I love the Lab's lime note. But It never stays on my skin! But this..this is just refreshing, candied lime with tea. This is gorgeous.

I want this. Rum, Patchouli with a hint of dead leaves. And more RUM  I love the smell of this!

This is just provocative. The Dead Leaves and Cement=Dead leaves and Cement. It really reminds me of dry cement having leaves blown all over it. It's wonderful...just not for me.

Warm, pulsating blood musk. smooth, but biting vetiver. I need a bottle.

Scotch and pickles. the Dead leaf mixed with the scotch smells like damn pickled scotch.

Dead leaves with a hint of sugared nuts. It's all I could smell in the imp.

I love this one. The apricot is beautiful and held in check by the ambergis and dead leaf note. It's stunning. Bottleworthy for sure.

Pomelo is head ache inducing. It's not helping the migraine I already have. The dead leaves are there with the green pomelo, it's definitely a bright green note and on the end is the slight juicy currant note. Too bad it adds to my headache or I might get a bottle of this one..

Dead leaves and cheap chianti. I know that smell very well. It's just gross on me. I smell like my first bad time with cheap wine.

Dirt, blackberry, leaves. Ripe juicy blackberry and it doesn't go rancid on my skin. It's nice. Just not for me.

Oddly, the carnation note has taken over. The dead leaves is very subtle. I am not fan of carnation so this will go to a new home, but it is truly nice not to amp the leaf not in this one.

On me, the dead leaves take over. The vanilla is there for about 2 minutes and then POOF. GONE. *sigh*

Dead leaves, vetiver with a hint of vanilla. I was hoping the vanilla would be heavier here..but it's not.

Dead leaves and watered down coffee beans. Again..stomach turning. fail 2.

Dead leaves and sweet maple syrup. Stomach turning. Not a fan.

The sage does not smell like chicken on my skin!!! I repeat: THE SAGE DOES NOT SMELL LIKE CHICKEN ON MY SKIN!! Whatever Charparral is..it's fabulous. It blends so well with the sage and dead leaves that it leaves a light unisex scent to enjoy. I really like this one. I think I need a bottle.

I tried this at NYCC and I will never forget it. Sweet pumpkin with a sprinkle of honey dust on it. True to form.

This is sexy mildly sweet pumpkin musk with black oude that slinks in the background. It's weird but delicious. I am glad I sprung for a bottle. I think I need a back up partial.

This is a woolier version of Unicorn and the Ram. I love it. I will be getting another bottle, soon.

Red apple, with a dash of candied pineapple and green tea! Alas, the skin eats the dang pineapple and I am left with green tea with a drop of red apple. *sigh*

This smells like crisp, honey crisp apples with a hint of pair and white amber. It's soft and beautiful and stays close to the skin. This will age beautifully.

Dead Leaves is the prominent note. The red apple is secondary. Alas, the dead leaves is going to over take the gorgeous red apple note. *sigh*

This smells like an old rich woman drinking champagne. The piquant Bergomot translated to champagne to my nose and skin. No clove, just labdanum mixed with CHampagne.

I wanted to love this. But there is too much spicy amber and peach and not enough Ambergis and vanilla cream to balance it out. *sigh*

Welp. Sadly this is my first fail. The sweet tobacco and dime store musk...are a nauseating combination on my skin. I amp metal, so I should have known that when Beth said dime, she meant it. I am releasing this out into the world in hopes that someone else will like it. Thank God it's only an imp.
