bubblegum! but like the bland sorta cinnamon type. mellows a lot on the dry down sweet candy now yes. but not very sweet. its almost sugar free its strange i like it pretty well. but i might swap it if i dont reach for it enough
-
i say use wolf's heart it always makes me feel more confident
-
hmm i would recommend velvet it does have chcolate and ... sandalwood i think but its a very mellow scent its not incense or foody just a thought...
-
im impressed that everyone liked this because i didnt... i was extremely disappointed with it. but i was wanting that suntan oil sort of smell.
-
the starts off very lilly of the valley sandalwood elegant is the best word to describe it. i can see how some one would get a soapy scent out of it. but i think its the mix of florals. im expecting the opium to jump out and ground me at any moment. mmhmm i like it. its a keeper. its a clean scent... but it is hiding some sinister in the background

i think nyx would work for you too... i think -
i have the grief and loss of this being discontiuned (thought it would sound funny and ironic - sorry lol) i really like this one its already made my top 10.. .and i feel very lucky to get two impies of it it really does feel like salty very slightly warm tears falling down a face but its not depressing at all its warm and sweet though slightly cool and distant. i enjoy it muchly

Terminally alluring. A deep, wickedly passionate scent, compelling and commanding in it's feminine allure: attar of rose, jasmine, myrrh, red sandalwood, red wine, and East African black patchouli. this smells like artifical grapes out of the bottle and i couldnt even bring myself to put it on i hate that smell off to swap you went!!
-
i really like this one though i dont wear it often (also hopingn i havent reviewed this before ekk!) its very light and VERY green its what i would want real absinthe to smell like.. if that makes any sense at all another master piece my dear beth when my imp runs out i will indeed buy more it is the green scent of choice
-
im an orchid lover i loooove queen mab to me this is not just a rose scent it is so well done, i want more!!!! its not a very stand out sort of thing. its just beautiful, graceful and earthy. the lavender and orchid stand out on me the most which makes this a very relaxing sort of blend. it doesnt last all that long, but i find reapplying a little does the trick and yes, i want more!
-
the thing i enjoy about this scent is the orchid the rest of it is just ok fortunetly i have found a much better blend of it in queen mab off to swaps with you

Limited editions equivalents in the general catalog?

i thought the exact same thing when i smelled it! made me happy and i have to say i dont think dana o'shee smells anything like snow white.. cause i looooove snow white -
it reminds me of a fresh juicy pomigrante with a deep grounding musk? or something heavy and comforting its gorgeous.. though its a scent that i have to be in the mood for and for future reference dont mix it with the coiled serpent both are great indepently of each other but together no way hehe
-
i was disappointed in this because making sugar cookies is my favorite part of christmas. this smelt of burnt over floured cookies. oh well... i still love everything else so far.
-
this is a beautiful blend and i recommend it to anyone who likes amber. it smells like pale gold to me. anchient and comforting. sexy yet low key. the saffron really gives this a kick in a good way it wore on strong for the first couple of hours and now has settled down into a soft kiss of amber on my wrist. beautiful.
-
i love this cannot stop smelling myself! it smells creamy, but not heavy at all. there is a booziness to it but it reminds me of rum cake, like its been partially baked. this scent is dead on. probably my favorite out of the yule scents
-
this smells exactly like new orleans to me its almost as if there is a tea note and something else sweet in the background whywhywhy was this discontinued!! i love it sooo much please bring it back beth i have seen no real bad review for it either! anyway i want to bathe in this.. it smells too good!
-
i agree with miggins go for the swap boards if i didnt use it i wouldnt have over 100 imps right now not that that is a good thing.... what am i saying.. yes it is. hehe i find that certain florals go powder on me... like rose would be the number one to do that but not in every blend it just takes time to find which notes work best
-
i love this scent its how i want to smell during the late spring early winter its very comforting... maybe because i always have blackberry sage tea after a long day. it was better than i expected it to be, its fresh and sweet yet has an excellent grounding, possibly musk. dont know about a big bottle yet but i will certainly use the imp
-
i dont know why but when i smelled it i though... lotus if it has any lotus i do not know, but it seems to. i like it pretty well, but not something i would want to wear all the time. hopefully a more indepth review will follow
-
i have a very vivid memory of eating a huge cherry lollipop that tasted like then when i was about 4 or 5! insane that i remember it i know... wet- cherry... and something heavy drydown- smells like rootbeer and im really glad its not scream anise at me cause its not my favorite so far so good. thanks to the lab for this freebie! i would have never picked it out myself.
-
i dont smell lemon at all its something else.... i know this smell lingering in the background... so familiar. something like iris maybe? i love this scent, the lavender is heavenly and whatever else is in it too (i cant tell) definetly a keeper, dont know about a big bottle yet... but maybe *edit to add* It must be bergamont!!! yes i think that is what it is instead of lemon
-
i have been on a big voodoo kick lately and i am trying all of them as soon as i can! this smells wonderful it light almond and ... sweet/light cherry and something very warm lingering im so glad i tried this
