This is the hold of a ship, with the scent of the seas and stolen cargos of precious incense, bound for the Vatican. This is a keeper and another to add to my favorites list.

Wet: Hyper masculine, to the point where I was ready to wash it off, but got busy & neglected to do so Dry/later: OMG, heavenly roses w/a bit of chamomile. So glad DS wasn't around to catch this in the wet phase. He wouldn't want to smell of a rose garden whereas I am only too happy catching whiffs of roses. Very little throw to this particularly in the dry phase, so will keep the imp, but probably not a bottle. My niece wants a bottle so will probably order her one in my next order.

In the imp - this must be what the Garden of Paradise smells like - Florals, running water. Wet: Almost all gardenia Dry down: Still gardenias Later: Ah, there's the muguet and water again, w/gardenia wanting to jump out and mug someone Very nice - will keep the imp and ponder a bottle.

My first scent, first review, first imp: In the vial - I could smell this through the many layers of tissue it was wrapped in. Hello, butterscotch! Wet - buttery, very sweet. Drydown: Butter has eased way up, coconut, and a little spicey. I can't smell the rum if I do a nose to the front of the wrist, but if I inhale it from the back of the wrist, there's the rum! Final verdict - sunbathing on a Caribbean beach, slathered in coconut suntan oil, whilst sipping a rum punch! So very glad I ordered the big bottle.
