A heady, sweet tarty pumpkin dessert or diner. A zing of orange, maple syrup and pulpy sugared pumpkin are the strongest notes for me. I'm not used to maple syrup and it's making me feel a little ill here - though if you're a fan this is TOTALLY for you. It's not unpleasant, personally just a little too heavy on that. That said, there's a nice undercurrent of spices (CINNAMON!!). It's not loud or in your face, but a yummy waft of pumpkiny goodness!

I may be mistaken and mixing it up with another smelly thing, but it weirdly, vaguely reminds me of the other miss spink from what I remember of that. To me this is is kind of a dusty, strong light orange floral - kind of an old lady's perfume? The other miss spink, but less strong and cloying. ..In the imp it's fresher and juicier; a far greener floral scent reminiscent of strolling along in one of those indoor buildings meant to mimic the climate of a rainforest from a zoo. Weird, but enjoyable. ...My skin just turns it upside down. That said, now that it's dry i am smelling the snake oil if i get really close. I really, REALLY want to like this, but i'm afraid i just don't... It gets a liiiitttle better after wearing it for a little while, it goes slightly more dark towards blood-orange and a little spicier; i'm starting to believe snake oil may be able to hear my thoughts, but it's unfortunately not enough to save it for me. Too bad, but awesome to finally give it a try!

Ohhh really nice. Indeed fresh lemony laundry and green tea. In the imp i get all the notes clearly, but on my skin the honeysuckle takes a backseat (usually amps on me, so interesting...) and it gets and even more "clean cotton" feel to it. It kinda stays there as it's dried up, it's a little more soapy than at the start. Still very nice!

The sweetest bakery you've ever been to. Maybe a bakery in some kind of alternate universe, or a scent you'd find in a bakery-themed theme park portion. It goes all kindsa weird on my skin and i wish i knew why. I wish i could love this.

Oh, delicious! Spicy cherry candy indeed! Hard candy at that. On drydown the candy-ness of this goes away and i'm left with a lovely clove and dragon's blood. Very nice, but i loved that wet stage!

Maybe i'm losing it, but this feels a bit like a watered down morocco to me. That, but add red musk. It's very nice, but this is no where near strong enough on my skin unfortunately for my taste...

Oh man this is so much sweeter than what i expected, going off from the name alone! It's pretty sharp and strong when wet, able to pick out all the notes no biggie. I'm only vaguely getting the metallic note that others are describing so far. It's a squishy soft blend of creamy white spicy clouds, grounded by sappy wood. However on drydown it goed a liiiittle darker and then my skin eats the sweeter notes, aw. Still nice- the wood, bay rum and spicyness are now very soft but still there. Lovely!

What the heck! I could've sworn I left a review on this back in 2015/16 but I must've dreamt it. I distinctly remember this perfume and I quite liked it; clean (just shaved!), well taken care of man who uses maybe just a little too much soap(!!), and may or may not be concealing a gun. ...Or is that the metal on the walking cane you're smelling?

In the bottle this is straight up sharp clove, gets more depth on the skin. The sugar, although not in the foreground, grounds this. And the plum/sassafras give this a wild, feral edge.

I'm not sure why my skin is doing this to me, but i'm getting laundry detergent. Gotta wash this off!! ?

Ugh I HATE this in the bottle, it's a horribly strong sticky note of wine and amber, yuck! Thank goodness it morphs on my skin to something velvety vetiver, cassis beries, and fruity floral undertones. Still don't love it, but i have to admit that it has some sort of cornucopia-esque quality.

I was surprised to learn i like this; it's dark, evil and in your face, but it's got a sweetness from the tonka and geranium that I don't remember smelling before from the lab. It's lightly dirt-y and has a bit of a straight up alcohol-y alcohol note. Just interesting enough not to run away from!

This reminds me of those honey cereals, it's almost creepy how much it smells like that on me. It's sliiightly reddish, the honey, saffron and cardamom make this foody on me i'm guessing.

Wax? A sharp wax and a soft, green sandalwood.

Sweet goat milk with a soft bourbon and patchouli. Perfumy- not gourmand on me.

Agree with Patina, same plum as a shadow in the elevator - paired with an inky musk, a surprisingly soft opoponax, and the labdanum and honey giving this a herbal quality.

Reminds me vaguely of Elf, It's got the same wild berries on me, a soft white sage and a smooth dark undertone. Masculine and fresh.

Just a deep, dark incense on me, with a hint of the opalescent vanilla. Very pretty though I wish it brought out more of the notes on me..

A fresh, sensual mix of florals and sandalwood. The honey is slightly waxy on me, and the sandalwood is "red" on me.

There's nothing beach about this on me! I'm guessing the ambergris morphs on me into something sweet, there's that moonlit musk - alltogether it becomes like something that reminds me of some nights in my childhood, outside on the open field near the forest. Odd.

A slightly spicy(?) lilac with a milky tea softening this up. Simple yet so interesting!

Agree with everyone aforementioned, a lovely frankincense with a slightly herbal tomato leaf. Prettyyyy.

Don't know if I smelled cherry blossom before, so I can't really reference it to anything, but this is a blueish pink floral, it's got the same 'electric' note in it as midnight on the midway.

A smooth red leather. Very subdued though, I have to get CLOSE to sniff this at all.

Completely dissapears on me, so i'll go off what I can smell in the bottle; Strong ambergris, a ghostly white veil around a plop of beeswax.
