doomsday_disco Report post Posted August 21 Often found napping in office cubicles and unrented studio apartments, this dragon is too apathetic to be evil and too bored to bother with goodness. She doesn’t hoard gold; she collects neutral-toned throw pillows, unread magazines, and Live Laugh Love-branded décor. Their scales are a rainbow of oatmeal, sandalwood, almond milk, tea-stained vanilla, and undyed wool in a muted eggshell finish. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bheansidhe Report post Posted September 1 (edited) Are you on the fence about this one? Grab it anyway; someone else will gladly take it off your hands if you decide it doesn't suit. Is it a chewy, not-too-sweet vanilla oatmeal cookie? Is it almond milk-infused tea? Is it a cozy wool sweater freshly pulled from the wooden drawer? Yes. It's lightly desserty, but rides the line between the other notes; I'd call it half-gourmand. It's cozy, warm, softly sweet, and snuggly to the nose, with just a faint suggestion of sandalwood and baking spices.

Geminirubyshoes Report post Posted September 19 Idk how there are not more reviews for this! When I saw Puddin’ rave about it I knew I needed to have it. This is definitely very snuggly and comforting, like wearing your SO’s favorite hoody or being wrapped in a soft blanket while sitting in a warm kitchen. I’ve been wearing it a lot for bedtime. I feel like the tea stained vanilla & sandalwood are the most detectable notes if I had to get technical about it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
doomsday_disco Report post Posted September 24 (edited) I went the decant route on this one despite everyone yelling from the rooftops to get this, because there are some wool notes that don't work out on me. I'm not upset I went the decant route, but this is definitely the best scent I have tried from this year's Dragon Con offerings, beating out the five scents I blind bottled. Greige Dragon starts off strong on the oatmeal, which is lightly spiced. It's accompanied by a splash of creamy almond milk and a dash of lemony tea (I believe it is the Lab's white tea note -- I tested Ceaselessly By My Side the Demon Stirs on the back of my left hand and Greige Dragon on the back of my right one, and these two do not share the same tea note, and the tea in that blend is far stronger). The almond milk and tea are quick to fade once the scent is dry, and then the sandalwood emerges and lurks behind the oatmeal. The sandalwood in this is not a dry, white variety (woot!), and the oatmeal gets warmer and sweeter over time -- I swear there's some maple in here that my skin is bringing out, and I'm not mad about it -- it goes really well with the sandalwood in the way that the maple sap complements the teak and cherry in Carved Wooden Bawdy House. These end up being the dominant notes by the end of the day, with the almond milk briefly returning for a bit before retreating once more, and I think I'm getting a little wool in the background, but there's nothing laundry-aisle about the note (huzzah!). This is such a cozy, comforting scent! I'll definitely be hanging onto my decant of this one. Edited September 24 by doomsday_disco Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kittystryker Report post Posted October 5 I got this when I was just starting to get a cold, which forced me to wait a couple of days to really give it a sniff- and it was completely worth it! I definitely get the oatmeal and the vanilla upfront on my skin, and then I get the sandalwood and a little bit of tea, along with it smells a little fresh to my nose? This feels like a oversized sweater and cozy tea in your hands while you’re sitting on a window seat looking out at the rain. I absolutely love it and I’m so glad that I got a bottle!
