I just got a bottle of it. I've been wearing it all evening, and it reminds me of a combination of Snake Oil and Eat Me. Two of my favorites combined!

When I dressed as Inara for Halloween this last year I wore Scherezade.

Lemon Scented Sticky Bat! If you can find it, Severin has a beautiful lemon on me too!

I wore Scherezade when I went to a Halloween event on Saturday. I was dressed as Inara from Firefly and it just seemed fitting. Today I'm wearing Boo '11.

In the imp it reminded me SO MUCH of a perfume oil I bought in a little store in the French Quarter years and years ago. It was a rainy day, and I was wandering around with my bestfriend. On my skin, it starts with that scent, and then something almost like lime appears briefly, and then it turns to rum. From there it turns to a perfumy scent with dirt on top. I really like it.

Has anyone found anything similar to I Died For Beauty?

Anyone know how long it normally takes to hear back or if there are still any issues with the lab's email?

The Infernal Lover is my new favorite red musk! I'm dying to try The Soldier because it has it too.

If I want to make sure I don't get lotion, etc, on the wandcap, I kinda hold it at an angle over my wrist and tap on it lightly to make a drop fall off onto my skin. If I'm not wearing lotion, I tend to slather. I've just learned not to put lotion on my wrists...lol. There are also caps you can put on the bottle (I can't remember the name of them right now) that will make the mouth of the bottle much smaller so you could pour a few drops out at a time. If I'm testing an oil, cutting the cotton end of a cotton swab and using the plastic part as a wand works well. This way a fresh one can be used each time.

In the decant it reminds me of Scherezade, which is one of my favorite GC's, with a bit of Smut. It starts out perfect and then kinda fades. The way it fades reminds me a lot of how fresh Scherezade fades. After 3 hours it's barely there and I have to reapply. I can't wait to see how this ages!

Wet: Cinnamon and coffee. It reminds me of El Dia de los Reyes without the chocolate. Dry: A latte with a lot of cinnamon. Still reminding me of El Dia de los Reyes but (without the chocolate) and creamier. Very yummy!

Wet: It reminds me a lot of Gingerbread Poppet, just lighter. I do smell something sweet in it. Dry down: Red Hots layered on top of Gingerbread Poppet. Dry: Gingerbread Poppet plus an earthy pumpkin smell. I still smell a little bit of a sweet juice.

TAL's Lionheart helped break a very bad depression for me. Just keeping a vial of it with me all the time helps.

My new bottle of Black Lace is pretty much exactly how I remembered my decant smelling when I first got it (during the original release of Black Lace). The aged decants have AMAZING staying power- I put it on at the beginning of work one day and 9+ hours later when I got home it was still very much there!

I like it but it's too light and fades too fast! I'm hoping that if I let my decant age for awhile that might help it. It reminds me of a lighter version of Dream of the Fisherman's Wife.I like it but it's too light and fades too fast! I'm hoping that if I let my decant age for awhile that might help it.
