This is a perfect Dragon's Blood scent. The DB in this reminds me very much of Dragon's Reverie, for which I am eternally grateful.

Lovely. Starts out with a very lush blast of something, which dries down to gorgeous glorious violet.

Edit : Wow, this one is really a morpher. I can't even say the changes it goes through, but they are all gorgeous. Now after a month or so my dry down is an amazing powdery violet. I really may need a back up of this one.

Sometimes I am amping a very dusty note, not sure what that is.

I am so happy I pulled the trigger on this little monkey with my Luper order. Wow this is so amazing, and very powerful.
It goes through so many phases and is so long lasting, and every phase is so colorful and lovely. On my husband the wet was very citrusy, with seemingly the tangerine being right out front, and the dry down turned immediately into orchid!
I love this, still exploring it. At the very end I smell the pine resin.

I have to second Miss Spink. I also love The Other Miss Spink.

Yes Winning!!! Delicious lovely and good, reminds me in some places of Sweet Lavinia's Risalamade (sp?), Pepper and Scrappy Damsel.

Excellent, delicious, very wearable.

This is so beautiful...I want to make the whole world smell like this...

It's so fresh, but sweet at the same time. The cherry note is very sweet, and the flowers are so lush. It's perfect.

Beautiful, a perfect slightly dark snow scent. Can't wait to wear this in the hot weather!

Oh gosh this is just lovely, and very long lasting on me. Smells sweet, dark and plummy, not a whole lot of violet, I'm hoping that makes an appearance at some point. Lovely.

Well, when I got this I don't know if I was just not in the mood or what, but I didn't really wear it. Suddenly I am completely obsessed with it. It is super sweet but somehow not over the top cloying. The strawberry note is just gorgeous and I don't even care that I have to reapply it because I am so in love. Oh hello, this will be going in the scent locket, duh...the cure for poofy amazing perfumes...

I have Snow at Noon and found it different from Skadi, that's probably not so helpful, but it does have mint.

Hm. That's challenging as you don't dig the snow note, but immediately I thought of Braving the Ice. It's foody but very different from regular retail vanilla things.

 

Have you tried Gacela of the Dark Death? To me it's a resin heavy forrest kind of scent, very beautiful and cold. A definite pine note.

gosh I really love this. It's like the most perfect evocative patchouli, without being cheap or simple. Absolutely mouth watering and gorgeous.

I was just thinking today that I hope Perilous Parlor comes back.

I have The Vine, it's lovely

It's funny I never reviewed this, because out of the zillion or so gingerbread things I have, this one is the favorite. It's not so sweet to me, it's sort of a dry spicey thing. Fancy indeed.

Let me just say that La Befana was the Yule I was most excited about. I had a decant from last year but did not get a bottle, somehow I overlooked the decant, and it was so lovely.

I got my bottle ripped out of the package, applied and was ???? what the heck? Fortunately, I left it a few days waited, now ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, there's that heavenly violet thing...

This is so beautiful. I am obsessed, it's sweet violet candy.

Well, this may age into the dark apple thing that I thought it would be, but for now it's a beautiful high pitched appley thing, delicious and fresh. I want more of the patchouli/champaca thing which is mostly in the background for now. Unlike the above poster this one absolutely poufs on me, but it's AMAZING in a scent locket. It's absolutely mouth watering. The other day I went out to walk my dogs bundled in coat, scarves etc., and thought, wow what is that amazing scent? Is it on my scarf? The neighbors looking out the windows may have thought, oh there goes that nut again, she's always sniffing herself...

but I could not locate it on my clothes and then ding, it hit me, it's my scent locket with Apple III that is buried about four layers deep! I love this one. And to think apple used to be one of my "death notes". Thank you Beth for basically eliminating the need to ever type the words "death note " again

This one always smelled very medicinal to me wet, but today I tried a very ancient imp and wow the dry down was all beautiful honey and musk. I usually am a huge cinammon fan so I am glad I gave this one another shot. I may have to buy a bottle and age it!

The only thing that went very powdery on me was The Lion.

I probably have posted this before but Lady Death Savage is one of the most wonderful vanilla scents ever! It's womanly and sexy with that floral and ambergris backdrop.

That's one of my husband's favorites, for himself that is!

He however does tend to go for more "flowery " things than you would suspect. One night he wore Raven Moon to bed...it smelled just amazing on him.

I tend to go for more "manly" things so I guess we even out.

Lady Death smells gorgeous on him btw. It's a beautiful perfume.

Overall impressions : Winning...

 

yes. Marshmallow. Vanilla. Is good.

agreed, this is not a sharp wintery thing like The Shivering Boy, but a sweeter nice snowy thing. I get something fruity. I like this one a lot, I can surely see wearing it in the hot weather.

I know they are BTP, but how about the Pumpkins of the Apocalypse hair glosses?

 

Bow and Crown of Conquest is just awesome IMO,

The Rose is an amazing choice if you love Rose Red and Peacock Queen
