Wet: Sweet musk. Dry: Really, really light musk. Not so amazing on its own, but I can see how this one would be great for layering! 3/5
-
Wet: Yum! "Warm" and foody. Smells like a slightly sweet cookie fresh out of the oven. Dry: Plastic. .... Wtf?! Really, really disappointed. This was so promising! 1/5

I'm planning on busting out my imp of Fruitcake tomorrow; Christmas is the only time I'll let myself wear it.

Wet: Well, I know what every note in this blend smells like... except peony. So I'm guessing that's what I'm smelling! It's a sweet peony scent. Very nice. Dry: YUM! This is a keeper, for sure. It's a very sweet, peachy floral scent on my skin with a touch of amber. This is a good floral for those who florals usually don't work well on (Read: Me! Florals usually go super soapy on my skin). The scent dries a bit light on my skin, which just means I'll need to slather it. 4/5

Wet: Sharp, sweet patchouli. Dry: This is a sweet patchouli-leather scent on my skin. No vanilla, no honeysuckle, no sarsaparilla. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't bummed out, as this was the NYCC exclusive I was most looking forward to. However, I know a lot of other people would absolutely love this scent. I'll probably give this a few months to see if it changes. If not, then it's off to swaps! 1/5

For the day, I'm wearing Sticky Pillowcase! Tonight, I'll be wearing Punkie Night.

Wet: Sweet, spicy pumpkin and peach. Dry: Super light pumpkin, with a hint of plastic. 2/5
-
Wet: Butter and... soap and plastic? I am not happy. Dry: VERY strong buttery... plastic. Get this off of me! 1/5

This is a creamy, delicious vanilla when you first apply it to your skin (I don't take baths, I just rub a small amount of oil into my skin during my showers). As it dries, the rice flower comes out a bit. It is awesome. If you love vanilla, this is a must have. This easily pairs with a lot of perfumes, as well.

This is a spicy pumpkin pie. Heavy on the pumpkin, and don't expect a dollop of whip cream on top. This is a MUST for pumpkin or foody lovers. It smells delicious, and lingers on your skin for hours. (I don't take baths, so I take a small amount of oil and rub it into my skin during my showers.) Lovelovelove.

I hate strong lavender. This scent, however, is like a big fluffy lavender marshmallow. It's lovely. The oil itself sinks into your skin fairly quickly. It isn't greasy, and the scent lingers for quite a while. Highly recommended.

For Halloween(and Halloween-related events), here's what I'll be wearing: Sticky Pillowcase Fizzy Jack O Lantern Any of the Pumpkin blends Ghoulish Spiked Punch And something blood-related for my costume. Haven't really figured out what though! I need to dig through my massive imp collection. (I'm going as a nurse from Silent Hill.)
-
Wet: Orange and neroli. Dry: Almost non-existant on my skin. I was really hoping to be able to smell an orangey-raspberry tango, but all I can detect now is a hint of neroli. 1/5
-
A big BIG thank you to allidavie for giving me the opportunity to test this! Wet: Spicy caramelized vanilla and... a hint of woods? This is good. This is really, really good. CRAP. Dry: This is gorgeous. I can see why it's so popular! The drydown stays almost exactly the same as the wet stage. This is so, so good. 5/5
-
Wet: Crisp and clean, with a metallic tinge. I dig it! Dry: Citrus and metal. This is YUM on me! A bright, fun scent. I'm super glad I have my imp! 4/5
-
Wet: Sweet and spicy! Almost soapy. Not at all what I was thinking! Dry: Ehhh... this is pretty bland on me. Sweet and milky. It's not a bad scent, it's just not for me. 2/5
-
Wet: Spicy, powdery florals. Is that rose? Uhoh... Dry: Nope, nope, nope. All powder all the time. 1/5
-
Wet: WHOA, that's some strong wood! (.....) But really, it's all I can smell. This may not end well. I amp wood notes like crazy. There is a hint of sweetness in the background, though. Dry: Wood, and chamomile. Not bad, it's just too woodsy for me. 2/5

Highly recommend Clio, if you can find any: "Her scent is the warm, dry parchment of scrolls, lavender for critical thought and analysis, the solidity of heavy woods, ornery patchouli and glib benzoin, and superstar-splashed orange and amber." -
The perfume of a hellbound soul, gleefully lost to iniquity: blood musk, golden honey, thick black wine, champagne grapes, tobacco flower, plum blossom, tonka bean, oakmoss, carnation, benzoin, opoponax, and sugar cane. Wet: Wine! And something slightly floral in the background. Sweet, and lovely. Dry: A faint wine scent. Fruity and yummy, but not unique enough for me to need a bottle. 3/5
-
Wet: Clean, fresh patchouli. I have no idea how that makes sense, but it does. I like it. Dry: Sweet florals, with a hint of patchouli in the background. The best word I have to describe this blend is "haunting". I really enjoy it. 4/5
-
Wet: I have to agree with the above reviewer; "dark pink chocolate" is a PERFECT description for this. Chocolate and dragon's blood smells awesome together, apparently! There's something a tad bit resinous underneath it, that keeps this blend from going too sweet. Dry: The chocolate and dragon's blood are still playing nice. This is definitely DARK chocolate with a splash of dragon's blood. The wet and dry stages are both very similar on me, but the dry stage smells less 'juicy', if that makes sense. Very happy I pulled the trigger on this! 4/5

Wet: Citrus, clean, and floral. Green. Loving it. Dry: This is a bit softer now, but it's lovely. This is a perfect scent for spring. 4/5
-
Wet: Omfg. This is DELICIOUS. Nutty, warm, and delicious. This reminds me of baked goods during Christmas. Dry: Brb, eating my arm off. But really, this is delicious, and a MUST TRY for foody lovers. 4/5
