No mistaking this, this is all green tea and lemon for me. I adore Embalming Fluid! This is so crisp and refreshing. This is a scent to wear on the hottest summer day. Lovely cooling smell!

This is all boozy peach in the imp. This will make you drunk just sniffing it! On my skin, it is totally different. Once this hits my skin, it becomes floral and warm and light. The peachy booze is mostly hidden but it is still there. After an hour this fades to nothing. Not a hint of this on my skin at all. *sigh* It smelled nice while it lasted.

Very cold and green. I can't make out anything else in this. I do know I really love this scent though. All sorts of lovely on my skin.

Roses but with a white flower to keep it from being heavy and cloying. The lilac doesn't show up until the drydown but when it does, wonderful! Another floral winner for me.

Sweet and spicy but very light. I'd say the sweetness is almost orange but not a bitter orange. Maybe mandarin? This is blended so well that I can't pick out one single note. Overall this is very much like a bright, spicy incense. Very refreshing!

Darkly floral with just the tiniest bit of sweetness from the currant. The sandalwood helps keep this from being too floral on my skin. No cardamom unfortunately. I can't say enough how much I love Beth's florals. I've always avoided them in the past, leaning more towards earthy scents but the Lab florals are so lovely and rich and real.

This is total musk! Dark and animal musky. This is oh so sexy. I am getting some cinnamon as this dries down but it is still that animal musk overall. Damn, this is sexy!!!

Totally tropical punch drink at first. There is something darker underneath though. I think it is the amber and myrrh. No sandalwood yet. This is really at odds with what I like and dislike. I hate tropical punch drink with a passion but whatever is coming out in this scent along with that tropical punch drink, I am loving it. This grabs hold of my and won't let go. This is lovely!

If I don't think about what I am smelling in this, my first thought is that Lear smells like freshly mown grass on a hot summer day. When I sniff longer, I can make out the cedar and sage. The bay leaf does show up but it is very faint. This comes off as a total peace scent for me. The more I smell this, the more I want a large bottle. I love the way Lear makes me feel.

Amazing! This is all white flowers with just enough greenness to not be over the top. This smells like a spring rain, all clean and crisp and refreshing. Asphodel is such a beautiful scent.

This is the first time I have really noticed the plum and not had it be too sweet. This plum pairs nicely with the gardenia and lily. Not too sweet, not too flowery. This is mature youth. Blood Countess gets more heady the longer it is on my skin. There is a bit of spiciness and smokiness now that is the saving grace for me. This is a fruity floral I could wear!

Sweet pine in the bottle. It gets more floral on my skin. I love the lilies but I am not getting the crocus. This is a wonderful floral on my skin. Not too girly at all. The pine is still around and there is still the sweetness. I think both are saving this from being to powdery on me. This would make an amazing linen spray. I'd love to fall asleep with this on my sheets. (I just saw I'm not the only person who had the same thought!)

I am smelling the myrrh right off and something else I can't place. It may be the mandrake combined with the currant because it isn't quite sweet and tangy and not nearly as woody and dirty. Whatever it is, I am totally loving this. I don't get the pickle scent at all that I've read in the reviews. This is heady stuff!!

This almost smells like lemon Pledge in the bottle. But on my skin it is more herbal and the jasmine comes out stronger. This is a very refreshing scent and reminds me of sour lemon candies. I love the smell but this isn't something I would wear. It is a total winner for burning over a tealight though!

In the bottle this is all sandalwood, musks and lemon peel. A surprisingly nice combination so far! On my skin the musk comes out first, followed by the sandalwood to make this a headier oil. No lemon peel now. The sage is so very subtle but a lovely addition. The jasmin shows up last to make this a more ladylike scent. And oh! There's the lemon peel! I can't believe how much I am loving Ave Maria Gratia Plena. Another large bottle to add to my wishlist!

This seemed cherry sweet to me at first but the cherry immediately fades and the coconut becomes promenant. The iris must be what is coming across as sweet now and the musk makes this very smooth. The hazelnut is very faint and keeps the coconut from smelling like suntan lotion. I love the scent combination on this. This is a foody scent that isn't total foody scent (if that makes any sense). I love this the more I smell this. So nice and rich!

This is so lovely and light! The white musk is very faint and plays well with the aloe and lily. I had imagined this being more floral but it is much more clean and light. I don't really get the amber until this warms up on my skin. Berenice smells so wonderful and I missed out on getting this in a large bottle.

This is so incredibly elegant! I'm not sure I can begins to describe Berenice accurately. This is very green and floral at first. There is an edge to this that I can't quite place. It works nicely to keep Berenice from going too feminine and floral. This smells very much like a hot summer day. This scent is tied together so well. I am so happy I have a bottle!!

This is boozy brown sugar in the bottle and also on my skin for the first hour. This was so sweet at the start that I felt like I could have been in a sugar coma. This warms up nicely and now it smells like creamed sugar just like when you first start mixing up a batch of chocolate chip cookies. This smells so tasty! And you do not need to slather this on at all. I have the tiniest bit on my wrist and it still smells strong. This is fabulous!

Very very strong florals in the bottle and when I first put some on my skin. I couldn't smell anything but floral for the longest time. It's been about 2 hours now and finally this has toned down and become a lighter floral scent with the leather coming out stronger. There is just the tiniest hint of incense also. Much nicer once this has had some time on my skin.

Eucalyptus and cinnamon in the bottle and on my skin. This smells cold and hot at the same time. Once this dries down I can make out a bit of clove and a bit of woodiness. Salamander is very intriguing and while I would burn this in an oil burner, I'm not sure I would wear this. A little too medicinal for wearing.

If the narcissus is what I am smelling paired with the rose, it is a fabulous pairing. Roses are always elegance to me but the narcissus helps keep Pride less innocent. Pride has the illusion of innocence but it is all illusion. Another winner!!

Wow! I received this as a frimp and just... wow! Perversion is totally wicked. This is all sorts of wicked. Boozy, smoky, sweet and leathery. I can't believe how nice and yet how wicked this is!!!

Joy! This is how I wish my porch smelled right now. All peonies and rain. There is a bit of plum blossom and an even smaller bit of woodiness. I thought the florals couldn't get any better than Beth's roses but Peony Moon has me enthralled. It's no wonder people are begging for Peony Moon. This is so lovely! This is sweet and pink without being <I>sweet</I> and <I>pink</I>.

 

So happy I found someone selling a bottle of this! Peony Moon is too good to have passed up.

I didn't get the metallic smell in The Cracked Bell but I certainly get it in Bed of Nails. The wood doesn't come off as dry to me. This is spring green wood. I also get a little bit of lemongrass underneath. I had thought this would smell a lot more dusty and earthy but I am not displeased with the actual scent. This is very elegant and masculine. I am enjoying Bed of Nails a lot.

I can almost taste the dark green scent in here. Mandrake is the type of perfume I love. Slightly dirty, slightly heavy, slightly green. The overall smell reminds me of playing hide and seek in my parents' cedar closet. This is so nice to smell! It gets lighter and more interesting on my skin the longer I wear it. So glad I got a bottle of this!
