  1. this is just a fun scent. I kept telling everyone around me, "I smell like a banana - in a good way" It starts out with this lovely, fresh, banana smell but then the other players start to join the party. The guava made an appearance and then a sugary musk settled in with occasional wisps of banana. Totally out of my wheelhouse and really glad I sprang for it


  2. The minute I smelled this I thought of Scarecrow Turned Philosopher and now I can't shake that scent association.  It has a vague, minty thing going for me, maybe the tea.  After it dries it becomes a lovely blend that is bright and forward.  I don't get much, if any smokiness, which is a bummer because I love the smoky smells.  Overall, I'm not sorry I got a blind bottle


  3. In the bottle, it has that slightly damp, slightly decaying leaf pile with a lovely vanilla, sweet smell layered over it.  It smells like kicking piles of leaves outside, and smelling a fresh batch of sugar cookies coming out of the oven.

     

    First time I applied, I way overdid, and it was kind of headache inducing.  Very sweet with a heavy mouldering smell.

     

    I retried with a much lighter touch, and now it is beautiful both in the bottle and to wear.  On me, it is too strong to wear to scent-adverse locations, but for snuggling up at home - it's wonderful.


  4. At first smell, it just seemed odd to me, almost foody - but without any specific association.

     

    This is just a glorious tropical smell to me. I can't pick out individual notes (what does pimento even smell like?). At first, it's very rich and slightly sweet, but the smoky, spicy notes pick up pretty quickly.

     

    It is a surprise hit for me. I'm so glad I bought a bottle blind.
