    Sea of Glass

    crisp ozone, and aquatics, w/ a light breeze of white flowers and a tad of citrus, makes for one clean smelling scent. it isn't me but it is beautiful

    Juke Joint

    mint julip it is. i actually was a bit teripditious to try this as i didn't like roadhose, and i was a bit afraid it would be similar altho i do not know why, but it is nothing like roadhouse, it is pure mint julip...nice

    Scherezade

    ggaaaaahhhh no more, i must not try another imp, my big bottle list is beginning to look like a catalog in itself i adore this one, i agree it is a spicy snake oil, but it is more then taht too, the saffron note i am adoring, but that doesn't surprise me i have detected it in many of my favorites it also seems to have a hint of fruit of some sort, but i can't put my finger on which. this is a sweet, yet deep scent, i adore it and yes will order a big bottle

    Lorelei

    wet all i get is sandalwood as it dries it becomes a blend of all the notes sandalwood being most prominent and supported by neroli and yalng yalng. this is a light etheral scent, extremely light, like a breeze.

    The Lady of Shalott

    bold gardenia, crystalline musk, muguet, water blossoms, clear, slightly tart aquatic notes and a crush of white ginger. hmmm in the vial: melon?? wet gardenia and water melon as it dries this is a light watery gardenia and melon type scent, i must say i usually dislike aquatic notes on me, they get sharp and bite my nose, this however is soft, sweet, and gorgeous, and i need a big bottle

    Yerevan

    *contented sigh* this is gorgeous wet it is strongly plum as it dries it becomes a droolingly gorgeous rose, musk, and plum blend. it is perfectly balanced between the notes and is making me swoon

    Obeah

    Lear

    beautiful cedar, altho not cedar shavings in the least, lear is an antique cedar box, that at one time held sage, i am not detecting bay leaf but it could just be hiding in the box, under the sage. this is a deep resinous scent that definitely yells LEAR in my ear

    Black Lotus

    maple syrup???? i was expecting abit more floral as it dries it becomes maple syrup and sandalwood which is intresting enough but i was expecting a bit of lotus huh. actually i am quite fond of sweety, maple syrup type scents, and this would be imho an alternative to sugar skull altho not as complex as sugar skull, i keep sniffing thinking i would get a hint of lotus, but nada

    Oberon

    interesting, i find this pretty femenine,orchid, bergamont, and musk, w/ something spicy, it is sweet and soft, simple and beautiful i don't really get the patchouli or juniper which is a shame i love them both, and w/ them i imagine it would be a bit more masculine, but on me it is a sweet soft innocent smelling floral

    Baku

    eucalyptus, anise, and lavander are the main notes i get. but i also get something peppery, and herbally besides the obvious notes, this is very fresh and clean smelling i was intrested in trying this because i have post traumatic stress disorder and the sleeping pill prescribed for me have not been my thing because i can't wake up the next day i am excited to try this one for it's real "purpose"

    Akuma

    in the vial i smelled resins...which i wasn't expecting at all wet: ahhh ok there is the fruitiness it is almsot all sweet raspberry w, a hint of blood orange as it dries the neroli, orange and raspberry meld into a fruity montage. it is sweet and summery innocent smelling, i actually think my middle dd w/ adore this one.

    Aureus

    True, perfect golden light, refined into an incomparably glorious scent. ahhh i love me some resins. this is definitely a woody incense smell, it is just like sitting in a warm empty church, watching the dust motes drift thru the sunbeams

    Hymn

    hmm this is very floral, the rose is not as strong as i had hoped, the lily (unfortunate for me) is the top note, i also smell labdanum, and myrrh. as it dries the myrrh becomes more prominent and teh lily is tamed a bit thank goodness all in all a pretty floral scent very light and summery

    The Hesperides

    wet a buttery caramel apple, still warm from being dipped as it dries it loses the buttery caramel scent and becomes fresh sweet apples, they smell just picked, sweet and warm, then it slowly gets a bit spicy i am thinking candy apple, this is a great apple harvest scent. i like

    Nanshe

    The Babylonian Goddess of Dreams, who bestows the power of Oneiromancy onto her priests. This blend opens up psychic sensitivity during sleep and aids in the understanding and correct interpretation of portents and symbols. this is almost a singlenote lemon peel on me, no herbs, no lavender, just lemon.
