    Pumpkin Crème Brulee

    Brown sugar, pumpkin and a swish of eggy custard. I get mainly the caramelized sugar on this with pumpkin. Medium throw and wear length.

    Scarecrow Turned Philosopher

    Hay, wildflowers, autumn breeze and golden amber. This is a very golden afternoon sort of blend. It's got flashes of hay, wildflowers, and breeze wafting over amber. I bet this AGES phenomenally well. Medium throw and wear length.

    The Hare

    Dandelion, grass, fur, and whiffs of honeysuckle and musk. This is a fresh, springy floral with warm fur and I flipping love this. It would be perfect for the spring. Medium throw and wear length.

    A Multitude of Dreams

    Lavender over a base of licorice and benzoin. It smells darker than just lavender. It's lavender and an inky resin on the bottom. Medium throw and wear length.

    Miss Nellie Harding Hair Gloss

    …of No. 100 Clinton place, conducts a first class parlor house, with five lady boarders, who are sociable and entertaining. A sparkle of paste diamonds and a rustle of taffeta: white musk and pale moss, a cluster of peonies, white rose petals, and citrine neroli. This one is a delicate peony and white rose blends, with a slightly taffeta and citrus undertone. It's pretty, pink, and very elegant. Medium throw and wear length.

    The Shield

    Sage, patchouli, touch of vetiver and orris root. This one is mainly a sage-patchouli blend on me. Good throw and wear length.

    Pumpkin Musk and Black Oudh

    Oudh with a touch of pumpkin spices. This one is musky oudh and pumpkin spice. Medium throw and wear length.

    Pomegranate Grove: Dorian

    Pomegranate plus with a touch of Dorian. The Dorian is overwhelmed by the Pom in this for me. Medium throw and wear length.

    Pumpkin Tobacco

    Tobacco, bourbon and a touch of pumpkin. This is mainly a tobacco-bourbon blend on me, with just enough pumpkin to make it autumnal. Medium throw and wear length.

    Illimitable Dominion Over All

    Blood musk, tobacco, and cypress. But really, this is mainly blood musk with hints of tobacco and cypress. Bloody, musky, red. Good throw and wear length.

    It Was Folly to Grieve, or to Think

    Fizzy champagne with notes of orange, peach, and ginger. If you love champagne blends, this one a whirl. Sweet, fizzy, fruity champagne. Medium throw and wear length.

    Dead Leaves, Apricot, Ambergris, and Tobacco

    Apricot, ambergris and a touch of smoky dead leaves. I get mainly apricot sweetness with a touch of watery ambergris over the dead leaves.
  13. This smells like magnolias, chestnuts, and a whiff of dead leaves and incense. This one is a complex incensey/dead leaves, but I get mainly magnolias over the dead leave incense.

    Dead Leaves and Scotch

    Sweet boozy whiskey with a whiff of dead leaves. If you like boozey blends and would like a "fall" version, give this a whirl.

    Dead Leaves, Black Tea, and Tobacco Leaf

    Chewy tobacco and a whiff of dead leaves.

    Dead Leaves and Vanilla Incense

    Dead Leaves, dusty incense and a whiff of vanilla. There's a slight citrus edge I am picking up. It's incensey, perfumey, and dead leafy. Medium throw and wear length.
  17. Moss, vanilla, hint of vetiver and dead leaves. It's got that ozoney sense over it. There's something perfumey about it. Medium throw and wear length.

    Dead Leaves and Coffee Beans

    Coffee, sugared cream, and dead leaves. To me, this is a weird mix, and there's something that ends up almost soapy on me and I think its the sugared cream. Medium throw, and wear length.

    Dead Leaves and Maple Sap

    On wet, this is a very green sap and dead leaves blend with a touch of sweetness. As it dries, the maple sap becomes more prominent, more sugary, and more what I'd call of a maple syrup and the dead leaves recedes a bit. It's quite a foodie/Autumn blend. Good throw and wear length.

    Dead Leaves and Warm Sugar Cookies

    Brown sugar cookie and dead leaves. It dries up to a brown sugar note on me, but it's a pretty sweet Dead Leaf. Medium throw and wear length.
  21. I think I got my Venus bag first? It's definitely one of the oldest conjure bags I own. I've used it for love, self-love, and in general confidence boosts for all sorts of female-related. It's got a very pink energy to it.

    Shoot the Duck

    Polished wood, fig, and a touch of bergamot. There's something here that also carries a whiff of popcorn. Musky, popcorny, woody. It's sweeter than I expected. Medium throw and wear length.

    Three-Fingered Dad

    Ton of red musk, amber and neroli. I am definitely amping up the red musk in this blend. Musky, ambery, neroli. Good throw and wear length.

    Mrs. Bars Hair Gloss

    Agreeable, tidy, and well-kept. She has kind eyes and a merry laugh. A bubble-pop of gaiety: polished teakwood, white musk, sweet benzoin, patchouli, star anise, and wild cherry. I get mainly a polished teak and patchouli with a whiff of anise and cherry. It's very polished, woody, blend. Fancy. Medium throw.
  25. [No additional description provided.] Honestly, this smells of apple candy. Like the green apple Jolly ranchers type. Sweet, candy-like, apple.
