  1. The End of All Things: empty white musk and mint seeped with solemn lavender, doleful patchouli and vetiver, scythe-sharp yuzu and lime, with geranium bourbon, white sandalwood and calla lily.

     

    This starts off a syrupy sweet floral with a hint of bourbon. Something in this just smells like sugar!!!!! over all the other notes.


  2. Wow, this is super dark and sensual. Deep ambers, skin musk and a slight smokiness. Vetiver in this is very well behaved, hanging in the background to add a slight, sexy kick. Not for me personally, but beautiful.


  3. … His ofrenda is the scent of the lightless deep: the glorious, unknowable gloom of the ocean floor.

     

    This starts off as sweet, sweet melon but thankfully soon mellows out to a fresh, clean breeze scent mixed with sweet melon. Great for summer!


  4. Mm, this is fresh, green and woodsy. Not exactly a perfume scent, but I enjoy it. I would also say this is lighter and more gender-neutral than some of the other "wood" blends the Lab has--this is a sunshine-y enchanted forest, not an ominous dark grove.


  5. A deep, dark green floral garden in the midst of the night. Almost aquatic. Sweet florals mixed with herbal greens and something musky lurking beneath. Pretty, but not quite for me. Very much in the same vein as Dark Rosaleen, which I love.


  6. This is a powdery, elegant floral. I get primarily powdered rose--not in a bad way, but an old-fashioned, understated way, like a little girl trying on her mother's perfume and feeling glamorous. Very pretty, but if I'm honest with myself, not something I would buy or reach for.


  7. Interesting and unexpected. I get a sweet lemon-y note over a sweet, slightly musky base (very faint)--this must be kyphi which is not a note I'm familiar with. Not unpleasant, but not outstanding.


  8. This starts off sweet, sweet almond marzipan over a red musk that is almost cherry-like. The almond fades quickly, leaving behind a sweet afternote layered over a skin-like musk. Very pretty.


  9. Earth sorceress and mother of Mordred, she is, in essence, the harbinger of King Arthur's doom and the downfall of Camelot. She is a sister, or sister-self, to Morgan Le Fay. A bouquet of five night-blooming flowers deepened by dusky violet, purple fruits and the barest breath of medieval incenses.

     

    Violet goes off on me...a headache-y, shreiking, old-lady, sour powdered white floral.
