  1. Imp: neroli and verbena
    Wet on Me: ahhhh touches of lavender, and verbena with rosemary waiting in the wings.
    Drying Down: lavender and rosemary and the neroli and verbena keep them from being too sharp. faint resin traces of the frankincense waft shyly all about.
    Dry: this all smooths out to this herbal floral resinous love.


  2. Imp: heavy heavy dragon's blood and vetiver
    Wet on Me: still heavy dragon's blood and veitver. hoping that as it dries I get more than that
    Drying: getting the musk now and it's mingling with the dragon's blood and vetiver to become this heady cloud. really overwleming
    Dry: mostly the red musk and never got any patchouli. Which is weird because my skin loves patchouli. thank heavens the vetiver faded.


    Glad I got to try it, but it is not for me. Off to the trade pile!


  3. ... Yuzu, kaki, and mikan with cherry blossom and black tea.

     

    Imp: aquatic white flowers
    Wet on me: heady aquatic white flowers
    Drying Down: still heady flowers, less aquatic. Seems like the tea cut that out.
    Dry: this is pretty but too heady for me.

    Off to the Trade pile


  4. Imp: definitely getting deep green faint traces of fruit and something...."dark"
    Wet on Me: more dark fruits trying to get all heady on me but bumpin into that green
    Drying Down: soap. dark fruity green soap.
    Dry: kinda of a fruity soap.

    Think I'll put this one on the trade pile!


  5. Imp: musk and amber and almond
    Wet on Me: that cherry almond note with the amber hiding in the wings
    Drying Down: creamy now. less of that dratted almond note and more of the cardamom and saffron warming up the amber and musk
    Dry: creamy and sweet but not sugar sweet. like a chai sweet. the amber and musk keep it from going too sweet. just warm and sunny and creamy.


  6. Imp: light, happy, clean, citrus-y with a powdery under note
    Wet on Me: clean. light white floral, bubbly sparkling happy citrus with no charpness
    Drying Down: the citrus is fading to a heady white floral. Kind of swirling under my nose remind me who is in control of my scent experience.
    Dry: this is a powder-y tropical floral scent. it kinda reminds me of that old old Avon scent White Hawaiian Ginger.

  7. Lawful


    Imp: wood and green
    Wet on me: mostly the wood notes
    Drying Down: wood with faint traces of the chamomile
    Dry: This smells like my grandmother's armoire did when I was visiting her growing up. Love it~


  8. The spirit of temptation, the essence of lost innocence. Apple blossom, rose, ylang ylang and golden honey.

     

    Imp: ylang ylang and apple blossom
    Wet on Me: ooohhh apple now
    Drying Down: heck. rose is doing an appearance under my nose. this means all other notes are pushed to the rear never to be smelt again
    Dry: Rose? why you doing me a hate?


  9. Imp: mmmmm juniper and patchouli to start
    Wet on Me: still juniper and patch and loving so far....I have hope
    Drying Down: okay getting the myrrh note now. has an old ancient forest type vibe.
    Dry: mostly myrrh now. all the lovely patch and juniper got scared and ran off.


  10. Imp: really dark heady old floral
    Wet on Me: powdery dark floral
    Drying Down: powdery and sweet from the sandalwood, musk and amber. the floral has faded a touch
    Dry: this is definitely giving me 'male' vibes. sweet but deep and woody/resin-y.


  11. Imp: stright up red patchouli and vetiver
    Wet on Me: more patchouli than the vetiver. crossing fingers because vetiver does not do me a happy
    Drying Down: the patch is working hard to keep that vetiver at bay.
    Dry: yay!!!! Patchouli saves the day!!!!!


  12. I can't believe it has taken me until NOW to test this imp!

     

    Imp: Cedar? why am I getting cedar
    Wet On Me: sharp, almost medicinal cedar
    Drying Down: finally getting some of the patchouli notes...but it smells like it's been wrapped in cedar....could that be the sandalwood and frankincense tag teaming?
    Dry: resin, incense, patchouli and the inside of a cedar chest. Not a bad thing, a comforting thing.


  13. Imp: musk and sandalwood
    Wet on me: this is dark swirling headiness, all musk and incense
    Drying Down: rapidly turning into baby powder incense. i tend to turn amber notes into baby powder.
    Dry: the baby powder notes faded to a smooth incense scent.


  14. Imp: light dusty musty floral like you would find at your Great Auntie's armoire
    Wet on Me: still a dusty musty floral
    Drying Down: okey dokey now. air freshener rose, lilac and bandaids.
    Dry: yeah. Rose and Lilac teamed up to become bullies on my skin.


  15. Imp: okay. cake. sugary cake
    Wet on Me: cake cake cake. Cakeity cakes. I think I amp sugar scents. But we will find out!
    Drying Down: less cake. slight vanilla. no currents....yet
    Dry: vanilla cake. the currants finally came out of hiding but are only a shadow that adds a slight sharpness under the vanilla cake. I'm really not a foodie scent person. at least a baked goods foodie scent.


  16. Imp: rose and jasmine are fighting to the death under my nose
    Wet on Me: now I get that 'cat-pee' note people mention about and rose.....
    Drying Down: Why does rose loathe me so? it's like I'm a red-headed step child
    Dry: yuppers....I keep trying with rose and it keeps hating on me :(


  17. Simply cool, the essence of Lounge: the scent of a crisp pomegranate martini.

     

    Imp: oh hello lovely pomegranate! your color is sultry and sexy and lux. Your scent is the same
    Wet on Me: oh lovely dark tempting pomegranate I do love how you love my skin
    Drying Down: this pom is wonderful! really not getting the booze but dayum honey you wank!
    Dry: By all the gods this is divine! I need a gallon of this to bathe in!!
