    O

    Bottle: Warm and spiced with a hint of vanilla. Wet: Exotic. The vanilla has disappeared for now, but the spices are lovely. Dry: More honey, still sensual and exotic with a hint of a sweetness. Later: Much the same, with a bit less bite. Imagery: A sensual woman surrounded in luxury and pleasure. Summary: This is a lovely scent that brings to mind sensual pleasures. While I enjoy the smell, it’s not particularly strong and lacks a certain interesting quality. It also doesn’t last very long. EDIT 9/19/2007: Wore this scent today and recieved a variety of different responses. People told me that I smelled like "paste," "vinegar," and of course the ubiquitous "baby powder." I thought I smelled pretty good but I guess not. I just thought I'd share.

    Juliet

    Bottle: Sharply floral and very clean smelling. Wet: LOL, reminds me a bit of clean laundry, but much prettier. It’s very soft and feminine. Dry: Not much different, but the sharpness of the bottle-smell has returned, a bit of bite in this very lovely perfume. Later: Almost exactly the same, but less intense. Imagery: This is the perfume I would imagine a very fiery, but still beautiful and feminine young woman to wear. Absolutely perfect for Juliet. Summary: This is such a girly perfume, I love it! It’s not very me, but I can’t help but enjoy it. Suffice to say, I'll be wearing it anytime I want to amp up the girliness factor.

    The Hesperides

    Bottle: Flowery with a hint of apples. Wet: Apples! Not crisp apples but slightly overripe and soft with an undertone of flowers. Dry: Less of the overripeness and more pure, unadulterated apple. It’s still a very smooth scent and the flowers and woody notes are becoming more prominent Later: All the scents merge so perfectly, it’s absolutely wonderful. Imagery: Walking through an orchard where the apples are just slightly too ripe, so they smell really sweet. Nearby there are flowers, and the smell of the leaves and bark mesh perfectly. Summary: A lovely scent. Very sweet and soft and, of course, apple-y.

    Hamadryad

    Bottle: Smells like a dark forest with cinnamon and something woodsy. Wet: Um…altoids? Dry: Seriously, I smell like a combination of wintergreen altoids with those Sweethearts you get on Valentine’s Day. Um…not really sure if I like it, but it’s kind of cool. Later: Wood! There it is! I was wondering if it would show up again. Still got the mint candy scent, but now with an overlay of a dark forest. Imagery: Candy! Minty, wintergreen, sugary, really, really strongly scented candy. But only at first. Once the candy calms down it’s a minty, strangely spicy forest. Summary: Kind of neat, kind of odd. If the mint represents magic, then I smell like one magically-charged forest. The candy bit at the beginning is odd, but once I got used to it I kind of liked it. I probably won’t get a bottle, but it’s a fun scent nevertheless.

    Snake Oil

    My first review! Bottle: Spicy Vanilla! Smells like yum! Wet: Very spicy, on my skin the vanilla disappears and I can only smell it if I search for it. I like this, but not as much as the bottle smell. Dry: Back to the lovely spicy vanilla. Yay! I just want to curl up in this scent. Later: The spiciness has backed off and left mostly vanilla with a touch of something warm. Imagery: Being wrapped in a blanket of vanilla happiness. Summary: A lovely, gorgeous scent, though I admit I was expecting something sexier. This is a great comfort scent to me. I can also see how this might be too bland for those who don't like vanilla. I may buy a bottle, but I think I'm searching for something a bit more unique. (this is lovely, though, I can see why it's so popular)
