sniff from the bottle this reminds me a lot of death on a pale horse.... upon application it gets more floral....white florals with white or very dry sandalwood; gotta be the frankincense ....the tiniest amount of something sweet and fruity comes through after 10 minutes or so.... interesting...too bad this one doesn't last too long......guess i'll just have to slather....
-
straight sniff from bottle is lovely white roses and incense... upon application this is a very soft and beautiful floral...absolutely enchanting for a rendevous with a loved one.....
-
yesssssssssssss! my thirst has been quenched as i have *finally* found a bpal scent containing jasmine that i am head over heels for... straight sniff from the bottle this is softly floral and pretty... on, this is just too gorgeous...myrrh, jasmine and apple peel all make their presence known....this lasts a good long time and i am thrilled beyond words that i took a chance and ordered a bottle.....
-
straight sniff from the imp this is zombi's younger sister upon application this is all about sassafrass...or root beer after 30 minutes or so this gets softly loamy and even a touch spicy.... fairly long lasting ... i will be enjoying my imp thoroughly for sure
-
straight sniff from the imp is the most concentrated almond cherry scent; positively mouthwatering upon application the intensity increases for a minute or so and then rounds out nicely....turns softer and i get a somewhat oatmeal note the oddest thing about this blend is while it is fiercely strong to start it disappears almost without a trace within 30 minutes....crazy chemistry

The greatest of all Aztec cities, and capital of their empire. Amber, hyssop, coriander, epazote, Mexican sage, prickly pear and Mexican tulip poppy. straight sniff from frim this is wrigley's juicy fruit and doublemint gum upon application this still smells like juicy fruit but with some spice.... the corriander, i believe....while this is probably a lovely blend on some this is just not anything i desire to smell like *sigh*
-
straight sniff from the imp is exactly as the lab described..golden, honeyed lillies... upon application this has a very green component to me.... this is one potent scent!!! after awhile the amber comes through loud and clear.... this does not play well with my chemistry....off to the swap pile she goes....
-
straight from the imp this is all lucious green tea upon application the green tea is still in the forefront but the honeysuckle and lemon verbena are apparent as well....so positively beautiful i just wish this was a longer lasting scent on me as my chemistry just seems to gobble it up.....i will be slathering myself with this imp and most likely purchasing a big bottle in the warmer months
-
straight sniff from the imp is wet and juicy pear upon application there are beautiful florals that immediately take over .... while the pear is still there in a very subtle way the roses almost take over completely very strong too...the jury is still out on this one...i think i should try this out on a lovely springtime day vs. a bitter cold wintery 10 degrees...
-
sniff from the frimp this is a strong mint! upon application i can most definitely smell the pennyroyal in this making it quite sharp...after some time the lavendar peeks through.....very interesting...i love that it has a somewhat "old fashioned-ness" about it....
-
straight sniff from the imp is a delicate floral & grapefruit upon application this amps up to a very powerful floral and fruity perfume....i am loving this one a lot and it will be positively glorious for hot, steamy summertime months....i will put this little imp away for when it gets warmer and see how much more i will love it then.
-
a generous frimp from a fellow forumite this is a gorgeous white floral blend mixing with some wet fruity goodness... within 15 minutes or so the lilies come to the forefront but there is still a melon like quality lingering behind the scenes...very strong and long lasting with my chemistry...i will savor this little imp for awhile
-
this imp was a very generous gift from the lab straight sniff: it is sweet pine needles upon application this is more of a dragon's blood mixed with spicy goodness...interesting not sure i need a big bottle but i will wear this when i am feeling "cowardly lion-like"...
-
i love the deep rich, burgundy color of this imp! first sniff....yes, red musk....& red musk works wonderfully with my chemistry.... upon application the red musk warms up nicely and i can smell the beautiful rose components and amber; blended in a perfect harmony... i even get a sweetness of something that smells like honey...niiiiice!! ultra long lasting and very seducing perfume
-
i adore the sweet and syrupy fruity scent i get from sniffing this imp.... once i apply it there is only the tiniest hint of fruit; much more of a floral bouquet .... then it gets all "ralph lauren" (the original) on me..... funny how this one did exactly what mi-go did to me....whatever florals are components in this blend they do not play well with my chemistry
-
first sniff from imp is very bold and almost spicy dragon's blood!! upon application this is much more cherry...i can smell the clove and myrrh mingling in this blend as well.....it is very long lasting too.....lovely
-
straight from the imp i get all boozy and beautiful apricot upon application this does what bon vivant and hollywood babylon did..... while it starts off lovely and creamy, it turns doughlike with my chemistry and escalates into a yeast-like aroma..... i've concluded that whatever that dough note is, itz something that reacts adversely to me..... boohoodles....the description sounded perfect for me...
-
i thought i was gonna love this at first sniff from the imp as the strawberries are positively effervescent upon application this changes into something not so wonderful with my chemistry.....while the strawberries are still in the forefront they turn into something strange.....something doughlike.....or yeasty definitely not for me
-
this is very masculine to me....... i can sense the leather note and some musk..... there is really not too much morphing going on here....... i will pass this along to the boy as i am sure it will smell just divine on him
-
bottle #126 of 300... whiff straight from the bottle: this is what the color green smells like... sweet and sugary and boozey...good thing i don't have a straw or might drink this potion upon application the scent is uber sweet....honey, musk and wormwood... the wormwood gives it a slightly bitter or woody edge that rules my world!!! almost has a lime note but i think i must be confuzzling lime with an actual tanginess that is just so wonderful this is also very strong with my chemistry.....i like it .... no scratch that i LOVE this a lot!!!!
-
bottle #126 of 300... sniffed from bottle this is superbly sweet with an almost grape-like quality!! upon application the beautiful plum,musk and patchouli take forefront; then the sandalwood.....lovely!!!! after 30 minutes or so this scent is still going strong and all the notes have swirled together in the most gorgeous way possible..... thank you beth and puddin' ... i am thrilled beyond words that i was able to get a bottle of this outstanding creation
-
first let me start by saying the patchouli in luperci is fucking phenomenal sniffed straight from bottle i get all dirty thick patchouli mixed with bitter, dark chocolate upon application i get oodles of honeyed musk....soooooo beautiful!!!! after awhile the patchouli comes through subtly but has enough kick that you know it is there....i get a bit of a smoky note as well......i love this to pieces!! beth has outdone herself with this blend....
-
straight from the imp i get the soury scent of blackberry... upon application the blackberry really amps up and then the gentle scent of heather...interestingly enough the rose in this blend is extremely subdued with my chemistry ... quite lovely!!! this is a very unique scent that i think i will keep around for awhile
-
straight from the imp this reminds me of scherezade...must be the red musk....upon application this warms up to be quite nice ... after awhile i can smell the beautiful sandalwood and amber coming through.....long lasting, too...so purdee
