Tiger Lily

[devilot]

A feisty bouquet of golden, warm, gently honeyed lilies.

Tiger Lily
In the vial: A sweet floral. I don't know anything about tiger lilies, the flowers themselves, but this is definitely a sweet floral.

Wet: Same as in the vial, sweetly floral.

Drydown: Less sweet than before, and now the florals are amping up. Also a powdery edge creeping in.

Verdict: This is a nice perfume if you like more traditional and/ or floral perfumes. I can see why folks were dismayed when this was discontinued, but this isn't a "me" kind of scent. I hope this finds a better home!

In the imp and wet on my skin, all I got was a very faint floral. Then after it warmed and dried, the lilies just popped. The beautiful honeyed lilies smell wonderful!

Exactly what it says on the tin: Honeyed lilies. On my skin, LILIES!!! Yeah, this probably won't end well.

This one is gorgeous.

 

All lilies in the imp, but upon application becomes exactly what it says. A warm, honeyed lily. After several hours on my skin, the lily dies down a lot, and leaves me with a wonderfully warm, not cloying honey smell.

 

This reminds me a bit of O, though less creamy, and without the babypowdered amber - the lilies seem to give it a similar warmth.

Disappointed finding that this was DCed. It's really, really lovely.

The great imp backlog is being worked on....

 

Oh My! It smells just like a lily on a warm sunny day. Was sad to see it was discontinued. I will have to put a call out for random imps floating about.

I get the lilies up front. It is nice and warm, but then it gets soapy on me.

Wet: Lily is a weird scent on me - it does this sort of "wet cardboard" thing for the first little while. This is like wet cardboard with honey on it. Honey improves everything, as it turns out, it's not half-bad, even at this stage.

 

 

Dry: Sweet, honeyed lily, as described. I quite like it! It's maybe not my favourite, due to the half hour of smelling like wet cardboard I had to endure to get here, but I can see how others without that particular skin chemistry fail would love this and be sad that It's been discon'd.

The Lab's awful jasmine stamen note in the bottle, but fortunately that doesn't reach my wrist. Goes on as a nice lily. It starts becoming a little powdery, though, and then vagues out into a more generic floral. It's pretty, but I think Lilium Inter Spinas is a better lily note.
