Dark Alice

Wet: smut and the insides of a freshly cut pumpkin. Dry.. freshly cut pumpkin. My skin ate the smut! 

This is gorgeous. It smells like glass...I guess that's the amber and then I know this will sound weird but it smells like there is a crack. Like something off with the glassy amber. That's what's the visual I get when I wear it... perhaps it's the silvery note on the final drydown..but either way.. it's lovely.

This smells like a freshly bound leather book sitting a top polished bookcase made of fancy wood. I love it!💕💕

Starts out sweet, minty, pine. Dries to Pine with a hint of caramel. Not a fan.

This is one of my very favorites....it smells like one of the older theaters in NY I went to for Musicals when I lived in Jersey. It is lovely, eerie and gorgeous. I wish it was a perfume.

This is sweet coffee without the cream, amber, and chewy, sweetened chewy tobacco. I don't get oudh from this at all. I get coffee, amber, and sweet tobacco. I love it!

This smells like a strong version of those green mints that melt in your mouth that you can still get at some restaurants. I don't get any pistachio here which is oddand nice. Combined with pink love bird, it smells like minty cardamom pink cake. Yum!

This smells like pink, cardamom sponge cake. I want to eat it. I get no cotton candy from this thankfully. 

This smells like black cherry and dry fig.  I really like it. Fig normally goes poof on my skin, but here it is gorgeous! Bottleworthy

This smelled like a fancy french mill soap. Not for me. 😛

Black cherry with fresh poop on top. Not for me.

This straight up smells like a cross between pickles and a jalepeno juice. I can't even smell the cherry. This has got to go.

This starts out with a gorgeous black cherry note and then dries into the loveliest pink pepper note that tickles my nose.  It's worth the investment for a bottle...it's glorious.

Wet: The apricot and vanilla take over and give me a minor headache. Dry, the wood, vanilla, and dark musk swirl together in a dark and sensual dance. This is what you wear when the one night stand you never wanted but needed in your life takes place.

 I was most excited by this one. I am sad unfortunately. There is something off that's in it. Not a huge fan, I honestly think it's the sandalwood. :{

If you ever imagined how garnet would smell, this is it. Soft red musk, a touch of sweetness and something that its not sharp but a note that reminds me the toughness of the stone.  Maybe the mahogany. It's just amazing.

This is wonderful. The cedarwood does not turn to pencils shavings on me. The vanilla floats in the background  and makes the description of this scent dead on: Dry and husky-sweet. This is an inoffensive warm scent that will do well with a little age and then be worn on cold days where I want to feel warm and dry outside and sweet and soft when I get home. It's not cuddly, but it is lovely.

Wet: It smells like lightening and water.  It definitely has a tinge of ozone and then there comes the mint. This glorious mild mint, with ozone, and water and lightening.  It is legitimately magical!

This was the scent I chose based on instinct and the notes. I was not disappointed. Wet: It all smells like the tonka, olibanum and the damn dead leaf/cologne note are fighting for supremacy.   Dry: These notes blend beautifully. The olibanum is not heavy, the tonka keeps it sweet and the leaf note behaves. I am going to age b/c I know it will be fantastic in a few months!!! 

This smells like a nice brown leather binder sat in some moss and flowers in the woods. It's lovely!

This is like walking in a well kept library with leather bound books in a fancy city like Venice. It's lovely from wet to dry. Partial needed.

Stick your head in a fresh vase of lilacs and that's all you get. I amp lilac and this is a fresher version but still a headache inducer.

Saltwater, sea glass. It smells like I am eating glass. The notes give me a headache.  But it's is dead on accurate.

It never fails with rice powder,  I smell like rose scented rice from Uncle Ben's. The rice even smells buttery FFS.  I can't win. But at least I smell like fancy rice.

Legit, wet this smells like a peach farted on my skin.  Just farted peach. Dry, the vanilla, amber and cacao come to life with a very small hint of peach. I like it, but I don't know if I will keep it.
