    The Blood Garden

    I probably should have expected it from the name, but this one is a bit too floral for me. Just turns sour and unappealing with my body chemistry.

    Behind the Veils

    Definitely musky at first, but dries down into a weird musty damp sawdust kind of scent very quickly, which is like the opposite of sexy. Doesn't work for me, unfortunately!

    Jolly Roger

    I usually love leather, wood, and boozy scents, but something about this is bitter and unappealing to me. I tried two different imps of different ages, and the (I think) newer one was somewhat better (heavy on the wood), I still think they will both go to swaps.

    Bewitched

    Fresh juicy berries. Not at all what I expected from the name but I like it!

    The Illustrated Woman

    2017 version: Woodsy and piney. Not what I expected? I honestly can't decide if I like this or not. It will have to go in the to-retest pile.

    Only a Sip

    This is like orange hard candy with a hint of mint. Maybe like orange cough drops? That sounds unappealing but I actually really like it. Great fun summer scent. Unfortunately my decant leaked and so I have only a tiny amount of this.

    Bast

    Amber doesn't always agree with me, but this is all warm spicy woodiness while wet. Definitely smells like an exotic desert. Unfortunately an hour later it's turned all sharp and sour on me. :/ I wish the wet stage just lasted because I loved that!

    Knucklebones

    This is much more sharp and aquatic than I was expecting. I can definitely smell the lime and gin, and it's a strong cologne-type scent, almost bordering on Lysol-y. I don't see myself reaching for this one, but I might see if my boyfriend wants it.

    Chad

    Swiss miss! In the packet, before it's even mixed with milk. Tasty enough, but not my favorite of the (many) chocolate scents I've tried as it's definitely a lighter, powdery, more artificial type of scent.

    Jiaolong

    This smells more like black jelly beans than coffee beans on me. It's mostly sweet dark musk. I don't hate it, but it's NOT the delicious coffee scent I was expecting!

    Nibble Nibble Gnaw

    Butterscotch with hints of chocolate and fruity hard candy! Delicious. I might have to gnaw off my arm...

    Zorya Utrennyaya

    I get barely any coffee from this, unfortunately... just the tiniest bit of ground coffee beans in the background. The dominant scent is a kind of nutty herbaceousness, almost slightly methol-y, that must be the ambrette seed. I've been searching for another great coffee scent for when my beloved bottle of The Worst Pillow runs out. Unfortunately this isn't it, as it really doesn't smell anything like coffee on me! It's more like... foresty sawdust? I do like it, but it's not at all what I expected from this one.

    Eat the Strawberries

    This is a more floral strawberry than I was expecting. Something about it is a bit artificial, though it's not sickly sweet. I like this one, but it's not as fresh and bright and juicy as I had hoped for, unfortunately!

    The Small Brown Cat

    LOVE this. It's so warm and cozy, with the rich woodiness and vanilla. Definitely reminds me of Tombstone. I can see myself slathering this on all winter. Might need a full bottle....

    Irish Coffee Buttercream

    This smells EXACTLY like irish coffee and it's incredible.

    Spiced Rum Buttercream Coffee

    Not very coffee-forward, but the spices and rum are definitely there. Lots of cinnamon!

    Diable en Boîte

    Bitter and medicinal, forest-y while wet... after the drydown, it smells like a chlorinated pool. I don't see myself wearing this.

    Brown Jenkin

    This smells like a candle. It's the coconut husk I guess, which is more subtle than most coconut scents, and I actually don't get much sandalwood (which is a shame as I love woody scents). This is a very mellow skin scent, and I really like it.

    Le Lèthè

    It's hard to pick any particular notes out of this, but it doesn't really do anything for me anyway. Normally I'd save it for re-testing down the line, but I'm trying to cull the stash, so off to swaps it goes!

    To a Woman

    Sour and acrid. Not sure what the note is here that I dislike, but it's overpowering.
  21. agirlnamedfury

    Wrath

    This smells very menthol-y to me, though that's not one of the listed notes. Like straight-up mentos. I guess I can get some pepper in there too, though. Trying to decide if I like this one... it may need a full day's wearing to be sure.

    The Dormouse

    More floral than tea for me, and unfortunately I really don't like most florals. So this one is a no.
  23. agirlnamedfury

    The Dodo

    Mostly cassia in the wet stage, but it's pretty mellow and not too spicy. Doesn't seem to give me a skin reaction, which is great! Unfortunately it becomes mostly just a woody scent after the drydown but it's still pleasant enough. I can see myself wearing this from time to time.

    The Lion

    Slightly cinnamon-y cough syrup. That sounds scary, but it mellows out after 20 minutes or so and becomes quite pleasant.

    Antony

    I don't really believe in men's/women's scents but I don't think this one works for me, though judging by other reviews here I might try giving it to my boyfriend to see if he likes it. It's just a bit too aftershave-y/air freshener-like on me.
