    Amoretti LXXV

    A great and golden love: immortal, undying, infinite. A love brightly burned into the stone of eternity: golden amber and scarlet musk, black vanilla absolute, red apple, Siamese benzoin, and sweet fig.

    Kisses for Us All

    Honey-sweet and thick with blood: red roses and honey, a throb of red musk, bitter neroli and clove husk all staining a slash of sheet-white vanilla sandalwood.

    A bounty of butter, honey, and sweet cream.

    Vintage Frankenstein Blow Mold

    A shell of milky plastic surrounding a puff of mint chocolate chip-scented air, illuminated from within by 40 watts of glowing amber.

    Jacob with the Daughters of Laba

    Louis Gauffier Lebanese cedar, chamomile, frankincense, and cinnamon. This starts of as cedar, and frankincense with a whiff of cinnamon. As it dries, the chamomile comes out, and its a chamomile-cedar blend, with hints of resin. Medium throw and wear length. This one is sort of manly to me.

    Russet dried maple leaves crunching around a jack o’lantern splashed with bay rum, curling with cigar smoke.

    Altarpiece - No1 - Group X

    A prism of sacred frankincense refracting a golden amber light into a spectrum of daemonorops draco, King mandarin, golden oud, verdant moss, blue tansy, indigo vegetal musk, and wild plum.

    Like the Very Gods

    Shuddering, sweat-warmed skin gleaming with sheer musk, honeyed olive blossoms, vanilla cedar, white sandalwood, and orris butter.

    Orb Weaver Spider

    East African black patchouli, lilac, lavender, Italian neroli, King mandarin, Terebinth pine, and star anise. This is such an interesting patchouli blend On wet, its mainly lavender, lilac and citrus (from the neroli and mandarin). And as it dries, the patchouli comes out... and it dries to a citrusy patchouli blend. I'd recommend this to anyone who was afraid of patchouli. It's citrusy, light and clean.

    Sentence First, Verdict Afterwards

    Off with her head: white roses, tea roses, climbing roses, blood red roses, and a cluster of thorns, blood-spattered and sword-sharp, with clove bud and tobacco flower.

    La Toussaint

    La Toussaint is a scent for All Saints' Day: falling leaves, crushed maple, bouquets of bright chrysanthemum, frankincense, white chamomile, and pale, dry wood bark. Un parfum pour la Toussaint: feuilles tombantes, érable broyé, bouquets de chrysanthèmes brillants, d'encens, de camomille blanche et d'écorce de bois claire et sèche. La Touissant has an intense green edge to it - I think its the leaf and maple. I get a bit of mum, chamomile and frankincense. It's greener than I thought, and leafier, but again, very autumn-esque. Good throw and wear length.
