This is one of my favorite catalog scents. I get a lot of leather from this, with a backdrop of vanilla-like sweetness. It's not bitter but it's not phlegm-inducing, and it's perfect when you're feeling a little wicked or just badass. Maybe it's the leather...
-
This smells like the love-child of Snake Oil and Dana O'shee. I pick up almonds and "spice", but since I didn't like Snake Oil and Dana O'shee's on the fence for me, I didn't like this scent much, either.
-
The gardenia is giving me a huge, flower-induced headache, and that's all I really got from this scent. Shame, because I was hoping for more ginger.
-
I don't really understand the popularity of this scent, but maybe I'm just not mature enough to fully appreciate it It's a little sweet but far too heavy for me, and anything that has "spices" in its description usually gets a blind eye turned to it.
-
All I got from this was smoke. No other notes at all, no described notes, just smoke.
-
This, while not a caramel-sweet smell, was still too sweet for me. Straight sugar does not a balanced diet, nor scent, make for me. I'm sure many people like it, but for me, it doesn't do the trick.
-
*sigh* Another patchouli blend that didn't work on me. I ended up smelling like an herbal medicine cabinet with some sugar dumped on it. Not sexy at all.
-
I have to say, this is the perfect blend for lemon Froot-Loops That said, I must consign it to the swap pile, for I do not want to smell like breakfast cereal - unless if it's Cinnamon Toast Crunch
-
I smell... ROSE. and then... SHARP TOILET WATER. Florals are not my friend.
-
I LOVED this scent - so perfectly light and floral, no sharpness, no soapiness... it breaks my heart that my skin ate it up straight away!
-
I'm surprised to see patchouli in this, as it wasn't that strong in it. I got more cinnamon, but overall, all of the notes sort of muddled together and I couldn't really discern one from the other. Heavy scents are not my thing, anyway.
-
This smelled like a smoky, bitter version of Perversion on me. I definitely got the leather, but it wasn't very balanced, and I would really rather have more Perversion =3
-
Oh yum! Lemony tea, vanilla, with a hint of man's cologne (musk). I may be getting a headache from this, though, which breaks my heart! I'll have to try it a few more times to place judgement, though.
-
At first, I really liked this scent. It definitely reminded me of a fresh, dewy, shadowed grass field. However, as it dried it started to smell like... sunscreen? Ew...
-
This was pure rose, though it had a sparking quality that I attribute to the frankencense. I like Kostnice better as a rose scent, though. I've recieved too many of this as frimps =x
-
Perhaps it's the sandalwood or some other type of wood, but this smelled like a lighter version of patchouli on me, with nothing else. I don't get any florals at all.
-
I do not like sharp florals, and this was no exception. I recieved it as a frimp, and I would not have tried it otherwise. I have no experience with lilies, but if that was the floral that killed the scent, I'll know what to look out for next time.
-
Burnt sugar blends are definitely a no-no for me. This was too sickly sweet and gave me a headache whenever I turned to give it another sniff. I had hopes for this scent, as I love nuts (other than almond) and hoped that this would smell like toasty nuts... unfortunately, it smelled like a fire accident in a bakery. Not charred, but very, very sweet.
-
Oof! I was hit with lavendar, which dried down to lavendar, and continued as lavendar until I washed it off at night. I personally do not like lavendar blends (though Luna is nice) and this one is no exception - sharp, sour toilet water is what I think of it, and it's a rare blend that can make me think otherwise.
-
I didn't like or hate this scent, as it wasn't too sharply floral nor did it dry down to soap on me. I would describe it as a "sad, melancholy" scent.
-
I love this scent. I can smell a little of the watery aloe, and a lot of the tea and lemon. It's fresh, invigorating, and I'm beating myself up for letting this one go! Oh well, there's always random draw in frimps...
-
Pine-y, juniper-y. It's fresh and clean smelling, but not one of my favorites. Now that I'm in a slight rut, though, I kind of wish I still had an imp of this around. Oh well!
-
It's herby and slightly citrus-y from the verbena, which makes it a nice room scent but mostly unsuitable for everyday use. Not a bad scent per se, just not good as perfume.
-
Patchouli patchouli patchouli. If you like the P-word, get it - that's all it was on me. My skin loves to throw it off, but I personally hate the scent of it and would much rather have some tonka or citrus.
-
A nice floral scent that's also a bit warm from the tonka. I don't get headaches from it, and it has a decent throw. I don't like or hate the scent, but I don't think I'll ever wear it. If I get it as a frimp again, I'll keep it around.
