  1. In the bottle - A softly fruity musk

     

    Wet on me - I can't quite place it, something green and sweet, with a hint of soft light musk

     

    Dry on me - A brown, almost chocolatey musk

     

    Overall - I prefer the wet stages, dry it just has a slightly bitter after smell


  2. In the bottle - Oddly like some sort of soothing lotion

     

    Wet on me - Again it smells like some sort of soothing lotion, the best I can come up with is camomile lotion, but it's not quite that

     

    Dry on me - More of a smooth skin scent than anything else

     

    Overall - Didn't really work for/on me


  3. In the bottle - A bright green lemony citrus note. Like lemon verbena on acid

     

    Wet on me - An almost lemony geranium scent

     

    Dry on me - Faint hints of light green musk

     

    Overall - Not really for me


  4. In the bottle - Sweet, delicate green florals

     

    Wet on me - Soft, delicate, almost sugared violets

     

    Dry on me - A soft musky green floral

     

    Overall - Pretty, but really not me


  5. In the bottle - Bubble gum and musk and possibly some sort of sickly sweet liqueur

     

    Wet on me - Really bright sickly sweet bubble gum with a hint of almost dry ozone beneath

     

    Dry on me - A smooth creamy almost green vanilla note

     

    Overall - A really unusual blend. I like it, but I'm not convinced I'd wear it


  6. In the bottle - A light floral scent I can't place a resinous undertone

     

    Wet on me - Red musk and again that slightly powdery floral

     

    Dry on me - A soft powdery sweetness touched with the gentlest of musks

     

    Overall - It's almost like a softer version of Joop! Pour Homme, which is one of the few commercial perfumes I still wear, so I like it a lot, but I do have other similar feeling scents


  7. In the bottle - Rich juicy red fruits, with an underlying creamy vanilla

     

    Wet on me - Soft almost floral berries, a hint of cherry and a haze of musk

     

    Dry on me - Soft, light berries with hints of vanilla

     

    Overall - I love the wet stages, but in the final dry down it's a little meh


  8. In the bottle - Sweet clean honey with a touch of apple blossom

     

    Wet on me - A lovely green fresh honey

     

    Dry on me - A lovely warm soft gentle honey

     

    Overall - A light pretty summers day of a scent. I prefer my scents a little deeper, but this would be brilliant for me layered over something resinous or musky


  9. In the bottle - Soft, slightly bitter almonds with a very clean back drop

     

    Wet on me - Soft, sweet almonds, but with a dry feel rather than the gooeyness of normal "sweet almonds"

     

    Dry on me - It fades quickly into not a lot at all

     

    Overall - I like the almonds, but I like other almond blends better and the last longer


  10. In the bottle - Sharp green, bright lilies and soap

     

    Wet on me - Green, high pitched lilies

     

    Dry on me - Lilies, lilies and more lilies

     

    Overall - Lilies aren't really my cup of tea so I didn't really get on with this blend


  11. In the bottle - An incensy honey with just a touch of soap

     

    Wet on me - Oddly, I get perfumed pencil shavings, it's a bit like cheap pot pourri

     

    Dry on me - A smooth woody note with hints of soap and musk

     

    Overall - I was so looking forward to this, but in the end it didn't work on my skin


  12. In the bottle - Soft, candied red fruits and a touch of bark

     

    Wet on me - Red fruit flavoured boiled sweets with a hint of cream

     

    Dry on me - A faint, dry fruit note

     

    Overall - It faded very quickly on me and never really developed
