    Agrat-Bat-Mahlaht

    No caramel, but i still like it; creamy yet bright; perhaps the apple blossom? Don't love the amber, but it's sutble, so...

    Black Phoenix

    At first I liked the almond scent; nice and subtle. But then, as it dried, it got more incensy. Not for me.

    Tamora

    At first it's nice: peach and vanilla. Then, that fades and the lasting notes are sandalwood, amber, and heliotrope. Yucky.

    Kill-Devil

    Holy moly. You know the smell of burnt sugar when you are trying to make a creme brulee and you screw it up? This is Kill-Devil. Gets stronger and more acrid as the day goes on. Ew.

    Bliss

    Gorgeous; pure chocolate. I like Candy Butcher because of the cream note, but this is great as well. It has a slight plastic note, but it would be divine as a base oil with another BPAL on top.

    Intrigue

    Where is the cocoa? Where is the fig? As usual, my skin pulled the woods notes; all I smell is dark black fairy woods.

    Plunder

    GAG! Red Hotz. Period.

    Sudha Segara

    Nice! Reminds me of something from childhood. Not a scent I would normally go for, yet I find myself sniffing my wrist every five minutes. Creamy and warm with a touch of fresh ginger.

    The Lion

    Amber hates me, I hate amber...This was frimped, so i gave it a go, but no luck.

    Drink Me

    I'm a huge fan of Eat Me, and this is phenomenal as well; more golden and buttery than Eat Me, less juicy fruit than Eat Me; think upsidedown pineapple cake. ADDED Dec. 20: Of course as a fan of Eat Me, I also love Drink Me; very rich and golden, pineapple butterscotch custard cake dream...

    Eat Me

    As a foodie, this scent completely works for me; delicious cakes and currants. Buttercream. Yum.

    Midnight on the Midway (2006)

    Interesting; mostly sugar with the lightest floral; I don't know what a night flower smells like, but the dark yet subtle floral undernote does evoke some imagary; although I didn't think I'd like this because I detest florals, this is kind of nice...

    Midway

    Sweet goodness; take me to the Midway! The funnel cake and taffy is divine... ADDED April 17: Well, I'm confused bc I have two decants from swaps: Midway 07 and Midway 08...? Ah well, here it goes... Miday 07: sweet sugar and plastic; no discernable notes Midway 08: sweet and creamy; kind of like buttercake; but I detect plastic ADDED 4/14/10: I am sad to discover that this goes plastic after five years of aging...

    Beaver Moon 2007

    Wow; this is incredible; I want to dig a fork in to my arm and stab a piece of fruit flavored flesh...orgasmic! ADDED July 15: Orgasmic! Would like more cream/vanilla for a tone down, but the sweet berries are divine... ADDED April 11: This decant is totally a keeper; I love it! I think it smells as good as 2005 version; the delicious buttery cakeness is deepened with the strawberries and cherries; cherries normally make me gag but this is divine!

    Pumpkin I (2007)

    Have I mentioned how lucky I am to have a body that agrees so well with pumpkin? Again, i am loving this scent; all pumpkins smell warm and buttery on me; I wish the notes of the white grape would shine through more, but it's still so wonderful!

    Pumpkin IV (2007)

    I love it, but I don't smell sage or cactus...still smells quite foody and creamy
  17. Andrea912

    Hony Mone

    Gag; very disappointed; my body pulls nothing but the jasmine; I smell like a rotting purple flower. Second try: Wet: the backnotes are nice, but I can't really get to them as the jasmine and carnation is quite strong on me...I really want to like this...will wait for the laydown Final verdict: beautiful honey cream almond base is still covered by the jasmine; floral; sigh...I want to love this but the floral is almost too much...

    Smut

    Wet: whoa; I don't know what to think; it does remind me of a slut, I mean, smut... Dry: I love how this dried down; it's a skin scent, and for once the musk doesn't smell like power on me...different because I love food scents, but this is really nice... ADDED April 17: Wet: incredibly swoon worthy; I normally detest musks, but the sugar and booze is predominant; I want to drink myself and get slutty..er..I mean, smutty!

    Rangoon Riptide

    Wet: fresh pineapple Dry: still just pineapple; very sugary Verdict: I want to like it, but it fades to nothing; I'd have to reapply every other hour...

    Thirteen (13): June 2008

    Wet: I love cocoa blends so much; while Bliss was a bit plastic, this is authentic. Spices and darkness... Verdict: my body takes well to food notes, especially cocoas; thank goodness the frankinscence and sandalwood is toned down, as my body tends to turn to a head shop when those notes are added; I am i love with this scent!

    Scherezade

    Wet: musky incense Dry: the incense died away, which tempted me to keep it; warm oriental spices linger. However, musk just goes to powder on me...and I smell like Arabian baby butt. Verdict: not for me

    Embalming Fluid

    Wet: Elizabeth Arden Green Tea. Clean, fresh; the green tea and lemon is refreshing. Verdict: Nice summer scent; not for me.
  23. Andrea912

    Brimstone

    Bottle: Wow. This is what you should use instead of smelling salts; has a sulphuric note with gunmetal. Acrid. Stings. Verdict: Must put imp away before it implodes. Ew.

    Nero

    Sniff out of empty bottle: dry floral; kind of powdery Don't think I like it much, but if I did, it would be for my man, not me.
  25. Andrea912

    Titus Andronicus

    Wet: all of the above flavors are present; nice blend.. Dry: masculine scent; lots of darkness and spice. Verdict: great for my man, not for me
