Dark Seraphim

I couldn't wait to get my hands on Smut, so when I finally got it. I was quite pleased. Bottle: It's certainly quite musky and boozy. Wasn't what I expected as I thought it would be a little more musky and a bit less berry-like. Still, a very nice, strong scent. On Skin: Here the berry-like scent is overpowering and proves to be rather nausiating. Too bad, really as it's not a bad scent, but this is one of those scents that can be naseous for me. Worth getting at least one imp though. 6/10.

Beautiful earth scent mixed with rose. A perfect combination. Does fairly well on my skin as the throw is strong and remains a decent rose. Doesn't seem to last as long as other scents though. Still, it is a great burner scent. Works for me. 9/10.

For me, it was pure coffee with a hint of jasmine. Beautiful, polished scent that doesn't last long on my skin, but is truly wonderful as a burner scent. Too bad my mother doesn't like it. She says it smelt like poop and bugspray. Bah. Does happen to be a scent I like a lot as a room scent. I can't imagine it not being on my favorites list. 9/10.

Took a lot of getting used to as it had a slight rotting scent at first. After awhile, I found it quite pleasing. In bottle, it smelt leathery and floral. Very nice and it grew on me nicely. On skin, it failed completely. It irritated my wrists and became a not so good powder scent. In the burner, it fares much better! I can smell the lilac and it's most certainly a floral, but it's a subtle floral. Beautiful scent in burner. Nice, but not something I'd get a bottle of. 6/10.

Bottle: I got this one as a surprise gift imp. It's very nice in bottle. All I could think of was "Yellow Yellow" floral. Yellow rose, yellow flowers. On skin: Very long lasting. One of those "next day" scents. Smells pretty much the same on skin as in bottle. The throw is not too strong, but it's enough. Burnt: Doesn't change, except that I detected a mint powder. Nice. It's a nice scent, but the scent is such that if I use too much, it could be nausiating. Still, I liked it and wouldn't mind another imp. 7/10

Bottle : Butterscotch. Perfect butterscotch. Skin: The rum appears out of nowhere and dominates the scent. However, the throw is non-existant and the scent quickly becomes beer spilling onto stone-like smell. Did not work to well on my skin. Burner: Very nice here. The rum and butter mix very well together. Subtle, but strong and smells great. Not meant to be worn on me, but clearly belongs in a burner. Very good scent. 7/10.

Bottle: Very woody, spicy scent. Sandalwood, patchouli. Very nice and exotic, but lighter than I imagined. On Skin: Doesn't seem to change much. The throw is strong, but short-lived. However, it does last for quite awhile. Even if it's not strong on my skin, it persists. Burnt: Excellent here. Nice, strong, and powerful. A decent blend, but there are better ones out there for me. 6/10.

All I could think of was "fair Ophelia" as it truly is a very fair scent and I mean that in a very good way. This scent is gorgeous. Smelt mostly like roses on me, but a very light rose with quite a strong throw on me. One of those "all nighter scents", which meant that it lasted from the evening until the next morning. Love it! 9/10

Whoa! This is an excellent scent! It smelt very fruity, sweet and powerful. It's also a berry scent that doesn't nausiate me(I love berry scents, but they tend to make my stomach turn. Waaa...). When worn, the throw was very strong on me and there was very little change on drydown, except Thyme became known. Love it. A excellent scent! 9/10!

I managed to snag an imp of Snow White 03. Bottle: I got an apple/light floral scent. Very sweet and crisp, but light. On Skin: I got a very weird metallic scent. Like a poisoned Apple. Not bad, just a very odd apple-like scent. The throw is subtle, but there. After awhile, it began to smell like apple/cinammon/light forest scent. Burner: Takes awhile to appear, but when it does, it becomes a very beautiful apple tea/cobbler/cider-like scent. Like it a lot here. Reminded me of Empyreal Myst, only more subtle. I like this scent and might consider it should it ever be available again. 7/10.

Bottle : Smelt "stony". Must have been the cedarwood and leaves. Was very lovely as I tend to be a sucker for things that smell "stony" Worn: Doesn't change much, but it smells a little "sweeter". Nice, but short-lived as it fades away quickly on me. Certainly a very nice scent, but just not strong enough to be a 'keeper' to me. 5/10

Bottle: Seemed kind of weak to me, but obviously masculine and quite pleasant. Worn: Proved itself here a thousand-fold. Had a super strong throw on me and lavender was clearly the stand out note on me. Lasted for hours, even to the next day. Yes, it was masculine, but it smelt great on me. Loved it to pieces. 9/10.

Vial: Like an apple tree orchard. Or, someone who cut an apple and then the juice sprays in the air. Skin: At first, it smelt like a potato, then on drydown, it became a light apple cider scent. However, it went very light very quickly and faded within the hour. Burner: Works very well here. The light apple scent remains, but it remains noticable even though it's not as strong as other burn scents. Very pleasant scent. I wouldn't mind an imp of it, but I doubt I would get a bottle. 7/10.

This is certainly one of the more potent scents. So strong that it eminated from the imp bottle(I got this as a frimp from BPAL). I love this scent. It smells like a very nice mixture of sea water, wood, spices and a little bit of leather. Does fairly well on my skin too. A keeper. 9/10.

One of the best scents ever. Smells exactly like the Earth after it rains. After testing, it smelt like grass. It doesn't last too long on skin, but I don't think it's meant to be worn. I think it's meant to be burnt in an oil burner. I just love this scent to death! Perfect. 10/10

Truly beautiful scent. I fell in love with it at first sniff. In bottle, it was more ozony than anything, but when wearing, a strong citrus scent took over. Reminded me of an orange peel squirting out into the air. Just very nice. In the burner, it's pure citrus, but reminded me of a Sunkist. The throw on me is not great, but scent itself is quite good on me. Keeper for sure. 8/10

Huh. All that's in there? Wow. Anyway, I got two imps of this one. The first imp smelt light and floral. Certainly very pleasant. The other smelt far more herbal and a little less pleasant. Don't know what happened there. I tried the first one and on skin, it weakens into a generic powder-like colonge. However, the throw was quite strong, the overall scent pleasant and lasted until the next day. When burnt, it smelt the same, and while pleasant, ended up giving me a headache. Not a good sign. I never tried the second imp at all and don't intend to. I don't think Zephyr is a bad scent, but there's a lot of other scents better that don't give me a headache. 6/10.

Bottle: Didn't know what to make of it, except that it just smelt good. I thought it was minty, but that must have been the chamomile. Very nice here. Skin: Horrid when wet. Just smells like bad cleaner to me. However, the throw is lovely with very nice, light rose-like scents (must be the rosewood and violet). Wouldn't be able to sniff wrists, but would be glad to sniff the air. Certainly makes a nice burn scent. Overall, pretty good, but not a keeper. 5/10.

I'm surprised I didn't review this before! In bottle, it's pretty much the same as everyone else has been saying. I thought of Spearmint, Peppermint and even Winter Green. Just wonderful! On skin, it's the same. In fact, it's cool on my neck. Very nice. The scent is still minty, only it becomes more leathery smelling. Doesn't seem to last long compared to some of the other scents, but it had a nice, strong throw. Very nice. It's phoenominal in the burner. Just pure Spearmint with a slight leathery scent. YAY! As you can see, this one is one of my favorites. While there are a couple of other scents that do better with me, this one holds its own just fine. 9/10.

One of the best scents I ever had. I'm glad I managed to get my hands on an imp of it. Bottle: Lime/Lilac sort of scent. I was picturing white when I smelt this. Gee, I wonder why. There's a hint of musk, but not much. On Skin: Perfect. The white musk dominates here, and that's pretty much all I smelt. Very sensual, and long lasting. Burner: Same as on skin. Lasted even after the tea light burnt out. Wonderful. This is one of the best blends I've ever tried. One of the clear favorites. 10/10

Bottle: What I thought was a "cherry scent" turned out to be an almond scent, which is nice. I found it rather 'earthy' with the almond scent. Lovely. Skin: Quickly falls apart on my skin as it becomes "plastic peepee". EWWW! Made me think of clove, which is not a good thing for me. Would probably make a decent room scent though, but no way would I ever wear it. It actually burnt on me. I had to wash it off. Yikes. Works VERY well as a room scent though. Nice, almondy goodness. 6/10

Bottle: Minty, very minty, but not entirely so. There's a light floral there too. Since violet is mentioned, it's most likely that. Worn: AIEEE! Carpret cleaner at first. On drydown, the mint returns with a very strong throw. However, the scent doesn't last long on me at all. Burnt: Minty carparet cleaner. It's better here. Overall, I liked this scent quite a bit, but while an imp is nice, I doubt I'd get a larger bottle. 6/10.

This is one fo those scents that took a long time to get used to. Bottle: Certainly very floral, but I kept thinking "there's something else here". Honestly, I couldn't tell what. Citrus was what I was thinking and also a "cold" scent. "Regal" was described and I think that makes the most sense. Skin: At first, I was ready to dismiss this scent as something that doesn't seem to work on me. Then, I smelt the cool rose and it stayed a "cool rose" for quite a few hours. Eventually became a rose powder, but still very nice. Burner: Didn't smell anything at first, but given about thirty minutes, the scent went all throughout the house. Nothing but rose all over the place. Smelt great. Very strong. Went from a scent that I was ready to dismiss to a scent that I would gladly keep and get another bottle of. Beautiful rose blend. 9/10.

Bottle: Chocolate Cookie! YUMMY! On skin: Much more chocolatly here. Milk chocolate. YUMMY! Doesn't last long though. Burner: Basically an chocolate cookie scent again. I call these kind of scents "torture scents" because foodie scents, except for foods I don't often eat, tend to be "painful" for me as there's no chocolate for me to eat. I don't often get foodie scents for that reason. This is a great blend, but people who love foodie scents would appreciate it more than I do. I'm hungry. Imp? Sure. Bottle? No. 6/10

Reminded me a lot of Azathoth, only not quite as sterile. It was more lemony and reminded me of clean sheets rather than a hospital. On skin, it was pretty much the same, but I will say that this scent was by far the longest lasting on me! WOW! It wasn't too strong on me, but it lasted for over fifteen hours, and that was just a little drop. Excellent scent! Loved it. ETA: It's perfect in the burner. Strongest scent I've ever burnt! Just wow! Oh: 10/10
