w/ my obsession for things of camelot, i had had to have this one, and then my obsession w/ violets booted it. this is deep incensy, violet and a hint of wine perchance? deep, dark, tintagel's evil sister. lovin it!
-
ummm well this went horribly wrong on me...and horribly would be an understatement, at first it smelled of dirt, which was ok enough, but then it smelled of dirty dirt, not good, not good at all....swaps
-
Strong black tea and milk with white pepper, ginger, honey and vanilla, spilled over the crisp scent of clean linen. wet the linen scared me, i don't like smelling clean as it dried teh linen takes a break and it is honeyed, creamy teaw/ just a hint of pepper. nice...i may end up getting all the mad tea party blends.
-
oh no oh no, another big bottle this is feral regal gorgeous, dry grassy, hint of cinnamon, heavy on the amber omgwtbbq could go in top 5 scent

living in Hershey (chocolate town usa) i have smelled chocolate from morning til night all summer long....i know chocolate and u sir are chocolate...but somewhere deep deep down in this cocoa haze is a hint of caramelly yumminess, chocolate gluttony i have "plans" for this one
-
ahhh yes this one is a big bottle, on me it is vetiver chockin the smoke out of a carnation....a bit morbid but man is it nice
-
pinapple and a white floral, i am also getting a faint evergreenish resin? and a tad of honey
-
juicy, sweet, ubersweet figs...i like
-
WOW *wakes up from swoon* this is the main component in "o" i def can pick it out , now having the single note, this is thick, sweet, sexual, this actually smells "sticky" if that is possible.
-
i have LxxI it is very sugary swwet lime, like a lime dumdum almost smells edible Previously reviewed by darkling.
-
wow wet was grapefruit and at first i thought pepper...it made my nose twitch like bewitched....but no it isn't pepper it is ginegr i believe and a white floral, but very light playing peekaboo...this one is so different then i expected.
-
sparkly yes sparkly it is floral? is that linden blossoms? if so yummy! but there is citrus...grapefruit? i think it is grapefruit and the linden man this is nice! light summery running thru a feild of wildflowers.
-
ahh there is wintergreen of some sort, possibly birch? and some kind of citrus but the wintergreen smell is the fremost note for me, this si crisp, clean, beautiful, i don't know if i could wear it daily but it is nice
-
wow this one runs from me like trying to hold on to water wet it was all almond, and i mean all as it dried it went almost pure lime, i at first thought lemon but no it is lime, there is an undercurrent of coconut, and a hint of something possibly chocolate, and mint just around the edges, and only occassionally, man this one is tricky...and i possibly could have spooky on the brain but it is slighly spookyesque...but i like this better then spoooky
-
in the bottle the mint steps out smacks me in the face and wants to make me her bitch on my skin the mint wanders off (thankgoodness) and a weird plastic smell inhabits the coconutty, chocolate as it dries tha plastic drifts off a bit but still lingers slightly, and the prominent sniff is mostly reminecent of snow white. it is light summery and very fresh smelling.
-
wow this is heavy on the civet, there is a spicy undercurrent, i want to say a tad of cinnamon, but i am not positive cinnamon is it, and could there be possibly amber? there is something warm lurking something amber like, and cinnamon, but i only smell it in the waft, up against my arm is all civet. like my civet single note....this one is certainly devilish

i was going to recommend ddlm also she is gorgeous! centzon totochtin ouija grandmother of ghosts titagel is extremely complex and imho a one of a kind but man is it complex and morphing tarot": strength is complex and dracul heck i could go on and on, i love so very many -
wow wet this is dandelion, and somewhat soapy which is not surprising cause dandelions have a soapiness to me this has a very beer scent as it dries, w/ a touch of dandelion and soap not sure if this is a keep or not, it kinda makes me queasy, but i try not to judge on first try as many have grown on me
-
this on me is almost all green tea, a hint of lilac, and something nutty smelling, actually the nutty type smell is battling for top note w/ the tea, very intresting and compelling, i def will use the imp
-
this is almost too well blended to decipher, i am not getting any lily at all thank goodness since they go weirdly wonky one me. the pepper is very obvious, and the laurel, peony is very very faintly detectable, this is really not a florally blend on me it is woodsy, deep, spicey gorgeousness very very nice and a definite 5 ml order
-
well since i have learned beths roses are so beautiful i searched this one out on swaps wet it was rubbery smelling, very weird as it dried it became more moonflower then rose, this is a very very delicate, light fragrance, the rose is very very faint, i like my stronger rose blends but this may be a summer beach trip perfume.
-
ahhhhh the amber, and spices perfectly balance the iris and keep it from being an overly floral perfume, this one is very complex and blened gorgeously the berries sweeten up the background just a touch and perfectly complete this one! going on 5ml list
-
i went looking for violets and this one popped up and man am i not disappointed, altho the most noticeable note to me is a musk, followed by the rosewood, then the violet softens it all making it a beautiful blend, i am in adoration
-
Fabulous! gorgeous, fresh sweet carnations, i love it! (carnations are my fav flower) this captures fresh carnations perfectly!
-
wow my review certainly is not what others have foun in this oil. i will try to be gentle but this is one of the very few i absolutely can not stand, i could cry too, cause violets are my love, but this oddly smelled like fish oil, strong overpowering codliveroil w/ a hint of pinesol in the background, i got zero violets. it made me nauseous and i wanted to scrub my arm w/ a brillo pad to get it off. where oh where are the lovely violets?
