    Love's Torments

    White sandalwood, neroli, and vetiver. Why helo thar vetiver. This will probably not turn out well. Mostly vetiver on me. Not expecting much of a change.

    Machu Picchu

    Flowers and fruit and breezes in the imp, on my skin, mostly the flowers and a bit of fruits and breezy, very clean and light. Potentially a second skin test.

    Manila

    Get that tropical sense in the imp, but on my skin, it's banana and palm and possibly coconut. Oh, damnit. Need to get this off, NOW.

    Lysander

    I'm getting woods and musk and faint florals, not anything too specific in the imp. On my skin, it's pretty floral and musky and just a hint of woods. Hrm. Let's see. Fades quickly, not for me.

    Kubla Khan

    In the imp, I'm getting mainly the ginger and tea and jasmine (my friend compared it to a Kamikaze that's been out in the sun too long, I wouldn't know). On my skin, it's mainly the tea/ginger/jasmine combo, kinda piercing, we'll see what happens. Has the BPAL snow note and that with the tea/ginger/jasmine combo does not work well on me, passing it on.

    Mata Hari

    Roses and jasmine and real generic in the imp, not really that appealing. On my skin, it's pretty much the same. Argh. Going to give it the time so the rest of it to come out, but it's not promising so far. Rose and jasmine. Bleh.

    Lust

    Mostly getting the patchouli and the myrrh here in the imp. On my skin, it's a combo of the red musk and the ylang ylang, which are softening out the former two. Hrm. Fades quickly, not worth it.

    Kitsune-Tsuki

    In the imp, I get mostly the plum and the white musk, and it's the same on my skin and quite lovely. Potential full skin test.

    Bakeneko

    In the decant, this smells like an absolutely amazing tea, like something I'd almost drink. On my skin, it's still that wonderful spiced tea with orange. Mmmm.

    The Arrival at the Sabbath and Homage to the Devil

    In the imp, I'm getting the bourbon vanilla and the caramel, and it's smelling really good; on my skin, I'm getting mostly the caramel with a bit of bourbon vanilla. Mmm. I'm thinking this is going to go on to a second round test.

    Loli.Goth

    In the decant, I'm getting a really creamy strawberry peach, like if I was taking the Kasugai gummies I'm currently eating and mixed them together. On my skin, I get a faint strawberry peach floral; it's really faint on me, and there will be someone who can love this half-decant far more.

    Hellcat

    In the imp, I think I'm getting a combo of the honey mead, rum, almond, and buttercream, amazingly sweet and wonderful. On my skin, it's almond and mead. Mmm. We'll see how this goes. A really sweet, boozy, spicy scent, perfect for a bar. Going to give this the wider skin test eventually.

    The Blood Garden

    In the decant, I'm getting... cologne? Huh? We'll see how that goes. On my skin, I'm definitely getting that sense of cologne, spicy cologne and maybe sweetness in there somewhere. Bwa? Mostly cologne, defintely not for me.

    The Knave of Hearts

    In the imp, I'm getting rose and spicy blackcurrant pastry. Mmmm. On my skin, it's that spicy blackcurrant pastry, and really nice. We'll see how this goes. Ends up being a nice fruity spicy pastry scent, definitely giving it the full skin test.

    Lady MacBeth

    In the imp, I'm getting the wine, the currants, and the berries, it's really nice. On my skin, it's really sweet, with the wine underlying, and the currants and berries coming forward, almost candyesque. We'll see how this goes. .The candy turns into Kool-Aid. Seriously, this smells like Kool-Aid powder on me. Not quite working out.

    Alice

    Finally getting to try this out. In the imp, this smells like the spiciness of the carnations with honey and what I think is the bergamont? On my skin, I think I'm getting the rose, the carnations, and the bergamont, very similar to Pepper, almost. We'll see what this does. It's pretty much weak rose, carnations, and maybe some honey underneath. Not really feeling this.

    Trinket

    I'm definitely getting a cherryish sort of scent. On my skin, there's cherry and amber and something else, not quite sure what. Fading quickly to baby powder, though.

    Wolfsbane

    In the imp, I'm getting whalloped up the head with CEDER. There's probably other scents underneath it, I just can't get it. On my skin, I'm getting the ceder, and some kind of herb. Not that appealing for me.

    Dark Chocolate, Whiskey, and Cognac Truffle

    Oh dear god. In the bottle, I'm getting a blast of dark chocolate, and whiskey and cognac; as someone further up the thread mentioned, THIS SMELLS LIKE BAILEY'S, OR AT LEAST HOMEMADE IRISH CREAM IN THE BOTTLE. MUST NOT DRINK. On my skin... it's pretty much whiskey with a hint of dusty dark chocolate underneath. Damnit. We'll see how this goes, but if keeps on, I may be selling this. Yeah. Whiskey, with chocolate too far underneath for me. Gonna pass this on to someone else.

    What do bottles and labels look like?

    Yeah, I just saw that and came to correct it. ^^;

    Al-Shairan

    In the imp, I'm getting clove, orange, peach, and cinnamon. Ooh. This should be interesting. On my skin, the clove and cinnamon are coming forth strongly, no hint of the peach or orange. ...And it's kind of burning. Erm. Ends up being mostly clove and cinnamon with a hint of fruits buried far underneath, not my kind of thing.

    What do bottles and labels look like?

    Well, Puddin' was talking about selling any leftovers of the Sakura spray at C2E2 potentially... Nevermind, turns out they sold out Saturday night.

    Womb Furie

    In the bottle, this is Snake Oil and O, just a wonderful mix and unbelievably sexy. On my skin, an amazing combination of Snake Oil and O, and oh dear god, yes yes yes yes YES. Erm, sorry, I think I just had a bit of a Womb Furie there myself. Definitely passes the initial test, will probably pass the full skin test. Swapping for a bottle of this = good idea. For the full skin test, the honey comes out a bit more with the Snake Oil, and this is still an oh dear god wow thing. Definitely keeping the bottle and seeking out a backup ASAP.

    Lady Una

    In the decant, I'm getting the honey musk and the vanilla, I think. On my skin, it's honey musk, vanilla, blackberry, and a bit of the tea. Mmmm. This is absolutely amazing, getting the full skin test to be absolutely sure, but the odds are this is going to be another bottle in my future. On the full skin test, I'm getting this wonderful honey-musk-vanilla spicy blackberry with a hint of tea, and absolutely knocks my socks off. Bottle, and sooner rather than later.

    Spirit of the Komachi Cherry Tree

    In the imp, this smells amazing; cherry blossom, lilac, pear, and honey, I only hope the lavender doesn't come into this. On my skin, it's cherry blossom, lilac, and pear, and oh my, please keep being this awesome. Please. Definitely getting a second, full skin test, here's hoping it keeps it up based on what I've been getting. On the full skin test, it's that wonderful cherry blossom-lilac-pear combo with an edge of honey. Yeah, this is definitely going to be a bottle, and hpefully sooner rather than later.
