    Obatala

    Heavy on Shea with a bit of coconut... Light and sweet with a creaminess to it. Pretty, but I don't need a bottle of it. My favorite coconut scents are brown Jenkins and son of bigger critter still!

    All Souls

    2013 version: I thought I would love this version since I loved 2010, but it does get a bit of stale old roses scent to it after drying down. It does smell like old lady perfume with a bit of Cakey sweetness to it...disappointing. Hopefully, 2014 doesn't smell like this!

    White Phoenix

    Frangipani dominant with a tiny bit of magnolia. Cotton flower makes it a tiny bit powdery. As it dries the light musk and lavender come out a bit more. Nice, light floral, not too heady at all, but not something I need a lot of. Would be good for professional days

    Schrodinger's Cat

    Pretty and light lemony scent when first applied. I can pick up the chocolate mint barely, but it dries into something like bathroom cleaner on me. It's much more bearable than twinkle twinkle little bat, but still....very pretty bathroom cleaner.

    Ice

    sharp cologney scent with aquatic feel to it. I definitely understand the CK1 analogy. There is a slight coconut sweetness and mint when it dries. this is a pretty, clean scent. perfect for professional days and would be gorgeous on a man!

    Urd

    wet: patchouli and nag champa - like a head shop on steroids in the best way possible! dry: head shop mellows out and muscadine (sour grapiness) appears to give a slightly sweet fruity touch to it. I actually like this, but won't be wearing it to anything professional!! There is a lot of throw with this so only wear it on days off!

    Deep in Earth

    soil and rose geranium. it's sharp at first (not pleasant), but then mellows out to a pretty earthy scent flavored by roses....but then it goes to rose soap.... too bad. So far my favorite soil scent is worm moon 2013.

    Night-Gaunt

    wet: grapefruit sweetened with a bit of floral. I really like this so far! As it dries it becomes a little more musky and floral. I definitely like this! it's a beautiful young and refreshing scent! I have a few imps and will possibly get a bottle one day.

    The Laughter of Loki

    love this! green musk made spicy with ginger, the white patchouli complements it beautifully! It smells like you are in a mystical forest!!

    Cathedral

    Venerable and solemn: the scent of incense smoke wafting through an ancient church. A true ecclesiatical blend of pure resins. cedar and vetiver sweetened with resins. It's pretty and calming, but it gets a little close to fragrant pencil shavings on me...I think cedar has a tendency to do that anyway on me. Too bad because it is a beautiful scent when first applied.

    Channel Snow

    Smoky vetiver, but with a clean cologney edge...sweetened by benzoin. It goes on sharp at first, then mellows to a spicy sweet musk. Very nice, but I'm happy with just a decant. I think it reminds me of a Lancôme perfume, but I can't remember which one- I think it's the cognac colored one in the pyramid shaped bottle. This is nostalgic because that was my mother's signature scent when I was little.

    The Gatekeeper

    Agreed...sandalwood and leather, but the leather is a bit sharp, so I'm not crazy about it!

    Protagoras

    really wish I had gotten a bottle of this--sweet light honey, vanilla, and beeswax. It's like eating the most delicate honeycomb! Sweet, but close to skin and not overwhelming.

    Anaxagoras

    Incense with white florals. It's ok, just not really me.

    Phantom

    Myrrh, dark musk, attar of rose and ylang ylang. Musk and rose with myrrh making it a little powdery, but it is still pretty. Typically the lab's myrrh kills scents for me, but this is nice when wet. Edit: fades rather quickly and becomes more powdery when it dries...so I'm giving this one away!

    Oceanus Procellarum

    Minerally aquatic, but with a light hand. I've had the imp for a while, but am just now trying it out. It reminds me of being on the beach in the early fall when it isn't quite so hot. You could easily wear this in a business setting and get away with it!

    Pain

    I love this! Super strong mint with a medicinal lavender, perfect for when you have a headache or need to be refreshed! Must get a bottle ASAP!

    Honeyed Peach Bath Oil

    i love honey notes, but something in this particular bath oil makes it edge on the cat urine side of the spectrum...the woody note helps it a little bit. In the water the bark and oakmoss gets stronger, but I am happy I only got a decant.

    Destroying Angel

    starts off as some department store perfume...I really don't like it, but then it mellows to where you can smell some fungus and a bit of dirt. It's bearable at this stage, but I'm not crazy about it.

    Seraphim

    floral..starting with white floral then lily gets stronger. The floral is rounded with incense to make it much better than it would be if it were just florals. Not my favorite, but it is likable which is unusual since I hate lily fragrances.

    Alice

    Roses and carnations when first applied. When dry, a little bit of milk and honey makes the floral sweet and creamy, but also a bit powdery. Despite this, I still really like Alice, probably not enough to get a bottle, but I will keep my imps.

    Juke Joint

    Someone previously mentioned a Chinese liquid medicine and I concur. It brings up childhood memories for me, but finishes with a pleasant sweet mint smell. Definitely a keeper, but I probably don't need a bottle!

    Nyx

    Jasmine with a hint of rose followed by powdery myrrh

    Lacus Solitudinis

    Lavender sandalwood pencil shavings....pass! This is the first lunacy this year to not work on me...sad....

    The Edge of Doom
