Kind of smells like oak to me, but must be the sprucewood. I'm getting the woods with salty water. Very fitting for the title.

Soft, powdery rose, kind of sweet with some resin's thrown in. A little too much myrrh for me, but overall not bad for a rose blend.

Soap. Nice rose soap. Normally this isn't something I'd wear, but I'm finding this rather pleasant today. Maybe the amber is making this wearable.

Ergghh, white chocolate. I strongly dislike the lab's white chocolate note, and the coconut is not helping matters for a change. Smells fake and unpleasant. Not for me.

Sharp tobacco flower, strong and perfumey with a touch of musk. There's something appealing here under all the musky perfume, but it's mostly unpleasantness on me.

Kind of musky and acrid at first, with a touch of cookies, or something sweet. A bit of an odd one. Turns into red musk, incense and honey.

Fresh and citrusy at first. Turns into a resiny, musky blend, which is light. I really like this!

This smells musky, comfy and sexy on me. A bit too perfumey, but certainly wasn't what I was expecting!

Sweet tea and something herbal, kind of like smoky vetiver. Changes into a nice fresh tea.

I love me some black musk, which I'm getting here. After a bit some spices come out. I really like this one, but I wish it was a teeny bit sweeter.

Strong tea and musk at first. Not very sweet. The citrus comes into play, and turns into a fruit. I like the wet stage the best, but it turns into something not very pleasant on me.

Fruity tea, then turns into a dusty fruit. Doesn't last, and barely there while it does.

Acrid, planty and medicinal. This one is pretty bad on me.

Medicinal at first, then turns into a soft blue powder.

This is somewhere between Lick It Softly and Lick It Vigorously. I have both as bottles, so don't need any more. I LOVE Lick it Softly, and I use LIV for when I have a cold, as it clears my nose most excellently. Everyone should have one of these Lick it series...

Sweet, flowery, musky with a bit of incense. Although it's sweet, it's not overpowering, and it smells a bit like there's some red musk. This reminds me a bit of Voodoo Queen.

This is golden apple candy, the kind that you find in old fashioned candy stores in rebuilt ghost towns. I'm not a big apple fan, as it reminds me of shampoo, but this one isn't too bad.

I'm not having much luck with these new lunacies. This one is just plain bad on me, it shrieks, high pitched and unpleasant. Luckily it fades fast.

Unpleasant. I'm getting vetiver and musk. Blech.

Sharp tobacco and smoke, not notes I like, but the added spices make this a more wearable. Nice for a change, but no need to upgrade.

Fruity floral, citrusy orange and bright.

I'm getting sweet woods, maybe cedar? This is like walking through the forest in summer, with heat bringing out the oils in the woods.

Same yummy red musk. I love this and have a bottle from a previous year, even though I find it rather masculine. It's very similar to Crowley, but without the leather. eta: Krampus 2015. Yum yum yum...still Crowley's sophisticated older brother. Ultimate dude blend.

Anything with melon in it is nauseating to me. This one, unfortunately is melon dominant, and although there are other notes, this one screams at me. Yuck.

I just have to sing my praises for Snow White 04. I love Snow White, I first bought the 07 version, and I think 04 and 07 are the best, but 04 even surpasses 07, and that is something. I'm getting vanilla and flowers, but it is not a warm scent, it's rather crystalline. Though I find it not warm, it is inviting, and I LOVE this oldest version of a classic. Amazing. eta SW 2014 version: I find it interesting that people seem to get so many different scent impressions of SW. I find they fall into two categories to me. Fresh and aged cool and warm, and they vary in between in what I'm assuming is batch variations. 14 is somewhere in between, it is warm/cool, touch of sweet snow, flowers, and teeny tropical vibe. I stick to my guns and say 04 and 07 are the best, but they are all so close, you can never go wrong with Snow White.
