    Black Ice

    My initial thought was "Oh god, it's dove soap!" but it seems to release with the warmth of the skin. What a strange scent! While I don't "love" cold scents, I'm fascinated with this one. It's so strange. It's chilly, it feels exactly like the description. The asphalt, the snow, the wind. It's vaguly minty too, which is where the chill comes from I think. Really interesting, but just not something I'd wear

    Rangoon Riptide

    Ugh. This doesn't work. At all. Cloying, gross, a mess. Not good on me at all. I think it's the passion fruit. Must remove! ok, I gave this a bit more time and it's a bit better. Kind of like...candy. Still not for me though

    The Buggre Alle This Bible

    Initially, leather, some paper and tabacco. AMAZING. Later, it dries to be more incense and cologne/soap than anything else. This one breaks my heart, because I think it's just that much too masculine for me. I had high hopes *tear*

    Cobra Lily

    Definitely heady! It feels like walking into a green house full of warm lush blossoms. It's a sexy and dangerous scent. A little bit of sharpness, a glimmer even. The heaviness of the scent makes it overwhelming and hard to ignore. Clouds the senses.

    Dragon Moon 2008

    In the Bottle: Bergamot, lavender and dragon's blood. Love this! On Me: Very faint, after only a hour or so. I think I'll need to put more on to really judge. It's clean and warm, and really pretty, from what I can smell. Need more! Second Time: My skin just eats this up! It's a neat floral. I definitely get the tingle of the peppermint, mixed with the lavender, cedar and blue sage. I wish I had more of the sweetgrass and frankincense to warm this up and give it some spice. It's a great blend, but not for me

    Chrysanthemum Moon

    Mmmm, this is lovely! Not quite as musky or spicey as I was anticipating, but still really pretty. Unfortunately, it doesn't last long on me. I get incense, the mums and the musk. I wish my skin amped the ginger some more. Lovely

    White Moon

    This one is so right on. It smells like night time in november. It's calm, comforting and beautiful. I smell candles burning. The sandalwood must be blending perfectly with the florals to create this lovely scent. I honestly can't pick anything out. Maybe just the moonflower. It's gorgeous.

    Archangel Winter

    On Me: This smells extremely familiar to me, but I can't seem to place it. Definitely strong in ozone. Cold. Airy. Not for me

    November

    This one is heart breaking. It is completely soapy and cologne like on me.

    Wolf Moon 2004

    This is not at all what I was expecting. I think I figured it would be way muskier, perhaps more like coyote, but colder and with pine or fir. Instead, it's quite pretty. Still cold, but with a tingle of sweetness. Maybe even a little floral

    Strangler Fig

    Well, I wasn't sure about this one. It seemed very deep and earthy in the bottle, which kind of made me nervous. It's actually much nicer than I anticipated. It is very deep and rooty to be sure, but there is a sweetness I didn't expect and the green tones keep it from being too cloying.

    The Ghastly Garden

    You know, I didn't even really feel the need to try this one. Generally, I'm not a huge fan of florals, so I just didn't see this one working. Some how, the nectar, wetness and sap seem to have darkened these florals and weighed them down with some dampness. I really actually enjoy it. It reminds me of a perfume a loved one used to wear, so it's slightly melancholic. A lovely nighttime scent. Definitely a surprise for me.

    Oborot

    I can definitely smell the sap and pine in this. It's dark and strange feeling...like, being in the shelter of earth and tree with the cold outside. It's beautiful and dark and magical. Perhaps good for a rit, but not something I would wear otherwise.

    Upa Upa

    Love this just as much as I thought I would. I just want to drink it! The rum isn't as boozy as I thought it would be, which makes this more wearable. Everything blends really well. The pineapple smells juicy, the coconut, vanilla and spices just make this gorgeous and yummy. I think it must be the vanilla and coconut, but there is a creamy warmth to this that reminds me of butterscotch or caramel. YUM

    Tiki Queen

    Oooh, very pretty. This blend is exactly what I expected from alot of the other caribbean blends. It's floral, without being too much, and it's sweet without being cloying or too heavy on the rum. Really pretty

    Titania

    This is really pretty. Of all the fruit blends, I think this may be a favourite of mine. The white grape and white peach are very light, sweet and pretty. The sweet pea (a favourite of mine), moonflower and snapdragon add some depth to the scent and mellow out the fruits. It becomes soft and feels like that moment after the sun goes down: soft, lovely and magical. Love

    Anne Bonny

    This is so beautifully incensey. Loooove it. It's smokey, dark, sexy and earthy. Not necessarily what I would associate with a pirate, but definitely a great blend. It definitely picks up some spice as it sits on the skin, which makes it even more beautiful.

    The East

    This is really quite nice. I immediately smell the red currant and freesia. It's sort of a juicey warm tea scent. It really compliments the body's warmth.

    Plunder

    In the bottle: Pirate. Pure pirate. On Me: Can I just say that I love this scent? It's spicey, it's warm and it's got lots of attitude. Immediately, I get the cinnamon bark, clove, all spice, peppercorn and nutmeg. It's beautiful and entirely different to previous spicey blends I've tried (like three witches). I think it's the sandalwood (which is quickly becoming a new favourite note of mine) and tabacco that mellows the spice and makes this a more well-rounded blend with depth. Gorgeous

    Tiki King

    In the Bottle: Coconut, musk. On me: Mmm, this is so nice! It's definitely a darker coconut blend. the musk and lemon blossom really bring some life to this. Love!

    The Ifrit

    This is absolutely gorgeous. I'm definitely going to need a bottle of this. The red musk is the predominant scent in this one for me, though it's really hard to pick out the individual notes. I can definitely smell the tobacco here and I just love it. What a perfectly red blend. I think it's the ginger and dragon's blood that are brining the sweetness and almost juicey feel to this scent. So well done. I will note that it did burn a bit when I put it on, due to the cinnamon.

    Nanny Ashtoreth

    A fan of leather, amber, woods, honey and spices, I was really looking forward to this one. Nanny does not disappoint! It's a beautiful blend. Warm, spiced and just a tiny bit sweet. I could wear this all the time, especially as a sweeter alternative to Loviatar. Definitely getting a bottle of this. <3 Initially, it almost smells cologny, very similar to something my Dad used to wear. On me, however, it is completely feminine. Smokey leather, sweet, with a lovely warm wood and amber. I just love this

    Enraged Groundhog Musk

    In the bottle: Cocoa, cherries and something else...maybe the caramel? On me: Mmmmmm, chocolately goodness. It's cocoa, spices (cardamom I guess), and a faint musk. I really like this. It's playful and sweet without being cloying.

    Bilquis

    In the bottle: Lily of the valley (YAY!), apple, musk and honey On Me: Apple, Myrrh, Rose Otto and musk. I'm sad that the Lily of the Valley has faded a bit, but I'm not surprised. I have yet to find a good LotV scent that matches the lovely petal soft scent from the actual plant. This is really feminine and soft. Pretty. It's floral and just incensey enough that it balances really well and softly. I really like it.

    Leo 2007

    In the bottle: Amber, chamomile and frankincense. Mmmm, I'm going to like this. On me: Amber, sweetened by the chamomile and saffron, but made deeper and earth by the bark and frankincense. I LOVE this. It's a confident warm blend that reminds me of a lion's mane. An instant favourite. Reminds me of my sister <3
