    Santa Eularia Des Riu

    In the imp: strong citrus and jasmine, Wet on the skin: Very jasmine with citrus, orangey. Very bright and crisp. Drydown: the citrus comes out stronger on me as this dries down. I have to keep myself from washing this one off because I am not a fan of very citrusy fragrances and this is definately citrusy. I don't get any spice or herbs, just jasmine and citrus. The lavender starts showing up after a while too and that closes the deal for me. Not my type of scent.

    Pulse Points

    In the imp it smells very floral and heady. Ten minutes later on my skin it is still very floral and heady. Very powdery background to it, I can smell a little musk from it, but the narcissus is just too much for me. I wish the civet would come out more because it normally works so well on my skin. Oh well.

    Chypre

    All lavender with some violets and a little neroli thrown in for good measure. Very green. Becomes less strongly lavender as it wears down but still a little too much for me. This blend also faded very quickly on me, within an hour and just left a dial soap smell. Not something I could see myself wearing, but I'm happy I got to try it.

    Black Widow

    I'm so sad this has been discontinued because I love it so!!! Wine with jasmine and rose, but as it starts to wear down I can smell the patchouli and myrrh. This has nice throw too. Very strong scent, a drop is all you need. I need to get my hands on a bottle!! Narcotic and commanding.

    La Petite Mort

    This smells like O with ylang ylang and myrrh. So gorgeous!!! Creamy and sweet, I get a little musk after it has been on my skin for a little while. I'm so glad I got an imp of this because I need to order a bottle now. The ylang ylang isn't strong at all, and there is also a little spice to it. Very seductive and I think captures the after feel off umm ...very nicely.

    Wolf Moon 2004

    I can't believe I haven't reviewed this yet considering how much I love it. On my skin this is piney sweetness, with some aquatic tones. As it dries down it takes on a bit of a spice(maybe ginger?) but still stays piney. Very slightly floral, it stays pretty much in the background on me. I also get a slight musk from this. One of my favorite lunar blends by far.

    Megaera

    This is amazingly good!!!!! Very rich, plumy. Very citrusy at first but that faded very quickly on me leaving this beautifully complex scent. The bergamot is faint and the grapefruit adds a wonderful crisp juicyness to this, but the plums, orris, and amber really round this out and make it seethe. A bottle of this is most surely being ordered very very soon.

    Veil

    Lavender, violet and something juicy? Juicy? There is a fruity juciness to this, a little of the ylang-ylang, I can definately detect it here. But juicy? Don't get me wrong, I love the juicy scent but where did it come from? The lilac starts coming out after a few minutes. Maybe a little too floral for my preferences but I can definately appreciate it.

    Viola

    Viola started off very green and very rosey on me. As it starts to dry down I could smell a little of the mandarin and I think that must be lily that I am smelling. A little while longer I smell some of the lilac and this starts taking a slight powdery scent. The rosewood is very faint in here but I can smell it if I look for it. I start smelling the amber after about 10 minutes or so and this starts to warm up but is still very rosey. I can also smell some of the moss too. It is actually very pretty. After about 20 minutes the florals have faded down on me and the sandalwood and amber have surfaced more making this a bit more woodsy and resiny smelling with a layering of florals. Very pretty.

    Gypsy Queen

    This is another of the carnaval scents I will have to order multiple bottles of because it smells that good. When I put this on the incense is very strong, but there is also the spiceness of the carnation. As it faded I can smell the musk, and some of the rose and neroli, but the spicy incense feel is still there. I can absolutely invision siting in a gypsy's tent getting a reading. A darker scent with a definite smokey feel. Love it

    Blood Kiss

    In the bottle I smell vanilla, wine and cherries, mmm yummy Wet: The honey appears, but so does the vanilla and cherry. This smells wonderful. Drydown: I can smell the musk in this and the vetiver. I adore this blend. It lasted throughout the day on me, and smelled wonderful. A very creamy, honey, musky, cherry wine scent. The scent that emerges after an hour is seductive i couldn't stop sniffing my arm. I can definately smell the honey in this and it is so good with the musk. The cherry scent faded within an hour and wasn't very candy smelling. Edited to say I tried this again and the clove comes out much more strongly at first but calmed down after a few minutes. It gives it a nice spicy feel along with the creaminess.

    Saint-Germain

    At first I did not want to try this because of the lavender, but I was very pleasantly surprised. The presence of the carnations made the lavender more bearable for me as they added a sweet spiceness that blends very well with the lavender scent, plus the amber really makes a nice mark. I think this may be a bit too masculine for me though, I thik it would smell wonderful on a guy.

    Cathode

    When I first applied this it was very minty. It definately woke me up. After a couple of minutes the mint wasn't so in your face and settled down a little bit, but was still there. The spanish moss did come out a bit later but was hiding behind the mint.

    Juke Joint

    This started off very minty, but that quickly faded within a couple of minutes. What was left behind was a bourbon, powdery smell that I need to press my nose against to smell. What I could smell was pretty but I can barely smell it. Smokey scented aftre a while too. I might have to order this but I contemplate retouching throughout the day alot, and the initial mintiness might make me go haywire(I'm not a mint fan). I'll try this a few more times and decide.

    Aglaea

    Three golden ambers, bright musk, peach wine and myrtle. Peachy wine with amber and musk. A bottle of this is definately going into my next order because it is so beautiful. Fruity, golden, yet sexy. I am a sucker for anything that has musk in it, plus if you add amber yum!!! Not to mention the peachy wine smell. This lasted for hours too!! Dying!!

    Roadhouse

    Wet: Very green dandelion. Very crisp scent. Very very green. Drydown: The hops comes out and now I smell like a drunk dandelion. Final Result: after about 30 minutes the tobacco smokiness comes out but there is still the greenness from the dandelion. The hops scent did not last that long.

    Regan

    Vanilla with a bit of a floral to it. I smell something slightly smokey as this wears. It isn't an edible kind of vanilla but it is creamy. The floral comes out more too, but the vanilla stays as a creaminess underneath. Phenomenal.

    The Ghost

    Wet: This smells like a green apple on me with some florals. Very clean and juicy. Drydown: The florals come out more but I still smell like a fresh, crisp green apple. I really like this alot. Final Verdict: I'm not much of a floral person but this is really yummy. I love the crispness of it, along with the apple scent. It smells really clean and fresh, juicy and floral. I feel very springy

    Catherine

    Wet: why do I smell lemon? The lavender is also doing a good job in making its presence known. Also very green herbal. I must resist washing this off. Drydown: The lemony scent is going down and the rose is coming out. Now it smells like lemon roses. I think I'm starting to smell the rosemary a bit too. Final result: while this scent does calm down into something pretty, it is not something I can see myself wearing. The rose in this is very pretty though. The lemony scent does go away after a little while and this just smells like a herbal rose. Very light on me.

    Black Phoenix

    When wet on the skin: Very cherry and almond on me. Almost sticky sweet. Drydown: still very cherry/almond sweet but I think I smell a little spiciness to it now. After 10 minutes: there is more of a musky, spicy, sweetness to it. still definately smell the cherry and almond, but they aren't as strong.

    Seraphim

    At first the rose is very dominant, after a few minutes it calms down and I think I smell the lily or maybe that is the wisteria. Very floral, but not a heady floral. I don't smell the frankincense or sandalwood at all in this. It is sweet, it took about 10 minutes for the incense notes to surface, so very light and pretty. Still a little rosey too. I will definately use my imp.

    Dragon's Musk

    With the description saying five musks I was thinking this would smell heavier or darker, so I was very surprised. THis smells like dragon's blood, musk, and something juicy, fruity. This isn't super heavy, but it is amazing. There is a sweetness to it, definately sexpot material. Naughty yummy.

    Anne Bonny

    Very dark, woodsy and spicy. There wasn't much of a change between wet and drydown which is fine for me. I love the resiny scents and this definately resiny. I'm so glad I got an imp of this because I now have to order a bottle. The patchouli is definately the stronger note, and the frankincense also come out on my skin. I'm going to guess that there is musk in this because I smell musk, spicy and woodsy and musky...my kind of scent

    Motivation help needed!

    TAL has a concentration blend that really helps me focus and get things done, even when compleetely unmotivated. If you have access to TAL that might work. As far as essential oils go basil, cardamon, grapefruit and bergamot are commonly used to help concentrate. I would also use anything citrusy since that seems to wake me up and focus my attention.

    Hexennacht (2005, 2016)

    ... This perfume is the scent of the witches’ revel: German fir and forest herbs, incense and bonfire smoke, and the wet, glimmering scent of skin warmed by dance. I think this scent just skyrocketed to be one of my favorites. It is smokey, woodsy, juicy and is that some musk I smell. REminds me of camping and camp fires, being out in the woods, but there is something very ......yes.....underneath it. I am going to be hoarding this bottle because I am in love with this scent. It smells amazing on me and I want more!!!!!
