  1. Just like the popping, fizzing candies I used to love as a kid. Cherry-flavoured and creamy... this is beautiful. Reminds me of unwrapping My Little Pony packages as a child and being lost in the innocence and magic of it all. A totally nostalgic and pure scent. I need several back-ups of this.


  2. Testing from a bottle aged one year, approx.

     

    In the bottle - creamy cherry coke.

     

    Wet on the skin - spiced cherries, sweetly musky....

     

    Drydown - deeper, darker, the cherries have lost their punch and the spice is dominant.

     

    Very delicious. I need to wear this more often.


  3. 2009 version :

     

    Mostly the dry leaves, florals and smoky incense on me. I was hoping for a peek of the candies or chocolate, but actually... this is pretty beautiful anyway. I'm certainly huffing my wrist a lot. I think this might have to go on my hairbrush tomorrow :)


  4. I wish the cherry note lasted longer because if it did, it would definitely be bottle-worthy. It fades almost instantly on me and is replaced by dry, almost dusty woods. Well, pencil sharpenings, to be blunt. I'd have to keep re-applying for that gorgeous, juicy cherry. Shame :/


  5. Herbal, minted roses. The rose takes a backseat but is still definitely there. The mint isn't INYOURFACEMINT! it's more subtle and refreshing. I bet this stuff is excellent for concentration too, I can see me using it before needing to work on something important and when writing. Very nice and I will be upgrading to a 5ml on my next order.

     

    Here, kitty kitty!


  6. I'm not sure what goes into #20 Love Oil, but whatever it is I cannot get along with it AT ALL.

     

    I first tried it last year and disliked it right from the off. I let it sit and then tried it again today - ouch, still hate it. I'm not sure what note it is in particular that I can't stand, but it makes me feel so nauseous I daren't go for the skin-test.

     

    Definitely not one I'll be using again :/


  7. My imp is about a year old and I finally got round to giving it a proper try today. I love the colour of the oil first of all; a wonderful jewel-red that makes me think of strawberry cordial. I'm not getting much cinnamon when I apply, but I expect that because this is aged and the spice has probably levelled out by now. There's a lovely, comfy-cosy feel to it as the oil dries on the back of my hand. I get something like... marzipan? It's soothing and sweet.

     

    I'll be getting a 5ml of this on my next order. Haven't tried it on the husband yet, but I will be ^__^


  8. Has No Hanna is all pink/white florals and delicate rose on me. It helps me feel calm and centred when I apply it directly to my main chakra points. It doesn't uplift me anywhere near as much as Aunt Caroline's Joy Mojo does, but it definitely aids me in finding some inner peace. I feel very... rested... when I wear this. I also like to annoint candles with it sometimes for meditative purposes. A lovely blend.


  9. This and Lolita will be competing for 'Best Lemon Scent' in my scent wardrobe now. I love me some lemon perfume. There's something so uplifting about it, every time I wear it I can't help but smile :)

     

    Lemon Scented Sticky Bat smells like a glass of homemade lemonade. Whoever mentioned the 'iced' note is dead-on in my opinion. There is definitely an undertone of something cooling in there. Gorgeous.


  10. This is moreish. First word that comes to mind when I huff at the delicately fragranced portion of my arm that Luna has settled upon. I think I may love this as much as I love Rosy Maple - and I LOVE Rosy Maple. It is a very 'green' scent but it's so candyish and sugared and mouth-wateringly fresh. I am so pleased I went for a full 5ml of this one. I did get to smell it some time ago and though I remembered it with positivity, getting it on my skin and wearing it has proven the scent to be more amazing than I originally thought. Green, soft, zingy, moreish. I need more Luna!!


  11. Gorgeous, comforting, spicy coca-cola.

     

    This is everything I wanted it to to be and more. It has fantastic staying power (put some on before bed last night and I can still smell it today!) and the throw is great too. It's not an overwhelming throw on me; instead it's warm and coaxing. I bet this will smell great on my husband too but I haven't thought to try it on him yet. Top marks for this one <3


  12. I wasn't sure that there could be a better candied-apple scent than Creepy. I adore Creepy and hoard it. Now I want to hoard Sugar Slathered Candied Apple!

     

    It's everything that Creepy is but amped up in my estimation. The caramel is deeper and the apple is crisper and singing a higher note. It is absolutely delicious. I hope this gets resurrected at some point because everyone who likes this sort of scent should have the chance to try it. Lovely, top marks.


  13. I'm getting everything I should with this one; the absinthe and mint blend seamlessly and are deliciously fresh, the bourbon vanilla is rich and present with the white chocolate and the lemon meringue adds an extra dose of sugar. Very tasty. More please!


  14. I've wanted to try this one for absolutely ages, based only on the description too. I got my bottle today and OMGYUM it does not disappoint. I love anything and everything flavoured with or scented by marshmallow, I should state that first of all. If you don't like candyish scents then steer clear of this baby. It's soft, pink, smooshy, sugary, sweet and fluffy. I can't smell the sap or green notes, it's all marshmallow all the time on me.

     

    Wet, it seems more subtle on me. After the drydown it blooms and the sweetness really comes out. I need an endless supply of this! ^__^
