On Bottle: Soap and rose. On Skin: It smells like a rose scented dish soap on me at first. Very clean and fresh. While I don’t like rose or soap scents… part of me wants to keep it and try again and see if it really does all it says. I’m a Leo so I’m half feline and they name appealed to me right away. Now there is a mint note showing through… interesting but not quite me.

In Bottle: Cocoa and wine. On Skin: This is decadent. Dark cocoa and boozy rum and wine. This smells evil and sinister but sickly sweet. This would be a great scent for a club or fetish night… very naughty. The cocoa also gives a little of a smoky scent. I love the description of this scent… it goes perfect with this amazing blend by Beth.

In Bottle: Mint and plants. On Skin: Very green scent that fits the name Envy well. The mint is strong with a pretty bed of lavender to lay upon. The lime gives a tart sour tint that adds to the greeness of this scent. A light, clean, refreshing scent that screams outdoorsy. I'd also love to use this as a linen spray.

In Bottle: Lillies and resin. On Skin: The lillies stand out in this scent along with the other florals. The opium, or whatever resin note that is emulating it, is secondary but gives a nice fluid depth. The flowers meld togther perfectly so it’s hard to pick out each note other than the obvious lilles. Beautiful but a bit too floral for me.

In Bottle: Sweet wine. On Skin: Wow! I’ve never smelled a wine scent this sweet, almost bubblegummy. The mimosa blended with the wine must be the reason. The clove is soft, warm and spicy. This scent is very delicious… foody and comforting. It feels like curling up in front of the fireplace after a good meal. Another scent I’d rather use as a room spray than wear. After 10 minutes, the clove becomes a bit overpowering and this scent turns yucky on me.

In Bottle: Spicy berries. On Skin: The amber is strongest on my skin… followed by the juicy berries. The iris seems lost in the sea of spices… I love amber scents so this one is quite pretty. The scent remains the same on my skin after quite some time. I like it…

In Bottle: Sweet flowers. On Skin: Pink! Floral, strawberry and sugar. I don’t smell the dogwood yet… The pink sugar and honey sweeten this deliciously. The scent smells edible. I expected it to be more cotton candyish, but the florals make it more springlike, pretty and adult. I’m hoping it will sweeten up with time because I was wanting more of the pink sugar note…

In Bottle: Honey and orange blossom. On Skin: Beautiful! So sweet yet elegant. This is a perfect scent…The honey is so sweet, yet the rose and orange blossom provide a floral tartness. The sandalwood adds woody depth that counters the sweetness of the scent and makes it more adult and sexy. I want a larger bottle of this.

In Bottle: Floral woody elegance. On Skin: Nefertiti is one of my goddesses so I have high hopes with this scent. This is so elegant… the iris is top note. The sandalwood and nyrrh give a husky, confident note. Feminine yet strong. I love this! I could picture Nefertiti wearing this… I just expected it to be a bit more spicy. This is a scent a queen would wear and people would love bowing to her.

In Bottle: Musk and spice. On Skin: The musk is strongest… the oleander and magnolia second. Ooohhh… a musky floral that is beautiful. The mandarin is showing itself now… yum! This is sexy… the spices are even sweet. It’s such a contradiction, sweet yet wicked. It’s very dark and intriguing, you can’t ignore this scent. Another one I want a bottle of. As the scent wears on the magnolia becomes the strongest note. A bit sickly sweet for me, but still a beautiful scent.

In Bottle: Sweet Floral On Skin: The clover and orchid are in the front… elegant and feminine. The apple blossom is very sweet and fruity. The moss and hawthorn give a nice outdoorsy feel. This smells like a meadow in full bloom. Very pretty… I think florals are starting to grow on me.

In Bottle: Rose! And something sweet… almost fruity, must e the merlot. On Skin: Wow, I usually dilike rose but the levels in this scent are very impressive. The leather and musk make this scent stand out and scream. I love the berry scent of the merlot. The violets and myrtle are quiety residing in the background. This is a sexy scent that projects a strong confident woman. I love it! It does fade very quickly though…

In Bottle: Lime and citron. On Skin: This is very tart, the lime and citron own this scent. Almost too much… I’m getting the Lemon Pledge thing from this scent. It reminds me of Severin a little since it’s a nice citrus masculine scent. The musk is nice and I’m not actually smelling the lilac yet. I wonder if I could get my husband to try this one…

In Bottle: Hello grapefruit!!! On Skin: Hmmm… spicy and citrus. The grapefruit is obviously the strongest note. The orris and black amber give a dark spicy background. The bergamot and plum compliment the grapefruit nicely, an amazing fruit scent. Light, fresh and juicy. Yes, I feel like I could drink this.

In Bottle: Sweet thick wine. On Skin: The wine note is syrupy sweet and thick. I think the myrrh is adding to that. The musk gives a nice darker note and makes the scent a bit more evil. The rose gives it a feminine feel and is actually pretty and faint. I really like this scent… it is heavy at first but fades to a more tolerable sweetness.

In Bottle: Orange and chocolate On Skin: Very foody! This smells like a chocolate shop. Chocolate covered orange peels and chocolate covered cherries. Tasty! But alas, I don’t think I want to smell like that. Maybe if it was just chocolate, but the orange bothers me a bit since I really don’t like chocolate covered orange peels… they are my mom’s favorite, maybe she’d like this…

In Bottle: Sharp pennyroyal and lavender. On Skin: Wow! This is interesting. Very pungent… the pennyroyal I think. The lavender softens it a bit… But I do think this scent is too sharp for me. A good eyeopener though!

In Bottle: MAN! Sandalwood, musk… mmmm… On Skin: This is the sexiest men’s scent I’ve smelled yet. Beautiful. It just drips “man”. I will be making my husband try this one for sure. I don’t smell the orange at all… but the rest of the scents melt together so well and make a perfect overall scent! Ladies, make your men try this!

In Bottle: Berries, lime and floral. On Skin: Very pretty! This reminds me of Dior’s Poison (one of my favorite scents)! It is a little sweeter though… maybe that’s the berries. The lime is very strong… interesting. The galbanum and opponax give some nice spicy resin notes. The jasmine gives it an elegant floral edge and berries make it juicy and sweet. I love this. I want a big bottle and some perfumers alchohol to make a spray.

In Bottle: VIOLET! On Skin: This screams purple… violet to be exact. But the mint and eucalyptus make it have a sharp medicinal scent I dislike immensely. This is very stong and seems to hate my body chemistry. I have to wash it off, it is much too pungent. Sad… since purple is my favorite color.

In Bottle: Lilac and wood. On Skin: The lilac and lavender stand out... the violet as well… then the wooded note. Very light and floral. Fluttery and soft. It reminds me of Ultraviolet. This is an extreme floral scent but pretty and subdued. Floral is not for me, but I bet this would be beautiful on someone else.

In Bottle: Resin and wood. On Skin: The strongest note is a wood of some sort… and the resin scent I smell is sweet and dark. It reminds me of the woods at night. I am not the biggest fan of the Sephiroth series, but this one I feel neutral on. I don’t dislike it, but I don’t love it either. It’s a pretty mellow peacful scent and I like stronger, bolder scents.

In Bottle: Herbal floral. On Skin: The herbs give a sweet minty note. The blossoms and white flowers give a beautiful bright floral note. Oddly, this reminds me of the Glade Plugin scent “Butterfly Garden”. Very pretty and springlike but a bit too floral for my tastes. And this is feminine without a doubt, I can’t even begin to imagine this on a man.

In Bottle: Coffee and fig. On Skin: The coffee is strongest and I like the vanilla and tonka bean… but what are florals doing with coffee? This scent just doesn’t seem to meld correctly, it smells a bit funky and off to me. No offense to Beth, it just doesn’t work for me personally. But I do love the idea… After about 10 minutes the coffee fades and the vanilla and florals smell pretty together… but the slight lingering note of coffee makes me decide this one is off to the swaps.

In Bottle: Rose and lily. On Skin: This scent reminds me of a light perfume my mom used to wear when I was a kid. I don’t remember the name, but I remember the soft florals and powdery background. This is pretty but far too floral and tart for me. The sandalwood, amber and myrrh give nice depth and substance, but the florals still overpower them. I don’t smell the moss or Mandarin yet, they must be blended very well. Anyone fond of strong florals and woody scents, give this one a try.
