In the vial - I get a musky almost-aftershave vibe from this. On the skin - I can parse the lavender, but the rest is just aftershave to me. Like Old Spice, but with a bit more spice/herb. Dry - More of the same.
-
In the vial - Cold winter note, very minty. I love the lab’s winter note. :3 On the skin - Winter note, and under that, as it dries, a light floral that smells more like snow than floral - clean, white, almost wet.
-
In the vial - Definitely apricot brandy. Whoa~ On the skin - A scent more like those dried apricots you can buy in the store. Dry - And then the booze comes out to play. *hackhack* Definitely true to apricot brandy, alright.
-
In the vial - Lavender & chamomile. On the skin - Absolutely soothing. Put this on before I went to bed. Dry - Fades to a faint lavender overnight…
-
In the vial – Herbs with a sweet undertone. On the skin - Rosemary and citrus, esp. orange blossom. Dry – Orange blossom! Which is actually nice. If it was like this wet, I might buy a bottle.
-
In the vial – Floral, but almost cologne-y. On the skin – Very much lily, rather than rose, with a musky undertone. Dry – The rose comes out more dry, like a deep red rose.
-
In the vial – Peachy! On the skin – Mm. More peachy. More peach blossom than peaches, though. The rose comes out a bit, and the lavender. Dry – A faint floral/lavender.
-
In the vial – Sweet blackberries, and then musky white sage. On the skin – Sun-warm berries with soft sage. Autumn. Dry – Tasty ripe berries. :3 This reminds me of Euganean Hills, but without any of the chill.
-
In the vial – Black currant, pear and a lot of straight-up sugar. Smells like one of those fruity/floral candies from Japan or something. On the skin – Sugary pear, apple and currant. A bit tart. Dry – Sharp, dry fruit. A bit too tangy/effervescent for my taste.
-
In the vial – Not sure what I’m smelling! I get a trace of what I think is honey? But the rest muddles my nose. On the skin – Sweet, musky, kinda gross. Dry – All musk, all the time. Not impressed. Bleah.
-
Just jasmine…and it stays that way on the skin, and into drydown… I asked for this before I realized that anything with jasmine in it stays just jasmine on me. : (
-
In the vial – Roses, with a slightly dry herb. On the skin – Roses, but with an odd almost “old” undertone. Dry – Just roses. :3
-
In the vial – Cinnamon! On the skin – A gorgeous creamy cinnamon. Dry – This one sticks to me for a long time, and it’s the same creamy cinnamon, just lighter after a few hours. Yum!
-
In the vial – Very much lavender! On the skin – Soft sweet magnolia, with a hint of lavender. Dry – This scent sticks to me really well, it stays at a nice light floral for hours and hours.
-
In the vial – Herbal, very dirty. I take this to be the mandrake, or one of the other herbs. On the skin – Pleasantly light white floral, which I presume to be morning glory? After the initial application, I get only this floral scent. Dry – This one fades to a pleasantly sweet scent, with a very very slight carrot undertone. Unsurprising, since I pick up on the carrot in Sleipnir as well.
-
In the vial – Smells gross. On the skin – Sickening for a moment, before smoothing out to a weird floral berry. Dry – More floral berry, but kind’ve a gross one. Bleah. I had to wash it off.
-
Mostly, to me, this smells foodie, like almonds. It’s a warm scent, but with a weird metallic undertone for me.
-
In the vial – Coconut and vanilla, with a very faint floral scent. On the skin – The florals come more to the front, there’s a very faint undercurrent of fruit which I take to be peach and the black currant. Dry - …Musky florals that stick around.
-
In the vial – Dusty cinnamon, a little airy smelling. On the skin – Spicy! Cinnamon definitely, and incense. Only the slightest undercurrent of fruit. Dry – Cinnamon on top, with a murky incense lurking beneath. The cinnamon has definite staying power on my skin!
-
In the vial – Pumpkin & nutmeg! On the skin – Pumpkin, clove, nutmeg, with the slightest bright note. Spicy and deep. Dry – Nutmeg, yum! Spicy and bright! Barely any clove, but pumpkin lurking right underneath.
-
In the vial – Milk, honey, flowers. On the skin – Milk and honey, with the sweet rose undercurrent. Dry – Milky roses, delish!
-
In the vial – Peppermint!!! And lavender. On the skin – Bright peppermint, soft lavender, and a sharp woody scent. Dry – After a while, this goes citrus on me, almost orange-y in scent. The bergamot?
-
In the vial – Cologne, slightly musky, in a good way. On the skin – Still cologne, but a bit smoke-y and waxy. I was hoping for more dust and paper in this, but sadly, non. I do still really enjoy this, though. I'm beginning to love masculine scents on me.
-
In the vial – Dusty rose On the skin – Dusty rose, with just a hint of smoke and wax underneath. Dry – The rose comes through more clearly as it dries, it’s very much a tuberose scent. I really love the rose in this, and the smokiness of it. But, I'll say that it's really light! I've never felt the need to carry around an imp, but in this case, I definitely feel the urge!
-
In the vial – Limey~ On the skin – Sharp lime, with a musky undertone. Dry – Musky, slightly citrus scent.
