O is the only other scent I've tried that has honey in it and I love it, so I ordered this with high hopes. It smells bad on me, very heavily floral, no orange, no honey.

In the imp I get the strong smell of movie popcorn. Not kidding here, cheap, buttery slightly burnt popcorn smell. But as soon as I put it on it smells delicious. I agree with the ovaltine remark, and it sort of makes me want to start licking my wrists.

In the imp- Sweet, very sweet. With a hint of something herbally lemon. When I first applied it Dorian was super sugary sweet, it's now calming down into something still sweet, but a little more tea like. And now I'm getting a hint of musky guy cologne...I'm not sure if I like it yet.

My favorite rose blend so far is Whip. It just smells like big red roses on me. Two five and Seven was ok on me, it was a little sharper than I normally like. I can't remember any other rose blends being great.

This smelled of powdery floral on me. Very rosey, but I didn't like the way the violets went on my skin. A little too much like someones grandma for my taste.

I get heavy booze from this one at first, which isn't really a great smell on me. After a while it fades into a nice warm floral, but I don't like the booze.

Initially smells sort of sour on me, and then softens into a sharp, still slightly sour rose smell. Reminds me of two, five and seven. After a bit i get a mossy smell that sort of makes me wrinkle my nose. It smells good, but not fantastic.

Mmmm... I love this one. I've been wearing it almost every day because my imp lid cracked and now it won't close, so I'm afraid of it evaporating before I get to wear it. It smells like a nice sweet blend of amber and vanilla on me, very warm and pretty. On me at least it has a good lasting power, probably 4 to 5 hours. I will get a bottle of this for sure.

I LOVE THIS! Im adding this one to the list of the few scents that work beautifully on me. When I first open the vial it smells like booze. Red wine, and eventually is softened by roses and sweetish honey and chocolate. Gorgeous!

I was looking for a scent to mimic the honeysuckle blooming in our yard. This goes jasminey on me, a pleasant kind of non descript floral.

I was looking for something to mimic the scent of blooming honeysuckle out in my yard, so I was going for hot and cloying. When I put it on unfortunately, all I get is jasmine with more than a hint of decay. Im getting no lemon or spice. Smells kinda too strong and old lady like.

This is such a unique scent..I quite like it. In the vial and wet on my skin it smells exactly like...PIE!!! Blackberry pie, sweet berries with some sugar and cinnamon. Dry on my skin it smells like that, plus some faint leaves and stronger roses. Very interesting.

We have tons of blackberries here, and I love the scent of hot, ripe blackberries. ( That sounds oddly dirty) This smells kind of...thin. Like those little teeny tiny blackberries, I can also smell something that smells like roses. It softens and rounds out into something that mostly smells like little bitty roses. Its kind of a diminutive scent, I like it. I will be keeping this imp. Edit- One unfortunate thing, the scent kinda makes me feel the need to sneeze. I think I will still be keeping it.

Voluptuous and indulgent! A deep chocolate scent, with black cherry and orange blossom. I was really hoping for a sweet, warm milk chocolate scent with some cherry and orange-ness. It smells like a cherry cordial in the vial, and on me it smells vaguely herbal. I cant really smell the chocolate at all, except slightly in the distance. My brother wanted to know what smelled like cocoa puffs.

I really, really wanted to love this one. I love pomegranates, I love roses. In the vial it smells really fruity, like a very, very sweet pom. It dries down to an old ladyish rose scent, not the whip rose that I adore. After about 5 minutes it goes to cheap candy smelling.

Jasmine hates me. My skin chemistry hates me. It smells like metallic dog poo on me unfortunately.

I got a little bitty bit of this from a swap with deana. (Thanks deana!) It smells like red wine in the vial, very strong, enough to make you sneeze. Goes sweet on my skin, does smell a bit like cherry cough syrup. I like it enough that I will keep the little bit that I have.

All I can say is " mmmm sunscreen" and it burns a bit on application.

Smells kind of like gluttony in the vial, same sort of " i smell like aunt jemima!" thingy. Smells kinda pumpkin esque when I put it on. But it has an odd fruity after a bit. Ends up smelling like one of those holiday air freshner. Too bad, I like how pumpkin pie smells.

Vanity in extremis. The scent of rabid hauteur: Moroccan rose and narcissus. Smells like roses alright. Not the kind of roses I like though, I prefer the sweet ones. More like whip, less like this. Its ok I guess, smells a teeny bit like pine sol.

Smells like jasmine in the vial, with some coffee. I smell no rose unfortunately. On it smells like jasmine and coffee addicted old ladies. Which sucks, I really wanted to like this one.

No offense intended Sarada, I dont doubt that you bathe!

Thank you guys for all these great recs. ( I was thinking of trying Eat me anyway, because someone told me it smelled like frosting and I love smelling like food) I grew up in a town with lots of stinky unwashed hippies that wore tons of patchuli, so now I can smell it no matter where it is present...( No offense intended to stinky hippies)

Anu suggestions for something that smells like snake oil - the patchuli? Im going for something exotic and spicy smelling, with some vanilla..but noooo patchuli. TIA

Right now our honeysuckle is blooming. I love how it smells outside. Any suggestions for bpal to recreate this?
