    Snake Oil

    I decided to get this as an imp a while back ago, because it's the most popular scent and why not indulge on it? I realize now that I've made a terrible, grave mistake in doing so. I want 12 bottles of this, all aged at different times like a fine wine. Out of the Imp: It smells of a gorgeous incense, and reminds me vaguely of my local mystic shop that always has soothing music and incense seeped into the carpet. Don't get me wrong, either, I love that place. Note though, it did take a while to age and get to that smell. When I first opened it a few months ago, it was just a slap to the face of spice. After Trying It: Thereeeee it is, the spiced vanilla I was waiting for. The incense is still there, but there's definitely a nice vanilla to it that I love. Reminds me of the coffee that I drink that has way too much creamy spicy vanilla goodness in it. Although, what's odd is that different people get different smells of it on me. My friend said it smells like baby powder, while one of my former coworkers said I smelled really good one day and I had a little bit of this on. I'd prefer the latter, however, seeing as I would've ever want to smell like baby powder. (One of my most hated smells.) Needless to say, I can see how this one would be popular. I think since it aged, there's less baby powder too, so that's always a plus. Definitely on my list of purchasing a full bottle of someday.

    I got this as a frimp in one of my orders, I can't remember which, but my initial thought was: Berries. So many berries. Out of the Imp: As I said, a whole lot of berries. It was so overpowering that I thought it'd be too much, so I let it age for a good while. (I can't remember how long, either.) When I came back to it, it's almost like those berries fermented and became wine, because that's exactly what it smelled like now! It was odd to me, that a perfume could do that. After Trying It: I found out that berry/wine scents do nothing to me, and all I have is complete honey on my wrist now. I get small hints of floral, but the honey just took the show. Good news is, it's not a bad one, though. I'm not much a fan of honey, but if I ever feel it, I'll pick up this perfume again. (As a smalls side note, I was also a bit disappointed that that's all I got after trying it, because I absolutely love the smell of wine.)
