    Ouija

    I really wanted to love this blend, and it smelt promising in the imp. But, I do get the ghostly references that others had referred to. The scent is a well-blended soft floral, and there is no sharpness at all even when wet. I'm highly impressed since some floral notes do go on quite sharply on me (and I tend to amp roses too). However, the scent reminded me of a deodorant that I once had While it's a gorgeous and clean floral, I don't see myself reaching for it when I have The Ghost Children that evokes the same feels.

    Sea of Glass

    Was recently frimped this, and it was a pleasant surprise! This reminds me of Tommy Girl, Kenzo Eau de Fleur de Magnolia, Bath and Body Works White Citrus - a citrus and bright fragrance which is tempered with the sweeter, creamier white floral notes. I have no idea what the floral note might be, but based on the notes of the fragrances that it brings to mind - it could be magnolia, honeysuckle, water lily, lily-of-the-valley. Great for warmer weather and for everyday (especially if you're concerned about your scent being too strong). Love it, but with 3 similar scents in my collection, I would probably not need a bottle.

    Mantis

    Initial Thoughts: Seems pretty fresh, green and herbal-esque. Upon application: I get citrus - specifically lemon and after the citrus note dissipate, I'm left with amber. Normally, I would be raving about how awesome it is, but the amber in here doesn't seem to work that well with my chemistry. Amber, in this instance, is overwhelming sweet and insists on broadcasting its presence to everyone. Unfortunate, indeed.

    Incantation

    Initial Thoughts: Definitely not a scent that I see myself wearing. It started off as somewhat lemony and a slight sickeningly sweetness lurking in the background. After about half hour: Oh god, get it off my wrist. It reminded me of being carsick at the backseat of a car on a warm and humid day. One of the few scents that I actually rinsed off because it made me physically sick (Headache). Wanted this to work, but unfortunately, no On the other hand, I'm somewhat amazed by how it evokes memory of being sick.

    Lips Full of Lust and Laughter

    I'm not that great at picking up notes, or describing scents in general but I try >.< Upon Application: Flowers, honey and tangerine. I get mostly the honey note, and this smells exactly like honey straight from the jar. The honey is tempered with a slight fruity note from the tangerine, and for some reason, i do get a hint of floral. Dry: I get a slight whiff of honey, but mostly, it is a musky and incense note. The tangerine is still there, and together with the honey, they help prevent me from smelling just like pure incense. The scent is extremely long-lasting! Use with caution! When I first dabbed a couple of time on my pulse points, my brother (who was in another room) actually came over and asked if I was wearing any scent. Also, the scent is there after 7-8 hours, though it has become more of a skin scent by then. The scent is pretty unique; I have yet to smell anything like it before. Not sure if I need a bottle, but I wouldn't mind picking up an extra imp/decant if it comes by and the price is right
