For an atmospheric spray, if you are interested, my bottle of Cathouse smelled like major magnolia. You may want to check it out!

Well, in the bottle and for the first 10 minutes or so on my skin, this smelled exactly as the notes listed, but all wrapped up in one of those cheap plastic pool donuts (maybe like a plastic pin flimingo would smell LOL). I was so sad UNTIL the drydown was complete, and it went straight to pink sugar. YUM!!!! It lasts for a good bit- maybe a few hours, but not much throw. Tho it is pink sugar, it is more of a mature smell, and less like shockingly sweet pink rock sugar. Very wearable, and I am so glad to own a bottle!

K, this one is reeeeally weird on me. I don't get the molasses, or the honey, or any of the other notes. To me, this smells exactly like the earl grey tea with bergamot I had this morning. In the bottle, I really get the creamy honey vanilla, but on my skin this turns into something completely different. The imp is definitely a keeper, as I do like it, and I can't wait to retest once it ages a bit to see if it smells like it should LOL ETA_- ok so an hour and a half later, the bergamot, citrus note has faded, and now it smells like a cup of tea with cream and sugar...so.....weird...but I LOVE it!!

I was hoping to get more orange and cherry lollipops, but.... in the bottle- pink bubblegum wet- pink bubblegum drydown- pink bubblegum still fresh with a dusting or cornstarch *sigh*
-
In the bottle- clove and vetiver wet- clove and vetiver. The deep vetiver almost takes a chocolatey note, but it's like someone spilled coco powder in the dirt. Alas, I do not get the cherry, or vanilla, or wine. This is earthy vetiver and sharp clove

I do like this scent. After application, it had a plasticy sugar note, much like plastic pink flamingo, but once that fades, it is actually really similar smelling. Plastic pink flamingo smelled like straight pink sugar, but this one smells like blue sugar with creamy marshmellow. Yum!

Does anyone know where I can find a review of past Banned in Boston? I have googled it, BPALed it, and I can't find it. i thought it has been offered before. Anyways, I ordered it, and I know this one may smell a little different but I would love to read reviews of past BiB Thanks!

I just got my botlte of this today, and totally forgotten I had ordered it LOL In the bottle- I smell all of the notes. A sharpness from the bitter dandelions rounded out by the honey, and a little tartness form the currants Wet- Same. It is a really pretty scent! Dry- This did not morph on me much. It just mellowed out a bit. A soft little floral that melds so well with the rich sweet honey, and the currants keep it fresh. Overall, I really like it. I may not wear it all that often, but it will definitely be brought out for warm weather. It is very fresh, and I have never smelled anything like it before!

In the imp- sharp, ripe, fresh pineapple sweetness, rich custard with creamy butter, and a little tartness from the currants Wet- Like a mild Cockaigne, with a touch of pineapple Dry- Same. The rich spices have calmed down some tho. It is like a pineapple upside down cake that has just cooled. A very foody scent, but still very wearable. I don't know if I will buy a bottle of this one, but I may collect a cpl imps!

This is one of my top 5 favourite scent for sure! In the bottle, it is sugar vanilla with the clean fresh scent of cotton On my skin, this doesn't morph a whole lot- it just warms up a little. Still a bright freshness from the cotton, but it just becomes.....warm and lovely. I don't know whether it is the cognac, tobacco, incense, or musk that does it. I suspect it is the tobacco and cognac. I DO NOT wear musk well, and thankfully this does not turn into pure musk like other scents with musk do. I don't care for musk AT ALL. This, however is amazing! It is a lovely warm weather scent. I suspect this will age veeeeery well!

I just got an imp of this fresh from the lab. In the bottle- yup, exactly as described! Bread and rich butter with tea and cream and sugar. YUM! drydown- strange, but almost a licorice smell. Licorice tea perhaps? Ick dry- odd. floral and herb soap I wish this one hadn't morphed so much. If it had smelled the same dry as it had in the imp, I would have bought enough to bathe in it LOL The scent is nice, but too soapy/floral on me. I am glad I got the imp, and will keep it to see if it ages well, but as of right now, I will not be buying a bottle of it. I hope it stays around long enough for me to purchase in a year if it ages well! I really want to love this one!

I recently got the '07 version Mmmmmmm!!! Sweet sugar plum, but with a soft floral undertone. Sweet, but sophisticated. This is the perfect warm winter scent for me!

Cockaigne......omg....cockaigne! To me, this sells like sugar and spice, and everything naughty Like snickerdoodles fresh from the oven, but you don't smell like a cookie. Vanilla and butter and sugar, with a warm note. Like cinnamon, REAL cinnamon, but not as sharp, but it makes me feel nice and warm like amber does. As soon as I get the rest of my imps and get a bulk order ready, THIS will be on the top of my list. One to wear now, and probably one to age too LOL
