Ever tried Lucky Chic's Mimosa, Jasmine and Violet scent? This is that with MORE POWER! It isn't what I was expecting. I think I was expecting something fuzzy, subtle, and dark, but Melisande is strong ,bright, loud and very purple. Forget you ever heard the phrase "shrinking violet!" I like this, but it's not the sort of thing I can wear every day. It's a "notice me" sort of scent

I like Snake Oil. I don't love Snake Oil. I ADORE this stuff. There's Snake Oil down there somewhere, but it's drowned under a deep haze of heavy, wet, dark, green, mossy, oily, salty goodness. Reminds me of rainy days in Florida - the wooded swampy parts of Florida. Banded Sea Snake is sort of heavy and in-your-face, but it's beautiful and unique, and it feels like home to me.

The word that comes to mind when I think Midnight on the Midway is "sophisticated." It's one of my favorite grown-up scents: subtle and gentle and somehow very evocative of night-time. It's all soft dark incense on me, but at the same time, behind it is always the echo of the sweet playfulness of Midway. One of my favorites!
