This is gorgeous.  It's a sweet peachy incense.   Very pretty, soft and sweet without being cloying.  Added bonus- I can smell it ten hours after application.  

 

I love this.  It's a blast of champaca blossom, very sweet floral.  I know there is no tobacco in it but something is fooling my nose into believing that there is a little tobacco in there somewhere.  I think that this will be a dabbing scent rather than a slather (it could overpower with its sweetness) but it will be one I reach for frequently.  PS-  I am VERY grateful.  It would be sad not being able to afford IDAL products.   

 

Spicy and smoky.  It's a deep and husky fragrance (to me).   Definitely not for the forlorn but perfect for someone who likes a spicy fragrance.    This says evening to me.  

 

On application this scent is mint and cedar.  I don't get any patchouli or vanilla, just DREADED HAMSTER CAGE.   If you like cedar, you will love it.  It's just a resounding nope for me.  

 

ETA: 4 hours later...

 

Wait.  Hold the presses.  The hamsters have left town and taken their cage with them.  In its stead, they have left a soft combination of patchouli and vanilla.   If I can get through the cedar phase of this scent, it turns really lovely.  

 

Wow!  This is a WAKE UP...NOW! fragrance.  I love citrus scents, grapefruit in particular, and the very first thing I get is a squirt of super juicy grapefruit, yuzu and lemon.  Once it settles, the zing fades a bit and the mandarin and musk come out.   It softens and turns a bit soapy.  I like it.

I find this to be a very masculine fragrance- musk and dragon's blood and more musk. I love dragon's blood but this is a little too strong for me.

I am not getting any of the ash/smoke that others are talking about. All I get is orange blossom. This scent reminds me of soap in hotels. Not bad, but I think I will need to be more sparing in my application. This is pretty heady stuff.

Incredible. It smells just like a bowl of freshly cut strawberries. It is the most genuine fruit scent I have ever sniffed. I don't need to wear it. I just want to shove the bottle far enough up my nose so that it doesn't fall out and go on with my day. I would look silly though and before long, my nostrils would no longer match, so I will put it in a scent locket and keep the fresh strawberries with me all day long. SO GOOD.

I just got knocked back into the early 60s. This smells just like the bubble gum that I used to buy for a penny. (was it called Bazooka? I think it was) It is the first few flavorful chews that I loved so very much before it lost its flavor and I tossed it in the trash so I could do it all over again. I also really get the carnation and after a short time, it takes on a root beer scent. Then it goes soapy and fades pretty quickly.

I dislike butter notes and this one is cherries swimming in butter. It turns rancid fairly quickly. Do not like.

Jasmine and honeysuckle tap dancing in my nose. Delightful and heady and two of my favorite flower scents of all time.

 

Soon a milk note appears. Yuck. Get away from my flowers. Go bother some cookies.

 

Later... horrid milk is gone. Left behind is a softer version of my beloved dynamic floral duo. I really like it. Definitely a ladylike dab just a little bit kind of scent and not a drown yourself in it scent. That way, I will get 'hey honey, we're Jasmine and Honeysuckle. Nice to meet you' instead of 'YO! JASMINE AND HONEYSUCKLE HERE LIVING LARGE. WHAT? QUIET DOWN, MY ASS.'

It says it has fizzy champagne grape. That does not even begin to describe the effervescence. This is more shaken up cola spewing out of the bottle than champagne on me. And it has staying power for hours and hours. It is cheery and fun. I rather like it.

Wet, it is the most wonderful cacophony of scent. It is the proverbial imp box in a bottle. If it stayed like this, I don't think I would ever wear any other perfume. EVER. But it morphs.

 

Sharp herbal. Not so unpleasant that I want to scrub my arm until it bleeds but this is definitely not what I signed up for. Fortunately, again it morphs.

 

Several hours later, it is soft and powdery, a little incense-ish. I do like it but I do not see it as something I would want to wear daily. Maybe for those days when I simply cannot make up my mind as to what to wear. Then it will be perfect. A little bit of everything.

 

Anyone for a regular book one?

 

YES!

Travelling book and comic boxes would be AWESOME.

I just dumped a jar of pickles over my head. Why'd I do that? I HATE pickles.

I was so looking forward to this blend because I am the biggest gardenia fan. Unfortunately, the only gardenia I get in this scent is buried beneath a pile of rotting garbage.

 

Ick.

Anise. Buttered Pumpkin.

 

Noxious.

This stuff is NOXIOUS. It smells like early 1960's plastic baby doll head.

This definitely smelled like a woods in autumn as the leaves fall and the air turns crisp. Unfortunately, it turned into something so incredibly heavy and overpowering that I had to wash it off because it was invading my nostrils and making it difficult to breathe.

I used to worry about that too, but if you got notification from paypal that your payment was successful, then the lab got your order. If you don't hear from them with a CnS in a few weeks, I would take Numanoid's advice and send them an email. The lab has excellent customer service and you'll get a response from them quickly.

 

*jellus of your large order*

This initially lovely chocolate scent quickly and completely morphed into ATTACK OF THE DREADED HAMSTER CAGE.

 

That is all.

This started out as wet dirt. Fortunately, it began to morph almost immediately and what I am left with is a sultry musk with a hint of sweet jasmine.

 

I like it muchly.

I love this scent. In the beginning, it is mostly musk and seaspray, but then it softens and I can smell patchouli with a tinge of sarsaparilla. I can see how some would think it masculine. There's a tiny bit of rum at the end of the sniff.

I have only one word for this scent:
