I pick up the lab's snow/winter note in this blend, which is always chilly mint and pine to my nose mixed in with candy, pumpkin, and just a trace of leaves and dirt. I guess I can see the reference to maple syrup as well, though I initially just considered it to be the candy note. I love this blend.

The Pumpkin Princess label is adorable....is that Lilith?
Yes, it appears to be. She looks so cute on it.
I just wish the scent had worked out better for me. Alas...
-
Very powdery. Vanilla musk, roses, and another floral component I can't place. Quite feminine.
-
Smoke, opium, tobacco, resinous. I do agree with the Gun Moll comparison.
-
Herbal flowers and slightly aquatic. Not really to my tastes.

Here's a few of them from right to left:
Halloween: LV (looks like last year's halloween city labels), Pumpkin Princess (how cute is Lilith ), Black Apple of Saturn, Green Apple of Venus, and Autumn Cider

Starts off a little bitter on my skin. As it settles, the wood, linen, and pumpkin rind notes emerge. I really can't smell the bourbon vanilla note in this one. Unfortunately, it's not as creamy as I had hoped it would be on my skin, so I think I may need to pass on this one.
-
Definitely a foody lovers blend. Rich vanilla cake, buttercream frosting, and I also get a bit of marzipan out of it as well. Makes me hungry for a sprinklecake of my own.
-
Bright fruity pumpkin on my skin with red currant and honey. I'm not really getting any chocolate out of this. I don't find this terribly foody and definitely has more of a pumpkin floral vibe to it the longer it dries on my skin.
ETA: Bottle label is darling with Lilith in it.
-
A very dry apple scent on me. The black musk, cypress, and myrrh notes are strongest on me layered over the apple note. The tobacco comes out several minutes after application. From wet to dry, this remains very dry, slightly powdery, and stays close to the skin--not a lot of throw for me.
-
Juicy, spicy apple cider. The orange note gives it just an edge of citrus to it. Just the perfect blend of spices.
-
This one is very bright and fruity on my skin. Lots of green apple, pomegranate, strawberry, and sandalwood on my skin. I get a faint trace of rose, but it's just barely there. Definitely one of my favorite Weenie blends for this year.

Love this blend. It starts out all foody and very much like Cake Smash, but then about 15 minutes into dry down, I get cigarette smoke mingled with the cake scent. I actually hate the smell of cigarettes in reality, but in this blend, it just works. It's now been over 7 hours since I applied it and, while the cigarette smell is gone, I'm still left with this gorgeous soft sweet cake scent on my wrists.
This would have been amazing as a BPTP atmospheric spray. Maybe someday...

Sniffing the bottle, this put me off considerably as it smelled of BPAL's milk note that just doesn't agree with me. On my skin, it's a cross between milky and buttery vanilla on clean cotton. I like it, but not sure I want to keep an entire bottle.
-
On my skin, this is a beautiful blend of roses and opium tar with the leather note emerging after several minutes. The rose is very tempered on my skin and I just love how long it stays on me.
-
If it weren't listed in the notes, I would never believe there is gardenia in this blend.
In the bottle, it's soft, creamy, and sweet smelling, but not cloying. On my skin, I get that same spicy orange creamsicle quality several other have gotten. This blend is just gorgeous and I really need more of it, like now!

Starts out very bitter on my skin. After a couple minutes, I begin to pick up the wood note, but still very bitter scent. Gradually softens on dry down, and I also pick up a dry leather note. By the time it's fully dry, no bitterness remains and I am left with a woodsy, leather, herbal-esque scent.
-
What a lovely fall scent. Lots of spice in this one mingled with leaves, and fruit. Not exactly foodie, but definitely has a gourmand quality to it. Definitely a good embodiment of Fall.
-
Definitely warm and spicy as mentioned above. The cardamom, ginger, peppercorn and licorice root really stand out for me. This was a goblin squirt frimp in my last Trading Post order and I'll definitely being making a full-size bottle purchase soon!
-
This starts out smelling like rubbing alcohol to me too. The alcohol scent fades a little as it dissipates, but it's still there along with a green earthy scent. No leather for me, unfortunately.
-
Coconut and creamy rose on my skin. I really like the way the rose is subdued on my skin. Just a light soft throw.

Wet on my skin, I get that "fizzy pomegranate" note that Aldercy referenced above. I'm definitely picking up the black pepper and oakmoss as well. I actually don't find this to be too masculine on me. The patchouli begins to emerge as it dries further.
Fully dry, the pomegranate, black pepper, and patchouli notes are strongest in that exact order.
I love this scent! I'll have to try to make this one last.
