LiberAmoris Report post Posted April 5, 2019 A vivacious squirt of decay: viscous blackcurrant juice and pomegranate rind with sweet labdanum, rose attar, and a thin splat of motor oil. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
spookyumbrella Report post Posted May 17, 2019 Pretty much all blackcurrant and pomegranate on me. Very deep purple and fruity. I dont know what motor oil smells like, but I dont pick up on anything oily or mechanical at all - just fruit! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zankoku_zen Report post Posted May 31, 2019 Blackcurrant and pomegranate on wet, but as it dries, I get whiffs of rose, and teeny smidge of motor oil. It's mainly dark purple rose blend with just enough of a whiff of motor oil to prevent it from being entirely in the fruity or rose variety. Good throw and wear length.

InaraRedCloak Report post Posted December 26, 2019 Date December 25.2019 In the bottle, I get a dark pomegranate like in Horrid Mysteries and a touch of asphalt oiliness. I don't test out any of the "motor oil" scents. I've only tried out Black Ice before On skin wet: the pomegranate is a bit more sweeter than Horrid Mysteries and isn't so bitter. I get the whiff of roses coming through. The rest of the notes sort of mellow out on my skin and blend into the background. Dry 30+ mins: Everything is blending together and mellowing out. I don't think this scent is going to have a lot of staying power with my skin chemistry. Worn 3+ hours: I mostly have rose and pomegranate left over. It reminds me of Persephone. The other scents never really shined through. They might have faded into my skin chemistry. This was a nice scent, but not impressive enough for a full bottle. Final thoughts: Nice but I have other pom/roses I like better. If you're a fan of Persephone, or had hoped that Horrid Mysteries was less bitter, you might want to try this one.
