Another big one:

Aries -- this actually sounds like a nice combination, but I’m concerned about the black pepper and dragon’s blood overpowering everything else. I’ll read the reviews instead.

Ides of March 2007 -- I don’t really want cologney scents, and the reviews for the previous version made it sound too masculine for me. But this was a favorite for many and I’m glad old favorites pop back up.

Ostara -- another blend of a bunch of cool-sounding ingredients, but there’s a lot of florals and I think I’ll order Fire Pig instead for my “spring fling” with fruit instead of flowers.

Pink Moon -- this was a huge debate for me before the update, as I have a sniffie of the last Pink Moon and was really waffling on ordering a bottle if the formula was the same. The previous version reminded me of Love’s Baby Soft with extra flowers. However this version is different and carnation, while sugared, goes way too spicy-strong on me most of the time. Too bad.

Roux-Ga-Roux -- pretty cool concept (a Mardi Gras curse!) but too many plants.

 

And more cool General Catalog blends:

Calico Jack -- while I would love to order this for the name/image alone, I’m sure all I’ll get is detergent. I’ll read reviews to see if it’s more complex.

Poisoned Apple -- this reminds me of the Snow White ride at Disneyland, it was considered a scarier “dark ride” that everyone rides through in those pod-type cars on a track. At one point you turned a corner and there was a mannequin of the Wicked Queen dressed as the Old Woman and she’s holding out the poisoned apple. Soon we realized if you reached out far enough you could quickly grab the apple! Yoink! So many of my high-school friends had little souvenir plastic apples. Sorry, Disneyland workers, who had to replace the apples! ANYWAY. The red apple with the hemlock sounds good, as I really liked Hemlock by itself.

Bien Loin d’Ici -- red musk, honey, Moroccan spices, everything sounds good, can’t wait to read reviews.

Croquet -- nice fizzy citrus, and I don’t think I’ve ever seen a pink lime :)

The Dodo -- This one might be nice too, we’ll see *eyes cassia suspiciously*

Knave of Hearts -- Roses? ‘Nuff said :)

Queen Alice -- err, what’s sandy cider and wooly wine? I won’t get this because of the carnation anyway.

51 -- cool, an alien scent! I definitely want to read reviews of this one (;) X-Files theme)

Squirting Cucumber -- wonder if this is similar to the previous Blue Moon? That was very fresh cucumber-like on me.

Voodoo Lily -- cool name, but I don’t like straight-up floral much except for rose.

Brown Jenkins -- this sounds pretty nice, another lighter incense-type.

The Deep Ones -- another detergent one, probably. But what does crushed coral smell like?

In conclusion: I ordered bottles of Fire Pig, Boomslang and Western Diamondback :)
