shelldoo

this is sooo florally, white lilies and geranium, i don't get any citrus or sandalwood....must wash offfffffff btw i am an aries

i was not expecting to like this

 

it is an enticing blend of orange, balsom, and tobacco, intriguing, slumberous almost i like it will definitely use the imp, possibly douse dh w/ it

hmmmm

 

ludens cough drops

 

no, toilet freshners

 

 

no now it is cherry syrup.....

 

wow this one is very strong, but on me is not very great

 

ok i aged it a bit, and i tried it again after hearing so many rave about it. and wow my first review was so not right.

 

it is dragons blood, cherry when wet...almost overly cherry. but that burns off within minutes. then it is a myrrh and clove blend that makes me swoon. thanks to all those who raved about it and made me try it again

in the vial...ummm dirt


wet: yup potting soil

dry a bit of mossiness is saying hi, but no rose bummer. it is dirty and moss a warm sunny day digging on the shady side of a tree, moss and dirt i like dirty but this is too dirty man i am hard to please

smells all minty in the bottle

 

on it is mint and grapefruit, very clean, bright, sharp

 

 

i like a dirtier smell but this is pretty for those of you who like mintiness

i am learning if it is one of beth's rose blends try it straight away, so in my newest imp pile i seperated try first try next try last piles, this was in teh try first pile, and it was right on, i am in lust w/ it, it smells like roses and cinnamon but roses and cinnamon does not begin to describe it at the smae time it is roses and cinnamon having sex....how is that for a mental pic. anyway they are very entwined, very warm, very moist, very lush......sigh

this is a huge juicy sweet plum, when the juice starts running down yur arm cause it is so soft and ripe, but the grapefruit keeps it from going grape bubblegum on me very very pretty

oohhhh ohhhhhh

 

i adore thsi one

in the vial the carnation is very present,

 

wet the crnation mingles beautifully w/ the rose, the tea softend this so beautifully, i def need a big bottle

 

dry is very true to wet, i am in love

 

 

eta the dry i hit enter too soon

this in the vial, wet , and dry is all pine, a very nice almost sweetish pine, nice

hmmmph this is all floral on me when it was wet i could detect the sweet candy like smell of dragon's blood but when she dried it was all floral

this is odd i do not get aquatics really...i am getting a beautiful floral and a bunch of clover? very odd, i will update on how it makes me feel but the smell is defintly a beautiful summery day (i think there are violets in this)

this is very very licorice (anise i am guessing) and lemony..they are in a heated battle, light over dark i guess

 

 

uhoh started going cleanserish after a few minute yes soft scrub cleanser too bad i liked teh anise smell

this one is very citrus, ozone, mixture, it does smell like an ocean storm, but it bothers my nose something feirce.

well, lets just say i am learning *not* to say i am not a florals gal, first beth won me over to roses, and slowly but surely w/ violets, this is mostly violets on me, but there is a butteriness,i get the lilac and iris, not the lavender, w/ a touch of sandalwood, but it is ever so light, i do gte a hint of spicy buttery goodness floating around it, this is a siply gorgeous scent, i am gonna use the imp, and see if i need a big bottle

cinnamon and dragons blood completely smothered by flowers...if only the fowers would hide a bit more. sigh

in the vial it is a sweet fruity fun scent

 

on me it is a buttery cinnamon, sweet, very nice smell, i get a very red color from this i may get a big bottle

hmmm this is very herbal, i am not gettingcinnamon really...too bad i love cinnamon, this is all jaminey too jasminey...and my man says it smells like toilet freshner swaps it is

hmmm, straw, feilds, fresh earthy smell, very masculine on me....gonna try it on dh

wow this is very patchouli not getting the apricot much at all, everyonce in a while i get a whiff of it but it is fleeting i wish the apricot was stronger

very very floral, the lily of teh valley is the strongest note, and it is not one i am overly fond of...off to swaps

wow in the vial and wet i got no floral, i got the decay and ozone.

 

as it dried it went very jasmine w/ a hint of honeysuckle, i was hoping for a bit more spice another for swaps

hmmm in the wet stage i didn't smell rose at all, i thought maybe carnation...or possibly lily but it has a harsh green edge as it dried it became rosier which was nicer, but still i am unsure if i like the green edge....will try again before deciding.

in the vial: fruity peachy sweet

 

wet still very peachy but w/ an edge i assume is pomegranet

 

dry down. rose comes thru which is very nice as i prefer rose smells to fruity gorgeous. scent

in the vial it is very herbal, green

 

wet, sassafrass, rootbeer w/ a hint of herbs behind it

 

dry, the opium scent is heavier and mingling w/ the sassafrass, nice, i didn't have this on my must try list and it has been sitting in my imp box, but i decided i would try it before i moved it to the swap pile, glad i did it is a keeper.

very strong, sharp, irish spring soap. off to swaps
