Oh, is this a reality yet?? I tried to get the XLS version but can't load it and don't want to spend 70.00 on the program.

*SWOON* Oh wow! I KNEW I should have ordered a dozen bottles! First, the bottle. The label is awesome. A black and white picture of a garden, only reversed in color. The background is black and the details are white. BEATRICE is written in pink. Getting past the artistic bottle, The first sniff just grabs every sense. My first impression is a stronger version of Tushnamatay! Definately roses, and vanilla? But much more than that. Gorgeous!! As it dries, yes, very much like a strong version of Tushnamatay! The vanilla really makes its self known. I wish I could pick out the notes better, but they blend So well... let me just say, this is a beautiful scent!

Wet, cinnamon. This dries into a very clean cinnamon scent that reminds me of Red Hot's candy. Sweet and warm. It also reminds me of Christmas!! It has dried into a perfect blend of cinnamon and clove! Fades into a soft clove before vanishing a few hours later.

In the vial and wet, smells of pure lavender. Very sharp and strong. Dry, faded lavender. I don't pick up any other notes at all. Quite nice and lovely if you love lavender!

In the vial and wet, honey cinnamon and ginger. Quite spicy. Dry: My chemestry does nasty things to honey and cinnamon. So, you don't want to know.

Not so good. In the bottle and wet, pure soap. Dry: Dry violet soap (heavy on the soap)

Oh wow! A moon I can wear! Wet, just like Juicy Fruit gum. A gorgeous fresh blend of all things fruity. Dry, still Juicy fruit, but a hint of floral. Yea, I am going to need more!!

Very light and lovely. Both wet and dry, it reminds me of a light version of "Eternity". Yea, this is one to get in a 5ml for sure.

A very light floral indeed. I am reminded of Honeysuckle and gardenias in the vial and wet. Dry, more gardenia and maybe a hint of violet. Not bad at all, but not one I need to own anytime soon.

Wow. This has alot of lime in it. It makes my mouth water just sniffing the imp. Tart and tangy. It stays the same wet on the skin. I like it!! Dry is a different story. My chemestry does bad things with Jasmine, and that is all I can smell now.

First sniff in the imp, My favorite wine and berries. Very warm and dry. On my skin, it has a smokey incense note that comes out first. Very sweet and dry like smoke, but not the type that typically gives me a headache. Beautiful while wet, but as it is drying, Uh oh. It is going into a soapy smoke that isn't going to work out very well. Completely dry, it has redeemed it's self. Fruity and clean. I like it!

This is wonderful. It reminds me of my favorite Christmas candle. In the imp, I thought I could smell patchouli. It had that gorgeous wafting licorice sweetness to it. But putting it on my skin - nope. Pine, hints of maple sweetness, and sandalwood? (My skin turns alot of things to sandalwood) Very beautiful!! Stays the same on me as it dries. A very warm scent. This is one I want in a bottle!

Wow! Opening the imp, I expect bubbles to tickle my nose. Sweet champagne and sugared strawberries! Very sweet, and candy like, almost giving off a hint of flavor with the scent. Dry: Reminds me alot of the scent of strawberry flavored lipgloss, but the chanpagne never gives up center stage. Gorgeous blend! Must have MORE!

Gorgeous! First sniff reminds me of fresh cut alfalpha - a meadow sweet green on a warm summers day. Fig takes center stage as the green fades, followed by warm coconut, and a creamy goodness of almond milk. Dry: Fig and coconut blend into the perfect sent along with the sandalwood, for that gorgeous after thought. A faint whiff that draws your attention when you move, and makes you want to investigate further. My nose has been stuck to my wrist all day over this one. A must have 10ML!!

The Spirit of the Divine Messenger, the Lord of the Crossroads, He Who Owns All Doors and Roads in this World. He is the intermediary between the Orishas and mankind, and stands at the intersection of humanity and the Divine. He opens all paths of communication, both mundane and Heavenly. His ofrenda contains coconut, tobacco and sweet, sugared rum. In the bottle and wet, hot buttered rum. Coconut jumps out and smells like warm toasted coconut sauteed in rum. Damn... I need a pina colada! Very pretty, and reminds me of a cake my mom used to bake. This is going to be a fav!

Bright floral notes. Not overly sweet floral, but a heavier and bright. I get the peony and lily when it is wet. As it is drying, the musk is coming through. Completely bypassing any mandarin and wood. A tiny dab of pepper under every thing, almost as an after thought. I have to search hard to find it. Now, some mandarin is coming out. A light, sweet, but not sickening smell. It seems to be fighting with the flowers for domination. Musk hangs strong. And completely dry, musk and a bright floral.
