africa.


    Like it's description says this is a hodge-podge of scents. There are too many to even begin to try to break them down, but over all it's a very pleasant scent.

    For me it has a warm cinnamon-ish tone to it, so I definitely see myself wearing it during the holidays.

  18. The name suggested that this was perhaps going to lend itself to be a more masculine scent, but I'm beginning to think it's more unisex. There's a darker musk, but not over powering, undertoned by the spice of wood, perhaps leather, and a smokey scent. I think I even get a little trace of vanilla, for just a touch of sweet.

     

    I could see this being an everday scent for me, and one I'll definitely have to try on the boyfriend. Very nice.
