    Perversion

    This is one of my favorite catalog scents. I get a lot of leather from this, with a backdrop of vanilla-like sweetness. It's not bitter but it's not phlegm-inducing, and it's perfect when you're feeling a little wicked or just badass. Maybe it's the leather...

    Queen of Sheba

    This smells like the love-child of Snake Oil and Dana O'shee. I pick up almonds and "spice", but since I didn't like Snake Oil and Dana O'shee's on the fence for me, I didn't like this scent much, either.

    The Lady of Shalott

    The gardenia is giving me a huge, flower-induced headache, and that's all I really got from this scent. Shame, because I was hoping for more ginger.

    Snake Oil

    I don't really understand the popularity of this scent, but maybe I'm just not mature enough to fully appreciate it It's a little sweet but far too heavy for me, and anything that has "spices" in its description usually gets a blind eye turned to it.

    Hunger

    All I got from this was smoke. No other notes at all, no described notes, just smoke.

    O

    This, while not a caramel-sweet smell, was still too sweet for me. Straight sugar does not a balanced diet, nor scent, make for me. I'm sure many people like it, but for me, it doesn't do the trick.

    Vixen

    *sigh* Another patchouli blend that didn't work on me. I ended up smelling like an herbal medicine cabinet with some sugar dumped on it. Not sexy at all.

    Lolita

    I have to say, this is the perfect blend for lemon Froot-Loops That said, I must consign it to the swap pile, for I do not want to smell like breakfast cereal - unless if it's Cinnamon Toast Crunch

    Pride

    I smell... ROSE. and then... SHARP TOILET WATER. Florals are not my friend.

    Dirty

    I LOVED this scent - so perfectly light and floral, no sharpness, no soapiness... it breaks my heart that my skin ate it up straight away!

    Sin

    I'm surprised to see patchouli in this, as it wasn't that strong in it. I got more cinnamon, but overall, all of the notes sort of muddled together and I couldn't really discern one from the other. Heavy scents are not my thing, anyway.

    Hellfire

    This smelled like a smoky, bitter version of Perversion on me. I definitely got the leather, but it wasn't very balanced, and I would really rather have more Perversion =3

    Dorian

    Oh yum! Lemony tea, vanilla, with a hint of man's cologne (musk). I may be getting a headache from this, though, which breaks my heart! I'll have to try it a few more times to place judgement, though.

    Envy

    At first, I really liked this scent. It definitely reminded me of a fresh, dewy, shadowed grass field. However, as it dried it started to smell like... sunscreen? Ew...

    Rose Cross

    This was pure rose, though it had a sparking quality that I attribute to the frankencense. I like Kostnice better as a rose scent, though. I've recieved too many of this as frimps =x

    Fallen

    Perhaps it's the sandalwood or some other type of wood, but this smelled like a lighter version of patchouli on me, with nothing else. I don't get any florals at all.

    Seraphim

    I do not like sharp florals, and this was no exception. I recieved it as a frimp, and I would not have tried it otherwise. I have no experience with lilies, but if that was the floral that killed the scent, I'll know what to look out for next time.

    Gluttony

    Burnt sugar blends are definitely a no-no for me. This was too sickly sweet and gave me a headache whenever I turned to give it another sniff. I had hopes for this scent, as I love nuts (other than almond) and hoped that this would smell like toasty nuts... unfortunately, it smelled like a fire accident in a bakery. Not charred, but very, very sweet.

    Twilight

    Oof! I was hit with lavendar, which dried down to lavendar, and continued as lavendar until I washed it off at night. I personally do not like lavendar blends (though Luna is nice) and this one is no exception - sharp, sour toilet water is what I think of it, and it's a rare blend that can make me think otherwise.

    Nocturne

    I didn't like or hate this scent, as it wasn't too sharply floral nor did it dry down to soap on me. I would describe it as a "sad, melancholy" scent.

    Embalming Fluid

    I love this scent. I can smell a little of the watery aloe, and a lot of the tea and lemon. It's fresh, invigorating, and I'm beating myself up for letting this one go! Oh well, there's always random draw in frimps...

    Wings of Azrael

    Pine-y, juniper-y. It's fresh and clean smelling, but not one of my favorites. Now that I'm in a slight rut, though, I kind of wish I still had an imp of this around. Oh well!

    Arcana

    It's herby and slightly citrus-y from the verbena, which makes it a nice room scent but mostly unsuitable for everyday use. Not a bad scent per se, just not good as perfume.

    Masquerade

    Patchouli patchouli patchouli. If you like the P-word, get it - that's all it was on me. My skin loves to throw it off, but I personally hate the scent of it and would much rather have some tonka or citrus.
  25. Ayln

    Aeval

    A nice floral scent that's also a bit warm from the tonka. I don't get headaches from it, and it has a decent throw. I don't like or hate the scent, but I don't think I'll ever wear it. If I get it as a frimp again, I'll keep it around.
