  1. It’s a little bitter.

    I’m afraid nothing gentle ever grows in this land, Edith – You need a measure of bitterness – not to be eaten. To survive…

     

    This is an evil old lady perfume. I don’t mean that as an insult! It’s very evocative of beauty and resentment, something once glamorous that has turned into poison. Miss Havisham or Norma Desmond would wear this sort of perfume.


  2. In the bottle: Very complex and layered. The chocolate and red wine is a great combination, with a floral background. Seems like a date night perfume.

     

    Dry: Chocolate, wine and white florals. I keep thinking how sophisticated this perfume smells, almost too grown-up or classy for me!


  3.  

    In the bottle: Soft and floral at first, but then something rich and mysterious hits that I’m still trying to identify.

     

    Dry: Increasingly foody, which I see as a good thing. Like a vanilla and chocolate cake with hints of strawberry. If I could eat this scent, I would.


  4. In the bottle: Oo, fresh fruit! A little like Alice, but more outdoorsy. I'm a sucker for pink grapefruit, and that's what I'm getting now.

     

    Dry: Banana. It's the weirdest thing, but this whole scent has turned to powdery banana. It's almost a candy smell, with some hints of musk. The longer I wear it, the less I like it.


  5. A light, pure scent: white musk, green tea, aloe and lemon.

     

    In the bottle: Fresh and tart! Nowhere near as creepy as its name would suggest.

     

    Dry: The lemon has overtaken everything else, in a sour, cleaning-product way. It's not a scent I dislike, but not really one I would choose to be surrounded with.
