Dirty scents.

I tried Death Cap on Saturday. It starts out smelling like freshly turned earth -- much like Graveyard Dirt. Then I can smell something else in it, which I'm willing to believe is the mushroom. Then the mushroom scent takes a sweet turn, which overwhelms the rest of the oil until it starts to smell like cupcakes.

 

I'm tempted to nickname it Picnic at the Cemetery. :whip:

 

 

I'm trying out Premature Burial today. The green is doing odd things to me. Ever smelled frozen spinach being boiled? That was a peculiar stage of this oil.

 

Penny Dreadful also has that wonderful Graveyard Dirt base, but soon includes semi-sweet florals. I would consider this a true scent-garden oil.

 

Graveyard Dirt ~ I have a bottle, with three more on the way. This actually smells like freshly turned earth, and I was first aware of it as an LE scent. This may end up being my default "working" oil, though I'd need to research the appropriateness of using it thus.

All these dirt scents ... I thought I had mine narrowed down. I tried Penny Dreadful & Premature Burial - both smelled lovely, but the orchid in Burial tilted me toward PD, since I'm not overly fond of orchid. Then along came Death Cap, which is gorgeous long-lasting floral dirt.

 

I didn't even think I liked dirt scents! I was wrong ... ;)
