So beautiful! The scent is popping with gardenia, apricot and honey. I don't pick up any citrus. I love gardenia and it is prominent.

This is very herb/woody in the bottle but it dries to a spicy wood. I am not picking up any citrus at all. The wood is grounding and the spice is warm and inviting.

Modillian hits this one on the head. It's a complicated scent, starting out very sweet and then delivering a shot of liquor that nearly knocks me out. It smooths out on drydown but is still a bit sinister. I am picking up the floral bouquet, particularly the orange blossom and gardenia, but they are in a wooden vase filled with booze. Magnificent.

This scent is very clean and fresh. It reminds me of a meadow after a spring thundershower. Very nice.

Wow... this is lovely. The myrrh, musk and honey mix beautifully. It's husky voiced and sexy. It is spicy on initial application and it morphs to a stunning warm and purring sort of scent. LOVE.

In the imp: Salty aquatic with a hint of floral Wet: a bouquet of flowers in salt water Dry: soapy floral, still with a hint of saltiness I agree with whoever said this would be perfect for a child- it is a sweet, innocent fragrance.

The first time I tried Bess, I thought it was just a rose scent. Wrong wrong wrong. It is so much more complex! In the imp: I smell herbs, sharp and pungeant. Wet: Orange peel and grape-- there's a bit of mint as an afterthought. Dry: The rose comes out as the other notes fade. However, they do not allow the rose to run rampant. They encourage her with their scents.

In the imp: smells like fingernail polish remover- I smell acetone. Wet: Patchouli primarily. Dry: Dreaded Hamster Cage odor. Bleccch.

I am a fan of violet so this one is right up my alley. There's a bit of something breezy and fresh (could it be mint? I don't know- if that's what it is, it's very shy) in the background but it keeps peeking around the corner enough to be noticed. Definitely a summer blend. Pretty, fresh and all sparkly.

Siren started out very jasmine-ginger. When it dried, the vanilla came out and pretty much stomped everything else. I smell like vanilla. Generic vanilla. Pleasant but non-descript.

This is one huge lilac and violet bouquet. It goes on strong and has incredible staying power. I do like it but don't see myself reaching for it very often. It is THAT strong.

Violets. The candy. That's what I get from this. Nothing more.

In the imp and wet: Jasmine and honeysuckle- very sweet white floral scent Dry: This is a perfect springtime fragrance. Several reviewers have mentioned Easter. That would definitely be the time to wear Eos.

Pretty pretty pretty. This is dusted cocoa vanilla goodness. There's a little bit of sandalwood in the background that balances the foodiness. And 8 hours later it is still strong and just as pretty.

In the imp and wet: I find this super-sweet with a spicy peppery edge. Dry: The cloying sweetness has backed off and I detect vetivert, cinnamon and something very herbal. This is nice but not something I would wear often.

Strong black tea and milk with white pepper, ginger, honey and vanilla, spilled over the crisp scent of clean linen. In the imp: Sweet ginger tea Wet: I'm picking up a bit of vanilla with the spicy sweetness of the ginger Dry: WOW. This is beautiful!! It's a sweet ginger, shot through with vanilla and honey. There's a hint of pepper in the background Definitely bottle worthy

Oh, my. The combination of sandalwood, amber and vanilla is exquisite. This fragrance is sultry and wispy. This may have to go in the top ten.

In the imp and wet: I get fresh green something.... and melon. However, it quickly turns to soap. Dry: Soap. Generic soap.

in the imp and wet: Honey and almonds with spices so strong I got slightly queasy. Dry: Whew! That's over with, thankfully. The drydown is pretty much almonds. The honey is still there but not so sweet anymore. There's a powdery plastic there as well. Nix.

This starts out fruity but with a sour edge. As it dries, the sourness becomes fairly pronounced. I pick up musk and tea but the sour fruit is overpowering. Not for me.

In the imp and wet: Citrus- I am smelling grapefruit and lemon. Dry: The sharpness of the citrus backs down and it's much softer. I detect tea and something else that is giving this a bit of an herbal quality. Not bad.

Lovely wonderful amber abounds in this scent. Combining that with the myrrh and fig that are the primary notes that I detect, Aeronwen is voluptuous and sexy. Love...

Red musk, bergamot, black currant, mimosa, orchid, patchouli, and lotus root. In the imp: Sweet with a definite sharp edge. Wet: The musk is beautiful! It's a bit sweeter, but not cloyingly so. I am picking up patchouli. I wish I knew the other notes... Dry: Just gorgeous. Soft but with a decidedly wild streak lurking right beneath the surface.

Am I sniffing the right stuff? I read reviews about lavender and hemp and pomegranate? I smell pine and anise. I like it but I wonder where the other notes have gotten off to.

This is a lovely dark and musky fragrance... for a man. I find it too... well... dark and musky for me.
