    Smithereena

    Oh this smells pretty good! I get the leather and a hint of the cinnamon bun. Stays close to the skin on me. Not very strong considering the notes, but I am really liking this. I get both the leather and cinnamon bun as it dries, but yes, it is soft and not cloying.

    Together We Shall Rejoice Lotion

    I got a sample in this from a decant circle. This smells so good! Reading the notes, it would have been something I wouldn't have bought, but I should learn by now that that usually isn't the case. This is soft and sweet and beautiful. I don't know if I can pinpoint what I am smelling or how to describe it, but I tend to go for foodie/gourmand scents, and I really love this. I get a hint of apple, but it isn't prominent. I think the other notes just balance it out perfectly. It is almost a scent relative to Snow White for me. Just with a bit of apple in it!

    Snake Oil and Candied Pomegranate

    Sniffing my decant of this, I get the rich Snake Oil we all know and there is a hint of a sweet fruit. I think this smells amazing. On my skin, I get S.O and the pomegranate! This is a strong one and I am loving it! I love almost anything with S.O. and this doesn't disappoint. Stays the same as it dries. I might have to get a bottle of this!

    Chicory Coffee and Beignets

    Sniffing in the decant ( not sure if it is just me, but always harder to get a good whiff in a decant as opposed to the bottle) I detect the pastry, but the coffee note is real faint. Thought it would be stronger being chicory. Stays close to the skin and is very nice. I get mostly sugared beignets with a drop of coffee. It is very nice and mild. I was hoping for more oomph, but this is for you if you like softer foodie scents.

    Black Coffee and Apple Pie

    Got a decant of this, might have to get me a bottle. Sniffing, I get a fresh apple scent (not tart, not sweet) and the coffee floating in the background. Stays the same on my skin. The coffee isn't strong or bitter. I crust makes it softer. I get a perfect balance of both coffee and apple. As it dries, the apple gets a bit more sweet, but not overly so. If you like either of these scents, you will love this!

    Snakes in the Coffee Beans

    So excited to have this!!! Tore into it right away! Sniffing in the bottle, reminds of a relative of Boomslang. On my skin though, I get the rich S.O and Coffee Bean! This smells so good! Great throw too. As it dries, it stays true. Rich S.O. and dark roast coffee beans! Very BU bottle worthy. 🐍☕

    Spooky

    2025 version! SO glad this came back. I had a bottle and did the "regret selling it" not long ago. This IS a super fun Halloween scent. You wouldn't think so by the notes, like it would be more of a summer-y type one. I get all the notes and this one lasts a long time! I think the cocoa and vanilla make it more autumnal. Might have to get a BU!

    Hot Buttered Snake Oil

    Anything with SO is always a win with me. When I first put this on, it reminded me of Snakes in the Pumpkin Patch! Thick and heavy on the SO and other spices. Probably the molasses! But this is such a warm and yummy scent. Not really a summer scent, but I broke down and had to get a bottle. The dry down stays the same. I don't know if I am getting any rum from this, but I am ok with this. Really, if you loved Snakes in the PP, you will love this. Very close relative to it to my nose.

    Revenant Rhythm

    Very disappointed! This isn't Revenant Rhythm. I don't know what this is, but I tested this and it was a green chemical smell. This is no where close to the RR HG I used to have. I was so excited to see this re-released but super sad it is something else. It faded quickly and then I was left with...nothing. I will see if it will do something better with age, but, not counting on it.

    Harvest Moon: Campfire Smoke and Bay Rum

    Sniffing in the bottle, I get a bit of the rum, but not really detecting campfire smoke. But there is something that is making the rum smell a bit... cooked? Not sure if that is right, but it isn't a boozy smell. On, the smokiness comes out a bit more. Kind of gives it a more cologne-y smell to it. More of a manly scent to me, but stays close to the skin and doesn't morph too much. The rum is in the background. To me, this might be more of a scent for a guy, but I had to get it to see. Can be unisex, but not sure this is for me.

    Snakes in the Coconut Cake

    Not sure what I can add that hasn't already been said above.... sniffing this is a lovely coconut vanilla Snake Oil. It actually reminds me a little bit of Snow Snake but without the 'snow' note. It has great throw on me. Warms up to a sweet coconut snake oil cake! This is very delicious.

    Snakes in the Berry Sonker

    Oh I love this! I don't get any molasses, but I do get the awesome S.O. and rich thick berry pie filling. I get a hint of crust as well. I get all that sniffing but on, it is even better! It mellows out a bit on me, but very present. This is a rich dark berry scent as noted above. Very happy I grabbed this and might get a BU bottle if still available when I have more funds!! This will be even more amazing when aged!! Grab it while you can if you are a fan of S.O.!!!

    Belgian Chocolate Hair Gloss

    Oh yummy!!!! Just got this. Sniffing in the bottle, rich deep chocolate!! There is a slight hint of a dry cocoa feel to it to my nose. But you need this if you are any type of chocolate lover! I usually use my HG's on damp hair, but had to put this on now in my dry hair and I didn't use much but in a heavenly cloud of chocolate!! This isn't as mild as milk chocolate, but not a heavy dark chocolate! It is a perfect medium with good throw. I would take a sip if it were edible. Which I won't of course, but oh man... I am really loving this!!

    Gingerbread Hot Cocoa

    After reading reviews, I had to get a bottle!! Sniffing in the bottle, all gingerbread! I get a chewy gingerbread cookie scent, but minus the cookie, which I know doesn't make much sense! On my skin, I get a ginger/cinnamon vibe. Not detecting any hot cocoa. As it dries, I think I am getting a hint of some sort of cocoa/chocolate scent. It isn't much, but I still love this. Medium throw on me and I think this will be even better with age!

    Snow Snake 2023

    So glad I grabbed a bottle of this. Sniffing in the bottle, I get the wonderful S.O we all love. Not sure if it is the musk, but to me, it smells just like aged S.O. Very good. On my skin, the cold, snowy note comes out. I get the same Snow White impression but it has that S.O edge to it. Not musky on me either. This is so good and has a great throw. Might consider a BU bottle!!
