    Changing the Shadows

    This one is lovely. As another reviewer mentioned, I can't really pick out individual notes while it's on, it is blended so well. Warm, lush, perfumey. It actually reminds me of the First of the Three Spirits though I can't pinpoint why (maybe just the sweet fruity warmth). I wish I had full bottles of both, as they would work well year-round. While it's still winter, though, this scent is a definite pick-me-up. Has great staying power.

    The Soldier

    Wet, this scent made me very nervous because it was so sharp and seemed like it could go any number of questionable ways. However, on the dry down it evolved into a sexy red, musky incense-y scent and I couldn't stop sniffing myself! Hot stuff, this is! (I was surprised!) I don't think I get many of the sweeter notes (pie, vanilla) but that's a-okay with me.

    Klara

    Definitely similar to Alice - very lovely, light, girly, and disappears into a "second skin" kind of scent where even though you smell delicious, it seems like that is just how you smell but better. Whereas Alice fades more quickly, Klara is slightly deeper and richer, and lasts much longer. Alice smells more like a baby and Klara more of a "girl" if that makes any sense.

    A Cold, Clear Winter Day

    This smells like Snow Moon on me. Very menthol-pine-snow, unfortunately sharp. I like it to a point but then stop because it gets obnoxious on my skin. I wish I got more of the floral aspect.

    The First of the Three Spirits

    Gorgeous, warm scent. It is actually fairly similar to Changing the Shadows on me, somehow, and both vaguely remind me of Lolita Lempicka (I know other users have mentioned Angel or Chance). It is very "perfume" smelling but in the best way! Definitely a year-round staple. Great lasting power. I wish I had a full bottle!

    The Waltz of the Snowflakes

    This is a beautifully sweet, creamy Snow White with mint on me. I don't get any evergreen notes. Surprisingly lasts very well on even though it's pretty delicate, which is good because I'm addicted! One of my favorite Yules this year.

    Ether

    This started out as a light, clean citrus-floral, and after about an hour morphed into a delightful Snow White-esque sweet, dusty air. Since Snow White is a personal favorite, I'm happy to have a similar scent that's more suitable for warm weather. This is very light, wispy, and beautiful - for me it evokes a sunny summer day, with white linens drying on a line outside or a pale blonde girl in a white dress. It's youthful and wistful. I wish it were a little stronger, but its lightness is true to the idea of the scent. I think I might look into a 5ml for this one eventually.

    Baron Samedi

    A notorious voodoo priest, who eventually rose to become one of the funereal Guédés, alongside Baron Cimitère and Baron La Croix. He is a Guardian of the Crossroads: the pathways between our world and the realm of the spirits. As a Master of the Graveyard, he ensures that burial rites are performed with skill, and he helps ferry souls to the dark realm. In his honor, we have created this scent: our spin on traditional Bay Rum. In the bottle this is a delicious spiced almond rum - one of my favorite kinds of scents. On, all I get is clove. A little disappointing to only get this note when the rest is so promising, but luckily I adore clove! I like to wear this when I'm feeling a little dark & sinister but don't want a really 'heavy' scent. This will be great for fall!

    Siren

    I just received this as a frimp, which is lucky, since I probably wouldn't have tried it on my own. In the bottle: a very watered down Ravenous. Wet on skin: FRUIT OVERLOAD, and strangely enough - I LOVE IT. Fruity perfumes aren't normally my forte, but I would love for it to stay like this. A really rich, magnetic, spicy & tropical apricot bubblegum. Beautiful. I couldn't stop smelling my wrist. Dry on skin: It's calmed down a lot, playing up the patchouli-ish note that reminded me of Ravenous. The vanilla has further softened it, resulting in a creamy citrus patchouli. The ginger is very light, but perfectly blended. I don't smell the jasmine. Definitely a keeper! If only it lasted longer...
