Quick Note Reviews:
(first impressions from each blend, put on the waitlist for reviewing due to r/l stuffs.)
Blood- nice in the bottle. Turns much too sharp and heavy on me.
Gluttony ... turned into an market of dried fruit and nuts.
Hetairae- same effect as Gluttony
Fallen- not my scent.
Forbidden Fruit- gentle, same synthetic smell as most perfumes but loses completely with my chemistry.
Jezebel- same effect as Hetairae ;-;
Port-au Prince - medicinal.. like the brown liquid i put on for cuts and minor wounds. Takes too long to smell like chocolate.
