This reminds me of antique lace. It is vanilla and amber that blend to a nice creamy scent. I get little sweet pea, but once dry there is a little sandlewood. I like this for a nice vanilla scent
-
In the imp this is all chocolate and nothing else. On my skin the cinnamon comes out and begins to warm up the chocolate so that it does smell like hot chocolate but there is a splash of coffee too. On drydown it is a sweet hot chocolatey coffee.
-
In the bottle this one is all lavender. Once on my skin there is the lavender of course but with snow covered fruit which helps calm down the herby lavender smell. Once dry the flowers and benzoin add a vanilla loral scent to the lavender and snowy fruit. This is a very pretty blend.

Invasion of the Flesh-Eating Reindeer from Uranus

In the bottle this smells like gingerbread. Good gingerbread but gingerbread none the less. Wet the rum and fruitcake come out and yum. On drydown the musk makes its first appearance and takes away mch of the foody scent to make it much more wearable. I like this alot. -
This is for the 2008 version. In the bottle it smells like butter and cinnamon. Wet on skin the cinnamon seems stronger, but the butter seems to really be vanilla. Dry it smells just like a sugar cookie dusted w/ cinnamon instead of sugar. Yum.

I was frimped this is in a sale package. It is champagne and roses. The champagne is a light fizzy champagne. The fizziness lasts for like 35 minutes, and then the roses come out. It smells like a red rose to me and an expensive one too. It really is champagne and roses.

I got this in my first imp pack because I have trouble sleeping. Not anymore and the vivid dream that come with it are interesting(to say the least) In the imp: lavender and something herby. I will assume it is rosemary since that seems to be the consensus. And that is usually all I get before I hit sleepy night night land. In the morning it does have a light floral smell though.

This is fantastic. Thanks for bringing it back Bet. I get snak oil but I can pick out the coconut and plum which makes it a deeper scent. It is smooth, and sweet with a touch of spice. There are extra bottles of this is in my future.
-
In the bottle it is a strong coffee with a hint of nutmeg. On my skin the creaminess of the eggnog comes out with the coffee still being around. Dry it is a nice spiced eggnog with coffee. It is exactly what it says it is. Thanks Beth for sharing your genius with the rest of us.

In the bottle this smells like coffee with just a hint of chocolate. Wet. coffee with a bit more cocolate and maybe a splash of rum. On drydown a cramy mocha latte. The cream note seems to last forever on me.

Goblin of Yuletide Past Atmosphere Spray
papermaker replied to Belladonnastrap's topic in Atmosphere
This is so good it gave me a sensory memory I'm pretty sure I never had. *is crazee tho* It smells like being a little kid and coming in from playing in the snow absolutely covered in it, and mom has just taken some sugar cookies out of the oven and sprinkled them with cinnamon sugar. -
In the bottle it is fizzy black current candy. Wet I get more of the pomegranate but it is still fizzy. A very purple scent. On Drydown the apple and pear come out to play and make this a very playful fruity scent.

I Fell in Love with a Floating Brain
papermaker replied to RaeiNarcissus's topic in Retail Exclusive Oils
I got my bottle of this yesterday, and after letting it settle decided it would be good to wear out. In the bottle the strawberry cake is what my nose senses first, and then something a little sharper. Wet it becomes cake w/ strawberry cream. On drydown it is a cream cake w/ strawberries but not the supersweet ones, I am assuming that is the grapefruit that is taming them. Overall a very happy experience. -
In the bottle: dry hershey's cocoa powder no amber no hazelnut. Cocoa powder. Wet i can smell just the edge of the amber. Once it is dry it is still a strong cocoa powder, but the amber gives it a little sweeter scent, so that now it smells more like dark chocolate.
-
In the bottle: pine and something slushy Wet:Pine wet ozone and something slightly sweet Dry: sweet girly perfume w/ a peak of pine. Something to pull out on those days wen feeling girly comes hard.
-
In the bottle all I could smell was rum. On application it is pineapple and rum with the tiniest hint of vanilla. On drydown it is a perfect umbrella drink. This will be perfect to wear all summer long. Now to track down the rest of the Tiki bar scents.
-
In the bottle I smell patchouli. Wet on Skin: Hello Raspberry. On Drydown: Raspberry and Pomegranate(yay) w/ a hint of woodiness. 6 hours later: a slightly fruity incensey smell. My stream of consciousness on this scent went Oh No.... MMM yummy... ok I like it.... hmmmm really? So in short I will have to test again.

Irrelevant and Disturbing Surreal Crawdad Dream
papermaker replied to filigree_shadow's topic in Limited Editions
In the bottle all I can smell is fruit. Yum. Wet on Skin the tea and vanilla come out. On drydown I get a lot of a soft blueberry with vanilla and a hint of musk. This is a great blend a must for when I am in a fruity mood. -
E Pluribus Unum means out of many one, but out of the many I couldn't pick out one single note because this is so well blended. It is not OMG flowers b ut a nice subtle blend. I will be reaching for this fairly often.
-
Peppermint, sugar, and vanilla. It's great but rather than remind me of a regualr candy cane it reminds me of the peppermint nougat candies with the Chistmas tree in the middle. It is creamier than a candy cane (to my nose at least).
-
In the bottle: citrus and woods. On the skin: less citrus more floral On drydown: resins, musk with a hint of citrus. It is light and pretty. Like its name says it seems to be for somber occasions.
-
This is amazing. Smells just like buttermilk pancakes. I get little of the syrup, but i can tell there is some base of sweetness in there. Now to go find the pancakes this makes me want
-
In the bottle this is super sweet smelling sugar withe strawberries. On application: there are the strawberries and sugar. On drydown: much the same. Everything blends together perfectly to make a pile of candy with a hint of extra strawberry candy on top of it. Yum.

I wore this for the first time today. It is much sweeter than I expected but in a good way. It reminds me of a favorite perfume that lingers on sheets that have been washed. It lasted all day, and had really good throw. Probably a bottle purchase for me.
