This is a fairly sweet peach scent.I love the sound of all of the notes,but I don't get anything except the peach.It goes on peach and stays that way.Nice,but not very intersesting.
-
Akuma is very sweet,but when first applied there is a sharpness,I assume it's the neroli.This dries down very quickly leaving very sweet raspberry and I just get the orange.I kept thinking it reminded me of soap somehow.After reading a few other reviews that mention a bathroom cleaner smell I have to say I agree.I think I'll spray the rest of this imp in the bathroom! I must say that after awhile the bathroom cleaner smell goes away and Akuma is very nice and raspberry sweet.It is also very faint and disappears rather quickly.

Initially the carnation and bergamot are in the forefront,very warm and spicy.The rose never seems to pop out,it may be there,but I can't identify it.After drying the sweetness of the milk and honey help mellow this into a very nice and Victorian perfume.I would say it's definitely feminine,but I don't get a little girl feel from this.

Aureus smells like the red sandalwood in Anne Bonny.I do not like this at all.
-
Antique lace is sweet,warm and creamy.Yummy,but not in a foody way.I am horrible at picking out notes,but after reading other reviews I must agree that there is vanilla in there.The vanilla happily comingles with all the other notes and together they have formed a beautiful perfume.The throw is good and it lasts a respectable amount of time.I love it!
-
This is a very beautiful soft yet sweet scent.Definitely floral.It is colorless.I generally despise woods,yet some of my favorites have what are described as dry or dusty woods,whatever they may be.It also disappears rather quickly.
-
The only note that jumps out at me is the lavender.In the end all of the notes combine perfectly into a really nice,old fashioned herbally blend.It lasts quite awhile,but isn't overwhelming in it's intensity.I can't say I love it though it is completely inoffensive.A very safe scent and gender neutral too!
-
This is a strong and deep scent.I don't like the sandalwood and that is all I smell.After several hours it dries down to a warm and slightly sweet smelling haze of incense,kind of nice,but I can't handle the initial sharpness.It is everlasting,I could still smell it faintly the next morning.
-
After first applying this it is rather sweet,but warms up after a bit.I never could ID the sage,I get mostly sweetpea. It actually lasts quite awhile.I kept wondering all day why I kept smelling soap,it was Aeval.My DH kept smelling me,he liked it.I didn't dislike it,but it smells like soap!So if I want to smell sweet and clean I know what to wear.

I tested a frimp from the lab. Wet from the vial-Lemon!Like in lemon scented cleaners.This dissipated after 15 minutes or so and the anise was very prominent and a faint underlying herbal smell accompanied it. I then turned the rest of the vial into a spritz.This would make a great linen spray or a refreshing spray on cologne for summer. I don't think you could apply to much of it. This is a very nice scent,nothing overwhelming nor very exciting.I don't think I will purchase a bottle,but will enjoy any frimps that come my way.

Without even reviewing the components,should they sway my perception,I will try to describe this.It is a very wet,dark,swampy aquatic scent.It is a little sweet at first,but dries down more earthy and woodsy.It keeps a certain sharpness all the while,something green and moist. This is very gender neutral.
-
Wow!There are many varied responses to Sundew here.I only see a few that are close to my own.Sundew,like it's namesake is a liquid,sweet and sticky scent.It also has a spicy note that becomes more prevalent with time.I have no idea what it is,possibly carnation as someone has suggested. Anyway,I love it.It reminds me of Maiden only because of the spicy floral aspect.

I love all of the notes in O.Put them all together and somehow they are sickly sweet!I don't like this at all and I'm really sad about that.Once applied,it lasts a long,long time.I tested it early evening and it was still around the next morning!Why can't someting I adore last that long?

I love rose.It is one of my favorite scents.I also love everything medieval,so i was really excited about this one.It definitely smells of roses,but the resins balance it out very nicely.This is perfect when I don't want to smell so obviously of roses.It is soft and subtle,but not neccesarily light.I love it!

When i first opened elegba,I thought i smelled chocolate.I assume it was the coconut and sugared rum combo that initially fooled me. The coconut is prominent at first,but it dries down to a soft,warm,spicy smell.The coconut seemed to check back in every now and then.If you like really sweet foody scents,this will appeal to you at first,but it definately dries down to a more soft and spicy scent.I will leave the rest for my DH. This is kind of like being on a tropical island without the suntan lotion overload.I really liked it,but there are many more scents that I prefer,as i found the drydown phase to be a bit masculine for me.Can't wait to smell it on my guy!
