This was a gift from my Witch, thank you for letting me try this even if it's not quite as expected.
I get leather,more leather and wood. No honey, berries or sweetness.
I agree that it is very masculine.
I'm not sure when I would wear it. I will try this again when I need courage to deal with a difficult event.

Wet-all mint.
Dry- soil and vegetation. Like digging around the mint patch in the garden and trampling the stems into the soil.
-
I agree with the Snow White reviews. This all Snow White to me with just a touch of rose. I don't love rose so I'll stick with Snow White.
-
Skin musk, white amber, ambergris, orange blossom, ylang ylang, and coconut milk.
Wet- green, fresh cut daffodil stems
Dry - I'm getting the snow white comparisons with a touch of the coconut sun lotion.
Later the musk appears,this is a beautiful unique blend. I don't get the orange blossom or amber at all, just creamy coconut musk. -
To me this is sweet honeyed dragon's blood. Lovely but I don't need a bottle.

I wore Wolf's Heart for the interview for my current job. It certainly helped me feel strong and confident and I needed it as I knew one of the panel wanted another candidate.

This was a frimp. I would never have tried it otherwise, due to the presence of jasmine.
This is a sweet almost foody scent, it smells more apricot than pink to me. I don't get the jasmine at all.
It's lovely creamy, innocent and girly. I like it best of the Marchen scents I've tried but I think I'll get by without a bottle.

Lockets Honey & Lemon sweets for sore throats.
Sweet & lemony.
-
Wet-Lovely light fresh cucumber. Just a touch of teak, enough to stop this becoming cucumber cleansing milk.
As it dries the cucumber disappears leaving the wood notes plus something creamy.don't recognise this as coconut but it's good.
This one is going into my top 10.
-
Wet- all clove, instantly reminds me of Lush Skinny Dip, but the Imp is warmer and sweeter.
Dries to cinnamon and vanilla, lovely comforting scent.
Not sure that I want to wear this as it is. It will make a great room scent and I think it will be great layered with vanilla notes.
ETA: This lasts for ever on the skin, I could still smell spicy vanilla 12 hours later.

Snow-Flakes
in Yules
This is lovely. Wet it's cold,crisp,green and minty. As it dries it loses some of the icy feel and softens to a green, herbal scent.
I want to wear this when the sun shines and feel cool, actually I want to drink this when the sun shines, it reminds me of a cocktail with loads of ice,cucumber and mint.

Bezoar
Wet - sweet beautiful spicy cardamom, makes me want to eat my wrist or make kulfi. This smells just like kulfi, sweet and creamy with tons of cardamom. This is my favourite stage but it fades far too quickly.
Dry- still cardamom, with wood now and just a little cream
Overall- this is a winner, just wish it had more more staying power

I've been collecting snakes for the past year. Today I finally got to try the last two in the set (Boomslang and Asp viper)
The winners for me are
Cottonmouth (don't usually like florals,but this one works)
and
Western Diamondback (dry and resinous, reminds me of Ahathoor)
Also good
King cobra (spicy snake)
Asp viper ( almond snake)
Banded sea snake (green snake)
Temple viper (incense snake)
Habu (bamboo snake)
Not so good
Green tree viper (toothpaste snake)
Coral snake (apple snake)
Australian copperhead (candy snake)
Death adder (medicinal snake)
Boomslang (too much chocolate and too like snake oil)
Never
Saw scaled viper (overwhelming ginger cinnamon)
Might change my mind when I've had longer to try some of them.

This is an amazing scent.
Wet it smells like a damp and mouldy cellar in a Georgian house. It really captures the fungal scent of rot and decay.
Dry it becomes softer, more powdery and a little touch of vetiver pops up.
Very soon it fades to sweet powder.
I can't imagine wearing this as perfume but I'm keeping the imp to sniff as it is such a evocative creation.
Where is my order? What is Click N Ship? How long does this take?

I placed my European order on 2nd Feb too and haven't had a CnS yet. I was hoping that it was the Paypal problem that Venneh said and that it would arrive this week.
