I agree with the previous posters. This definitely has the champagne note from the the Champagne blends. Smells like fizzy, effervescent lemon lime soda. I didn't even need to open the bottle...I could smell it through the bubble wrap. Way too strong. Glad it's going to a new home!

Dark and bitter: Pepper, earth. Sweet: Tarry clove and pimento. Softeness: by the myrrh and rank and wet with the seaweed. This scent is truly the epitome of this character. This is a little too much for me...but it was wonderful to try!
-
Creamy black cherry and vanilla. On the right day this will be lovely. There is the barest hint of egyptian musk...I am very intrigued by this one. I think I will keep this to see what happens with some aging.
-
Wet: Black musk which I love....and star anise which I hate. Drydown: Where is my myrrh?....ah...there it is. Black musk with the barest hints of star anise. As long as the anise doesn't take over when this ages...this will definitely be in rotation this summer. And my skin is eating this.

Pardon me, Moderators...but I didn't see a thread for this one. Wet: Soft myrrh and Black Plum Drydown: Black plum, frankincense, with the barest hints of lilac. The myrrh really does soften this and the plum keeps it lightly sweet and keeps the myrrh from becoming too powdery. This is absolutely gorgeous and I think I will have to track a partial of this down at some point.

I.Love.This. It's the peppermint from my beloved peppermint single note mixed with the lavender of TKO. The bergamot and mandrake are there...but just barely. This is my go to sleep scent when I don't want to have to deal with the sweetness of TKO. It is utterly amazing.

I have to say that Pain...and Winter stress relief 07 (unreleased) should be considered. Esp. Pain. Lavendar and pennyroyal.
-
Slightly fruity, dry tea and lilac scent. The tobacco and white musk give this also a baby lotion vibe. So....High end Johnson and Johnson baby lotion with hints of fruit and lilac.

Lord does this burn. Literally...it burns the skin. I don't know if it's the incense or musk but it burns. It dries to a sweet, soft incensy leather and fades very quickly. *sigh* If this didn't burn my skin so much........or fade so fast.....I would actually buy a bottle of this.

A scent seething with the perverse splendor of complete and utter madness. High-pitched, yet darkā¦ subdued and deep, but tingling with frenzy: juniper, nutmeg and black cypress shocked by verbena and lavender. Lemony Cedar. I believe that this must have been brighter and stronger when fresh...but now it is a wimpy lemony cedar scent with the barest hints of lavendar. *sigh*
-
High end floral soap with a hint of berries. It's a little nauseating. Must wash off. ADDED Nov. 26: Sweet, Candish and slightly minty with a hint of floral. Not for me. Pass.
-
Glorious red musk with hints of metal and the color red. There is a definitive red note that goes beyond the musk and makes me think of the glowing eye of the witchblade. If the witchblade had a smell to it...this is definitely it.
-
Not what I was expecting. Wet: This is sinister black musk. The geranium gives it a spicy note. As it dries...it becomes sweeter...the benzoin is coming out....and damn it if I don't smell porcelain...it's pretty damn amazing. ETA: for spelling error.

Only sniffed as I don't like jasmine at all. Gunpowder, classic feminine perfume, and FREAKIN JASMINE! Glad this is going to a better home.

I do believe that the black helicopter series is my favorite label artwork.
-
Incense...glorious incense!!! With the barest hints of Shittim Wood and some rose? It's not heavy, church, incense either. It's the kind that you smell when you go into a shop that is dark and mysterious. I love it!!
-
I definitely see the previous reviewer's comparison to silver phoenix. This is definitely a lighter moon rockier version of silver phoenix when wet . The muguet and orris with the vanilla really do smell like rocks. The vanilla in this keeps wafting in and out. I Really do like this and I think I will be reaching for this all summer long. I really do like it!!!
-
This one is truly a morpher. I was graciously gifted with a tester of this from the AWESOME CHESHIRECAT! This definitely has my beloved dark plum note. With something slightly cooling. I won't say mint..but it's definitely cooling. This also has to have a bit of star anise or a licorice note in here somewhere (as my skin amps this) There is a slight floral note..but it is so light and unobtrusive I barely notice it. I definitely see why this is called Black Widow Circus. I can't wait till this scent comes out!

Wet: Fresh Dark Chocolate and Whiskey straight from the bottle of Jack himself. Drydown: This smells like a dark chocolate cordial with whiskey in it. Not only is it dead on but it actually smells a pretty good. However...I don't like Jack or Whiskey so this will have to go to another home.

The Nameless City Drive-In Theatre
Dark Alice replied to Lycanthrope's topic in Retail Exclusive Oils
Wet: Loud masculine cologney musk. Drydown: A very pretty light green slightly cologney musk with hints of butter. So glad that I got to try this...but this will be passed along to a new home. -
This is what I wanted Liz to smell like. Vanilla and leather with the barest hints of metal. I think my skin chemistry has changed enough to actually fall in love with this one.
-
New review: This smells like a lighter and brighter version of Antique Lace alright...but before hand it smells like Antique Lace took a couple a shots of bourbon before doing her thing. She is tipsy but beautiful with the vanilla and tinges of bourbon. Definitely a keeper and great for parties when I want to wear something simple but with a little more character.
-
This smells like baby powder and plastic. Plastic from barbie doll, plastic wrap, plastic dildos.... So not a fan of this one...but I am glad I got to try it.
-
Sweet spicy plum. Where as alice's evidence had the crust/pie note. This doesn't. This is a nice slightly sweet spicy plum. And it's a keeper. Keeping the imp...may hunt down a partial eventually.
