Dark Fruits...plum, pomegranate....no berry thank goodness. And...ash! Grave yard ash with the barest hints of patchouli. So glad I got to try this...but I think I will be passing this along!
-
Soft and clean. Completely sophisticated. Wet: The fragiapani and ambrette is a litte strong. Drydown: the vanilla comes through with hints of rose peeking in and out. This is amazing. I have never had a more beautiful bottle of perfume. I love that!
-
This is amazing!!!! The black musk is sweetened by the neroli and the tonka. While wet....I actually thought there was some red musk in this. Dry, the black pepper kicks in to tickle my nose but the tonka keeps it slightly sweet and grounded. I love this! This will be a bottle in my next order.

Minty White honey...while wet. Drydown...this goes from white honey till funky butt munching dried honey...with a minty twist. Not a fan.
-
I would drink this if I could. It smells like a rich, sweet, berry drink. I see where the starburst reference comes from. This is delicious however...I would prefer it in an alcoholic drink to actually wearing it.
-
This smells like a coconut/pina colada version of Snow white. I can see why others love it. It is definitely tropical in feel. However...it's not for me. And I am so grateful to EDEN SIXTH DAY for letting me try it!

Floral Pine cleaner meets frankincense. That's what I get from this...plus a headache. Must wash this off now!
-
Juicy rich currant. Lush Magnolia. Where have you been all my life! I need this. It reminds me of the magnolia from the tree that used to grow in front of my grandmother's home. Lush...heady...and delicious! I need this. Now!
-
I don't know why I need this...but I do. The antique patchouli is delicious the vetiver plays really well...but I don't smell too much snake oil. Since Snake Charmer never worked for me...I can't make the comparison...I also don't see the Panther moon reference either...but this is pretty delicious. I think Tombeur stands out on its own. This will definitely find its way into my fall rotation.

This actually smells like honey on me. Sweet...sticky honey with hints of frankicense. Maybe its the bunn? Either way its very disconcerting. This is what I imagine Edward would smell like from the Twilight series. Sweet, sticky..with hints of frankincense.
-
This is a wonderfully subtle floral. The spanish moss and wisteria really take hold while the myrrh adds just a hint of sweetness. Definitely glad I got to try it...but I think My imp will suit my needs just fine.
-
This is what I wanted Tamora and Algea to smell like. Light...peachy boozy goodness. I need a bottle of this.
-
Orangey Tangy Catnip with dark Moss. Quite unique...but I don't think I will need a bottle.
-
Wet: Dark Chocolate. Dry: Bitter, Funky Dark Chocolate with something burnt. Verdict: Meh!

Desiccated Frostberry Pie Filling
Dark Alice replied to pinkstardust420's topic in Black Phoenix Trading Post
Minty fruit/some kind of berry with no pie crust. It's quite nice actually the mint is not over powering. I actually like this one. I think I am going to track this one down in partial form. -
MC was dead on the money of this. This smells like the cheap Fruit Stripe gum that only has 5 seconds of flavor to it. The green musk...it's there...but it is mixing with the tea the wrong way. My skin ate the lime sugar right up as I suspected it would. And now this has just dried down to green musk single note. Meh!

Where as Raven Moon evoked the image of black feathery night...this scent evokes the image of brown feathery warmth. It is a well balanced blend of clove, vanilla, and whatever magic Beth put in this. It is definitely "feathery" I don't know how else to describe this. Maybe a second testing will bring more words....but in the mean time...it's wonderful and I am SOOOOO GLADDDD I got a bottle.
-
Wet: Brown Sugar overload. Dry: Burnt brown sugar (I think this is the clove) with hints of plum. This is making me Which is sad b/c it was one of the ones I was sure I would want in botte form. *sigh*
-
There is no damn butter in here! It's actually a dark, slightly powdery resinous bottle of joy! It also smells clean and dark as well. I am so glad I bought this bottle!
-
I AM SO GLAD I BOUGHT THIS! I was really really scared of the sugar and chamomile...but the orris keeps it from being too sweet! It gives it a fluttery effect! So glad I took a chance on this! This will be used, worn and loved!

Wet: This smells like canned spinach. Metallic, canned spinach!Drydown: the vetiver is really strong here! No currant or lemon sugar...which is odd b/c I amp the hell out of sugar normally...but the apricot does peak through! Soft apricot tangling with the vetiver. I don't know if I will keep this but...it sure is interesting!Wet: This smells like canned spinach. Metallic, canned spinach!Drydown: the vetiver is really strong here!

Chaos Theory VI: Recursive Self-Similarity v7
Dark Alice replied to Kitrona's topic in Limited Editions
#265-Spicy Ginger and rootbeer with vanilla. Not a fan of the foody stuff. This one will have to go! #248-Aloe and vanilla...something clean. I love this one. -
Chaos Theory VI: Recursive Self-Similarity v7
Dark Alice replied to Kitrona's topic in Limited Editions
#310... Sadly this is fake raspberry candy on me with soft hints of vanilla. It smells like raspberry swirl lifesavers actually. The cream note...I think it's cream isn't stinky on my skin....but this is just something I can't wear. Off to the sales page with you! -
This is one of the most unique scents I have ever had the pleasure of trying. The cardamom is strong at first and then the vanilla peaks out to say hello! This is bottle worthy!
-
Mint...piney mint! Like Snowball fracas without the freakin dirt! Dry: Mint with the barest hints of vanilla and florals. Not a fan of this one.
