Leviticus 27:19

Coffee, cedarwood, and benzoin mostly, with the agarwood smoothing it out. I don't smell the nutmeg but it's definitely making my skin itch a little. Hoping for something more incensey and spicy, but this is still very nice. A sleek, neutral, cologne-like scent. -
I for one joyfully embrace my generation's new moniker. Sweet, sugary, gummy-bear-esque blackcurrant, herbal cistus, and inky, musky oudh (if you're afraid of oudh, try this one out - very gentle). Candy and woods. I went back and forth on getting this one and I'm definitely happy I went for it!

Orange, spice, and booze. Sharp and nose-tickling. Almost a perfect dupe for Lush's Karma, just lacking a touch of the warmth.
-
Frosting and vanilla cake and fizzy, gingery apple cider. Wisteria and a hint of the red velvet's cocoa in the background. Wish the cake notes were more prominent, but overall a very nice holiday scent.

Cherry-honey, myrrh, and flowers. Sweet and mysterious.
-
Benzoin, BERGAMOT, and fir mostly. Woody, musky, and sweet.

What it says on the tin. Simple, sweet, and earthy. Very nice.

The pinot, rose, and jasmine holding hands with the myrrh and sandalwood trailing along behind. No patchouli. -
Just chocolate and sandalwood on me - woody, nutty, bittersweet.
-
Buttery, creamy butterscotch! Sweet and boozy.
-
Sandalwood dust, with the rose + amber combo totally reading as cedar at first but turning to a very light floral and an amber that smells exactly like real amber resin (which I have been looking for for AGES. This is my favorite bpal amber note).
-
Mostly civet and red musk with a hint of medicinal opium. Not as strong as expected, but I think that is an advantage for this one given how strong these notes generally tend to be. Subtly animalistic and hard to pin down.
-
Warm musk + leather and herbal sage + cedar set atop a wonderful vanilla-lavender marshmallow. I love this exactly as much as I thought I would. Which is A LOT.
-
Merlot, musk, and a hint of leather. No flowers on me. Sweet, lavish grape candies.
-
Fluff (vanilla-y cotton on me), bright pumpkin, a bit of cinnamon, and clove clove clove! This is so goooood - like the lovechild of Jack and Game Over
-
2019 version Pumpkin cake and a thick smear of cream frosting (which maybe has coconut in it?) and dusty, powdery cardamom. Not as spicy as I expected, but I'm fine with that!
-
Mostly kelp and salt on me, with leather in there somewhere... not bad it's dangerously close to tipping over to a "febreezed bathroom" smell...
-
Woody salt and spicy, spicy rum that smells, somehow, like bubblegum! That probably comes from the "prostitute's perfume." Like a seaside candle shop! Edit: aged about 2 months this smells a lot like Chanel No. 5!

Incense shop! Floral-type dragon's blood weighted by soft leather.

Just the lavender, gardenia, lilac, and ylang ylang for me. Smells like the backyard of my childhood home in summer. Just the lavender, gardenia, lilac, and ylang ylang for me. Smells like the backyard of my childhood home in summer.
