gah this is intimidating. being the first to review a mysterious tal blend.... :P


in the vial resinous, and a very familiar scent of tal blends. sharp, and well powerful

wet: hmm cedar i believe it is cedary, there is something spicy there too possibly tonka? (ppsssttt did i say this is intimidating?)

as it dries it is mostly resinous but occassionally i get a whiff of smething spicey. it is a powerful scent, i wish i could do it justice but alas i fear i am not. the longer it is on the less "resinous" it is and it becomes somewhat floral i believe gardenia, heady and strong and the hint of light clean soap (in a good way not in a coast way)

my skin really soaked this one up, like a sponge

eta recieved a decanted imp in a swap

Bottle (Imp): Herbs.

 

Just On: Herbs and wood.

 

An hour or two later: More wood than herbs, maybe a hint of musk.

 

Around 6 hours: A bit of musk and woods, not very much left to this.

 

12 hours: Interesting, but not something that seems to power me up.

 

Overall: I'm more inclined to feel powered up from a sweeter scent, but I don't know that scent is the only thing, so this could very well be quite powerful.

 

After reading other reviews, ahem, review: I'd have to agree that there could be cedar in this, and that's appropriate, considering how powerful trees can be.

at first: a dark, earthy note. i don't like it.

on: this is a really bad scent on me. i'm not sure what it is.

half an hour later: fruity and strong. the bad scent seems to be gone, which is good.

1.5 hours later: sweet, but confident.

overall: this is definitely a confidence-inspiring scent.

In Bottle: Sharp and herbal

 

On Skin: This scent is metallic as well. But in a brighter less sweet sense. This one is herbal and sharp, slightly soapy. There is also spice, but it’s in the background. I also smell a smoky woody note. As it dries it becomes quite powdery and the wood note becomes more obvious. As does the spice, I’m thinking it’s cinnamon? I’m also sensing a light floral in the background that sweetens the scent up a little. Pretty, but not really a scent I’d wear. I’m very excited to see if it’s magickal intent works. I really nees to pump up the power in my life. A low to medium throw, and an average wearlength.

Fragrance-wise this smells like cinnamon, a clean white floral, and warm resins. It's really nice and reminds me somewhat of the smell of Hand of Hermes, only less fiery.

 

Generally in use, I put it on the top of my head, and barely notice the smell. But I like to know it's a nice one. I've been using it to boost the effect of other oils in purposes such as luck and dispelling negative energy. It does amplify my feeling of being bad-ass. I like feeling like a bad-ass. I could see wearing this by itself anytime I am feeling a little less confident.

 

It really does smell wonderful. The floral is coming out more and more. It's not soapy, but warm and authoritative. I think I'm going to start wearing it on more than just the top of my head. B)

Smell: Cinnamon, resins, white floral. It's got a nice, pleasant smell. A little heady.

 

I find Power to be an amplifier, and its smell in particular is effective for me. It's strong in a very subtle way, which is sort of the effect you're going for.

 

It's confident, pleasant, and strong.
