    Cancer 2007

    In the bottle: grassy, almost kelpy then a little sweet and marshmallowly on the back end. On skin wet: Very similar to in the bottle, but there a more pronounced carmel scent. On Skin Dry: With the exception of the first time I tried it, my skin eat this very quickly (like in an hour). Before it does there is a nice creamy floral with the sweat pea prominent.

    Thunder Moon

    In the Bottle: Clean, kinda soapy (like Zest). I think this is the Ozone (this is my first ozone scent). On skin wet: Still that strong ozone/soapy scent. Emerging is something like wet lillies. On skin dry: About 1 - 2 hours later - softer floral, rain washed garden thing. I probably won't wear this on much as it take a while for the Ozone to "burn" off.

    Djinn

    Like "church" incense - frankencense, I think. Not bad, this is kinda what I thought Anathema would smell like but didn't. The boy doesn't care for it on me, or so he says. I think he just wants it for himself.

    Satan And Death With Sin Intervening

    In Vial: Not much scent coming out of the vial, but what I do get is "green" florals (the tea, I think) and a little something sweet. Tried warming it in my hands and trying again -- still not much. On Skin, Wet: Not much throw. Faint woods and incense smell that is a little sweet On Skin, Dry: Throw improves as it warms on my skin. The scent really clings to my skin. Nice...Vetiver appear and later a bit of vanilla. Quite pleased with it.

    Why do scents turn to baby powder on me?!

    Most have already mentioned many of my recommendations. Here's a few that I didn't see. White Rabbit Regan (this is more of a floral vanilla, you may or may not like it) MonsterBait: Closet I had a similar problem with 'O', but haven't tried the others on your list "like nots." Good Luck.
