Eos has been one of my favorites for ages and I feel slightly ashamed that I haven't reviewed it yet, because it deserves as much pimping as it can get. On me, it's mostly a gorgeous honeysuckle, with a very, very faint green undertone that allows it to be sweet and rich without getting cloying. As I think someone else said, it's a little like working in a garden, smelling mainly the flowers but also the stems (but not the dirt). It's in my top three, and as soon as there's a lull in the LEs I want to buy, I'm snagging a bottle.

For the first two seconds, Dorian is pure Pine Sol on me, but the sugar and vanilla kick in underneath it almost immediately. It eventually becomes a warm, sweet lemon, without any of the acidity I usually associate with citrus. The musks don't really appear in scent form, but just act as a smoothing agent. I can't detect any cologne, and there's only tea if I strain my imagination. This is lovely.
