  1. since 3 witches was dc'd i have been hording it like some crazy cinnamon lunatic, today i find hamadryad its very very similar in feel (which i wasn't expecting the site description made me think floral, not spice,) and while i detect a hint of floral that was not in 3 witches, the cinnamon, and clove are so gorgeous, it will be a great sub for my witches.


  2. holy apricots batman!

     

    the apricots and musk blend so gorgeously i want to lick my own arm this one is having a very strong affect on me, it is simply gorgeous! beautiful, lovely *faints in pleasure*


  3. this one cornfused me a bit when i first smelled it. i detected the fruity but couldn't for the life of me place the fruit

     

    ahh yes apricots wet this is very very fruity apriocots w/ a touch of clove

     

    as it dries it becomes cloves w/ a touch of apricot sweet and spicy, twisted is right all in all this could make the top 10 list


  4. I too wish this was available

     

    it is clean, but a warm clean,

     

    soft, sweet, honey and tea yumminess, there is a very faint touch of breath that is floral and all this lays in a soft, lush bed of dry herbs, but that is so fleeting i almost could miss it, all in all just a gorgeous blend. i want more *pouts*


  5. hmmm floral? i didn't get floral at all

     

    in the vial i couldn't detect any smell at all

     

    wet it is still very very faint but i get a small whiff of vanilla maybe? a hnt of copal (white copal i believe)

     

    as it dries it becomes very incense, almost smells like burning leaves or pot but w/ a hint of creamy vanilla type something that softens it a tad, this is so ultra light and very beautiful it maybe a good bedtime scent for me


  6. yup yup dragons blood, and apparently my skin loves dragon's blood cause it amps it up in every blend containing it, i think i detect carnation? possibly ? and something a bit spicy but i am not sure it is cloves....all in all nice.


  7. in the vial rosewood???

     

    wet: i still smell rosewood most, infact it reminds me of intrigue, and a bit of ouija, although it may not be because of the scent possibly a bit of the feel of it? if that makes sense.

     

    as it dries i can detect a bit of teh carnation and neroli notes but it still seems mostly a resin scent (and i strongly think rosewood if u didn't get taht yet :P )


  8. this one is herbal, a bit woodsy, and a lot of licorice

     

     

    i love black licorice the woodsy base keeps it from being too one demsional, i do not get teh lemon and mint (thank goodness) all in all very likeable and imho great fro warmer weather


  9. Notorious for its properties for protection against werewolves and curing lycanthropy, this nefarious plant also has a fine history of use as a virulent poison. Clasically, Medea employed it in her many works of vengeance. This concoction of ours has none of the lethal qualities, but still personifies all of the herb's dark history beautifully.


    wet was all pine needles

    dry the pine stayed very strong, and i almost was gonna post it was like a pine single note when suddenly from out of nowhere it went rose. definitely not red rose, i am thinking white rose, and some green pines. nice i am not sure if i will want a big bottle but i will use the imp

  10. i so wanted to try this i love rose and myrhh so had high hopes

     

    wet : sharp biting jasmine, ugh why did i not notice the jasmine note in the description

     

     

    dry: jasmine ugh ugh where is the rose??? all is get is jasmine and myrhh


  11. in the vial: i double check the tag....no it is indeed not glitter, but it has the same juicy fruit smell glitter has, which is good i like glitter ok

     

    wet: glitter w/ a touch of musk and honey which deepens her a bit, makes it more grownup

     

     

    dry: wow almost all honey, there is a very very faint hint of something fruity lurking deep in the recesses but mostly it is honey...what a strange morph but all in all it is lovely


  12. in the vial it is very sweet fruity...i second guess wearing it

     

    when it hits my skin it is a blast of cinnamon sweetness.

     

    as it dries it does indeed become herbal...i think maybe sweetgrass? i get a hint of amber and of course the yummy cinnamon.

    eta the longer i wear this the more it smells like young lovers warming themselves in the sun in a field of tall sweet grasses.

    the lovers is one i could truely love!


  13. Dominant, passionate, devastating. Dragon’s blood and five deep musks.


    i love love this one!

    wet it was all dragon's blood, as it dried the musks blend beautifully w/ the blood, and it becomes a deep, sexy, dance between the notes, it is very heady and makes me feel a bit intoxicated w/ the sexiness of it.

  14. Flame-kissed, warm, smooth, and highly protective. Dragon’s blood, leather and a hint of smoke.


    this was almost all dragon's blood on me, w/ the slightest hint of smoke. it didn't change or morph while drying. if you are a dragon's blood lover this one is for you.

  15. To celebrate the opening of the Black Phoenix Trading Post, we are offering this rugged, visceral dark cowboy scent. Now widely considered a portent of doom, the Dead Man's Hand is a term used in five-card poker when you have “aces over eights” or “aces backed with eights” -- the hand allegedly held by Wild Bill Hickock when he was gunned down from behind by Jack McCall in Saloon No. 10, Deadwood. According to the saloon's proprietor, Hickock was holding all black cards, aces and eights, and it is believed that he was about to draw at the time of his murder. Our Dead Man's Hand is the quintessential western scent: dusty rawhide and oiled leather.


    this one stayed true from the vial, wet, and dry. it is indeed leather, pure leather on me it smelled just like a wilson's leather store.

  16. in the bottle it was very sharp floral, kinda stung my nose.

     

    wet it was a warm spicey floral, altho i am not sure which spice, it kinda of reminded me of DDLM but the florals are different. i think there maybe a saffron note? i am not sure but i get a slight saffron whiff occassionally.

     

    dry it is glorious, there is a vanilla touch, maybe even honey? and the spice and i still say saffron, the floral has completely faded (yay) it is a geniously blended gorgeous scent i adore it


  17. ok i got mine in a swap, it is very pine (juniper maybe) in the imp and wet but as it dries lo and behold it becomes snake oil w/ just a very very light touch of evergreen lingering way in the background, hmmm i actually think i may like the evergreen element better then the original snake oil smell


  18. spicey and resinous, this one enthrals me i need more PLEASE!!!! :P this scent is the prefect balance of spice and resin to me, i wish i new which spices and but the resins are amber and possibly frankencinse or myrhh. beautiful did i say that?
