Ajila

In the bottle - A soft blue lavender

Wet on me - A sweet comforting ball of flowers; mostly the camomile but the others are there, with just a hint of honey running across it

Dry on me - A soft hazy herbal scent that envelops and folds in on itself

Overall - I quite enjoyed this, but my mum is currently training to be a healer so I thin this might make a nice present for her

In the bottle - Surprisingly enough roses with an undercurrent of bubblegum

Wet on me - Really, really lush red roses, really sweet sugary bubblegum but there's a sharp almost nail varnish remover type scent beneath

Dry on me - A faint red rose scent with just a hint of candyfloss like sweetness in the background

Overall - I don't know. This was my most coveted blend for ages; I wanted and expected to love it, but I just don't

In the bottle - Pencil shavings

Wet on me - A slightly chemical almost bleach like scent with those pencil shavings on the background

Dry on me - Mostly still pencil shavings

Overall - Not for me

In the bottle - Smoke, sandalwood and a hint of sweetness

Wet on me - A soft vanilla and a lost of almost peppery sandalwood

Dry on me - A light, sweet, musky scent with hints of resinous depth beneath

Overall - I'm not certain on the wet stages, but the dry down is amazing

In the bottle - Coals yes, but surprisingly green and almost berryish, I'm almost inclined to say juniper

Wet on me - Ash and soot

Dry on me - Surprisingly cool, the last remnants of a fire

Overall - It does what it says on the tin I guess, but it's not really me

In the bottle - A ball of white florals

Wet on me - A soft slightly green, slightly powdery floral

Dry on me - For 5 hours nothing but a slightly meh white floral. Then suddenly we have musk and sugar and it has that powdered floral sweetness of Hope and Faith

Overall - The dry down equals love, but the first 5 hours less so

In the bottle - Tart/creamy fruit a bit like a fruity yoghurt

Wet on me - Tart fruits, I want to say blue berries because of the colour, but I'm not convinced

Dry on me - A clean candylike fruit, sweet and crisp

Overall - I love it, it's sweet but not in your face about it

In the bottle - A dry warm cocoa

Wet on me - Dry powdery cocoa with a hint of something vaguely citrusy

Dry on me - Ashes and dishwater. Woe

Overall - This just didn't work on my skin

In the bottle - A hard woody frankincense

Wet on me - Rich and woody and a bit pencil shaving-y but with an almost berryish mellowness beneath

Dry on me - A soft smooth frankincense with a hint of vanilla

Overall - I was hoping for more vanilla and I wonder if a little age may bring it out more

In the bottle - A deep piney tree sap

Wet on me - A deep rich incensy sap

Dry on me - A soft hazy sap

Overall - Surprisingly soft in the end but not really my cup of tea

In the bottle - A soft lush floral with an indollike undertone

Wet on me - A light green powdery floral but still with that indol

Dry on me - A soft powdery floral

Overall - I have to say I figure that this has jasmine in it and jasmine just doesn't work on my skin

In the bottle - Clean worn leather

Wet on me - A soft, hazy clean leather

Dry on me - Smooth clean washed leather

Overall - A really nice leather scent, for me I would want something else with it.

In the bottle - Smoke and sulphur and old spice

Wet on me - Washing detergent

Dry on me - Clean salty water

Overall - Not really my cup of tea

In the bottle - Lush roses and a hint of apple

Wet on me - Soft damp rose petals

Dry on me - A soft fuzzy floral

Overall - Pretty, but not really me

In the bottle - A sweet slightly heady almost booze like floral

Wet on me - Washing detergent; there is a hint of soft lush floral beneath, but mostly I get washing detergent

Dry on me - A sweet hazy musky floral

Overall - I love the dry down, but the washing detergent wet stages not so much

In the bottle - Grass sap and I would have said sharp green apples

Wet on me - Mostly freshly cut grass with a hint of sweetness

Dry on me - A soft green scent that disappears

Overall - Very faint really

In the bottle - A rich dark cocoa scent

Wet on me - Soft warm hot chocolate

Dry on me - A sweet milky hot chocolate with wafts of vanilla

Overall - Very nice indeed

In the bottle - The sweet rich honey wine with the berrylike undertones

Wet on me - The lilac comes through over the backdrop of honey wine

Dry on me - A light sweet almost candied floral

Overall - Pretty, delicate and feminine

In the bottle - Bright fresh lemons

Wet on me - A pale green slight fizzy citrus muck scent

Dry on me - Nothing at all

Overall - Got completely eaten by my skin

In the bottle - A sharp musk and sappy green florals

Wet on me - A sharp woodsy musk with tart berries just beginning to come through

Dry on me - It disappeared on my skin

Overall - Just got eaten by my skin

In the bottle - Bright zesty lime with a tonic like undertone

Wet on me - A black tar sort of scent and soap

Dry on me - A clean woody musk scent with hints of tobacco

Overall - Whilst it's not really my cup of tea, I did enjoy this much more than I expected

In the bottle - Salty water, soapy fir and a touch of floral

Wet on me - Soft soapy florals particularly the hyancinth

Dry on me - A slightly sweet, slightly soapy floral

Overall - Pleasant enough but not relay my cup of tea

In the bottle - Bright, tart strawberries and a hint of lush rose

Wet on me - A green grassy note comes out beneath fizzy strawberries and rich velvety roses

Dry on me - A lovely sweet gauzy red musky candy floss confection of strawberries and roses

Overall - I love this. It's really pretty and bright but the rose just adds a touch more depth

In the bottle - It must be the honey musk but I got beeswax and a hint of the gardenia

Wet on me - The honey comes through more clearly, but still has a waxy quality to it

Dry on me - Soft, sweet honey with a clean slightly waxy undertone and just hints of a soft gentle floral

Overall - My favourite of the Lilith/Pickman blends actually it's curiously similar to BPTP's Hair Loosened & Soiled Mid Orgies Hair Gloss, but lighter and cleaner, which I guess is appropriate really

In the bottle - Wood, very sappy wood

Wet on me - A green soapy sap oddly with a sort of vanillary undertone

Dry on me - A dark green salty sap with a hazy vanilla musk to it

Overall - Nicer than I expected but not really me
