In bottle: Very herbal and clean. The lily is very strong.

immediately on skin: The scent is very green and herbal. The lily or another similar floral adds a clean quality to it. It smells a bit like dryer sheets.

After a few minutes: This has turned into a very crisp, clean scent. The only individual note I can pick out is the lily… It’s a bit powdery and strong.

Later on: This has faded into a generic lily scent with some light green notes. It’s nice, but unremarkable to my nose unfortunately.

In bottle: Slightly floral and sweet, with a very crisp green scent underneath. It’s a very bright scent.

immediately on skin: The sweet florals are still there, along with a hint of frutiness. Underneath it is a very strong, green note… probably the bamboo.

After a few minutes: Lilac with a bright fruity note with a sharp tinge of powder underneath.

Later on: This has turned into a slightly sweet lilac scent with an extremely light musky undertone. All the other notes seem to have disappeared completely. It’s pretty, but nothing special.

In bottle: The redwood and sandalwood is very strong. The patchouli smells a little “dirty” to me.

immediately on skin: It smells pine-y and slightly sweet. The tonka seems to be making the blend a little sweet, but it doesn’t come out that much.

After a few minutes: I can smell pine and the lemon peel now. It’s a very unisex to masculine scent.

Later on: This lingers on my skin as a soft, sweet piney wood scent. It’s become very light after a couple of hours, so I’m not sure about the staying power. But this scent just isn’t for me even if it did stick around.

In bottle: Cherry Cola.

Immediately on skin: VERY unusual. Smells a little like cola, almond, and some very sweet fruit like cherry or plum. I also get a bitter undertone.

After a few minutes: plum with a light wine scent and a touch of musk to keep it from being too sweet.

Later on: This has turned very sweet on me and I can really only smell the plum now. It’s definitely a bluish purple or indigo sweet scent. There is just a touch of musk, but I can barely detect it. The scent is not very strong, but it is definitely wafting quite a bit. It's very sweet and pleasant on me.

In bottle: Green, grassy, and sharp.

Immediately on skin: Very green scent with a light musk undertone. There is a sweet floral tone over the whole scent as well. Very strong and sharp.

After a few minutes: the scent turns from green to golden. A sweet scent with a green and almost musky undertone. Almost like honey, sweet grass, and light musk. Tangy and sticky-sweet at the same time. There's a small bit of very sweet floral coming through now as well.

Later on: This blend has softened quite a bit now. It’s very fresh, green, and sweet and I think there’s a touch of powder and a tiny bit of florals as well. It’s a very nice bright scent on me.

In the bottle: straight from the bottle (or imp in my case) I get a very salty, crisp scent that's a little like household cleaner. It's very strong and aquatic.

Wet on skin: Salty and musky. At first it smells very clean and crisp, but then the dragon's blood grounds it with a bit of earthiness.

After drying: A very clean scent, with the dragon’s blood giving a soft musky base. It’s earthy, but still very bright and salty. There's a slight sweet airy quality to it, but not in a floral or fruit way.

Overall impression: Very balanced clean scent with a touch of earthiness. It's quite lovely and I would try it again for sure.

Whew, my first review!

In the bottle: At first sniff, I get a very bitter and dusty scent... very dry and sharp. I don't sense a touch of sweetness at all.

Wet on skin: The scent is very bitter, with very strong wood notes. It smells a bit like cedar, just not as sweet. I think it's the musks slightly sweetening up the wood notes. It's very strong on me, and overpowering.

After drying: The wood has softened, but it’s still the strongest note in the blend. The dustiness lends a powdery dry note to it, and the musk softens and sweetens the wood notes just slightly. It's very strong, but has softened and sweetended quite a bit since I first applied it over an hour ago. Overall, I find this to be a very unisex scent leaning towards masculine.

Overall impressions: This scent reminds me of wood shavings that you find in pet stores. It's interesting but not something I would wear.

I haven't tried many blends, but I found Silence (in the Salon collection) to be a very nice, light fruity floral scent. It's very crisp and pretty. It's not available as an imp on the site by itself (only in the Salon: exhibit I imp pack) but you might be able to find on on the forum.
