    Thirteen (13): July 2007

    A base of cocoa absolute and white chocolate with thirteen baneful and beneficial bits including vanilla bean, white ginger, orchid, golden peach, massoia bark, clove, honey, and starfruit. I'm really not a fan of this one. At. All. It smells really chocolatey in the bottle but this fades after a few minutes on the skin, where (on me) it turns into a nasty peach air-freshener smell which actually makes me feel sick. I have to admit that I was very dissapointed as this was my first 13 and I was really hoping I'd like it but, alas, no.

    Laudanum

    Hmm... it smells really smokey on me, but I can't really distinguish the individual notes. This one's probably too heavy for daytime (for me, anyway) so I only wear it just before I go to sleep

    Nefertiti

    This smelt very incense-y on me, and turned vaguely soapy after a while, but not to badly. I probably wouldn't want a bottle of this one, but I do like it.

    Velvet

    Velvet on me smells like warm cocoa and .....pencil shavings??? It's not foody at all and the cocoa fades pretty fast so i'm left with the pencil shavings smell, which I presume is the sandalwood coming out. It's such a warm, comforting scent, I think I'll save it till autumn/ winter as it's not really what I'd want to wear in warmer weather.

    Tombstone

    I really wanted to like this one, and I did like it in the imp. But when I tried it on my skin it turned very masculine and way too strong for me to actually want to wear it. In the end I had to try washing it off. It just didn't work for me. Edit- I don't know if my nose has changed or it's down to the imp aging but now I get a warm, soft vanilla with just a little cedar

    Bordello

    A decadent, deep perfume, lusty and luxuriant. The scent evokes images of velvet-lined Old West cathouses, tightly laced corsets, rustling petticoats and coquettish snarls of pleasure. Bawdy plum with amaretto, burgundy wine and black currant. In the vial, I though I wouldn't like Bordello, as it smelt very sickly sweet. However when worn it toned down a lot, becoming a much lighter, fruity scent, and I actually like it a lot. In fact, it might be one for the 5ml wishlist

    Lolita

    This is a sweet scent, but quite citrusy. It actually reminds me of candy necklaces. When I wore this, it lasted all day, and I kept sniffing my wrists and elbows. People must've thought I was crazy, but I just couldn't stop myself!

    Eos

    I didn't think i'd like this one because i'm not overly fond of florals. But I got it as a frimp and I actually like it a lot! Hmm... when it first went on it was very strong and jasmine-y but now it's faded a little I can smell the honeysuckle much more, with the buttercup being very faint. Will be lovely when the weather decides that spring should finally arrive.

    Alice

    I really like this scent. It started off as very much a honey smell, but later I could smell the rose and carnation over the honey. A sweet, delicate scent, and one which I definitely need a bottle of.

    Turn around time

    Yay! That gives me hope that mine might arrive fairly soon. It'll probably still be a few weeks til it arrives but it's my first order and I'm really excited about it! Arg, the WAITING! I'm so impatient about waiting for parcels to arrive. It's awful!

    How to make a paypal order.

    I made an order a few days ago through paypal and I got an email to say that the money was sent, but it doesn't seem to have been taken out of my bank yet. Should I be worried that the order might not have worked? Or is paypal just being slow? This was my first order using paypal so I don't really know how it works
