I have to agree with the reviews mentioning this being clean smelling. It is bright and fresh, like taking a big whiff of sea air in the morning. Very pretty.

Another sniffie with a tiny bit in the vial... And oh my, how lovely. Beeswax and HONEY. I smell HONEY. And like Winnie the Pooh, I don't mind if I do. Very nice.

There was just a tiny bit of oil left in this gifted sniffie. I get mainly clove and patchouli incense. It didn't last too long though and I am not sure if this is because of my chemistry or because there was not enough to use. I do like what I got to sniff.

Thankfully I do not get the smoke that others have mentioned. This scent is primarily a spicy musk on me. Dark, rich and cozy. It is nice and will be relegated to the "winter" blends.

Sudha Segara is lovely. I just wish it lasted a bit longer. It is honey and ginger sweet creamy soft goodness. And then it is gone.

CCCLXIX: Aerinha reviewed this scent (we were in the same decant circle). My impression of 369 is nothing like hers. I smell coconut and sweet floral with a slight tinge of mint. This blend is absolutely fabulous.

OK, I am nuts. When Eau de Ghoul first touched my skin, I smelled cola with lime. It is dry now and I still get the lime but I can smell the clove (which is probably what I thought was cola). It is a very interesting scent. I like it.

I originally got a sniffie of O in a swap and fell in love. My beloved amber lingered in there, as well as lovely honey and vanilla. My ultra-wonderful winter Switch Witch gifted me with a full imp so I finally got to try it for real. What I discovered is that O is deliciously heavy and sticky-sweet smelling. It is definitely a winter scent and a little goes a long long way.

Whoa- this IS dust and marble in the imp. I thought I was going to hate it. WRONG. On my skin, the flowers pop and the fragrance turns sweet. How wonderful!!

I got a sniffie of this from another forumite. It is lovely. At first I get a whiff of peppery spice and when it dries down, it becomes both sweet and tart. There is greenery in the background too. The overall effect is balanced and just gorgeous.

I really didn't find this to be too masculine at all. I would have no problems wearing it myself. On application, it is incredibly spicy and warm. On drydown, I get musk, lovely but feral musk. I would consider this a winter fragrance. LOVE.

All righty. Were I to pick a huge bouquet and then turn it upside down and sniff, that green smell would be The Potter's Field. It doesn't change over time either, although later on I am aware that someone dumped a bag of grass clippings on the bouquet. I can see wearing this on occasion when I want a hint of spring. Otherwise, no.

Gorgeous! Sniffing this reminded me of taking a deep breath of winter air... but while holding a bouquet of flowers close to my face. It is harsh and delicate all at once. Icy and floral. Gorgeous. (just wish it would last a bit longer)

I should have known I'd like this. Amber loves me and I love it right back. The resins and sandalwood settle in after drydown. It's warm and inviting. I like it.

This is so pretty! I get musk and amber mostly (and amber is one of my favorite notes). I am not picking up the almond but I do think I detect a bit of sandalwood. The scent has the potential to be overpowering, though, so I don't think this is a slathering fragrance. Definitely a dabber.

In the Bottle and Wet: Crisp, icy cold tart apple and mint. The mint is an afterthought but it is definitely there. Dry: The tartness of the apple softens a bit but does not fade. The mint becomes a bit more prominent. Absolute beauty.

This is such a calming and soft blend. It is floral but there is something else there that is centered. Sandalwood? Vanilla? I can't tell (and wouldn't know anyway) But I do know that Tushnamatay is a favorite.

What an amazing scent. In the imp and wet on application, Laudanum is bitter and medicinal. As it dries, I first smell wood and then the sassafras. It is a little sweeter but still has a serious in-your-face aroma. I like it, although I don't see it as a frequent scent. It'll be something to save for occasional use.

I am swooning over Lurid. I have never sniffed anything so darkly and powerfully sexy in my entire life. I think I am amping the musk and resin because this fragrance is indeed fierce. I am going to hug my Winter Switch Witch in two for sending me yet another blend that is now a favorite.

Through sunlit caves of ice, roses unfurl amidst dancing waves of serpentine opium smoke and amber tobacco, golden sandalwood, champaca, tea leaf, sugared lily, ginger, rich hay absolute, leather, dark vanilla, mandarin, peru balsam, and Moroccan jasmine. I am having such good luck with scents lately. Kubla Khan is no exception. In the imp I can smell jasmine mostly. After it dries, the jasmine calms down and it turns into a smoky incense. It is an exotic heady blend- I think I am in love. Definitely a favorite. (Winter Switch Witch, I LOVE you for allowing me to try this!)

Mata Hari and I are friends. I love the soft jasmine and vanilla. There is just the smallest hint of rose. This scent is lovely.

Ick. Vetivert is yuck.

Mmmmm... musk. Mmmmm... peach. Very pretty. Sparkly, light and airy.

Veil has many of my favorite notes. It starts out a little sharp- the orris, lilac and gardenia are powerful. As it dries, they all calm down and allow the lavender, violet and sandalwood to shine. The combination is soft and wispy. Many thanks to my Winter Switch Witch for sending me an imp of this marvelous blend. I love it.

Pretty pretty. I pick up jasmine and musk, beautifully balanced. Urania does glitter and sparkle. I like it muchly.
