In the bottle: Oh no, this is almost TOO much rose! Rose has a nasty tendency to turn to powder and laundry detergent on me. Wet: The rose is almost too much, but the sugar is warming with my skin tone, and it's turning into something GLORIOUS. Dry: The only rose scent I can wear. It's feminine, but not cloying, warmed by sugar and comes off as almost a Lolita type scent- innocent with a darkness lurking beneath. She layers AMAZINGLY with her sister, Faith. Definitely my go-to scent for when I want to smell innocent. (I've had these for a few years and they age superbly!)

In the bottle: Candied violets and something dark underneath Wet: Soft, sweet, flowery and a tad wicked. The violet is warmed by the sugar. Dry: Delightfully feminine, floral, but warm- florals usually turn baby powder on me, but the sugar keeps it from going that route! WONDERFUL for when I'm feeling particularly coy <3

I've had this one for a LONG time but never reviewed it! In the bottle: Smoky, wet, ozone. An underlying heat that makes me think of hot asphalt. Wet on the skin: Petrichor. Hot asphalt and earth, wet rain and rumbling thunder. I was so afraid this wouldn't work because my skin HATES ozone, but it smells like a summer thunderstorm over a highway and open fields. Dry: Incense, smoky ozone and petrichor. Simply lovely. I am so glad this worked, because I tried Lightning once and the results were HORRIFYING. Glad I had the hindsight to order two bottles of these when they were out- they aged VERY well.
