Imp-encased: Even with the cap on, Dragon's Blood seems to be poised to burst out of the glass in a diabolical concoction of (what smells like) cherries and something else I can't quite put my finger on. And lo! The cap is removed to release a warm wave of berries and bottled life.
Wet: A warm, spiced fruit wine, euphoric and sweet. I can almost taste the flavour empowering me.
Drydown: More intense. I can imagine this fluid pulsating and pumping through the veins of a dragon in huge, powerful torrents of mmm... It's warm and golden-smelling; if I close my eyes I feel like I'm floating in it, in a heady globe of delicious roundness, as if I'm in the womb.
Dry: It gradually becomes more fruity and resinous, and there's still that heat and yum-factor that I noticed before
This definitely is a favourite. It sometimes deceptively fades in and out, and just when I think it's gone, it warms up again and reminds me it's still there. I think it works better when my skin is warm, because when I woke up, I could smell it violently, but when I was colder, I almost couldn't smell it at all.
I love the way it's so bold and daring. It makes me want to do something wicked!
