Feral, shaggy musk, cypress-wet, gnashing with agarwood, black pine needles, and balsam.

Black cherry blood globs over a thick crust of patchouli.

No additional scent description.

Rich cacao, woods, and dark fruits. The oudh here just adds to the dark fruits, and is not very oudh-like. In fact, can forget there's oudh in this blend. Medium throw and wear length.

Pine, wood, honeyed beeswax, and a whiff of juniper. This seems to be teetering between piney woods, and this caramel honey. Warm, sticky, golden. Good throw and wear length.

Fresh-cut grass and chalky drywall with the indole tang of something clammy underneath.

This is just as horrible as all the other reviews have made it sound. Truly, crappy diaper, pukey baby powder. No grass, only oudh. This is what horror and despair smell like. It's like Vampire Lace grew up, bought a house, and then DIED INGLORIOUSLY. Great throw and wear length. Imma go wash this off.

Tomato leaf, mahogany, benzoin, and a whiff of cardamom. This is a masculine "green" blend. I get a very prominent tomato leaf note, and its fresh, but very bitter in this blend and I think its a by product of the mahogany wood and patchouli. There's some resinous benzoin that is spiced with cardamom. Its cozy, green, and masculine tomato leaf. Good throw and wear length.

Jasmine, orchid, green tea. Actually, it sort of reminds me to a butterfly bush. This is a spring-like florals, lightness, and cuddly blend. Great throw and wear length.

Dusty cardamom, honey, vanilla, and tobacco. Actually, this smells like it should be at home in the Wild West, and not the Shungas. Or maybe its a Japanese interpretation of a Annie Oakley or Calamity Jane? It's got that sort of rough and tumble overlay. Great throw and wear length.

Pink grapefruit, sugared yuzu, and sunshine. It doesn't have great wear length, but IDGAF. When its there, its happy and glorious and what I need these days. Delicious.

Almond, bourbon cream, smoky hay. This has a burnt sugar edge to it which is delightful and unexpected. Oddly hovering toward the gourmand edge. Medium throw and wear length. So far, this may be my favorite 2021 Luper.

Juicy lychee and peonies. Very strong on the lychee/peony. It's sugary, floral, and fruity. Medium throw and wear length.

Musk, chypre, and smoke. This one to me smells mainly of a red musk and chypre, with other notes to make it more multi-dimensional. Good throw and wear length.

Ivy, moss, green. It dries to a matcha, hay and a whiff of fern-moss. This one is very green tea, fresh, gender-neutral. Its got moss, green, and a subtle sexiness to it. Medium throw and wear length.

No additional description provided. Scent description for Sin is here.] I got mainly Snow White plus cinnamon and a dash of sandalwood. It was very chilly snowy but with cinnamon. Good throw and wear length.

Peach black pepper champagne

No additional scent description.

With Belgian chocolate and a dusting of nutmeg.

Salzburg 20 degrees We are waiting for the krampuslauf to begin. Lilith wanted a photo of the three of us. I love them them with all my heart and soul. Lavender musk, a bit of Dorian, a smidge of Snake Oil, birchwood, leather, and snow.  Oh, Salzburg. You smell like snow, lavender, bits of Dorian and a whiff of birch and incense. Overall, I imagine this is what snowed on Barrial family members smells like. It's cheery, familiar, and definitely wintery. It's a very happy smell, and you can tell that this is a blend that was made with a heart full of joy based on memories full of joy. Medium throw, good wear length. If you ever wanted to borrow someone's happy memories of a Christmas vacation, use this. It will put a smile on your face.

Snake Oil with sugar, honeycomb, and thick vanilla cream.

Snuggly spicy sandalwood. Fuzzy brown musk. Medium throw and wear length.

Smoky woody honey. Definitely a masculine honey. Good throw and wear length.

A dusty, dry woody scent that manages to be surprisingly flamboyant: white sandalwood, violet leaf, orris root, cardamom pod, and Texas cedar.

Licorice, ash, and a touch of both wood and wool. This one smells like a sweater that has spent ALOT of time with a leather jacket. Somewhat masculine. Great throw and wear length.
