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

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

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"

wet forest it is indeed, dark, mossy, wet leaves, possibly a fall night, u know the damp fallen leaves smell u get while hiking out in the woods in teh fall, this is it.

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.

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

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

wet this was just like glitter on me, smelled just like juicy fruit gum.

as it dries it becomes sexier, spicierand deeper, i get cloves, and possibly saffron, amber, absolutely beautiful! i wish i had a big bottle

i was comparing perversion to f54 last night, and i am amazed, perversion is not even lighetr this am, it is just as strong and smells just the same, so i would say perversion is long lasting. the longest lasting to date for me.

other long lasting samhain, tintagel, o, sybaris. all these if i apply them in the evening before bed i can smell faintly when i wake up.

ok i compared perversion to f54 i was praying i would see them the same as f54 is *the* scent as far as i am concerned sure otehrs are great but it is the most incredible thing...anyway i digress, the perversion top note is vanilla to me, the the peppery spicy base, f54 was a fruity, winey topnote, w/ the same spicy background, however the topnote for me is my favorite, yes it would not be the same w/o the back supprot but even tho i like perversion, and it is beautiful, and i actually rated it an 8 on my personal spread sheet (1-10 scale 10 being best) it for me is not a substitute for f54.

Hmmm...I *love* Samhain, and although I'm not in imminant danger of running out, I'd love to know of any similar scents that I can try.  Jack sounds like it would be good for a Samhain fan, though I've never tried it...

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

i agree, i like both but they are not alike.

wet grapes and lotus

as it dries it goes thru a quick flash of something gone rancid but after a couple second it is back to a nice grapy, herbal, lotus scent, very nice

BEAUTIFUL!

dried grasses, musk, and amber, this reminds me a bit of lion but a less tame, mor rangly scent, definitely need a big bottle it is mostly amber and dried grass w/ a hint of musk, but it is so well blended just perfect

wet: musk

drydown:musk, w/ and amber kick, and she is wearing a violet between her teeth....this is gorgeus! i adore all three of those notes, and they did not disappoint me

trying this again 8/7/06

i recently was looking to try this again, i was not disappointed. it goes on slightly sharp in the beginning. sharp violet. it mellows and becomes a great sexy musky resinous blend after drydown. just what i was craving.

well hellllo hubba bubba, original hubba bubba, the kind that if ya put 2 peices in ur mouth it is hard to chew., as it dries it becomes cinnomy hubba bubba, w/ a hint of carnation i think surprisingly i liked about all the stages here, at first i thoght i would have to give it to my dd's but it grew on me

wow wet this is like single note almond.

dry it becomes quite a bit more herbal, and yes there is rose here. very nice...i'll post how it "works"

complex, very

this is smokey, a tad fruity, a touch of greenery possibly pine and pretty floral., yet it is dark and yes somewhat like samhain. this is so complex and well blended it leaves me in awe.

this is intresting to say the least again i bought it for its "properties" but am trying it as a perfume for reviews

wet it was sweet cherry almonds.

as it dries it is velvety, vanilla, and honey, w/ a drab of tobacco, and a drizzle of spice

this is dynamic and fun two thumbs up

wet it smelled like pure sweet pea

as it dries the tonka and wee bit of sage appear however sweet pea is the spotlight of this blend

ADDED April 18:

wow in the vial i smell literine *gasp*

on my skin wet it is a sweet floral i am presuming is sweetpea

as it dries is becomes a tonka blend, smells just like my tonka beans as i crush them for incense. there is something else, something green that i can't place lurking behind the tonka, butthe flowery sweetpea has run away

this is sharp, and definitely is pain, but not a horrid pain, it is a good pain, very minty (pennyroyal i presume) w/ a ever so light hint of lavander

i love this one, it is true vial, wet, and dry, it is a very well balanced blend between violet, vanilla, and gardenia...simply gorgeous, somewhat cold hearted, but i can live w/ that

hmm wet it was all citrus and neroli

as it dries it is like "o" w/ cloves and a very light brush of citrus

i like it

wet:creamy, orange lovely!

dry: it gets very smoky, but still retains the vanilla, w/ a hint of orange.

this is intresting
