Wet, this is a zesty men's cologne--clean and fresh, slightly aquatic over green notes. As it dries, the aquatic note calms down and warms up a bit--this is the metal. A surprisingly good men's scent!

Wet, this is straight powdered honey--always sour as the Lab's honey tends to go on me. As this dries, the hemlock comes out and lends the powdered sour honey a dank note. Quite unpleasant.

Wet, I get primarily cedar--a deep wood note--as this dries, it fades a bit, but is still overwhelmingly cedar.

Wet, this is a heady floral with strong incense notes. As it dries, it stays mostly the same, but calms down and blends better. A thick, sticky floral blend. Not for me.

Wet, this is coconut and spiced rum. As this dries, the coconut recedes into a background note and this is mostly spices over sugary rum. Not for me.

Incense and pencil shavings.

This is a lush, uninhabited tropical island--very true to character--salty, aquatic green floral.

One of those squishy, sugary melt-on-your-tongue after dinner mints--sugar and mint--with a hint of floral in the background.

Dark, heady lily. Very lush, fresh, green and ever so slightly spicy.

Patchouli mainly, darkened by vetiver and a spicy, tickle-the-nose cinnamon top note. SO NOT FOR ME.

A breath of smoky patchouli hovering over currant and green moss. Very woodsy but strangely sweet.

Sweet, golden amber and vanilla. A richer Lyonnesse.

Very pretty, bright floral. Smells like something from LUSH! Lily is the key note in this, but is well behaved. Shining white lily over a bed of forest greens and a hint of sweet forest fruit.

Smells exactly like the scent list: skin, grass, and berries. Heavier on the dry grass than I would like, a little sense of dry hay. Something in the skin note goes slightly aquatic on me, while the berry stays true and sweet. Would love this if only the grass note weren't so heavy!

This is so pretty! Bright, juicy but not foody orange over a soft white musk and sandalwood base, and sweet, ripe mango in the background adding sweetness, feminine and light and pretty. A shame this is discontinued!

Definitely a strong lotus--kind of a cool,aquatic, powder floral--with a shreiking sweet background.

Wow, a lily that actually works on me! This is heady, lovely lily, but not the quite the shrieking white floral I'm used to, this is fleshier and more well grounded, there's something sweet grounding this lily. It's a fruity floral that's very pretty and bright--great for spring/summer!

A vaguely alcoholic note hovering over a plasticky, artificial peach.

A clean, gender neutral scent. I get a cologne base and primarily lavender with a hint of mint/citrus (a lavender mojito?).

This is light, fresh wet florals--a beautiful blend, with the tea rose taking center stage--but the teak poking out from beneath is just off on me.

Interesting. Something a little musky, murky and something twisted and sweet. Black licorice comes to mind.

This smells strangely like coca cola on me. Beneath that, this is a warm, rich foodie scent with spiced notes. Something akin to the Halloweenie or Yule foodie scents, not for me personally.

Sweet wine, but there's something sour under this that actually goes soapy on me, so it smells like a glass of red wine part way through the dishwasher.

This is all salty aquatic and evergreen pine-esque notes--it smells incredibly fresh and clean, but a little nauseatingly so, like too much soap.

Powdery floral with a cloying, sticky sweet note.
