Did I review this already? I thought I did. Anyhooo. Oh. ooooooh yessssss. ssssssnake. Ok this seems to have more red musk than my bottles of Snake Oil. What is not to love about extra spicy snake oil? And then it begins to dry down into this cozy dredges of a pumpkin spice latte. There isn't much coffee but that suits this just fine.

Cinnamon cologne. Sexy Santa?I don't get any coffee. But it is a lovely cinnamon! I finally bought myself a locket, so now I can wear cinnamon perfumes.

I smelled this and immediately felt I was giving Eeyore a great big hug. Oh you sweet sad goth boy with your pink bow and dislike of small talk, you are loved.This scent smells sooooo soft, and is a grey pink lavender moment. Lavender but make it *pastel*. This scent feels like being protected and a sweet gentleness like being carried to your room after a long car ride. This scent felt like childhood and was so nostalgic I almost cried the first time I wore it.

2025 version: Spicy red musk! I tend to amp red musk and spices, so I don't get the floral that other reviews talked about. Maybe this year is different? This is so smooth and smells amazing. I kind of can't wait for it to age and the red musk to get even deeper. This is my perfect Halloween/Fall scent.

I don't get pumpkin from this. It's creamy vanilla honey. It smells amazing though. Although, it's very strong. I wore this and a friend thought I had accidentally spilled a bunch of honey somewhere. She kept asking "do you need to clean up the honey before we leave?"

Photorealistic coffee beans. I used to work at a coffee shop where they roasted their own beans. This is what it smelled like when they would bring in a big barrel of freshly roasted coffee beans. No cream. And this is a blend where the "other" notes stand up to the snake oil. It is also a bit of a morpher as it goes from coffee to snake oil and ends up a very realistic coffee perfume. I have never found a coffee note that doesn't go weird on me...until this one.

Cool bone and ash. Underneath I smell a bit of fire, but more of a smoky ashy fire. This is what I think Princess Mononoke would smell like as she rushed into battle. It's a very emotional scent. It smells of cold and death, but there is something awakening underneath (mossy stones?) and a reminder that in destruction there is creation. From death comes life.

This smells like I crushed up those hard meringues and a porcelain doll and mixed all the powder together. And then I took a taupe suede leather poof and patted it on my arm. At first it was definitely powdery, but then it began getting a bit more creamy as it warmed up on my skin. I may need a bottle of this. It's weird and nice all at the same time. Edit to add: It reminded me, as I wore it, of Batty Lace, but without the caramelized leather....that did not work on me. But it's what I thought Batty Lace would smell like? It has a brittleness to it that makes me think of bits of hardened lace breaking.

This is so pretty! The black velvet reminds me a bit of the sleek black musk from Black Silk Orchid, and the red lame reads as red musk to me at first. This is an unoffensive rose, and for someone who does not get along with rose all that often, this is STUNNING. I don't get anything plasticky. It's well balanced.

This smells like...papaya? Or guava. It's definitely fruity. It smells great, but nothing like what I expected. There is no patchouli or smoked vanilla. Not sure how this happened. I've tried this on various parts of my body to see if the scent somehow changes and nope. Tropical lotion.

Oh THIS IS THE STUFF. I smell like the day after sitting around a bonfire. There might be a little bit of beer, but it's mostly sweetened wood smoke and dried leaves. I usually don't like anything with dried leaves but this is straight up magical. I've been wearing this almost every day since getting it. I layer it with gingerbread sometimes.

Oh did I never review this?!? I bought a decant of this at a time when I wasn't into incense scents. I also don't think I was in the correct head space to really understand this scent, and I wasn't ready to really face it. Recently, I went to try it again and it became an instant favorite. This is my everyday scent now. It's a dark slinky incense that smells dangerous, and isn't sweet. AT ALL. I am a survivor. Other people of marginalized genders saved me and became my community. This scent absolutely resonates with strength and righteous anger rooted in love, protection and compassion in the face of injustice and oppression. I'm buying a bottle, and I'm glad I finally was brave enough to give this scent another try. I honestly get a bit overwhelmed with emotion reviewing this one. It's something very special.

This smells like the cotton candy note from Pink Lovebird mixed with the Strawberry note of Pink Moon 2024. This is lovely strawberry note. It doesn't have the Nesquik pink milk vibes of Pink Moon 2024 and I think it might be less sweet somehow. I have wild strawberry and patchouli and will definitely have to add this for an extra punch of strawberry with that one. I'm glad I have both.

I found the lil coconut floof I've been searching for! If you want a sweet coconut almost marshmallow soft goodness this is it. I'm gonna layer this with EVERYTHING but especially TKO. It isn't even the strongest coconut. But it is so cozy.

I think this is the OG edition edible G-string from 2018. Oh snap. This is the sweetest smut. This smut is so sweet that for a minute I'm like "is this smutty" and then it is. Like I'm reading a book and halfway through I'm like "oh lordy this is SMUT". I adore red musk and this is no exception. I'm so glad I grabbed a bottle. I'm also glad I grabbed that smutty book off the shelf. I'm so happy with this scent.
