SmellsPrettyGood2Me Report post Posted March 22 I not-so-silently wished for a teak forward scent in this collection and my wish came true! The acidity of the teak is counterweighted by a strong honeysuckle note, and the "polish" comes in the form of just a touch of waxy lemon. This scent is Snow White running across a mossy forest floor in a swishy dress, carrying the stolen Mirror on the Wall. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gentle-twig Report post Posted April 15 (edited) Wow… I was kind of unimpressed by this one fresh out of the mail but it is really settling into something spectacular. Cavorting, indeed! This is one joyful, tumbling scent: wild mosses and a gorgeous “wildflower” style honey made bright and airy by the red silk brocade. Underneath is dry, mulchy, teakwood. Totally agree with the woodland fantasy vibe mentioned above, especially the “running” part! Like running barefoot through the most enchanting, sun-dappled deciduous forest over mosses and twigs with no regard for how you might be getting scratched up or what might be getting caught in your hair. It’s a somewhat odd interpretation of the visual data of the artwork because of the outdoorsiness of the scent, but Lesbians Cavorting is true to the spirit of that carelessly tossed aside crumpled paper. Out of its fellow Lupers, Lesbians Cavorting has definite overlap with “The Fox Spirit’s Jest,” which is ironically a little more fussy and buttoned up. Even its earthiness seems more self-serious than the frothy mosses Lesbians Cavorting to me. I have been collecting red silk scents despite not even being so wild about the accord on its own; the lab’s silk notes just seem to add life to any of their playmates. This is different enough from my others that it might warrant a spot in my collection. I just need to decide how many bottles I am able to limit myself to from this out of this world update. I mean, how could I pass up this kind of carefree joy in a bottle? Honey lovers, moss lovers, silk lovers, and teak lovers, rejoice !
