  1. In the Bottle: Sugar Cookie

     

    Wet: Vanilla, tea, and lemon. This smells like a sweet and feminine Dorian variation, but without the darkness.

     

    Dry: a peculiar deep smell. I can only imagine this is the amber, patchouli, musk combination.

     

    Overall: This one was the winner for me. With Alan McMicheal in a close second. I ran out and bought a back up bottle because I loved it so much. It's a very sweet almost foodie scent.


  2. In The Bottle: Floral musk with whispers of amber.

     

    Wet: Amber, Berries and a complex smell that you can't quite place.

     

    Dry: Soft and sweet powder. The complex smell from above stays and adds to the smell of the powder

     

     

    Overall: This has to be the most complicated scent of the Crimson Peak line that I have smelled. It's a floral musk with fruity complex undertones that dies down to an aristocratic, soft, feminine smell. I imagine that this is what Vanessa Ives would smell like. I'm very tempted to buy a back up bottle.


  3. In the Bottle: Cloves, Smoke, and a greenness that smells almost medicinal.

     

    Wet: Smoke and Cloves. There is a masculine sweetness to this.

     

    Dry: Sandalwood and cloves. It smells masculine and comforting. Like a warm blanket by the fireplace as you sip clove tea on winter night.

     

     

    Overall: I love this scent. I wound up buying a back up bottle of this. This one has to be my second favorite of all the Crimson Peak scents. It's a more masculine scent, and much warmer than it's Sir Thomas counterpart.


  4. In the Bottle: Sexy and sweet. There is a heavy smell of men's cologne. It smells very similar to 'Wild Country' from Avon.

     

    Wet: It simmers down pretty quickly. The overpowering men's cologne takes a back seat to a sweet vanilla musk smell. I wouldn't call this scent 'Unisex' but I would say it's mild.

     

    Dry: Musk. Pure. Musk. It's very heavy and thick. I can't detect any of the loveliness that it had before.

     

    Overall: This is a very masculine cologne that has a lot of complexities in the bottle. It was not my favorite of the Crimson Peak character scents. I was looking forward to Dorian's Dark sexy cousin. Instead I have a heavy masculine scent. I can see why many people adore this scent. However, it is not for me.


  5. Hmm, I find Delirium to be a very adept name for this scent. It's utterly Fruity/Floral, and I think that perhaps this is a little too bubbly for me.

     

    Wet: Apples.

     

     

    Dry: Fruity, but the roses come through very strong here.

     

    It stays on your skin for an average amount of time. It's not a favorite, but I assume someone who loves fruity florals would go crazy ::wink wink:: for this scent.


  6. With a name like Blood Kiss, and the fact that it was in the all time favorites category, I expected this sent to be IT. But alas, I smelled like wet Robitussin.

     

    Wet: Cherry cough syrup.

     

    Dry: Musky cherry cough syrup.

     

     

    I won't be purchasing this again, but I feel like it has a lot of potential for the right skin combination. Always, get an imp first! You don't want to spend 20 bucks to smell like cold medicine.


  7. Upon reading the description, I was SURE this one was a keeper, but no, apparently my skin amps florals and spices.

     

    Wet: HOLY WHITE FLOWERS BATMAN! I kind of feel like bathroom spray. I smell like a giant WHITE FEBREEZE FLOWER. It's VERY strong, to a point where it almost bothers my nose.

     

    Dry: As it drys down the floral is less so, but I can smell the slight sweetness of the perfume. It's very light and girly.

     

     

    It lasts for a very long time.


  8. I really wanted to like this perfume, but it just turned out to be a minty floral mess on me.

     

    Wet: MINT SO MUCH MINT.

     

    Dry: Floral mint.

     

    On my skin, the mint just comes through, and it stayed on my skin for quite a long time. I will not buy this again.


  9. Very beautiful sexual musk.

     

    Wet: Unnatural warmth of spices that recalls ancient Egypt or temples.

     

    Dry: Musky in a wild, but strong way.

     

     

    It has a tendency to be a little medicinal at the VERY first, but it drys down VERY quickly. I's really lovely, but doesn't stay on your skin very long.


  10. It's a little cough syrupy in the bottle.

     

    Wet: Super warm and sweet. The chocolate comes out.

     

    Dry: It warms down. It's a very mild pretty scent. Not too harsh, and not dark or seductive at all. Sophisticated warmth, with a touch of spice.
