    Queen Alice

    In the vial - A weird spicy floral. On the skin - Still weird and spicy - obvious carnation note, and a hint of oddly plastic cider. Has quite a throw, though. Dry - Soapy. :|

    Huesos De Santo

    In the vial - A little like butter rum, but with more spice. On the skin - Honey cakes! I can smell the orange glaze, and the buttery sweet scent of cake! YUM. Dry - Soft vanilla honey cake. Still yum~ Definitely a bottle for me!

    All Souls

    In the vial - A sharp, spicy almost aftershave. On the skin - Incense and sharp currant sugar. Dry - Smells like Nag Champa incense.

    The Infernal Lover

    In the vial - Sweet, soft, musk with a juicy undercurrent. On the skin - Sweet and soft, with just a hint of musk under the honey. Dry - Honey musk. I have had TERRIBLE luck with red musks. Most of them smell gross after the initial application, but Infernal Lover is a gorgeous scent that goes honey and fruity with just and undercurrent of musk that's completely bearable AND doesn't go gross on my skin.

    Blue Pumpkin Floss

    In the vial - Pumpkin, with just a touch of sweet blackberry and a bunch of spices. On the skin - Spicy pumpkin. Dry - Creamy spices. I really love this scent, but I don't get that much blackberry past the beginning. My skin might be sucking that part up...But what I do get is a fantastic spiced pumpkin sugar. Yummy!

    Boo

    In the vial - Creamy soft and sweet. On the skin - Creamy vanilla yumminess. Dry - A deep creamy lingering vanilla. I actually snagged some of this for my SO, who is always using vanilla & creamy scents. But I may have to keep this one for myself, I like it that much.

    Sugar Skull

    In the vial - A blast of sharp sugar and fruit. On the skin - The sharp sugar mellows a bit, allowing the fruit to come forward. Dry - Light fruit and sugar. I have a terrible time with sugars, but this has just enough fruit in it to make me consider an actual decant now that I've been able to test it. Hm.

    October

    October 2010 In the vial - Sharp, green pines. On the skin - A blast of sap. Dry - Smoky sap, which smells a lot like men's cologne. This is way too green for me. I was hoping for a lot more smoke, and a lot more dry, and got neither one.

    Ravenous

    In the vial - Citrus & a musky spice. On the skin - Woody oranges! Dry - More of the same, but more spice, less orange.

    Fae

    In the vial - Sweet & fruity. On the skin - Bright and sweet! Definitely bergamot, and maybe a bit of peach. Yum. Dry - Smells a bit like blueberries, actually. Bergamot deepened by musk.

    Juke Joint

    In the vial - Soft mint. On the skin - Soft sugary mint, followed by a whiff of booze. Dry - Powdery minty booze. Weird. But I liked it so much wet!

    Moscow

    In the vial - Cold florals, I can definitely smell rose in the mix. On the skin - Jasmine. And there are some other faint florals in the mix. But… Dry - Powdery, fruity, weirdness.

    Glasgow

    In the vial - Blackberries w/rustling grass & herbs. On the skin - Sweet & tart blackberries. :3 Dry - Fades quick.

    Frumious Bandersnatch

    In the vial - Spice, sugar, light juicy flowers. On the skin - Juicy spicy floral. Dry - Fades after a couple of hours, though. : (

    Hell's Belle

    Sweet, smoky and sensually wicked. A thick, steamy scent, truly sinister in its voluptuous sexuality. The perfume of a demon's favored consort, or of the devil herself. Oleander with wet, sweet mandarin, lush magnolia, a rush of deep musk and a touch of spice. I thought I had a full review with this one, but I don't. It boils down to this: Just, no. Turns to funky musk on my skin. Musk obviously does not like me, so I need to learn to stop playing with it. But I keep thinking that maybe a different musk will work...

    Umbra

    In the vial - Strong patchouli, with a hint of cedar & cinnamon. On the skin - Very very faint cedarwood. For a moment, I thought my skin absorbed all the scent. Dry - Dry cedar wood. The scent is actually stronger now that it's DRY, than when it was wet. Weird.

    Egg Moon

    In the vial - Sharp sweet cinnamon. On the skin - Cinnamon, with a side-order of frankincense. Dry - Something comes along and mellows out the cinnamon just a tad. TASTY.

    Snake Oil

    In the vial - Spicy! On the skin - Vanilla & spices. Dry - Sharp, slightly astringent, with a faint musk background. So, I don't get a heckuva lot of vanilla from this, but I quite like it. Not bottle-worthy, but imp-worthy.

    Dragon's Milk

    In the vial - Smells kinda like cherries and vanilla! On the skin - Sweet, slightly tart, a bit musky with vanilla. Dry - A sweet vanilla. Quite nice. This definitely has a cherries & vanilla vibe, which I quite like, but didn't expect.

    Joyful Moon

    In the vial - Musky vanilla & light floral. On the skin - Musk takes over, vanilla & floral are non-existent...And I do NOT like that musk. I would've washed it off, but I was in a hurry and just applied something over it. :X

    White Rabbit

    In the vial - Linen & milk?? On the skin - Tea, milk, detergent. But smells musky, in a way I associate with tobacco. Dry - Weirdly milk & …pepper??? Pepper BAD. D:

    All In The Golden Afternoon

    In the vial - Pineapple! On the skin - A smooth, deep pineapple scent. Or, pineapple with tobacco. There’s a hint of other fruit here, but they’re indistinct. Dry - Pineapple tobacco. Yum.

    Séance

    In the vial - Roses with sharp greenness and a murky undertone. On the skin - Sharp green thorns. Dry - Fades to a still-green red rose. And very rapidly, too. At the very end, there’s a woody scent.

    Bengal

    In the vial - Cinnamon. On the skin - Woody cinnamon, smooth honey, a hint of something else, here and there. Dry - Sharp cinnamon, pungent.
