    Deux

    This is an "oh hell no" for me, which is unfortunate because both rose and spice usually go so well on me. It's probably the incense note causing all the havoc, as that's hit-or-miss with me. It smells nice in the imp, but it goes to old lady soap the second it touches my skin, and stays that way Specifically that carved-rose-ball old lady soap tho, so it's not the worst soap.

    Ultraviolet

    In the imp: clean, fruity, floral, bright on, wet: sharper, menthol-y twist, harsh drydown: sharp and minty, maybe even a little smokey? dry: violet, frostminty violet. 2 hours: a cool, faint, scent, almost gone. Time to reapply! I like it, but I need it to last a little longer.

    Laudanum

    Imp: Dark, Smoky spice wet: goes sour on my skin, definitely medicinal. Is the sassafrass the licoricey bit? Drydown: smoke returns, very clove cigs-y, i get that. very From Hell, I agree. strong. Dry: nope, don't like it. it wavered in and out of me territory, but settled into something i might try to wash off. Boo, I was hoping for the spicy rootbeer

    Aeval

    in the imp it smells light, bright and almost fruity! Fae indeed: it's lovely, but hard to pin down on, a little more planty, a soft wet plant musk, like a petal, but not that floral-y quality that i dislike so. drying down, where did it go? i catch hints and whiffs, but a moment later there it is again bright and happy and indefinably pleasant. I like it how i like my peach scents, but without it smelling like peach... This one hurts my head to try and think about! dry, it is pleasant. not herbal, not floral just nice and bright. Maybe it's the tonka? I know i like a lot of blends that its in... Verdict is I like it and i don't know why. 4/5

    Ravenous

    in the imp, dark and smoky with the sharp brightness of maybe a bitter orange? first on, the darkness drops away leaving a smoky scent with rich, almost sweet undertones. drying: strong dark smoke again, then dropping away again. very campfirey, would smell great on a man too. dry: o hai orange! glad to see you back. It definitely sweetens and brightens up the smoke, even seems somewhat floral, bordering on soapy at times I'd put this as a 4 of 5, but it's also not quite my style. I'll keep my imp though, maybe sneak it onto hubby (who loves patchouli).

    Gnome

    Definately! Smells like peppery ginger soda, perky, bright and mildly explosive I've been loving on my imp for a while; I am so very getting a bottle

    Pumpkin Masala Rooibos

    This is my first majorly foody scent, and I'm surprised at how much i like it! I came to the Pumpkin Masala Rooibos party for the ginger and peppercorns, but i'm staying for the sweet almond tea Dry on my skin, its definately not as spicy as it is when wet. Responses included 'tiramisu', 'pancakes', and 'oatmeal cookies'. Calm, inviting and delicious, much more fun to wear than i expected a foody scent to be!
