Schmoozy

This is all grapes and melons with a hint of aquatics and florals. It's juicy, wet, and really appropiate for the upcoming season. I always forget about these hidden gems in the general catalog and I can't wait to put this into my scent rotation.

This is one hell of a sexy scent. Golden amber and honey. I mean does it get any better than this? I think not. I wear this when I want to feel sexy, and when I want comfort. There is just something so comforting about amber and honey mixed together. The more aged, the better O is. Although I have been warming up to fresh stuff.

My imp of this is super aged. I have had for over 4 years, and am just now getting to test it.

Honeyed blood orange with apricot and tonka. The honey is rich, thick and extremely sweet. The apricot and blood orange pair well together & somehow the tonka adds a little spice and seems to temper the sweetness of the honey. This is stunning.

One of the best violets blends ever. Violet and gardenia are sweetened with vanilla. It is creamy, sweet, and slightly spicy. Neither the violet nor the gardenia take over, each one stands out on their own and I love how I can smell both seperately and also together.

Juicy purple berries, alot of greenery and the unmistakeable scent of herbs. Although it feels very summery, there is a cold note that blasts through the blend every once in awhile. This is one of my favorite Rappa blends, because it's herbal, green and the fruit is not very sweet.

Simply beautiful. Sweet and creamy carnations. A little green with a touch of spice. You can feel winter linger in this blend, but at the same time know that spring is right around the corner. It sticks close to the skin, and I feel young & kinda carefree when I wear this.

Candles Moon comes across as soft, yet cold milky berries with the slightest undertones of wax. It's a very unassuming scent. Lasts for hours, yet maintains a softness the whole time.

Yes this is exactly floral tea. More specifically lilac tea. It has touches of lavender and ginger making it spicy and herbal. After it has the chance to drydown this turns into a waispy floral heavy on the lilac. Very springlike and pretty, but a decant will be enough.

Unfortunately jasmine and champaca are the stars of this blend. They overpower the juicy tart pear, and somehow even the sandalwood is making me gag. This is so not for me.

I had high hopes for this and it was everything I expected and more. Slightyl boozy, very leathery with a kick of tobacco and wood. This smells fabulous on Mr. Schmoozy. I love the leather stays softly in the background letting the cognac and tobacco stand out.

Another winner. Simple and understated. Cedar & black currant with just a hint saffron to give it some spice and temper the sweetness ofthe black currant. It's woodsy and ffruity with a kick.

Mmm. This is lovely. Soft, spicy myrrh & tobacco with just the slightest hint of rose geranium. It has a decidely dry woodsy feel to it.

As it dries down it gets even softer and more woody.

Uh, yah not for me. This is all vetiver and patchouli.

Juicy tangerine and sharp white musk. The cypress also adds tartness. I kinda of agree with the comparison to Lilith vs. the Giant Crab. It has a similar vibe goin on with the tangerine. While it's pretty, a decant is enough for me as it doesn't last very long on my skin.

This is all forest, all the time, right in your face. Dry, woodsy, earthy. It could have been amazing, but this is one of those times that patchouli does agree with my skin chemistry.

Rose and lychee. It's sweet, kinda perfumey and very rose. I adore rose, but this is too much. I liek more greenery with rose, than perfume.

Cloved mandarin with black licorice. No cumin at all. Will keep my decant and thrown this in the tart burner during the holidays.

Cool, soft florals with amber infused cardamom. It's spicy, golden and very pretty. It doesn't last very long on my skin though, and after awhile this is all bergamot and cardamom.

Rose, nuts and rice powder. Hmm. Creamy, slightly floral, but overall it doesn't really do much for me.

Hello ylang ylang. Woah. The coconut milk, skin musk and amber play beautifully. The ylang ylang adds tartness, and at first overpowers everything else. After drydown it settles nicely into the background and orange blossom appears giving spice to a pretty tropical feeling blend.

Love this. This is such a juicy, honeyed scent that is bursting with quince and mandarin. It's sweet & fruity, the vanilla adds creaminess while the tobacco and cognac add depth and spice.

Dry, dusty orris and well worn leather with ginger. It's slightly creamy, with resins and spice. While I love the blend, I have many other leather ones that work better and I don't think Mr. Schmoozy will like this. All you have to do is add white sandalwood and this would be really close to the White Rider.

Red tea and golden amber with vanilla peaches. The myrrh sits quietly in the background alongside mandarin and lotus root giving depth & spice. This is truly a beautiful scent. It's soft, golden, sweet and sticks really close to the skin.

Love this. Smoky vanilla, ho wood and tonka. The lilac adds freshness.

Spicy amber floral. Touches of beeswax and rose compliment the blend. After drydown, the amber completely disappears and the beeswax turns into a smoky plastic scent. Too bad. I really wanted this one to work.
