    Yemaya

    This is honeydew melon. It was honeydew when I smelled it in the imp. It was honeydew as I put it on me. It stayed honeydew drying down. And remained honeydew when dry. I get no other noews from this, but honey dew. My Honey likes honeydew...but I'm not sure if he wants\ to smell it on me!

    Katharina

    Imp: Orange blossom! This reminds me of Florida. Wet on Me: More Orange blossom with some hints of green behind it. Drying Down: Still lovely orange Blossom now with the barest whiffs of apricot teasing me. Dry: The orange blossom has the sharper note and the apricot gives it a sweet whisper. I don't get any of the white musk out of this in my nose. This is lovely. Keeping the imp!

    Fae

    Imp: Lovely Peach & bergamot Wet on Me: more peach & bergamot but not overwhelming. Drying Down: Smells like what I thought a faery would smell like. Light fruit and citrus and barest floral with a tiny hint of the musk peeing thru. Dry: Quieter now, but not gone. Ethereal. Much like I would imagine a faery to flit in and out around you, the scent does the same to me. I love this. Must keep. Bottle worthy!

    Hay Moon

    Bottle: Hay & grass on first sniff. Like a grassy meadow in late summer Wet on Me: Lovely grass and hay with the amber quietly coming out to play.

    Thirteen (13): June 2008

    Preface: I'm not a foodie much when it comes to wearing scents. Bottle: Rich chocolates with hint of apple Wet on Me: When I inhale, first I get the chocolates, then the apple, then the barest caress of honeysuckle. Drying Down: Now the spicey notes come out to play. So I get a spicy apple-y chocolate goodness. Dry: Sweet & lovely but not overly sweet. I am so glad this did not come off too foody on me. This is rich and dark with the fruit, flower and spices helping to make this a complex lil number. I'm liking this lil number.

    Umbra

    Imp from a friend: Imp: Deep, Dark incense first and then cedarwood Wet On Me: now the Cedarwood and then the dark incense of patchouli Drying Down: Still cedarwood first and then the lovely dark incense Dry: I smell mostly just the cedarwood now. There is an underlying scent trail of the patchouli with it. No sign of the other 2 notes tho. They made for the hills. Btw...the throw and stay of the scents with cedarwoods are phenominal! This is a nice to have imp.

    Rakshasa

    Imp from a friend Imp: Smells like my local witch shop! YUM! Wet On Me: Not so much like my fave witch shop any more. Rose now, Nice sharp rose, not overly sweet rose. Almost an aquatic rose scent over incense. Drying Down: It's turned to harsh air freshener rose now to my nose. Dry: Powder Room Rose. Boo! Even the incense is gone now. In the initial sniff I had really high hopesm but now after it's dry not so much for me. This goes in the re-home pile for sure.

    The Black Tower

    Imp from friend Imp: Ozone! and herbal-y! Wet on Me: Ozone and leather! And ghost whisper of ivy. Drying Down: Leather first and then the woods come out to play bringing the burnt grasses with them. Dry: Leathery woods with ivy and grasses. And the ozone comes back into the background. This is an interesting scent. I'm on the fence about it. Not sure if I like or dislike it. Or if it will hit the rehoming pile.
