    A Countenance Forboding Evil

    straight sniff from imp is "holy patchouli and vetiver batboy!" amazingly once i apply this the blood orange is the first note that simply pops up forefront!! i can't say i get any of the ylang ylang note but the combo of orange/patchouli/vetiver is excellent...i love the lab's darker blends and this is no exception! thank you beth

    Hairy Toad Lily

    straight sniff from imp is wicked green! once applied this is amazingly like fresh cut green grass how odd that this is just like a single note of green grass and remains that way throughout...i really wanted to smell something purple and sweet but i get none of it...

    Event Horizon

    The Chilling Cellar

    straight sniff from bottle is an over ripe fruit... once applied, the fruitiness takes forefront and then mellows very seductively... amazingly enuff, this practically disappears from my skin within 15 minutes... no rhyme, no reason ADDED Oct. 10: straight sniff from bottle is sweet and dusty... once applied i get a sense of something very earthy; has to be the clay... this scent has great throw! the wine really comes forefront after 10 to 15 minutes and plays perfectly with the earthiness... this scent is stunning and i will cherish my bottle

    Sugar Skull

    sugar skull 2004 - my flav of all time sugar skull 2005 - quite good but this did not have the depth of 2004 sugar skull 2006 - good, but not quite the sharpness of 2004 sugar skull 2007 - straight sniff from the bottle is a super sharp 2004 version ... me likey once applied deep, dark brown sugar...deelish...i think this will age just like my beloved 2004 version...wheeeeeeeeeee!!

    Dia de los Muertos

    DDLM 2005 - pure jasmine headache DDLM 2006 - too scared (and dumb!) to try for fear of previous year's experience DDLM 2007 - straight sniff from the bottle *is* jasmine, however; once applied this warms up to a sultry, seductive, somewhat spicy scent with the jasmine playing ever-so-nicely in the pumpkin patch far, far away this is a tremendous morpher on me ... dried floral and smoke take over after 30 minutes or so; an incense touch to boot... i am gushing and completely thrilled i took the chance on DDLM 2007...a total winner this year!! thank you beth

    Spiked Punch

    Marshmallow Poof

    straight sniff from imp is sweet and slightly boozy fluffernutter... once applied this gets buttery; a bit salty ...almost "play-dough" but not quite...after giving this 30 minutes plus this turns out to be the toasted marshmallow goodness that i was hoping for

    Libra 2007

    straight sniff from imp is a super, sticky sweet cherry carnation... once applied the honey and rose notes amplify intensely... after some time the carnation and rose blend together with a slight fruitiness... strong sillage and quite a morpher ... very well done!

    Hunter Moon 2007

    ... Dry leaves, autumn bonfires, blood red wine, feral, animalistic notes and the chill of approaching winter. straight sniff from imp is boozy vanilla once applied i get a strong whiff of musky civet combined with boozy vanilla...smoky and gorgeous and now i must hunt down a big bottle of this perfectly blended autumn scent !!

    Crypt Queen

    holy shit... the coffin and crypt moss add the perfect touch to this .... straight sniff from bottle is thick, heavy, syrupy, sweet and dirty once applied the tiniest dropling last 4-eva.... stays thick and sweet for 10-15 minutes and then mellows into the most gorgeous mossy, fruitilicous, patchouli, incense blend i have ever experienced from the lab...remains intensely fruity throughout... phenomenal...a complete bargain as well with that crazy coffin...i am honored and overjoyed to own a bottle and the coffin... xoxoxo to the most honorable kebechet and puddin...

    Door 13

    again, thanks to gypsyrosered for this amazing opportunity for being able to review... you rule kiddo!! straight sniff from imp is quite d00dish...cold...aquatic...slight twang of fruit... and yes, once applied the fruit comes forefront with the ocean... the sillage is heavy and with the right chemistry this could be a complete winner

    The Queen's Salon

    thank you to gypsyrosered for this decant circle...she is a dollikinz for doing this... straight sniff from imp is perfumed hay...with a rosy touch once applied this amps up in a hayooge way with loads of florals... mind you i literally applied one teensy drop from the imp heavy, duty florals with my chemisty gah...this is most definitely not for me...the name sez it all i suppose... i more of a jester in the king's court no musk, no comparisons to any other blends...with maybe the exception of mi-go...that was another floral that went haywire on me.... stooopid chemistry... so grateful for the chance to review it !! xo

    Allison Gross

    straight sniff from imp is complete tabasco sauce...wtF? i realize that the tabasco is actually super, duper greenery...how odd! once applied this gets lightly floral...white florals and remains distinctively green ... i like this much better on me than just a sniff from the imp... extremely complex indeed...there is so much going on with this blend and such a morpher...i am compelled to find a bottle of this one!
