    Beaver Moon 2007

    straight sniff from bottle is sweet and creamy vanilla cherry once applied this is so delectable i could gnaw my wrist off...the creaminess is what is so mouth-watering for me for me, the comparison of this version vs. the previous.... previous had no where near the sillage or depth of this beauty... deliciousness in a bottle

    The Phoenix

    straight sniff from the bottle is lime and salty ocean spray once applied this gets a touch tangy and rounds this out nicely~here comes a touch of some smokiness... while i can never quite put my finger on the snake oil this still is quite the beauty and another perfectly piratey blend!!

    Plunder

    straight sniff from bottle is red hot cinnamon, clove and allspice...nothing sweet either... once applied dark tea and nutmeg; a fresh cigar note...interesting! to me this is somewhat of a gourmandy blend and it rounds out beautifully after you give it some time...ultra unique and very well thought out...if you are looking for something different give plunder a try...the spiciness is what i love about it most!

    Windward Passage

    straight sniff from bottle is truly salty and aquatic; fresh seaweed just washed up onto the beach... once applied this gets stronger and stronger omG...i smell something slightly citrus; after 15 to 20 minutes this calms down tremendously and i am sensing salt and a citronella candle...a touch of sweetness (bladderwrack maybe?) for me this an utterly gorgeous blend and i am happy to have it... i'll wear it often, close my eyes and visual myself on one of my favorite beaches in Provincetown ETA: 4/1/08...so after almost 6 months of aging i decided to dig this beauty out of the depths of the wooden tomb where it lay and try it again....ZomG... straight sniff from bottle is fish!! seriously ... has to be the seaweed note!! amazingly, once it is applied there is no fish note at all...enormously lemony and salty.... i am so glad i aged this and tried it after awhile...i still love it to death!! aaargh mayteeez!!

    Epitaph

    straight sniff from imp is strong, sharp floral... once applied the florals abound...gardenia, magnolia, lilies; maybe a touch of rose... pretty, but not quite my cup of tea.

    Kubla Khan

    straight sniff from imp is buttery and a bit smoky... once applied this amps up...a lot this is a very unique blend...i thought it would scare me off but after i give it 30 minutes plus, this warms up and is really beautiful; it is hard for me to pick out any notes in particular with the exception of the hay...give kubla khan a try for sure; i bet you may be pleasantly surprized
