This was a freebie with my last order and I'm so glad, cause I probably wouldn't have chosen it myself and I love it! I can't keep sniffing my wrists. It started off very berry on me, but not too sweet like Bewitched. (I'm glad to know I like juniper.) It didn't take long to dry down and for the berry to be balanced with a minty aquatic note. I'm still unsure about mint, but what it does in this blend is amazing. After reading the description when I smell this I think of deep/still pools in streams. The best and most dangerous part of wading.

I got an imp of this as a gift. I didn't really notice the cinnamon until I started reading reviews. Wet this is all rose, wet rose. As it dries the cinammon starts to come through, but it fades quickly and the rose scent turns a little dusty. I can totally picture my the roses my dad used to grow, just past prime, with Japanese beetles all over them. I'll also second the rose sachet. This is definetly rose sachet. If I liked rose I imagine I'd love this.

In the bottle: This stuff smells exactly like maraschino cherries. It took me a while to figure out what that was. Wet: It instantly turns spicy on my skin. (And it stung a little on my neck, but not on the wrists.) As it dries it morphed a lot. The fireplace smoke was battling with the pipe smoke and the cherry smell. Close up it smelled really smokey, but in wafting distance it smelled like syrup. It's the next day, I've applied three other scents since then and still all I smell is Hearth. It's a nice cozy smell. It reminds me of Meeting on Christmas morning, in front of the fire with red leather chairs. To be fair, I'm not sure if I would have gotten that without the description. I didn't think I was going to like this but it's a very nice winter scent.

Ok, I don't get much carnality from this, but I can't stop smelling my arm. The mandarin and fig blend perfectly on my to create a nice warm, spicy, sweet scent. It smells exactly like the Harvest Spice tea my friends and I drank in high school. I could be sitting on my advisor's couch right now with all of them. I have to order imps for my friends and probably a 5ML for myself.
