Rock the protester cliché! This is a filthy friggin' patchouli, dark, deep, rooty, and strangely sexy, with cocoa absolute, tobacco absolute, and bourbon vanilla. Whoa! That is some incredibly dirty patchouli! They weren't kidding! Wow, it smells like being in the soil area of a home and garden store. Sadly I can't smell much else from this one. It is just so dusty and dirty.
-
This one is quite nutty on me. Normally the smell of hazelnuts or walnuts make me sick, but this isn't quite the same... It kinda smells like a honey, nutty dessert. This really is my first scent with nuts that I don't absolutely feel sick smelling! Sadly, I just can't do nuts. I never got sick from this one, but the nuts just overpowered all other notes.
-
Cacao absolute, hay, black pepper, patchouli, and incense ash. This smells like there should be black musk in here. A powderiness that just doesn't smell good on me with some woodiness.
-
On the skin: Very pretty! Grapefruit and honey! Can't smell much of anything else. This is actually very nice!
-
On the skin: Eeeeeep.... I am getting pretty much all dark musk. Powderiness with a bit of herbalness. Not for me at all.
-
On the skin: Hmmmm, I can't smell much. It is just so musky and elusive. Kinda sour too. Almost a sour lime musk. Definitely not for me.
-
Vetiver just doesn't work on me normally, so we'll see how this goes. On the skin: Oh, that is some earthy vetiver. It fades a tiny bit after application and allows me to smell a bit of the snake oil, but not much. I was really hoping the vetiver wouldn't be quite so pronounced.
-
On the skin: Those are some yummy yummy cupcakes. Oh, wow! After a bit I start getting a hint of cough syrup. *no skin chemistry, no!* *sigh* I just can't wear this one.
-
On the skin: Sugar vanilla with an alcohol tinge. Reminds me quite a bit of how black lace started out on me. This scent turns floral really quickly on me. Pretty white floral with that alcohol tinge still. Just not for me. *sigh*
-
This is lovely! On the skin: Slightly green and golden scent. Slightly floral, but it just seems mostly golden to me. Very sad this one was discontinued because it is just very pretty!
-
Whoa! This one is awesome! I accidentally spilled a bit of this one on me while decanting and I was happy! It smells like.... musky honey with a bit of sweet orange. Exactly as crebbsgirl said! O plus orange! O isn't one of my favorites, but this one is awesome!
-
On the skin: Sharp green fir needles. This reminds me almost exactly of the evergreen scent from the Soaring over California Disneyland ride! Wow, I miss Disneyland... After a bit, this scent turns a bit sweeter. Drop of honey? Really interesting. Definitely keeping this one around!
-
On the skin: Lovely scent! I can't smell this one when I sniff my arm up close, but I seem to catch the scent better further away. Definitely a white scent. Lovely lovely florals that make me think of high end soap. Beautiful.
-
On the skin: Sweet scent. Raisins? Why do I think raisins? Or maybe that's cherry.... Either way, it is a dark, sweet fruit with a thick drizzle of sugar sauce. Yes, sugary fruit. That is definitely it. Not for me.
-
On the skin: Hello, anise! And almond. Two of my worst enemies. Kinda herby licorice/almond. I knew this one wouldn't turn out well on me, but I had to try it anyways...
-
On the skin: Definitely a purple slightly sour scent. Very musky. Not for me at all.
-
On the skin: Pine needles and cotton candy. Weeeeeird. Kinda a lighter scent than I thought it would be. Pine needles fade pretty quickly and the cotton candy takes over completely. Huh, I might keep this one around for a bit. Not sure if it is really my thing though.
-
2011 version: On the skin: Spicy with a bit of sweetness! I like it! It does become a bit... acidic after awhile. Kinda woodsy too. -ETA- Hmmmm, this smells a little off to me nowadays. The rose isn't blending quite as well with the other notes and is starting to smell a little rotten on my skin. The rest of the notes are lovely, but the rose just isn't working for me anymore.
-
On the skin: Green leaves and.... mint? I can tell this one isn't for me. Very interesting though!
-
Hmmm, orris is a death note for me, but we'll see how this goes! On the skin: Sweet apple. Yummy! Becomes a bit tarter as time goes on. Kinda tasty really! Need to try this one again.
-
On the skin: A sweet pumpkin! Makes me think of an iced pumpkin yummy of some kind. With a hint of fruitiness? That is slightly unexpected. After a bit, the pumpkin fades and I am mostly getting a yummy fruity vanilla. Hmmmmmm, I am liking this one more than I expected to...
-
On the skin: Woodsy! A sweet woodsy! A sweet slightly nutty wood scent. I keep smelling BPAL's tobacco sweetness in this one. Hazelnut? Definitely not what I was hoping for. I was definitely looking for more linen and vanilla rather than woods and nuts.
-
On the skin: Smells like green plant stalks. Is that what marigolds smell like? *whew* Not sure why, but this one makes me feel nauseous...
-
On the skin: Definitely a purple scent. Dark, tart and slightly fruity. Florals start to take over soon after. Definitely not for me.
