The Yule label theme is All Krampus, All the Time. The Pink Snowballs label is also Krampus-themed; some of the Krampus'ee labels don't have red backgrounds, is all. =)

 

Glad you guys like them! I had a lot of fun making the Krampus ones, and Julie did an amazing job with the Miskatonic Valley artwork!

Oh, I love the Krampus theme! The labels look great, makes me want to get every bottle just for the labels.

I definitely agree with Detestable Putrescence. I don't really get vanilla from Mouse's Long and Sad Tale, but maybe I'm crazy.

I just can't picture Dorian on a young girl. I dunno, just seems weird.

Snow, Glass, Apples is very green apple to me. In fact, Poisoned Apple reminds me a lot of SGA. I get green apple from both of them, not red apple.

Summer's Last Will and Testament

In Bottle: Okay I know this is weird, and my boyfriend thought I was crazy, but I seriously get fried chicken. It's like a bam! pow! of cleaning agent which is very yellow to me, and then I get... fried chicken. I have no idea why and I can't tell what that note is.

Wet on Skin: The fried chicken is gone, and the cleaning agent has died down a lot. I can't really tell what it is, evidently I haven't tried a lot of citrus florals.

Dry Down: Gets sweeter, almost bearable. Now I can smell the sunflower.

Dry on Skin: Sunflower, sunflower, sunflower. Ick.

Overall: 1.5/5. It's meh, though if you like light florals I'd suggest it. Definitely not for me.

Bite Me

In Bottle: Ooof! Very strong almond and caramel.

Wet on Skin: Oooh it's almond, deeper sniff almond, and then... icky caramel end smell. Ick.

Dry Down: The almond is mellowing out I think.

Dry on Skin: Blegh smells kind of like shampoo... ick.

Overall: 2/5 I think I'd like it without the caramel, I really hate caramel.

I wish I had gotten rose out of this, I love rose.

Trick or Treat 2009

In Bottle: Omg horribly horribly sweet. But I also hate candy corn.

Wet on Skin: It has at least mellowed out, more of a creamy candy scent now.

Dry Down: Stay the same, a much lighter sweet treat.

Dry on Skin: This is way more creamy than in the bottle. Nice, but I don't think I'd ever wear it.

Overall: 3/5 Pretty good, if you like sweet scents.

Dia de los Muertos 2009

In Bottle: Ooh I definitely get the cactus blossom, and leaves. Not sure if I like it.

Wet on Skin: This is surprisingly floral and much less incense than I expected.

Dry Down: Bleh... Too sweet, that weirdly synthetic smell from floral.

Dry on Skin: Synthetic floral.

Overall: 2/5 Really let down by this scent.

Devil's Night 2009

In Bottle: Smells very very promising. I get sugar with leaves and fire.

Wet on Skin: Booze and fall and with a bit of apple.

Dry Down: It's definitely get less cold and more warm, if that makes sense.

Dry on Skin: Mmm a lot more spice. This is really nice.

Overall: 4/5 This is really, really nice for an autumn night. Might consider getting a bottle.

Lambs-Wool

In Bottle: Mmmm apples. Any apple scent I really just get apple from in the bottle.

Wet on Skin: What to describe besides yum? This is absolutely fantastic.

Dry Down: Anyway, to get serious, it's sooo warm and creamy and delicious. Makes me want to try the drink.

Dry on Skin: Very lovely, I definitely get the milk and the apples and the spice.

Overall: 5/5 I love it - the perfect fall scent. I want this so bad.

Suck It

In Bottle OMG CHERRY DELICIOUSNESS. I want to eat it, it smells like a cherry popsicle to me.

Wet on Skin: Mmmm still get a lot of cherry. No booze though really.

Dry Down: Okay now I definitely get more booze from this.

Dry on Skin: Cherry cherry cherry cherry! Mmmm delicious.

Overall: 5/5 I love it. The description is perfect, and great cherry. If you don't like fruit scents I wouldn't recommend.

Feeding the Dead

In Bottle: Lol on first sniff I got cheese, but that quickly went away, and now I have a lot of root beer and sweetness with a bit of spicey.

Wet on Skin: Cake and butter. Way too sugary sweet for me. I don't get any of the beer.

Dry Down: Sugar, cake, and... lemon? How odd. I wish I got more incense from this.

Dry on Skin: Not as sweet anymore, most of the incense. Pretty nice.

Overall: 3/5. Another okay foody fall scent for those that enjoy them.

Pomona

In Bottle: Apple and pomegranate with a small hint of bitter nut.

Wet on Skin: The apple is really strong, and there's a lot more nut. Still get that bitterness... don't really like it.

Dry Down: Well the bitterness has mellowed out, which is leading it to be actually kind of nice. It's kind of an apple buttery smell.

Dry on Skin: I don't really get any of the fruit notes, but a smooth apple instead. Kind of a bummer.

Overall: 3.5/5 This is a pretty good scent, it's definitely very fall and goes well with Halloween. I wish I got more of the other scents besides the apple though.

Creepy 2009

In Bottle: Very strong caramel with a hint of apple.

Wet on Skin: Wow, the caramel mellows out A LOT. I get the butterscotch with an undernote of apple, and a very little hint of coconut.

Dry Down: The apple is definitely getting stronger.

Dry on Skin: Oooh now I get more of the rum, but still the apple is very strong.

Overall: 4/5 This is a great foody scent, very nice. Though it's just not my style.

In Bottle: Raspberry, raspberry, raspberry with a hint of dirt or something. Like a tombstone, almost.

Wet on Skin: I definitely get the patchouli now, but still a ton of raspberry.

Dry Down: God, this scent is heavenly. The raspberry is starting to fade and I can smell the plum and patchouli a lot stronger now. I haven't smelt the pomegranate at all.

Dry on Skin: The darkness has toned down a bit, leaving a very dusty and spicey blend. I get the plum, the patchouli, the musk, a bit of the black pepper.... It's delicious.

Rate: 6/5. I could bath in this all day.

In Bottle: Champagne, and sleaze. Seriously I can't describe, but it just smells like hooch. Sniffing a little longer reveals a very very trace hint of chocolate.

Wet on Skin: The chocolate became stronger, but the champagne is very powerful still. The hooch seems to have disappeared a bit.

Dry Down: The champagne is fading pretty fast, which is leaving a strong sex smell (like a room that's been filled with dirty, sweaty sex) and a mellow chocolate note.

Dry on Skin: Verrrry interesting. Doesn't seem to have much throw, but seems like a very fun scent given the right chance to wear it. None of them seem to be overpowering on me, and works well with my skin.

Overall: 5/5. It's not something I'd normally wear, but it's a really interesting scent that I just want to sniff over and over. I wouldn't even say it's a pleasing scent, but there's no way I could part with this. Very decadent.

I would like to go to Healthy Living Market and check out the stuff, but it's a bit of a drive.

So, what do they carry? How big is their selection? And... Do they still carry bpal?
