On my skin all this gives me is tea rose, not luscious but quite sedate almost aunt-ish. I cant smell the cinnamon specifically but it does have a certain spiciness to it.
Its very pretty but not the sexy wet rose i was hoping for.

In the imp: Sweet sweet honey with a hint of amber
Wet: Slightly less sweet honey but i can definitely smell the vanilla now.
Dry: Honey and Vanilla soften and the amber peeks through a bit more. It reminds me a lot of TBS's vanilla oil.
Overall this is a bit too sweet for me but i can understand how ppl would go nuts for it. Didnt help that my bf said it reminded him of his Nanna's Bathroom
* after having this on for a bit longer the powdery amber is what i am getting the most. I think the vanilla and honey are hiding from me now...

This is my first review so i apologize if it is a bit inadequate I got my first order this afternoon and Snake Oil was the first i chose to try on my wrist.
In the imp and wet on my wrist i could hardly smell the vanilla mostly just a slightly sharp but sweet incense/spicy smell. It was a bit like standing between an occult shop and a spicey indian grocery store at a market. A bit more in your face than what i would usually wear!
The drydown was much better. The spices softened and the vanilla made itself known but wasn't overpowering.
Overall this is such a different take on vanilla and is a bit full on but absolutely worth trying!
