Dry spice here. Not anything I can pick out and smells vaguely medicinal on me. To the swaps!

Hehehehe this is a diabolically good scent of fresh air and vegetation. Sharp and clear scent. I just read Lovecraft's story involving Whipporwills in "The Dunwich Horror" last week and loved this oil's reference to it.

OMG. I see what all the fuss is about I just have a wee sniffie of this, but the bit of oil I applied was an odiferous cloud of dark, rich and sweeet coffee with thick and fluffy clouds of whipped cream and a dash of rich syrup swirled in. Amazing!

Leather, metal, and a dark and spicy blast of something like vetiver that settled down to a smoldering background. Good scent, just not sure how often I'll wear it. Completely evocative of its subject, though

Wow! Thick, heavy clouds of opium and poppy! Doesn't have the sweet complexity of On Darkness for me, but is slightly more snarly and aggresive. Interesting scent, but I'll stick with my Yule rather than this Halloween version.

Sweet, very light floral with an herby overtone almost like lavender. Pretty, cooling and relaxing. Decent throw.

Light and very pretty rose scent. A freshness from the grapefruit is a very nice touch Barely any throw, but I ended up with two decants and will have to do further testing.

Niiiiiice. This is a rich amber spiced with dark orange and light patchouli spice. Glad I have a bottle now

A bombardment of edible carnival indulgences. Funnel cake, caramel apple, cotton candy, salt water taffy and sugar tart. Sugary goodness! I've tried the original and resurrected over the last few days and haven't noticed a great deal of difference between the two. I'm starting to appreciate the lab's sweet scents and this is a great one! Sugary, salty, and yummy with light throw. Edit to add scent description

Why god, whyyyyyy?!?! I've been trying to get my hands on this and just swapped with the lovely crebbsgirl to get my mitts on this... and it doesn't work! At all. It's a low-throw pleasant powder scent with a bit of incense in the background, but nowhere near the awesomness it looks like others get from this Sad. I'll swap it and make someone's day, I guess.

Hrm. I was pretty excited for this one, but I only get a warm scent with a touch of spice. A glowing, rich warmth to be sure, but not anything outstanding on my skin. So glad I got to try this! On to a new home, little Kunstkammer.

How can something with so many notes I adore be so....meh on me?!? I get a dry, herby smell and that's it! Nothing else. Little to no throw and didn't last long on my skin either. Dratted skin chemistry...

Oh my! I would guess this had blood orange in it if I wasn't looking at the notes. A burst of citrus sweetness with a fresh glow to it. Decent throw and staying power. I may have to track down mor of this. Refreshing scent and would be fantastic in a bath product of some kind

Light and sweet musk and honeysuckle scent. Not being very awake, I spilt half of my decant but I still had enough to test. Not a keeper, but a very pretty scent!

Oh my goodness! This is the surprise hit of the summer series for me I like a few aquatics like Calico Jack, but this is something else entirely! Sweet, fresh and not a hint of dryer sheet Light but with great throw. Perfect summer scent of clear, fresh water flowing like a melodic stream you stumble on while hiking. Awesome and bottle worthy!

This was one of the most anticipated scent of the summer series for me. I love masculine blends and every one of the notes could spell winner for my skin chemistry (although moss can be a little sketchy). Instead of a sweet versiou of Mole though, I get a rich smell an older gentleman might wear or a lovely scented tobacco. Masculine, but not overly so. Keeper

Very interesting! This is an odd, odd scent on me. I was hoping for dirt and hyssop, but I'm getting something really herbal. It smells like a golden field of hay and herbs rotting/drying in the sun and being blown by a breeze into my window at twilight. Seriously. All that in a scent! I can't really pin it down, but it's very reminiscent of a summer scent on my family farm. Strange, but sexy in a fertile land kind of way. I'll keep it for further teting.

Dark scent. Nothing really coming to the fore here, just a general sense of thick darkness that hangs out in a little cloud around my arm. Not a lot of throw and unfortunately smells pretty generic on me despite many notes I love

Mmm warm clouds of sugary fluff. I was really hoping for the dandelion and sap notes, but they only add depth to this scent and don't really come out over the sugar overload. Drat. Pretty smell - reminds me of bath products like Cocoa Pink or something that go for the uber-sweet variety of smells. Would be pretty in a lotion or something, but not really a "wear outside" scent on me.

Very iiinteresting... I was also a little leery or the goat milk note since milk notes don't often work on me in general. I was hoping for something similar to my beloved Miller vs. CA with its similar fig and cream notes. This was heavy on both when first applied and very, very reminiscent of Eden (the second bpal I ever tried - awww ) but it quickly turned into a sharp, bitter, and sour smell. Like a thick slab of goat cheese. Hrm. After awhile it settled into a thick, creamy, odiferous and slightly goaty smell. This is probably not a keeper, but I'll try it again to be sure.

The decant I received of this made the whole package smell like butterscotch It's a warm and joyous scent (what's not to love about pancakes!) Lots of syrup at first, but I started getting a hay/grain smell after a half hour or so. The goat butter makes it rich, but not too fake-butter smelling (futter?) like some butter scents go on me. Not too sweet, and not too shabby So glad I got to try this!

Finally, finally, finally! I've been trying to track down a decant of this forever! Lots of sugar and light fruitiness to this. It started going a bit synthetic/plastic on me after awhile. It was at its best a few hours after application where it was a light cloud of spun sugar and a hint of apple blossom (although I think that may be the note that made it go plastic to begin with...) I might try mixing this with Sugar Moon to see what happens. Pretty scent and I'm going to keep on trying to get it to work on my skin!

Light, pretty citrus/floral. Not very much throw - faded away to a light citrus grapefruit, but while wet there was a good grapefruit zing. Nice, veiled scent.

Sweet, dusty musk with a creamy undertone. Light at first, but once I started exercising I started getting crazy amounts of throw when I started getting warm <img src="http://www.bpal.org/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="icon_smile.gif" /> Doesn't have the extra zing that makes me love Giant Vulva so much, but I'll treasure my decant because I bet this stuff will be fantastic aged! ETA: Kack! Kack! Kack! Wooooooah this did not age in my favor Powder city and strong as an ox..an ox covered in powder.

It's weird how much this one smells like the Delirium I'm trying on my other arm - I keep going back and forth between the two and there's not much difference to my nose. A fruity, sweet scent with nothing really coming to the fore - smells like a nice shampoo or soap.
