A big BIG thank you to allidavie for giving me the opportunity to test this!
Wet: Spicy caramelized vanilla and... a hint of woods? This is good. This is really, really good. CRAP.
Dry: This is gorgeous. I can see why it's so popular! The drydown stays almost exactly the same as the wet stage. This is so, so good.
5/5

Wet: Crisp and clean, with a metallic tinge. I dig it!
Dry: Citrus and metal. This is YUM on me! A bright, fun scent. I'm super glad I have my imp!

Wet: Sweet and spicy! Almost soapy. Not at all what I was thinking!
Dry: Ehhh... this is pretty bland on me. Sweet and milky. It's not a bad scent, it's just not for me.

Highly recommend Clio, if you can find any: "Her scent is the warm, dry parchment of scrolls, lavender for critical thought and analysis, the solidity of heavy woods, ornery patchouli and glib benzoin, and superstar-splashed orange and amber."

The perfume of a hellbound soul, gleefully lost to iniquity: blood musk, golden honey, thick black wine, champagne grapes, tobacco flower, plum blossom, tonka bean, oakmoss, carnation, benzoin, opoponax, and sugar cane.
Wet: Wine! And something slightly floral in the background. Sweet, and lovely.
Dry: A faint wine scent. Fruity and yummy, but not unique enough for me to need a bottle.

Wet: Clean, fresh patchouli. I have no idea how that makes sense, but it does. I like it.
Dry: Sweet florals, with a hint of patchouli in the background. The best word I have to describe this blend is "haunting". I really enjoy it.

Wet: I have to agree with the above reviewer; "dark pink chocolate" is a PERFECT description for this. Chocolate and dragon's blood smells awesome together, apparently! There's something a tad bit resinous underneath it, that keeps this blend from going too sweet.
Dry: The chocolate and dragon's blood are still playing nice. This is definitely DARK chocolate with a splash of dragon's blood. The wet and dry stages are both very similar on me, but the dry stage smells less 'juicy', if that makes sense. Very happy I pulled the trigger on this!

Wet: Citrus, clean, and floral. Green. Loving it.
Dry: This is a bit softer now, but it's lovely. This is a perfect scent for spring.

Wet: Omfg. This is DELICIOUS. Nutty, warm, and delicious. This reminds me of baked goods during Christmas.
Dry: Brb, eating my arm off. But really, this is delicious, and a MUST TRY for foody lovers.

Wet: Woods. In a good way. A tiny bit of amber, maybe? Some sandalwood? I DON'T KNOW!
Dry: Dang. Morphed into a bad woods scent. Cedar, is that you? Dangit.

Wet: SHARP cologne! And a woodsy background.
Dry: Alright, the cologne scent is burned off. This scent is woods, to the max. Pretty sure I can detect some cedar in this. Fairly masculine.
Not really a "me" scent.

Wet: Peony! Bright, and fresh. Non-soapy. Gorgeous.
Dry: My skin has mostly eaten this. Siiiiigh. I wish it would stay in the wet stage forever. If I keep this, I'll need to use it in a scent locket.

Wet: White chocolate... and flowers! They compliment each other beautifully. I'm loving this, and I'm not a big fan of florals. I detect a bit of honey, too.
Dry: Creamy florals, with just a hint of white chocolate. This is lovely. I think the white chocolate and honey are keeping the florals from going soapy on my skin.

Wet: Tobacco flower and linen! This has fresh, clean feeling to it. I dig it.
Dry: This faded fast on me. It's now a very, very light tobacco scent, with linen being dominant. It's very nice, but not for me.

The first scent to pop into my head; Clio! If you can get ahold of any, that is.
I cherish my one imp I have. Her scent is the warm, dry parchment of scrolls, lavender for critical thought and analysis, the solidity of heavy woods, ornery patchouli and glib benzoin, and superstar-splashed orange and amber.
-
Wet: Very light, candied fruits... with something a bit powdery. I wish this was stronger so I could smell it better!
Dry: Unfortunately, my skin ate this. A bit disappointing... based on the description, this had potential!

Wet: GAH. In-your-face-rose with chamomile.
Dry: Yep. What 90% of the blends I've tried with rose in it do... mega powdery, with a soapy background.
1/5
If rose works well on your skin, I'd give this a try. Rose just happens to be one of my notes of death.

Wet: An old woman stomping around in her garden. What is that? Jasmine? Gardenia? As well as something strongly herbal...
Dry: Yep. An old woman who rolled around in her flowers. The herbal scent is gone, but this is still.. well... no me gusta. I wouldn't try this unless strong florals work well on your skin.

Wet: Mmmmm. Sweet almond. This reminds me a bit of Lush's Snowcake, which is one of my favorite Lush scents!
Dry: Snowcake. The almond has calmed down and the scent is fairly lighter now, but this is total Snowcake deliciousness on my skin.
Creamy and wonderful. If you're into milk and honey scents, you should definitely give this a shot.5/5

Wet: I definitely smell something "golden". There's something lurking in the background that smells like cedar, though, which I'm not a big fan of...
Dry: A very, very faint woodsy scent... with a tiny bit of amber? This basically disappeared on my skin.

Wet: Sickly sweet pink bubblegum!
Dry: This is amazing! I can smell that white powder that's on those big pieces of pink gum. The scent has definitely mellowed down a bit, in a good way. I can't see myself wearing this really, but I think I'll keep it around.

Wet: Orange and neroli.
Dry: Almost non-existant on my skin. I was really hoping to be able to smell an orangey-raspberry tango, but all I can detect now is a hint of neroli.
