wow this smells exactly like my patchouli eye pillow, it is a dry, earthy smell, somewhat reminds me of dried catnip
-
whew, i have found this in one or two blends, and now i know exactly what gave me the morning breath impression, this smells exactly like bad breath to me blech
-
to me this is very masculine, clean smelling, i was raised in the south, and have smelled real spanish moss, it was a bit dustier then this note, i liek the note better, it is a green, sharp clean smell almost smells "sunny"
-
this is indeed, oakmoss, my cousin and i would pick the lichen off the trees as children and it left the exact same smell on our hands, yes i agree it does faintly smell of new dollar bills, this is a very earthy green scent w/o being "sharp"
-
to me this is a biting floral, it actually burns my nose and makes my eye swim, it is very sharp, floral
-
i love mimosa trees, they are one of my favorites.
this didn't really remind me of teh tree, it is very very light, hardly detectable, but almost has a musky type smell, very odd
-
i am another one that doesn't think man that is masculine, it is very sexy, i love this scent it is warm, sensual, and envelopes me.
-
this smells exactly like the stargazer lillies in a friends yard, full of pollen and wafting all the way down the road.
-
i don't really get the "citrus" smell form this, it is a heady floral though. and it seems that yes the smell is that of walking through a perfume section at the mall
-
this is exactly the smell of crushed tomato leaves on a warm summer day in the garden. very clean crisp, nice
-
this is a sweet, sharp, floral, citrussy smell, it kind of reminds me of a big bowl of fruit loops, it actually makes my mouth tingle and salivate.
-
holy heck batman, that there is some strong apple blossom, yes it smells quite like the real thing only magnified abt 100 fold whew it is a strong one
-
this one smells exactly like the coconut i use to make coconut creme eggs at easter, it actually makes my mouth water, simply yummy
-
deep, warm, thick, and yes it smells exactly like the resin i use to make incense. i love this note.
-
this is a beautiful blend
wet it was very rose
dry it became more complex, the honey pops up most, then the orange twists it's way through the mix and rose continually pops in and out here and there just to keep me intrigued.
GORGEOUS!
-
oh my oh my oh my
this is a carnation, & plum, i wouldn't go so far as to say sweet, it is incredible, the musk slithers around in teh background, and deepens this i love it, i dn't know if i am starting to pick better notes for myself or if i am being brainwashed to love every scent, this is just a lovely incredible gorgeous blend!
-
wow this is swarthy and dark and spicey
wet it was mostly myrrh
as it dried it became more demensional altho it never got quite "fruity" i could detect the currant as it dried,
final thoughts, it is spicer then i expected, and became lighter and nicer as it dried. to me this is a nice wintery scent.
-
wow i loved every stage of this one
wet it was very almondy
as it dried it became a milkey sweet boquet of roses
completely dry is a soft sweet boquet, sometimes i get roses, sometimes carnation it is simpley beautiful, sigh another bog bottle, how will i wear it all?
-
wet this is all jasmin and i am no jasmine fan, i have learned i do like some of beth's floral blends, but jasmine has yet to win me over
as it dries the metal edge of jasmine tames a bit and amber is starting to shine, i smell a bit of orchid, i am hoping rose eventually shows up, i wanted this one partly because of teh short case, a partly because i am trying to try all the blends, i am glad i tried this, it is dark, sweet, and almost overpoweringly floral, but the amber keeps it from going over the top, this is one w/ a strong throw, but the smell on my skin is different then the smell wafting around me, nice
-
this is incredibly sweet, almost overpoweringly so, it kind of reminds me of bubblegum of some sort
-
wowser, this is yummy plum, boozy, smoke scent, i adore it i want it, sigh this is just delish
-
i am slightly embarrased to say i got this one w/ my first imp purchase and never tried it since it is a floral and well i didn't *think* i liked florals so now i decided to go thru imps and get rid of the not me ones, and i come upon wings
in the vial: hmmm violets smells kinda like my sybaris (in my top 2 scents)
wet oh yeah baby that is the ticket those r some gorgeous violets
dry it has a violet and slightly peppery smell, possibly myrrh, i do not get any lily thank goodness as lily usually gives me a headache this is another 5ml one for me
-
in the vial a clean citrussy scent
on it becomes all green tea
as it dries i get a green tea and hint of something akin to pepper
it is a very green clean, soft scent,
-
this is gorgeous, i love it, it faintly reminds me of carnations, i adore this note.
Vetiver

i also like straight vetiver, maybe not as an everyday scent but it is a deep, almost sinister, dark, earthy scent, it reminds me of deep deep forests, it is a very strong powerful scent
