    Milk Moon 2007

    Milk Moon, May 2007 Bottle:It smells really good. I don't know what I smell..but I like it. Wet:Sharp and sweet,with a touch of flowers. Dry:Creamy-ness with a subtle sweet tartness from the grape and fig I think. This one is a lot different from the other scents I have, it's very interesting. I'm keeping it.

    Katharina

    Imp: I went to the spa this morning..and when I got back my imp was there. Yay! So I smelled it..and it smelled just like the drink they gave me after my massage. All sweet, and bubbly..and apricot. Wet: Sweet peaches? and flowers. Dry: The apricot toned the flowers down a bit. It smells lovely on me. Very girly but bright..and sort of relaxed. Love this one.

    Xiuhtecuhtli

    Bottle: I can smell the orange and a touch of incense. Wet on me: Still very orange. The florals are starting to peak out now. Dry on me: A sweet foral orange peel. There is a little bit of a bitter orange rind note.

    Hellcat

    Bottle: Very sweet, with an edge. Marzipan & honey ^^ Wet on me: Almondy honey. Dry on me: Even dry my hand smells like a sweet European confection. All almondy and sugar.

    The Hell-Gate Of Ireland

    The bottle: Hi, I'm clove..how are you? and something else. I can't point out what it is..but I like it. Wet: I still smell cloves, but there is a weird hint of talcum powder. I think it might be the smoke coming out. Dry: It’s interesting. Not quite my style.

    Nemesis

    Bottle: Fig. Strangler Fig without the green. yay! Wet: Here comes the green >.< Ack. Cypress. The fig, like me is hiding from the green-ness. Dry: sweet and green, with a hint of fig.

    Saw-Scaled Viper

    This is mostly a sniffie bottle. Bottle: kinda smells like gingerbread..or baking gingersnaps. It was a wand cap bottle, so I rolled the wand over my wrist. There was a little oil left. It smelled like the bottle at first and then my wrist took on this sweet vanilla gingery smell. Yummy. The original snake oil failed on my skin, but this stuff seems to get along pretty well with me.

    The Fruit of Paradise

    2009 In the bottle: Yummy.. I opened it and left it that way for a bit. All the sweetness is just drifting through the air. It smells fruity, with a dark edge. Wet on me: Christmas-ish. That must be the spice. Dry: As it's drying the spice is settling down and the red berry is coming back out. It'd be perfect for stomping around in the snow. Love it.

    Nostrum Remedium

    Imp: Ooh it makes my nose tingly Wet: I can't really pick the notes out..but I like Dray: It has this spicy-ness..and something I can't pin down and some sweetness. I get a hint of soft roses too..I'm not sure why. But it's very fun, I like it.

    Zephyr

    imp: Lemony sorbet Wet: Lemon peel, and something green Dry: Sweet Verbena..with a hint sunblock. Maybe I'll add this one to my sunblock..it'd smell awesome. ^^

    Eros

    imp: sweet..mm...I don't know what it is exactly, but I really want to drink it. I didn't though. Wet: Sweet but with a darker body to it. Dry: It got darker and fuller in body. It actually smells tangible. While I wouldn't slather myself in Eros..I'd enjoy slathering it on someone else. Eros describes the oil pretty well.

    Psyche

    Imp: Green and spicy, I think part of that is the frankincense. Wet: Still very herbal green. I amp green things.. eep. >.< Dry: Holy herbal. It's sharp.. like when my dad would mow the grass in the summer and it'd smell all green grassy outside for a while. No roses came out to play for me :/

    Hollywood Babylon

    Imp: Smells like black cherry candy and flowers. Wet on me: Sweet cherries, with spice. Cherry mulled wine. Yummy-ness. Dry on me: The vanilla came out as it dried, making it creamy. Then the flowers poked their heads out..and gobbled up all the fruits. Mean flowers. The phases the oil went through while drying were very interesting.

    Viola

    Imp: wet flowers, strong ones. Wet: Crazy rose, not 'rose red' rose though. Dry: As it dried the rose morphed into lilly. It's pretty, but a bit of a strong one me. Reminds me of when I used to buy my grandmother lillies..and I'd stick my nose in the whole vase of flowers to smell them. Rosewood and I normally don't get along,but I couldn't even tell it was there in this oil.

    Liz

    Bottle smells like: light vanilla leather..I like it. Wet: I think if you put a vanilla bean in a smoker, this is what the bean would smell like afterward. Dry: Sort of like the wet stage but with a hint of perfume-ness ..it has the faint flowery smell and the leather came back to play a little. Overall..I'd say I do like it, It reminds me of a 'going out and shooting pool with the boys' scent.

    Siren

    In the bottle: Pine trees...? really?? Wet: Sweet pine trees..raw ginger maybe. I could see that..not the candied sweet ginger though. Dry: Now the vanilla comes out, but it's not vanilla vanilla..its like sharp green vanilla? odd.

    Black Pearl

    In the Bottle: smells like coconut water with flowers floating around in it Wet: Coconut shampoo..the sweet smelling kind. Or the bubble bath maybe... Dry: Its a little 'heady' for me. The flowers came out really strong as it dried, with a sweet coconut musk smell in the background

    Rapture

    Bottle: Jasmine Wet: sharp green floral, Iris maybe? Dry: Hm..the citrus seems to be hiding, and the floral isn't going anywhere except for a gradual decline into baby powder flowers.

    Rose Red

    2007 Rose Red In bottle: Like leaning over to smell roses in the garden. Wet: Green, thorns..eek. The green went very sharp on me, overpowering the rose. Dry: Perfect. I love this stage, and it made surviving the attack of thorns and stems worth it. It dried to a very pretty and soft sweet rose scent. Not powdery/or grandmotherly at all.

    The Last Squished Jellybean

    Smelled like cinnamon in the bottle. Wet stage on me, smelled like one of those big cinnamon fireballs. As it dried it became this sweet woody cinnamon. Maybe that was the Anise coming out? I don't know, but it lasted a long time. I accidentally put it on instead of another before I went to work. After 8 hours in a kitchen I could still smell the squished jelly bean. I want a bottle. Nothing else has ever outlasted 8 hours in our kitchen.

    Shattered

    The imp smells like bubbly. Not the cheap kind, the good kind. As it dried the grapefruit note came out, while still keeping some of the sparkle from the champagne. Reminds me of the note in Baobhan sith, but a little sweeter.

    The Unicorn

    Wet on me: Sweet grass..and mint? The grassy smell stayed as it dried, then went to powder. Arm kind of smells like wet meadow baby powder..odd.

    Sea of Glass

    The floral is really sharp and clean on me, it almost reminds me of when I used to bring my grandmother oriental lilies. Smelling my arm is sort of like putting my face in a vase of those flowers. The flower smell stayed as it dried. Not a bad flower smell, I actually like the smell itself..just not on me.

    Persephone

    Sweet, juicy, and red. Tart at first, but it went away as the oil dried. The rose wasn’t floral at all on me, it was there..just more like the smell of sugared rose petals. It was subtle. It's a gorgeous scent. Very little throw on me.
