    Chaos Theory IV: Edge of Chaos

    This is my first review ever, so please bear with me. MCLXXXVIII (1,188) EDITED - My sister and I worked on this and she helped me pin down some things that I couldn't place before. In the bottle: Faint chocolate smell, with something lighter in the background. Wet on skin: The chocolate evaporates (yay!) and turns into musk. Sweetness fades also, but is still there. Drydown: ... this is gonna sound weird, but it really does smell like walnuts. My skin smells like I've been rolling around in walnuts. This is very autumn, VERY pretty despite the strangeness, and totally unlike any other blend I've tried. I'm so glad I have something that says autumn to me without also saying potpourri.

    I got this blend from a decant circle. As soon as I opened the bottle, it was All Play-doh, All The Time, and it stayed that way when I tried some on. It didn't stay on me long enough for me to determine its efficacy.

    The Old Lady Scents

    This may sound weird, but I think the most "old lady"-smelling thing I've had was a bottle of Follow Me Boy. I bought it from someone else who'd had it a while (don't know how long), but when I tried it on my skin, all I could picture was a nursing home. Not really the kind of thing to make me feel sexy, so I stopped wearing it. It's literally collecting dust on a shelf now.
  4. Absolutely! Suggest away. Seems a lot of people are suggesting Mag Mell. Though the description makes me think more of springtime than sunlight and heat itself, I think I may give it a shot anyways. Northatlantic had it perfectly when they said "spicy desert gold". That's exactly what I'm looking for right now, but I'm open to other takes on the solar theme also.
  5. Ah, found a lot of good suggestions in that thread. Thanks so much!
  6. I'm looking for a solar scent. Something like sunlight and gold. I love Ahathoor and that suited my tastes very well, but now that that's discontinued, and I know my one 5 ml. bottle ain't gonna last forever, I'm looking for something else to eventually replace it. I don't want anything earthy, but I'd be ok with some light florals if it wasn't too overpowering. I know that TAL has something that sounded close (Radiance of Ra) but I'm not looking for a strict ritual oil. So, any suggestions?
