On the skin: Wow, this is sweet. Myrrh maybe? A sweet resin with hints of pepper. Huh, after a bit I start to smell some earthiness. It isn't bad. Not something I normally wear, but I actually quite like it!

On the skin: I think I am mostly getting tobacco and the rum with a smooth sweetness that must be the tonka. Wow, this one is strong. Must have put too much on. Huh, it is actually really growing on me. I think I need to try this one again only with more of a dab than slather.

On the skin: Same black musk from Black Temple Burlesque Troupe. This black musk always turns really powdery on me. Sweet powder. I don't think black musk is a note I like.

On the skin: Hello, cinnamon. Wow, this is a peppery cinnamon. Eeep, this one is too much for me.

… Our Grand Guignol perfume is a shot of sweet apricot brandy; just enough to settle your nerves after a ghoulish, gory brush with the macabre. On the skin: Fruity alcohol. Slightly floral. Whoa, after a bit this turns quite floral. An apricot blossom almost? Huh, it's interesting. Not my thing, but interesting.

On the skin: musky grapes? Musky candy grape. Not too bad actually. Not something I would like to smell like though...

On the skin: Strawberry and the scent of (what I believe is) red musk. Pretty much musky strawberries!! After a bit, this scent gets a bit bitter. Must be the grapefruit. This really isn't my thing. The bitterness is starting to give me a headache....

Actually this is a very pleasant cherry booze. Normally cherry turns to icky cough syrup on me, but this is actually quite tasty. Makes me think of redvines. Yum!! After only a short time, the cherry booze fades quite a bit and now I am getting an enormous rush of vanilla. Wow, this is unexpected! I wasn't expecting to like this one, but it is kinda growing on me. Huh, this scent disappeared altogether on my skin really quickly. Ah, well. Not for me then.

Well, I had to try this one even though I am kinda frightened of the cinnamon.... On the skin: Hmmmm, this is quite a tasty cinnamon, but still mostly cinnamon. This one isn't a harsh spice though. Very creamy and pleasant. After a bit, the cinnamon fades and this scent is just generally spicy and pleasant. I don't think this scent is really for me, but it is definitely nice.

On the skin: Huh, definitely metallic. Slightly soapy? Smells like nice hand soap to me. Darn. Not for me.

On the skin: Rose and.... something woody? Eep. The rose is quite strong and does not play friendly like other roses in the past. Not my thing at all.

On the skin: Dusty vanilla and something almost fruity? Something ever so slightly minty? Kinda like minty gum? This reminds me of what I was hoping Tokyo Stomp would smell like. Interesting, but not for me.

On the skin: dirt with a hint of evergreen. Wow, not what I was expecting at all.

On the skin: cedar and the greenness of plants. Not getting any flaming windmill as far as I know. Too green for me.

On the skin: Something herbally that reminds me of bug spray with a hint of orange. I am afraid this doesn't change for me on the dry down. Definitely not for me.

On my skin: The greenness of cucumber with the sweetness of cake. Maybe a hint of tea. After drying a bit, the cucumber has faded a bit and now I can mostly smell cake and breadiness. Even later, I can't smell cucumber, but I am definitely getting more Earl Grey. Hmmmmm, I am afraid that even the hint of cucumber is throwing me off. It just isn't for me....

Ooooh! Dark and incensey! Wow, this is good! No hint of smoke! A sweet incense (from the plum?) yet this doesn't smell fruity. Hmmmm, I think I can slightly smell something a bit soapy (the amber?), but it is still pretty good! I will have to test this one again! -ETA- Slightly soapy smelling incense. Not for me at all.

Hello, oatmeal cookies! Wow, this smells like fresh oatmeal cookies!! I am going to have to get the SO to smell this!! After a bit, it gets a little spicier, but it is still in the realm of baked goods. This is very tasty!

Huh, this is quite faint on me. A hint of green and something almost spicy? It seems so.... blank. Weird.

Hmmmmm, this lily is a green lily. At first. The green fades after a bit, and this is a very pleasant lily. Not soapy on me at all! This is a very good floral, but I am rarely in the mood for florals anymore. Quite nice, but I am definitely more attached to my Phantom Queen!

Hmmm, green wood. Pine or cedar? Slightly sharp. Not for me.

Honey and something else that makes this scent really sweet! Something else flowery as well! Hmmmm, not exactly what I was hoping for...

Smells like an herbal lavender to me. There is something else here that lends to the bitter herbal smell, but I have no idea what it is. I think I am going to keep going to TKO for my bed time needs!

Earthy vetiver. Maybe a slight sweetness, but mostly just earthy vetiver. Not for me.

Bark and fir. Slightly incensey? Not my thing at all.
