    Discarded Sandal

    I love this! I was concerned because of the pine but the beeswax calms the forest greenery down. It settles sweet. It’s like smelling a beehive in a pine forest. 🥰

    Theodosius, The Legerdemain

    I do agree that there is some Dorian in this. This is a perfect blended on me of white tea, vanilla, and soft florals. clean, floral, slightly sweet, and light.

    Dead Leaves, Bourbon Vanilla, and Myrrh

    I just found this imp. Oh my it’s lovely. it’s a gorgeous fall scent but knowing me I’ll wear it year long. I should have bought this years ago when it was for sale. dead leaves dry quickly leaving dirty bourbon and smoke. It’s a hint sweet and dries into a smoky incense. “two thumbs up fine holiday fun!”

    Sad Love

    I'm sad to say that this wears like air freshener on me. I wanted this to work but unfortunately, it does not! I will be putting this up for sale. On a positive note, it does dry down nicely.

    Hope

    Words that come to mind: Sweet, Springtime, Green Florals, Beeswax, Picnics, Clean, Blossoms, Lovely, wild flowers. The perfect scent for a nice walk around the block or possibly a springtime hike. I would pair this with a cool glass of iced tea, or maybe a chilled white wine. loving this bottle!!

    Perversion Atmosphere Spray

    The perfect scent to wear to your next bondage ball, dungeon adventure or sojourn to your favorite pleasure dome. Smoky rum and black tobacco with a whisper of steamy leather with a splash of crystalline chardonnay, layered over a sensual, sweet, and deceptively magnetic base of tonka. ​In the bottle I smell the tonka. This makes me think of something tropical and sexy. The rum and tobacco work perfectly with the base of tonka. I love this. I spray it on my bed every night.

    Now Winter Nights Enlarge

    In the bottle I get honey mixed with a green floral. Applied to my skin I get red musk. The musk lasted quite a while. completely dry all I smell is Musk. The top notes were great but the amount of Musk ruined it for me.

    Eat Me

    ​Bottle: White Vanilla Cake Skin: Clean Currants - Very Sweet Dry: Warm Vanilla I think I found the one foodie scent that agrees with my skin. Every time I sniff my arm I get waves of vanilla and currant. Picture walking into a bakery. This is making me hungry.

    Embalming Fluid

    Bottle: Green Tea & Lemon Wet: Aloe with a hint of green tea Dry Down: Clean and sweet The scent combination reminds me of a spa. Everything drys down into a clean fresh scent perfect for summer.

    Hecate

    Magnificent three-faced Goddess of Magic, the Dark Moon and the Crossroads. She is the Mother of Witches, and the midnight baying of hounds is her paean. Her compassion is evidenced in her role as Psychopomp for Persephone, and her wrath manifests as Medea’s revenge. Deep, buttery almond layered over myrrh and dark musk. ​Bottle: Sweet Almond (the top note reminds me of Voodoo) Skin: Dark Musk Dry down: Sweet myrrh This dries into something sweet and powdery. It's not as strong as I thought it would be. I'll keep the imp, but no bottle purchase.

    Wassail Atmosphere Spray

    Reminds me of the fall. Lovely scent.

    The Obsidian Widow

    Definitely not what I expected. The dusty rose overpowers everything. At times I could smell Jasmine. Either way, these are two scents that do not work on me.

    Mircalla, Countess Karnstein

    In the bottle: Herbs and Peru Balsam Wet: Frankincense, Herbs, possibly patchouli. Dry down: Clove, Red Musk and vanilla. This scent is very complex. Each time I wear it I smell a new dominant scent. It's an warm, herbal scent. It can be lightly floral and musky. The throw is strong and lasts a long time. I think this has something for everyone. 4.5/5

    Queen Gertrude

    very sweet violets. I usually hate the smell of violets but this smells very clean and earthy. A little too floral for my taste, but if you like a clean floral scent, try Queen Gertrude.

    Rapture

    All I smell is roses and jasmine.

    Red Patchouli and Fig Hair Gloss

    This is mostly patchouli with under notes of sweet fig. ​The patchouli is a little too strong for my taste. If you are a fan of resinous slightly sweet scents, then this is the hair gloss for you.

    Ice Princess Bath Oil

    In the bottle I smell the iced blackberry On my skin I smell very sweet peaches. On the dry down the sweet vanilla has taken over balanced by some light honey. The scent will last very long on my skin. Like all of the bath oils, I use this as a moisturizer throughout the day​.

    Honeyed Apple Bath Oil

    I love this scent. In the bottle it smells like honey and a little bit of dirt. Reminds me of a jar of honey being stored in a pantry or a cupboard. On my skin I smell red apples and a hint of leather. The honey and apple paired together creates a clean union. This isn't a foodie scent to me because both of the notes smell fresh and light.

    Baobhan Sith Bath Oil

    ​All I smell is grapefruit at first. Once it hits my skin, the green tea is dominant. A slight apple note is noticeable upon the dry down. I love grapefruit and I love this bath oil. I do use it more as a moisturizer than a bath oil. It mixes well with a BPAL smoky scent.

    Stray Poppy-Leaves Hair Gloss

    ​I love this smell, its light, herbal and earthly. All the leafy goodness dries down to a sweet floral. I love the artwork too.

    Olokun

    Bottle Cantalope, melon, Wet Some kind of Floral Dry Very aquatic. The melon scent was interesting, but the aquatic makes my skin smell like air freshener rather than the perfume that I love.

    Santo Domingo

    I love this scent but may just be imp worthy. It smells good, maybe more for an atmosphere spray, or hair gloss.

    A Blade of Grass

    ​This scent is all grass on me. It dries down to a light floral. ​ I may keep because it is so different. Definitely would not use it everyday.

    Glukuprikos

    Ambergris, pale musk, peru balsam, golden amber, cedar, lavender, spikenard, narcissus, vanilla caramel, white sandalwood, and woodmoss. In the bottle I smell Lavender. My mind tells me to proceed with caution. Wet on my skin - peru balsam, wood moss, ambergris, and narcissus Dry - sandalwood, vanilla. It's a keeper. Very well blended.
