i got a partial of this as a frimp from someone it's very light, very grassy and i definitely smell the dandelion. a very light, pretty summery scent. not something i would wear a lot, but once in awhile i might put it on.
-
ooooh i find this really sexy! it's warm, musky and powdery with a floral that seems closest to orchid to me. it's rosey but in a different way than i associate with most bpal rose scents. it's less crisp and more warm somehow. it is very perfumey, and reminds me of another perfume i've smelled at one time. i quite like it and might try to hunt down a bottle someday.
-
ooh i like this. it's a fresh, light spring floral. very clear and a bit sweet. the violet is subtle and adds a slight powdery touch, the apple blossom adds a touch of sweetness, but it's not TOO sweet. i dont get much rose, if any at all. this floral is very well blended, i cant really pick out the notes that well.

in the imp this smells a bit sharp and sweet with the tobacco to ground it. on my skin i get a semi-masculine musky-powdery scent. not sure what it is but i don't really think it's agreeing with my skin chemistry. i almost feel like there is a slight floral here too, but cant place it. i wish it was more leathery and less powdery on my skin, but alas it is not!
-
i had no doubt in my mind that i would love this, and i was correct. it's a smooth vanilla-amber-clove scent with a hint of musk. it's absolutely beautiful, and there is almost something floral about it to me, but not sure what that is. i would LOVE a big bottle of this, if it's even possible!

The High Priest Not To Be Described
theseagrows replied to Nightgaunt's topic in Discontinued Scents
wow i love this one. it's slightly musky and ambery but with a cleanness to it. i dont get much leather though and i wish i did! the pepper and incense add a nice spiciness and depth. this scent is sexy and warm but comforting at the same time. -
dear western diamondback, i love you very much, more than i can express in an emoticon, but i will try: you are all i could've ever hoped for and more. western diamondback, you are a vanilla-tonka base with a hint of sexy leather. i can barely detect your sage or sandalwood, but they add a nice supporting warmth in the background. western diamondback, i think you will be a multiple bottle purchase and our love will last forever and ever. yours truly, love, your #1 fan, theseagrows

The Great Red Dragon and the Woman Clothed With the Sun
theseagrows replied to edenssixthday's topic in Discontinued Scents
this is a pretty woody-floral scent. when i first try it on there is a strange nutty-almond scent to it, but i can't figure out which note it is...maybe hte hazelwood? i mostly get the orchid and sweet pea with vanilla and copal supporting in the background. it reminds me slightly of dia de los muertos, but is softer and not quite as sweet. i may have to get a big bottle of this one! -
this is dewy grass with a touch of sweetness from the berries. it seems there's some sort of floral here, but i can't place it. this scent is very young and fresh...it makes me think of a young, pale girl with bright pink cheeks. very feminine and innocent. it's pretty, just not sure i would wear it much...
-
this is like djinn without the strange piney-sweetness. i have found a new love, vetiver, so i am kind of liking this. i think it's just vetiver and black musk, or some kind of musk. it's very, very dark and smoky. i like it but can't decide if i could wear it very often or not.
-
this is a fresh, clean, slightly citrus aquatic. maybe some lotus-y floral too? it reminds me of shampoo and has a very 'clean' scent. it's pretty but not my style.
-
this is a light aquatic in the same vein of the lady of shallot but less floral. i am getting light aquatics, cucumber, soft grasses, and some florals i can't really identify. very cooling for summer, but not sure if this is something i would wear much.

The Arrival at the Sabbath and Homage to the Devil
theseagrows replied to LittleGreyKitten's topic in The Salon
as usual, the caramel is amped a bit more than the other notes on my skin. were i a caramel lover, i might enjoy this, but in this scent it tends to overwhelm. i can smell the vanilla below and a hint of the patchouli. this scent is nice, and i may wear it from time to time, but it's foodier than i generally wear. i wish the carnation and iris came out more with my skin chemistry -
this is a sweet floral with a hint of herbal-bitterness that tempers the sweetness. therefore, i like it a lot! i think i am mostly smelling the blackberry, sage and peony. perhaps hibiscus? just seems like a green leafy floral. i think i will keep my imp of this!
-
wow i can't pick out any notes in this at all. i think it may be some white floral like ylang ylang with cedar or frankincense and an added powderiness. it's kind of sharp and bitter and gives me a headache, so i'll have to swap it.
-
i smell vetiver, aquatics and some sort of clear, watery floral. this is VERY aquatic...much too much for my tastes, so it's off to swaps!
-
i get mostly lavender, musk and spice from this. not much jasmine, thankfully. still something about this smells stuffy or uptight to me. it's not really wowing me so i think i'll swap it.
-
omg i love this one! more than i expected too. but i shoudlve known, since i really love orchid and dirt/moss notes. this is the perfumeyness of orchid mixed with a hint of dirt. the orchid is strongest on me. the cypress is apparent, but the patchouli isnt much..yay! i think ill hunt down a bottle of this if i can.
-
i'm surprised, i actually like this one. foody scents often go bad, but this one is nice. it's more foody-perfumey like 13 is, and i can wear those kind of scents. i cant pick out any specific notes, i can just tell that this smells like a perfumey, slightly caramelly vanilla. very nice. all i got was a sniffie with enough to try a few times, but maybe i'll try to track down more someday.
-
i got a sniffie of this with just enough to try a few times. i smell pure dirt with moss, like zombi without the roses. it has a wetness to the scent like dirt after the rain. this is very nice, since i love dirt notes! only thing is, my skin eats it right up

another tropical scent that is strangely appealing to me. it's sweet but not cloying and has a sort of...dustiness to it, which i am assuming could be from the sugar cane. it kind of smells like a tropical drink sans the alcohol. i normally dont like fruity scents, but this one is kind of cool. i'd probably only wear it once in a blue moon though.
-
Sweet tropical fruits burst through deep, wet rainforest boughs, enormous steamy blossoms, over thin mountaintop breezes, mingled with the soft, rich golden scent of Peruvian amber. this is very tropical and rainforesty and wet. it's sweeter than i normally like, but it's sort of grown on me, maybe due to the amber, because i LOVE amber and it really adds a nice base to this. i think maybe i'll keep my imp of this and wear it in the summer.
-
i honestly like this one a lot more than i thought i would. bay rum always feels too masculine to me, but i like it in this! perhaps because it has the dirt and flowers added, which work well on me. i get a slightly boozy-spiciness from this, but it is not overwhelming. the dirt is more prominent at first, then fades into the background. the flowers are there to add sweetness, but they are so well blended i can't pick any notes out. i will definitely keep my imp of this, it's very interesting!
-
hmm i like this one but don't love it. it smells like sweet tea with a fruity-citrus twist. there is an underlying warmth underneath and this scent is very comforting and bright. very pretty, just not for me.

A great undersea metropolis located below Devil's Reef. A swirling, lightless, effervescent scent: the deepest marine notes with bergamot, eucalyptus and foamy ambergris. this is very aquatic with a fruity sweetness to it. not sure what note is doing that. it reminds me of shampoo a bit and is too sweet for my personal tastes, so it's off to swaps.
