Lots of plums, and then it dries to an herbal blend. Still full of plums, but not as foody.

The orris root and sandalwood are lovely, but the dragon's blood is too much.

I can definitely smell the lime and tangerine. When it dries, it ends up a powdery mint. Too foody for me.

Wet: sugary, a little boozy. Definitely a maple flavor. In fact it reminds me of the Macallan Amber liquor.

Dry: it's way too dark! It's not overly dark, but there's an aftertaste of darkness that just doesn't work for me. I'm so disappointed.

It's very fresh, clean, and citrusy.

In the bottle it smells of cherries, patchouli and cough syrup

It dries much better, into a sugared incense, reminiscent of Midnight on the Midway, which is a favorite. But the initial waft of cough syrup is too much.

OMG- this is happiness in a bottle!

It's straight up roses with resin, and it's gorgeous! There's a little throw which is very welcome. I just love this sceent

This turned out to be so musky on me! It's smoky, dark and very sexy, but mainly musky, which is a little odd, since there's no musk note listed.

Heather

It's wet and green and lovely, herbal, but not floral. It has a pleasant throw. It's raining today, and I think that is helping me love this scent even more. It's just a wonderful scent.

Smoky...chocolatey, all together too foody.

Woah-vetivert! I don't get the smokiness, but it's so dark, almost overpowering.

This is so rich! Opulent, heady, thick, earthy. Very nice

Deep, dark, earthy...very masculine. I think I would enjoy smelling this on a man. It doesn't smell too good on me.

First impression: hmmm...very nice. The florals are just lovely and the cardamom adds such a nice spice. Thankfully, it's not gone foody. It's nicely spicy, and floral. I'm going to have to try this a few more times, but this might just be the spicy floral that I've been looking for.

It's dark and somewhat burnt. Very strong. I don't think I like it.

It's an interesting green scent, but I really dislike peony, and it's gone sort of soapy as it dries.

This is certainly an indolent scent. Very heavy and lethargic.

Huh... I really can't smell anything with this....no, wait, there's the faintest hint of something. But I have no idea what it is.

Ugh. This scent wants to be more...I can tell there's more here, but I just can't smell it.

It's a nice floral. The lily of the valley is a little strong.

In the bottle it's a nice, velvety floral, but there's something in it that smells...off. I'm not sure what it is, but there's something in it that smells so dusty that I want to sneeze. Except there's no dust.

It's very fresh and the lemon verbena dominates. Unfortunately, it smells just like Pledge on me.

This is a very nice floral spoiled by bergamot. I really dislike bergamot.

It smells like dirt, and bitter chocolate, and a cellar.

There's a fieryness to this scent, and also a bubble-gum like sweetness. It almost instantly fades to a soft woodsy scent.

It doesn't smell so much Roman as Italian. And Italian as in Italian food. The bay and rosemary really dominate and it smells like my pantry. All I need now is a touch of oregano and I'm all set to cook dinner
