In the bottle it's very sweet smelling, with apple floating beneath the surface of the honey. Kind of like the smell of a really good apple shampoo. On my skin, it's absolutely gorgeous. Delicious rich golden honey with apple sweetening it in the background. It has good throw on me, my mom walked past me and told me she could smell it even though I only had a small test patch on. Which is good to know because otherwise I would probably slather it...it just smells so good as it dries. I was hoping the apple would dominate this one, but I still really love it. Definitely something I will be wearing quite a bit!

This one is really lovely! A light berry scent, with a little bit of earthy herbs in the background. It fades somewhat quickly on me, but it still has decent throw. I think it will be nice in spring/summer.

In the imp this was a minty eucalyptus, very fresh and mild. Once on the skin I got a little of the musk, a lot of eucalyptus, and still a little mint. I thought it smelled quite masculine so it's not something I would wear though I didn't dislike the smell. But I made my brother try it and he liked it (his exact words were "It's good. I like it.") so he may be getting a bottle in the future. Overall, it's a really pleasant scent, but it's not for me.

A sinister, darkly seductive scent inspired by poetry of Charles Baudelaire. Violet entwined with vanilla and gardenia. So this was definitely a perfume that I wanted to love but it went so wrong on my skin. In the imp I thought it smelled pleasant, very nice florals with a little hint of vanilla. On my skin it went allllll gardenia, no violet or vanilla to be found. Gardenia, apparently, amps off my skin in a really strong, not-good way. Too much gardenia for me, but I think it could smell nice on someone else.

When this is wet, it's pure honey on my skin. Sweet and delicious honey. As it dries, the honey fades to the background and the rose, carnation and bergamot come to the forefront. It becomes a really nice blend of florals that is sweetened by the honey and made smooth and creamy by the milk. I wish the honey was more prominent when this was dry but other than that I really like it.

This is a very warm, nice vanilla on me. It's got hints of sweet pea and amber, but almost none of the sandalwood comes through on me. I think it smells absolutely delicious and I will probably be purchasing a bottle. It fades a little quickly, unfortunately, but I don't mind having to reapply.

In the bottle: super lovely fresh rose smell, a little bit overpowering. Wet on skin: similar to the smell in the bottle. Very strong rose scent with the smell of leaves coming through at the end of a whiff. Dry on skin: Pretty much the perfect rose scent. Light, with just the right amount of freshness to balance out the rose. The strength of the scent fades away fast but a soft smell lingers on my skin for quite some time. Overall, it's an absolutely lovely rose scent and one of my favorites. It makes me smell exactly like a fresh rose in full bloom and I love it.
