    Carlin

    Heathery and herbal. I detect sage right at the beginning. It feels fresh, and green, but there's sweetness to it as well. Upon drydown anise really starts to poke through, lending a spicy licorice type note that really amps the green.

    Feeding The Dead

    Yum. Incense cakes. There is just a touch of spice, and a bit of beer A simple scent really, and it is damn good.

    Devil's Night

    Boozy, spicy and smoky. Truth be told, the booze and smoke overpower the feeling of autumn and the spices that go along with it. The addition of musk & sugar tend to amp the notes of doom. Not going to work.

    Perle von Mauren

    Soft, wispy florals that translate into baby powder with the barest touch of soil. It's kinda weird in a good way, but it doesn't blow me away, so a decant is enough. I detect no blood, or the metallic tang associated with it.

    Sarah

    It surprises me that some of these vamp's are airy and aquatic. Sarah is another that has that vibe. Damp, wet, ozone alongside incense and foam. The incense is lovely, but somehow the way it mingles with this underlying sweetness, just does not bode well with me.

    The Hell-Gate Of Ireland

    Hmm, smoky, dark and wayyyy to much clove. After drydown, most of the smokiness burns off and I am left with musky clove. Not for me.

    Ariadne Brunnell

    Wispy & aquatic. Soft, sweet florals, with a touch of moss and peat to ground the sweetness. It's earthy, yet feminine, and doesn't last very long with skin chemistry.

    Lord Ruthven

    Herbal leather with the tang of metallic blood. Definitely masculine, and I love leather and herbals, and together they work really well. Unfortunately I can't get past the addition on the metallic blood note, and ultimately it ruins the blend.

    Clarimonde

    White roses and musk. It feels airy and aquatic. There is the barest hints of spicy oriental notes, but mainly this musky rose.

    Cristina

    Warm, toasted chesnuts mingles with soft musk and juniper berries. Labdanum adds sweetness and a resin backdrop. There is just the slightest touch of violet, but it manages to get lost in the other florals. Very pretty, slightly foody and kinda sweet.

    Pumpkin Patch V (2005, 2006)

    This is most definitely a woodsy pumpkin. Earthy, and green, it lacks the spice and buttery feeling that most of the pumpkin patch blends give. With that being said it is still a damn good one. It feels more like picking pumpkins than baking pumpkin.

    Pumpkin Patch II (2005, 2006)

    Another creamy, spicy buttery pumpkin with nuts. There is the smallest hint of cocoa which adds the foody nature of this blend,and gives it the slightest of sweetness. But mainly this is pure pumpkin with a touch of nuts.

    Pumpkin Patch IV (2005, 2006)

    What could be better than dry dusty sandalwood and orris root alongside creamy, spicy pumpkin. This scent is so comforting, and extremely relaxing. The pumpkin takes backstage to the other two notes, & while I do love pumpkin, I also adore sandalwood and orris root. This is one of my most coveted pumpkin blends.

    Pumpkin Patch III (2005, 2006)

    Nommy. Pumpkin and pomengranate. Buttery, creamy spicy pumpkin and tart, sweet pom's. The two combine together beautifully.

    Pumpkin Patch I (2005, 2006)

    Possibly one of my favorite pumpkin patch blends ever. Spicy, buttery pumpkin mingles with tart apple and mulling spices. It's juicy, sweet, sour and spicy all at the same time. So damn good!

    The Ghastly Garden

    Lush, green florals sweetened with berries and nectar. For a blend to contain so much earthy greenery, it sure is sweet. The lightest hint of roses poke through every now and again, but this is sweet nectar and berries alongside vibrant lush blooms. It doesn't feel very weenie or even fall like.

    The Forbidding Foyer

    Thick shadows hang heavy across fungus-smeared, dilapidated wainscoting, cobwebs hang like fine lace across sagging mouldings, rats scuttle past gaping doorways. The faint scent of brimstone, ghostly breath laced with cognac, neglected mahogany panels, and rot. Dry, cognac sweetened mahogany. Traces of mould mingle along the wood. I adore wood blends, but unfortunately the cognac ruined this for me. It just doesn't agree with my chemistry.

    Bonfire Night

    Smoky, dark, ashy. Thick, black smoke mingles with tar and treacle. Not my cup of tea. Noy even for a room scent.

    All Souls

    2007 Version Incense cake and sweet currants. While it is indeed foody, it is also spicy and dark. I get whiffs of sweet booze too. Not sure why.

    Samhainophobia

    2007 Version Strong smoky vetiver, earthy patchouli and oakmoss. It is very woody, slightly spicy, earthy and dark. The scent of leaves mingles throughout the blend, and there is the smallest hints of booze. Overall, once I get past the screaming vetiver and patchouli this is a true autumn scent. Definitely not a skin scent for me, but it will be perfect in a oil burner.

    Pumpkin IV (2007)

    Starts off really earthy and herbal, which is a pleasant surprise because most of the pumpkin blends tend to be on the foody side. However, after drydown, this turns really sweet. There is still a herbal bite that mingles with pumpkin, but it is a little to sweet. Where's the spice?

    Pumpkin II (2007)

    In this blend the pumpkin is not so buttery and creamy, but really tart and spicy with the addition of carnation. The tonka lends some sweetness, but this is mainly spicy, floral pumpkin.

    Pumpkin III (2007)

    Oddly enough, while I love pumpkin and chocolate, this is one of the few pumpkins I really don't like. Not a big fan of white chocolate, and the combo of caramel, white chocolate and pomengranate mixed with pumpkin just doesn't agree with my skin chemistry. *shrugs* oh well I can't love them all.

    Pumpkin V (2007)

    Ooohh. This is reminescent of my beloved Pumpkin Queen. Slightly foody, and very spicy, especially with the red ginger. There is a definite citrus kick in addition to the spicy, buttery, creamy pumpkin. This is soo delicious.

    Pumpkin I (2007)

    Pumpkin with pear, white wine grapes, and jasmine-laced tea. At first this starts off very buttery and very spicy pumpkin. After dry down the butter and spice mellow out and in it's place wine grapes and pear begin to come through. I can barely detect jasmine-lace tea, but the tea note is prevalent. To me it is more a fruity tea than jasmine te which is just fine. I really don't like jasmine, and there is none to be found in this blend. Overall a fuity tea pumpkin oil.
