    DO NOT JUDGE THIS SCENT BY ITS SMELL IN THE VIAL! PUT IT ON YOUR SKIN FIRST! I almost threw this away because I hated the scent I got from sniffing the vial. It smelled like expired cologne. But for some wonderful reason I decided to try it on my flesh and it was immediately phenomenal. Very earthy, as previously noted. I'm not familiar with most of the components of this scent so I can't name what I'm experiencing. However, I'll assume the fruitiness I smell is fig, even if it has berry-like qualities to it. It's very complex. I notice something different every time I sniff my flesh. Sometimes I notice the fig, sometimes the smell of leaves and woodsy herbs. And clean, fresh, rich earth. It is absolutely nothing like it smells in the vial. It is 180 degrees different. I'm definitely going to get a bottle of this.

    The Queen of Hearts

    In the bottle: Almond extract! That's what I smelled. A little bit of the cherry, but mostly almond extract was my first impression. On my wrist: Very floral and cologne-like, the cherry was gone. So was the almond. After a while: I can smell the lilies and this powdery baby type scent. Overall impressions: Now very powdery, adult, too adult for me I'm afraid. Regal enough for the Queen of hearts I suppose.

    Morocco

    In the bottle this smells to me like incense or a bohemian clothing shop. At first application it smells like muslin and musk. After it dries all I can smell is the musk and I don't like it. Several hours later it mellows a bit but is still too musky for me and smells like white freshmint tic-tacs. Overall, this scent is not for me, but some of you who like musks which are very apparent but not too overwhelming, will probably enjoy it.

    Vice

    In the bottle Vice smells to me like Jolly Ranchers, anise, candy, and oddly windex. At first application it immediately loses the "Windex" smell and instead is very lemony and sweet. After a couple of hours it still smells like candy but a slightly floral scent comes through. Also, I'm finally starting to get the chocolat escent. Very faint but somehow still pervasive. Overall, I really, really like this scent and am considering getting a 10ml amount. Addendum: My boyfriend loved it. It made him nostalgic, reminded him of a candy from his childhood.
