  1. I searched, but couldn't find exactly what I want. I am looking for something really nutty, like a cross between Lush's Utterly Nutterly and The Body Shop's Nut Bubble Bath. I don't know what kind of nuts are in UN, but I love it so. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    International Shipping Info+Questions

    Nah, I use my credit card through PayPal. I think it's just referring to those who don't have PayPal but who still want to use credit.

    International Shipping Info+Questions

    Hmmm I'd assume it's 5, because if you got 4 bottles and a six-set of imps it would be 5. I'd email the lab and see if they'd let the 2 imps sneak in under 4 items...
  4. It must be the hazelnut in UN, because typically I'm not an almond fan. I liked Dana O'Shee ok but it was too much like Marziban for me. Too sweet. Almonds tend to remind me of cherries. So if I could find a good deep hazelnut scent, I'd be in heaven.

    Aparantly, Pumpkin Patch counts as 1 item.

    Bed of Nails

    Everyone else can describe this scent so much better than I can. I do want to say that it strongly reminds me of CKone. It's very similar. I like this, but it's too masculine for me.

    Gypsy Queen

    Gypsy Queen is really pretty. It's juicy and dry and smoky at the same time. Wow, this is really nice. I can really smell berries in this. I really like Gypsy Queen, it's really beautiful!

    Snake Charmer

    I can definitely see the Snake Oil comparison with this one. It's soft and pretty with a hint of amber and vanilla. I really like it but it's too similar to Snake Oil to warrant more than my imp.

    Fire Eater

    Fire eater is...strange. Spicy, floral, soapy, cinnamon and something. Mostly spice when it's wet and soap when it's dry. Something in it really reminds me of glycerine soap. It smells too chemical-y for me.

    Medicine Show

    This is spunky! The ginger is very strong. Medicine Show almost smells bubbly, citrussy. It's really cool and fun. I like it a lot!

    Torture King

    Ahh, the smokey scent. I do not do well with smokey scents. It smells like...pine (?maybe the lemon) and smoke. I'm not a fan of this one really. It is a mysterious, dark scent, but it's really not for me.

    House of Mirrors

    House of Mirrors is really beautiful. It's clear, clean and shiny. I love it! It reminds me of a perfume I once knew, but I can't put a finger on it. I really like this one. I have a hard time describing it perfectly, but I do like it a lot. It's very very floral but not the floral that usually makes me recoil in horror! This is really pretty.

    Geek

    Wow. Not what I expected, yet so perfect! It's cologne and sweat and leather. I love it! I'd probably put a lot of people off, but it is perfect and amazing. It's not something I'm normally attracted to, but Geek is really great. It's strange and dare I say sexy? It must be the leather.

    Kunstkammer

    This reminds me of Fruit Punch. At first it's sweet and citrussy, but when it dries it reminds me a lot of a creamy fruit punch. It's very pink and a lot of fun!

    Shill

    What else can I say? It's pure buttered popcorn. It's exactly buttered popcorn. At first, I thought I would not keep this imp, but now I'm debating. Honestly, I don't think I would wear it very often. It's very interesting and I'm attracted to it because I'm a popcorn junkie. I don't know how she did it but this is another scent that shows just how awesome Beth is.

    Thirteen (13)

    Wow. 13 is really sweet and powdery. For the first bit, it reminds me of powdered coco. It dries down to a really soft, beautiful scent. It's still really sweet and chocolatey but much more beautiful. I think this is a keeper!

    Delphi

    The smoke in the description really scared me away from Delphi. I sniffed this imp certain that I would recoil in disgust, as I usually do with anything that is described as smoky. It's very nice. There is a bit of smoke in it, but it's not overwhelming. Delphi is sort of fruity and juicy as well as dry and smoky. It doesn't smell as nice on my skin, however. It goes more green and dry. Not as juicy and pretty as it was in the bottle. I do like this, but I won't be keeping my imp.

    Gluttony

    In the imp, Gluttony makes my teeth hurt. It is very sweet, heavy and rich. It reminds me a lot of the holiday scents like Sugar Skull and Sugar Cookie. The butter scent calms down a lot on my skin and Gluttony is more soft and sweet. It is far too hot right now to wear Gluttony, but layered with the right oil, I think I could use this!

    Bluebeard

    When I first sniff this, it's a punch in the face. The lavender is super strong and medicinal. It reminds me of Somnus, but more...bitter. Bluebeard is really clean, but very harsh. Definitely not something I could wear.

    Morocco

    This is not what I expected at all! It's so much better than I had thought it would be. I imagined heavy spice, but instead, Morocco is a nice, light vanilla with a hint of musk and spices. It's gorgeous. I think this would be a really lovely fall scent, and it could be layered really well with a lot of vanilla scents like Snake Oil or Antique Lace. I love this and I will be buying a 10ml.

    Dana O'Shee

    Dana O’Shee Sweet almonds and honey. I love this blend, it’s so warm and comforting. It reminds me of a more feminine Dorian.

    Tum

    Tum This is a strong herbal from the vial to dry. Very strong lavender. I think it’s lavender. It reminds me of a natural soap shop in British Columbia (I can’t remember the name) that sells all sorts of crazy remedies for all that ails you. Tum is a very strong, medicinal herb scent that’s really not for me. It is very pretty in a strange way, I must admit, but it’s really not for me.

    Fae

    Fae I had tried this before and was not impressed enough to keep my imp, however this time I am intrigued. It’s light, citrus – very pretty. Another summer blend. The bergamot in this particular batch is really strong. It smells a lot like Lush’s Avobath. Fae would be nice to wear on those particularly evil mornings when it’s a little chilly and I just don’t want to get out of bed. A big bottle of this is on order!

    Bastet

    Bastet Why does almond always smell like anise to me? Anyway…Bastet is a nice light almond, very much reminds me of Dana O’Shee. Dry, it takes on more of a sweet floral. The lotus is really faint, but definitely present. I really like this once the almond is toned down and more floral comes out. Definitely a 5ml purchase.
