Rome
in Wanderlust
This smells like a combination between real, fresh cut dewey roses and cheap knock-off rose perfume.
The fresh rose smell fade as soon as Rome toches my skin and the fake rose become sickly overpowering.
Another floral I can't wear.

Snake Charmer
This is such a sexy scent. I love the vanilla note, it's not foody at all like some vanilla blends. It's spicey, sensual and seductive.
My boyfriend got a hardon after smelling my wrist... "snake" charmer indeed
-
Cherries and cedar. Simple and clean.
Very outdoorsy scent. I honestly can't decide if I like it or not. Deffiantely not getting a big bottle...
-
Shroud is lovely. Deffinately something
I would have never tried on my own.
Sandalwood notes and I don't mix usually, but this is a crisp, clean, white sandalwood incense and something floral... maybe lillies.
-
Tintagel is the feminine version of Hamadryad on my skin.
The sweetness of the dragon's blood is delightful. There is a hint of greeness underneath but mostly sharp sweet cinnamon notes.
Very lovely scent.
-
Neo-Tokyo is delightful.
It's such a playful, light and clean scent. Perfect for spingtime.
I get huge notes of cherry blossom and citrus (maybe kumquat?). It's a really delicate floral that made me (a devout floral hater) give Neo-Tokyo a chance.
Very pretty and ultra-feminine.

Moscow
in Wanderlust
On my quest for a floral that doesn't go all wonky on me, I gave Moscow a shot.
Immediately the jasmine jumped out at me... it's overpowering. I decided to give the scent a chance to mellow more, hoping that like the other reviews before me, Moscow would become more complex...
Sadly, in the end all I could detect was jasmine and a hint of rose notes. Very pretty, but just not for me.

Intrigue was sharp cedar shavings and hot cocoa mix on my skin.
Not quite cocoa, there is a hint of something sweeter mixed in, but the cedar is overpowering even in the bottle.
30 min it's still woodsy, but the cocoa mix note is gone. It's a comforting blend, but oddly unsettleing at the same time.
-
Yikes... floral to the max.
Roses and lillies mostly. I've been searching for a floral that agrees with me, and House of Night starts out as a very pretty floral on my skin but there is a note of something gross underneath.
After 15 minutes, it hits me... it's flowers and CAT PEE. *eww*
Had to wash this one off.

Hamadryad is pure cinnamon and pine sap on me.
It reminds my of x-mas and I really like it. It's a very soothing, comforting scent. The pine note keeps the cinnamon from becoming too "foody" on my skin.
Hamadryad has incredible staying power too! The pine note diminishes after 30 min or so, but the cinnamon keeps on kicking.
Very nice.

Fall under the spell of our Green Fairy! An intoxicating blend containing wormwood essence, light mints, cardamom, anise, hyssop, and the barest hint of lemon.
Minty and fresh in the bottle with a hint of sweetness.
I was worried it would be all mint and I would smell like wintergreen all day, but it quickyl dries down to a much more sophisticated blend.
After 30 min. all that was left were notes of anise and cardamom with a touch of lemon zest.
Very nice -
I like the lion.
Spicey ginger and amber combined into a unique and warm scent.
Dries down to almost a pure amber note on my skin, but still very lovely.
Going to have to get a big bottle of this one.
-
Soft floral with a hint of violet. This is really pretty, but I'm not a floral person.
Dries down to a violet note with a bit of chamomille.
Sadly the scent was gone after 30 min or so
-
I found a fruity floral I can tolerate... in fact, I love this scent.
I can pick out notes of figs, pomegranates, pears, plums and sweet grapes.
But there are also flowers too, plumeria and rose. Normally I can't stand rose, but the rose is very gentle in this scent.
-
Non compos mentis, indeed! A contrary, conflicted scent, bubbling with merry madness. Contains apple, rose, and lemon.
Lemons and apples! Whoa... odd combination.
Very pretty scent, but nothing I can see my self EVER desiring to wear. Fruit notes and I don't blend well together.
This one is going in the swap pile. -
Velvet is absolutely decadent!
In the vial, the richness of the cocoa is almost overpowering; but there is hint of something spicey underneath.
On my skin the sandalwood and vanilla notes come out and mix perfectly. Such a warm and comforting scent.
After 30 min, the scent is purely sandalwood and myrrh with an underlying sweetness.
Deffinately a keeper.
-
Very nice... honey and ylang ylang.
The warmth of the honey note is so perfectly blended with the ylang ylang. As it dries, the spicey clove comes out. This is really delightful.
Hetairae has some staying power too, I could smell the little dab I tested all day. Deffinately a keeper.

Venice
in Wanderlust
In the vial it smells SO good. Crisp lemon and sweet floral.
As soon as it dried, the lemon was gone and the jasmine took over, overpowering the hint of rose.
Ugh Jasmine is not a good note for me
-
-
Cherry cough drops! The synthetic cherry is overpowering and it doesn't fade the way most fruit notes do on my skin.
There is a hint on anise, but nothing else. Sadly this one if off to the swap pile
-
Oh Dorian- I love this scent. A 10 ml bottle is on my x-mas list.
Vanilla, sweet tea and musk. It's so simple and clean. Suprisingly it lasts FOREVER on my skin before fading to a nice vanilla note.
I wear this one on a daily basis, it's one of the first things I put on when getting dressed in the morning.
-
Just like everyone above- BUBBLE GUM- Wow. This smells delicious. I'm not sure this is something I would want to wear... I'll be craving a big cherry blow-pop all day!
Jailbait didn't last long at all... could barely smell it after 30-45 minutes

This scent is very herbal and peppery SHARP.
In the vial it's almost unpleasant. Musky and old smelling.
I was hoping for some more light florals, but sadle they didn't come.
