  1. 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


  2. 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.


  3. 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


  4. 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


  5. 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


  6. 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


  7. 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.


  8. ahhhhh :P

     

    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


  9. 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 :P


  10. 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. :P it made me nauseous and i wanted to scrub my arm w/ a brillo pad to get it off. :D where oh where are the lovely violets?


  11. awesome

     

    wet was all pine, and i mean all, but not pine sol, real juicy, sappy, fresh cut pine

     

     

    as it dried it was vanilla amber lovliness, simply gorgeous, this isn't one i would classify as purely manly, i definitely would wear this, and now i am dying for g to try it and see how it goes on him, either way this is def a big bottle scent


  12. yes moss is the top note for me, behind it soft florals, zombi was too dirt like for my taste but this has enough different notes that i can like it it has the moss, some spice, some incense, some fl,oral and a touch of dirt


  13. in the vial and wet yowza, that is lavander

     

    as it dried the florals came out. not distinguishable florals for me, but a boquet of florals and a spice background that i love, i def smell some cinnamon

     

    i didn't like the wet version but the dry is very nice :P


  14. this one is odd for me wet it was weird i can't even describe the smell...i didn't get any of the notes mentioned just an odd like cabinet type smell...weird

     

    as it dried it became very ginger and a touch of vanilla, w/ a hint of the cabinet smell...very different, i will try it again before really making up my mind


  15. this is almost pure jasmine when wet, a bit of deep green juniper berry becomes evident as it begins to dry. usually jasmine gets very overpowering and sharp on me, this one however doesn't get sharp, i am still not a huge jasmine fan but this is not too bad


  16. wow i love this one, it smells like freshly ground tonka i use to make incense. light upon application and grows stronger w/ time, although it never gets "strong" it keeps a slightly sweet light lovely smell i adore tonka


  17. As if the name didn’t spell it out for you. This blend relieves all sexual inhibitions by simultaneously relaxing and arousing.


    this was a soft, nutty, cinnamon, but not over poweringly cinnamon, it has an almost powder like backdrop, very different than i expected, it is very nice, i shall update when i find out how well "it works"
