For me, it's "Love Me"!
-
That scent description is up my boyfriend's alley, and his favorite scent is F5.
-
I just wore Liz to see HP 7.2 - I pretended it was probably how Hermione smelled after the battle of Hogwarts!
-
In the bottle and wet on my skin, it is a thing of beauty. But when it dries, I just am not a fan. Which is awful because my foodie-loving self is distraught at that! It just was not meant to be. I think it's the tobacco.

Dorian is my favorite vanilla-y scent, my second-favorite is Boo 2010, which smells like sugary vanilla on me.
-
Never mind, it was carnation. Derp.

I've purchased some 5 mls lately and am waiting for some wand caps (my weapon of choice for applying), but now I am stuck trying to figure out how to apply my lovely new bottle of Metal Rabbit! How do you apply your bottles without the aid of a wand cap? I feel like I'm missing something obvious!

Powdery, clean melon and fruity goodness. I can't stop huffing my wrist - unfortunately I put it on an hour ago and it seems to be already fading. Pity, because it would be an AMAZING summer scent.

A potent yogic oil that stimulates the kundalini, provokes spiritual awakening, and releases the energy seated in your root chakra.
Incense-y patchouli. Just a little too sharp for my nose, which is odd considering I love patchouli, typically. Alas. It's just a little too medicinal to be a good fit! -
I really want to love this smell, but unfortunately the kryptonite power of rose strikes again! Alas, it just didn't work with my skin chemistry.

What an amazing, lemony, vaguely cinnamony scent! Not only that, but it stuck to my skin all day long - not just for an hour or two. It only went away when I went swimming in chlorinated water - I am definitely putting this on a "want a bottle" list! Holy crap.
-
Minty, citrusy lime. Somehow it manages to smell carbonated (Beth you truly have a gift!), and I can't detect any chocolate at all. It's very light and I am loving the smell on my wrists. If this sticks longer than an hour or two, it's definitely going on my "want a bottle" list. It's delightfully wonderful!
-
It's herby and watery without being too heavy. A nice, light Summery perfume. I don't think I'd buy a bottle, but I'll definitely use up the imp.
-
I love this smell. It smells like ozone zapped by white light and pure energy, with a faint floral. Unfortunately, I adore ozone, but it does not adore me - this sticks to my skin better than most ozone-y smells, but it doesn't have any throw and it's already almost 99% faded an hour and a half into wearing it.
-
This is lovely - spicy jasmine with some sort of cinnamon-y twist to it that sticks around and makes its presence known. I loved Follow Me Boy and figured that a scent in this vein would be lovely, and oh my god it is! Bewitching brew indeed.
-
Very misty, floral and sweet. It's a white floral that turns very soft and I enjoy it a lot. It's stayed on for 3 or 4 hours and it doesn't have a lot of throw but does make me smell pretty good. I'm enjoying it.
-
Spicy patchouli and vetiver - two smells that agree with me well. I think I'm liking this one, but I need to see how long it sticks on me before I commit to wanting a 5 ml. I definitely love the smell though and it's going strong ~45 minutes in, so it might end up being a winner!
-
Pine and mint!? Two of my favorite smells - I don't know why I hadn't heard of it until now! I am in BPAL love - Pine amps on my skin very well without being too much, and the mint just adds enough to be interesting. When dry it smells almost vanilla - that must be the black musk? I want to put it on my boyfriend, but I want to wear it myself more! Mmmm, I want to roll up in this smell and go to sleep.
-
Sharp pine at first. On the drydown, it stays fairly piney, but with tinges of something else - no hazelnut notes that I can tell. I've been wearing it for 3 or 4 minutes and it's already fading - can tell my body just isn't a fan.
-
It's very different. It smells like my favorite word - "petrichor" - the smell after the rain. I enjoy the notion that this is the smell of a hurricane after it's ripped through and savaged an area. It seems to be fading so quickly on my skin, though - it's hard to smell it unless I am right up on my wrists and seems to be fading already, maybe 10 minutes after the first application. A shame, because otherwise I'd be buying a bottle - I do like it very much!
-
Ozone, soft flowers, and a hint of powder. What a lovely scent - I completely agree with the above poster who suggested it's the smell of a nice day being pushed out by a storm. It smells amazing, and is strong with a decent throw without being overpowering. If it stays this nice a couple of hours from now, I might just have to add it to my bottle wishlist. Mmmm - I want to roll my clean laundry in this smell and roll in it!
-
Very clean and fruity. I initially thought it was oranges, but turns out it's grapefruit - I usually hate grapefruit, but here it works somehow. And I am most definitely not complaining. On me it smells like sugary grapefruit with a tiny bite of apple and tea. I would love a bottle, but it just doesn't stick around on my skin.
-
I received this as a frimp and decided to give it a try today!
To me, it smells like rose, incense and a little sprinkling of baby powder, maybe also a daub of vanilla. It reminds me of a young couple having sex outside in the warm, summery sun. I'm loving it.
I'm not sure how long it will stay on my skin, but if it agrees with me, it's definitely going on my "want a bottle" list.
A Ginger ale scent?

I will have to try Gnome, too! I didn't know this!
