I'm going to make this short and sweet so I can get back to sniffing my wrist. This meets the mark in smelling like a pure bonfire. I've been searching for a straight up bonfire scent and I finally have it. It immediately takes me to the woods, fall, summer, any season. I've never been this much in love with a scent since Marianne. Thanks bpal 😍😍😍

OMG I don't even know if I can find the time to stop sniffing my wrist and really concentrate on typing. This scent is absolutely gorgeous. Musky but not overbearing, it's rather smooth and light, yet still strong and powerful. This is very animalistic and sensual. I need a big bottle!
-
Rose and coconut! This is beautiful! The roses hit immediately and they are strong, but soft too; does that make sense? Then the coconut creeps in slowly and wow, the way it mixes with the roses is just. Wow. Definitely a keeper.

As an Aquarius I was PRAYING that I would love this scent, and I do! It's complex on me, the fruit jumps out as does the scent of incense. I definitely get the ozone that some others are mentioning.
-
Very masculine and dark on me. I love masculine scents, but it's a bit too much for my skin! It is a delicious scent though. That lemon keeps sneaking around the other notes in the scent.
-
This is gorgeous from the imp to the dry down. It smells like sparkling fruit mixed with dew-drenched florals. There's a total freshness to this, like I feel like I just chopped up some fruit to eat, and I'm sitting in a garden eating. I want a full bottle!
-
This was pure nutty on me! I'm so confused! I didn't get any vetiver, just a disturbing nut scent. why skin why, I wanted this to work on me!
-
Totally peach. To be honest, I love peach, but this scent is more of a candy peach rings on me, and at first it is too sweet. But then the dry down, and I can handle it a little better. For some reason I'm reminded of the pocono mountains and I'm trying to figure out why. It has this woody undertone on my skin. I'm totally transported to a cabin in the woods. I don't know where this is coming from, but I think I love this scent now.
-
Pretty scent, but nothing extremely amazing to me. The apple is there and the florals hit too. It's very feminine, very day scent. Nice but again nothing special :/
-
Mystical herbs and greens! Yum! When I first put this on I HATED it. Then it began to dry to this, hm, well hard to describe scent! I can picture a little cottage in the woods and the garden out back. It almost smells alive, if that makes sense? It keeps evolving and growing. The word luscious comes to mind.
-
This is a beautiful fruity floral that is very light on me. It smells like spring!
-
This started out as pure patchouli on me (YES!!!). The other notes start coming out on the dry down, and the patchouli goes away. I'm smelling the myrhh now. This is a very dark scent and very death like! Would definitely rec. this to patchouli and incense scents lovers.
-
I don't how to describe this!! It's creamy and beautiful. The orange comes out right away, it's sharp, but I like it. The incense is soft in the background, kind or swirling itself around.
-
A beautiful fruity floral. I was looking for a peach scent to try, and the amount of peach in this is beautiful. It blends so well with the floral on the dry down. This is all spring mornings in a field to me. Sadly, it doesn't last long on me.
-
PURE PATCHOULI! I'm in love. So dark and animalistic. I feel like I'm a hippie shop. I want more. Edit: I'm on my second try with it and now I get a musk and wait for it... Grape pez candy!!! I need to scroll through the posts above to see if anyone else gets this.
-
This is almost all vetiver on me. Very heavy and lush. I'm not getting the peach yet, just a heavy smokey scent. When I first put it on it smelled literally like pot on me. Very herbal at first. Now it's spicy. I think this is growing on me. It's also reminding me of a Liz Taylor perfume as it dries down. Kind of an older woman perfume scent. Honestly, that's sort of a good thing. It's winning me over. ETA: So heavy! It's very lush, almost pure vetiver on me but the fruit behind it. This is beautiful, but just too much for me.
-
I think I'm liking this! The herbs hit me first. A witch shop comes to mind, or a cottage deep in the woods. It quickly turns to apples on me with a faint hint of amber. And now the herbs again mingling with the apple as its drying down. An hour later: full blown apple cider! This has turned very spicy. Beautiful. Total autumn scent
-
This is all amber and sandalwood on me. There's the faintest hint of vanilla, but I'm not getting any of the peach... Sadly!! It's a beautiful warm scent. The word "sensual" comes to mind.
-
This is my new favorite. So sexy and mysterious! I think it's the red musk I'm smelling overpowering everything else, but that's fine with me! It smells delicious. This is my new nighttime scent.

Limited editions equivalents in the general catalog?
heyjjudette replied to Absinthe's topic in Recommendations
I just discovered Marianne and am absolutely in love with it. It has: Red musk, bergamot, black currant, mimosa, orchid, patchouli, and lotus root. I'm thinking it's the red musk that I really like? But am not totally sure. Does anyone have any recs. for scents that are similar? Or scents that have the red musk? Thanks ahead of time! -
I get a smokey floral with this. It's soft but powerful at the same time. Very feminine, I'm getting a lot of the ylang-ylang. I'll be keeping this one.
-
Delicious vanilla and sandalwood!! This smells sugary and gorgeous. I'm not getting the sweet pea, but the scent makes up for that. Definitely a keeper.

This is so helpful! I felt a little lost as a newbie at first... -
Because I grew up in south jersey and still live here, I needed to try this. IT SMELLS EXACTLY LIKE THE PINE BARRENS! It's a beautiful pine too! Whenever I smell a pine scent, it always seems artificial to me, but this is just, wow. I never thought I would like to wear pine on me! I smell a bit of the fruit on my skin, but not much. The pine is dominating. But hey it is the jersey devil, he does live in the pine barrens, so it makes sense. On the dry down I get the cedar and it is lovely. This is a great woody scent. I want to go hiking. Or go on a jersey devil hunt... (They do exist).

Total food scent! I'm gettin almost all hazelnut from this, wet and dry. Also whiffs of vanilla every now and then, and a tiny bit of leather. No patchouli though!, and that was one of the main reasons I wanted to try this! It's a beautiful scent; It makes me want to go bake.
