  1. 2006 version

    Bottle: Grape

     

    Wet: Bubblegum grape and incense.

     

    Drydown: Gets very sweet on me. The incense nearly disappears. I like this scent, but wish the incense would stick around.

    3.5 outta 5


  2. Bottle: Earthy

     

    Wet: Dirt and possibly amber? Dirt does not work on me, it makes me slightly nauseous so I hope it changes.

     

    Drydown: Well, it's still very dirty. There is something warm there, that tones the dirt down, but to my stomach, this is just unwearable!

    2.0 outta 5


  3. Bottle: Rose

     

    Wet: Rose and amber. I'm not fond of rose at all, but I make a point to try everything. There's the musk, it's overwhelming the rose at this point.

     

    Drydown: Ah, now the rose is back. It just amps on me something awful! I can smell the amber, but it's very faint. I'm afraid this just doesn't work on me!

    2.5 outta 5


  4. Bottle: Rum and perfume

     

    Wet: Rum, tabacco and chardonnay. I'm impressed, this is lighter than I thought it would be! It's very sweet and not smoky like I thought it would be!

     

    Drydown: This is very fresh and light. I'd say it's a good daytime into night time fragrance.

    3.5 outta 5


  5. Bottle: Whoa!Cassia!

     

    Wet: Mmm, snake oil and cinnamon! The cassia has settled down and become more approachable, which makes me happy, cause I was scared. It's very sexy and middle-eastern!

     

    Drydown: The cassia is still strong, but not overwhelming! I might pair this up with another dot of Snake Oil if I wanted the cassia pared down.

    3.5 outta 5, this will eventually be a big bottle purchase!


  6. Bottle: Citrus and herbs

     

    Wet: Citrus and herbs, it's very bright and vivacious!

     

    Drydown: The citrus settles down a bit, which is disappointing, but it remains very bright. It makes me feel slightly energetic like moxie does.

    3.5 outta 5


  7. Bottle: Perfumey

     

    Wet: Jasmine? Which hates me? :P I think it is jasmine, it's very floral and strong.

     

    Drydown: Jasmine just amps and amps and amps on me until I'm nauseated! Of course, my husband loves it on me! :D

    3.0 outta 5, because although it's an evil jasmine, it's still the best smelling jasmine I've ever smelled!


  8. Bottle: Lavender

     

    Wet: Very herbally lavender, almost overwhelmingly so.

     

    Drydown: It's still very herbally but it's a bit softer. I tested this twice, on the first night I slept like a baby and on the second night I didn't sleep at all! I'm so obstinate! :P

    It did help me be relaxed even when I couldn't fall asleep so I wholeheartedly recommend this blend!

    3.5 outta 5


  9. Bottle: Amber

     

    Wet: Amber and peach? Some sandalwood and vanilla, my nose isn't working too well apparently!

     

    Drydown: This is very muted on me, but it's a nice daytime fragrance.

    3.0 outta 5


  10. Bottle: lavender

     

    Wet: herbally lavender with maybe citrus?

     

    Drydown: It's sweeter than herbally now. I think I like it but I'm not sure. I'm feeling pretty calm and quiet right now so I think it's working.

    3.5 outta 5


  11. Bottle: Pineapple and turkey

     

    Wet: Pineapple, vanilla and turkey with some sweetness. It's kind of wrong. And right. Like opposite of what you think you want. Pineapple and turkey go great with eachother, who knew?

     

    Drydown: Still a lot of pineapple and a little bit of turkey with a tiny hint of vanilla.

    3.5 outta 5


  12. Bottle: Strawberry

     

    Wet: Flowers and strawberry, it's good but unusual. It's very sweet which I love!

     

    Drydown: This is great. I don't usually find florals I like as much as this.

    3.5 outta 5


  13. Bottle: Juniper and sandalwood

     

    Wet: This is different for me, but I really like it. Juniper and sandalwood with musk and florals makes it really interesting. It's just a tiny bit strong for me though and I only put on a tiny amount.

     

    Drydown: Okay the extreme level of strongness has worn away. The yumminess of the scent has not. This will eventually be on my big bottle list.

    3.5 outta 5


  14. Bottle: Spiciness

     

    Wet: Frankincense and spicy almond. Unfortunately my husband hated this. He said it smelled like pot which he hates. It did not burn him up, it quashed his fire. :P

     

    Drydown: The spiciness faded after a while, but to my husband it was still all pot. To me it was almond and frankincense still.

  15. I almost forgot to do this review, I tried it last night.

     

    Bottle: Sharp lavender

     

    Wet: Sharp lavender with a touch of lemon or citrus.

     

    Drydown: This one didn't last very long on me at all, it seemed to disapper very quickly. But, I did have a lot of lucid dreams, so it seems to have worked despite the disappearance.

  16. Urd


    Bottle: patchouli abounds!

     

    Wet: I got this as a frimp and I'm taking a chance by trying it because patchouli is a no-no for me. Patchouli and nagchampa are just so strong! I'm glad I tried this, but it's just not for me!

     

    Drydown: If you like patchouli you'll love this, no doubt about it!

    3.0 outta 5 because despite not liking patchouli, Beth blends them so well that it makes me want to like it!


  17. Bottle: Buttercream and rum

     

    Wet: Mmm, this is yummy! Buttercream and hazelnut along with a creamy rum. I've never tried Storyville but this is close to what I imagine it would be like.

     

    Drydown: This is creamy and sweet with a hint of booze that makes it more grown up than the usual sweet scents. I love this!

    4.0 outta 5


  18. Bottle: Sweet butter

     

    Wet: Mmm, this is good! There's butter and sugar and something sweet and fruity. Some smokiness too.

     

    Drydown: This is very sweet to me. There's a chemical note that's emerged, but that's good as this is 2 years old and it makes me not want a bottle as badly. But still, it's good. Sweet and buttery and smoky.
