I wanted to LOVE this. It has everything in it that I love, especially the almond. But this is my least favorite of the lot that I bought. The initial scent was french fries, saltiness, something weird. A fast food restaurant. Even when it's left open for a few minutes, it doesn't get any better. It almost makes me have that gaggy lump in the back of my throat. What the frig? I want a do-over! (haha)

I wanted to love this, and I do like it, but only on the dry down. I was hoping that out of the box it would smell similar to the Snow White(s), but.... Gah! B.O. and light camphor! Lavender? Fir? The longer this was open, the more it grew on me. Definitely a wintry scent. Not Xmas. I could wear this.

Dry. Some kind of nut? Intriguing! On initial application the smell of the vanilla was strong. I didn't get any amber from this at all, but that's just me. I was hoping for the amber! This is a lovely autumnal scent.

Cloying. Purple, candy, the faintest shred of Midway with raspberry(?) and sweetness in a richly scented treat. The dry down allows the strong candy scent to fade a bit, but this is still to gourmand for me.

Clean, but not Cotton. Like clean, soapy skin. Light lavender.

The ghosts swarm. They speak as one person. Each loves you. Each has left something undone… With love to Rae Armantrout for the poem. Black lilies, red roses, and baby’s breath. A mild light flower scent with a shot of something metallic in the background. Vanilla? Midway? The dry down is a lightly warmed gourmand scent. Clean soap, roses. After 2hrs it faded to a faint rose-soap scent. This is bottle worthy for me.

A little floral, a little green, a little 90's perfume-y, very very light earthy.

Very light sent of coconut, that leaves me with the fading memory of TKO. Mild lavender. A little Midway on the drydown. Finishes with a whiff of the vanilla in Antique Lace.

Mmmmmm!!! Lovely, delicious, Beth perfume-y scent. Think the lightness of Zorya P. There's a long, strong scent of old school rubber doll head on the finish. Like baby powder and rose and plastic. Love that!

Dark soapy scent. Lavender. Metal? Medicine? Not a fan of this one.

White, dusty, mild scent. Dorian in the finish.

Lightly wine-y grape-y mixed with a mild perfume-y scent.

Sweet, dark pink candies. Leaves a lingering, faint breath of midway.

Warm, deep. Had an initial whiff of dill.

This is pure dirt with a smear of flowers on me. It's quite pungent! I had to wash it off. It always amazes me how exact the "earthy" scents are.
