TallGrrl78 Report post Posted December 23, 2016 Black tea, myrrh, smoked vanilla, and licorice root. First review! I love this scent. It's basically licorice Dorian atmo spray. The licorice and myrrh come out at first but then as the scent dries down and wears so to speak, you get the tea and vanilla more. It's so comforting. I like to spray my atmos on scarves, sweatshirts, etc. I will be purchasing a backup bottle. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
annemathematics Report post Posted January 22, 2017 bpal's tea note often smells a touch anise-y to my nose, so to combine it with the licorice just amps the oomphy gloriousness of the licorice. the myrrh feels polished and the vanilla flutters about, swirling prettily with the licorice forming dreamy gothic scent-stripes. this is beautiful. an absolute stunner. bright and smooth and light and joyful. I wish it came in alllll the formats, so I could bath and gloss with it too. possibly my favorite black phoenix licorice-focused scent. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LizziesLuck Report post Posted January 22, 2017 This darker than I expected. The tea is dominant, with just hints of the other notes. I find this tea note a bit lemony, which I was not expecting. I love vanilla and anise, and wish they were more prominent to my nose. The Myrrh is lovely, with the vanilla. I just wish the whole thing was stronger. I think I would enjoy it better in a different format - this does not seem consistent, it smells different on a pillow than it does on my sweater, than it does in the air, and I just can't decide what the think about it.

VetchVesper Report post Posted January 25, 2017 (edited) Mmmmmm.... licorice.... This is less foodie than I was expecting. It's light and spicy and a little bit powdery. The licorice root reminds me of the licorice in Tympandium or the anise in Mary Shelley in that it's sort of cool and dusty. This does have a chilly stone feel to it at first. I must admit, I was kinda wanting ewey gooey vanilla licorice candy, cause even though I don't wear foodie scents much... I don't mind spraying them all over my house and drooling on all my linens. I like this and will enjoy my decant, but I can resist a bottle. Edited January 25, 2017 by VetchVesper Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
patina Report post Posted February 2, 2017 Like the other people have said it's a not really foodie licorice. The tea gives it a floral note. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zankoku_zen Report post Posted February 6, 2017 Vanilla black tea with just a touch of licorice. This one is fainter than I expected. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
