On me this smells like..... Spiced berry cake (heavy on the spiced). After a bit, the spices take over and that is all I can smell. These spices are very heavy and in your face. Kinda hurt my nose.... I am so glad that I don't love this scent due to its rarity!
-
This scent was heavy on the nuts on my skin. A nutty fruit. I am afraid that I don't like nuts one bit, so this scent really didn't work for me...
-
Reminds me a little of Fearful pleasure... Only Mabon is..... I get the lovely apple cider with what I am guessing is the apple blossom. Truly a yummy, yet beautiful scent! Wow!

2009 version So, I put this on to test right before the SO got home. When he walked in and came to give me a hug, without any prompting, he told me "Mmmmm, you smell good!". Without any prompting!! Wheeee! So, on me this scent is very perfumey and not something the SO normally likes. It's almost, foody incensey? If that makes any sense? Lovely and a definite keeper! This scent lasts forever and doesn't change much for me from application to drydown.
-
Hmmmm, this one didn't work as well on my skin as I had hoped. On me, this scent loses any hint of pumpkin and is primarily coffee and spices. It is nice, but I was hoping for a bit more pumpkin.... I think that I will stick to Bah! for my coffee needs.
-
On the skin: Wow, that is musk! Musk, sweet spices, and sandalwood. Very nice! Also, this scent lasts FOREVER! This one is a very high scent. There is no depth to it. If there were a few notes that made this scent a bit deeper, it would probably become one of my ultimate favorites. It will still go on my Love It list though. Definitely bottle worthy!
-
On the skin: Wow, I am getting a lot of creamy lemon from this one. Must be the ginger in disguise. It is very light. I am not sure how I feel about this one yet.... Very unobtrusive.
-
In the imp: sweet, yet very dark. On the skin: It.... disappeared? Was not expecting that due to the strong scent in the imp. Maybe something is wrong with my nose. I can still smell a slight dark floral (black orchid?), but for the most part this scent has vanished on my skin. I am going to go get a second opinion really quick.... Well, the SO says that it smells spicy and that he likes it a lot! I will have to test it again to see if I can smell it better, but overall I think that this one might be a winner!
-
On the skin: Blackberry jam, honey, and.....? VERY foodie. Pretty nice though! The SO isn't around to give his opinion, but as a foody lover, I think it would be near the top of his list. Doesn't change much to dry down. Thankfully, I never get any of the almond.
-
This one is just... amazing! Sweet, creamy, lovely! It is so soft on my skin, and I don't think that it gives off much of a throw. I think of it as more of a personal comfort scent. I think the SO will love this one because of its vanillaness.
-
Wow! This one smelled so.... foody? Very strange. On the drydown it becomes kind of bitter. Must be the chestnuts... The wet phase is yummy, but the drydown stage? Not so much.
-
Oh, my! This blend is AMAZING! On the skin: There is something in here that is also in Osiris v4..... Something smooth and woodsyish. This blend to my nose is gorgeous and drop dead sexy! Would be perfect on my SO (I hope!)
-
In the bottle: Resiney cake!! Soooooo nice! Immediately on the skin: This blend turns into buttered popcorn. Strange. If I take my nose away from my wrist and just let the scent waft, I get more of the yummy resiney cake smell. Drying: Popcorn goes away!! Whoooo! Again, it is resiney/incensey cake. Sooooo good!
-
Wow! Cologne and leather! It is different than Sacrifice, but kinda the same idea in my opinion. This scent has more of the cologne smell than Sacrifice though. This isn't half bad and could smell excellent on the right SO.
-
On the skin: This is supposed to smell like rotting fabric and mold? It smells very... green to me. Kinda smokey as well. I don't really like green scents, but this actually doesn't smell anything like the description. I agree with Forspecial Plate!
-
On the skin: Incense, ozone, and ..... ? Reminds me of Countess Dolingen with a bit of incense.... I am afraid that the aquatic ozoneness doesn't really work for me.
-
Oh, my! This scent is a beautiful, sophisticated rose. I really like this one! The strong floral does give me a bit of a headache at the beginning. Might just be because I am sniffing it too much. It doesn't change much on the dry down. Skin musk is one of my favorite notes, but sadly I could barely discern it in this blend.
-
Whoa! Aquatic overload! I don't normally like aquatics, so bear this in mind... On the skin: At first there is just too much aquaticness. When it starts drying, I get more of the wintery notes that I was hoping for. Underneath the aquatic note that I still smell, there is a lovely blend of what I guess is cypress and cold snow. In the end, this one just doesn't entirely work on me...
-
I don't normally like blends with red musk, so we shall see.... On the skin: Definitely getting lots of red musk and clove. Kinda also smell some pine? Not really my thing..... It turns kind of sharp on me.
-
Oh, wow! This scent is amazing!! On the skin: sweet, subtle goodness! It is such an innocent scent. This doesn't smell like floral scents normally do... So nice!
-
Hmmmm, smells very candyish. In fact, on my skin it smells like the Strawberry Bubbilicious (sp?) gum. Not really what I was hoping for. Definitely interesting though.
-
Okay, I received a decant of this awhile ago, tried it on, and put it into the swap pile. Well, now I just received a partial bottle and decided to give it another chance and Wow! A lovely honey musky amber. It is amazing and I have no idea why it didn't smell so good before! -EDIT- The only drawback is that this scent stays very close to the skin...
-
This one is quite strange... I put it on my skin and could barely smell a thing! Now, I get wafts of a marvelous sweet resiny scent, but every time I sniff close to my write, I can't smell anything! Really strange, but quite lovely.
-
In the bottle: Smoky pumpkin. I don't normally like smoky scents, but this is pretty good! On the skin: Smoke fades really quickly. Now it is pumpkin and clove. So good! Wow!! This one might actually have beaten out Pumpkin V for my favorites of the pumpkins this year. Sooooooo good!
-
In the bottle: Pumpkin and tea rose.... On the skin: Pumpkin and a sweet floral wood. I don't normally like rosewood. This is interesting, but definitely not me. Pumpkin and sweet floral? Definitely..... different. -EDIT- Uh, oh. There is something in this blend that is making me feel really nauseous..... Ick!
