My ability to sense notes is not yet developed (and I forgot to do a time course of the way this scent wore on me), but I just had to post something on the amazingness of this scent. On me, it's lasted about 12 hours. I put a few dabs from an imp on this morning at 7:30 and it's almost 7:30 at night and I can still smell it. On my skin, the scent is mostly honeysuckle I think, a mellow sort of floral (almost soapy, but a very clean and fresh soap, so not like I just went to the bathroom and washed my hands). I got a little bit of sharpness at the beginning, but it's really mellowed out to a rounded floral. I sometimes have problems with strong florals giving me headaches, but I didn't get that all.

In the bottle: At first I was put off by how lily it smelled in the bottle. To me it seemed to consist entirely of lily, with something making it slightly warm and slightly less floral and a tiny bit spicy. Wet: The lily starts to fade and it gets a little bit soapy. Some of the spice starts to come out. Dry: The scent faded to a dusty lily. It seems sort of classic and warm and it makes me think about candles on a chandelier in the velvety anteroom of a fancy old style hotel. It's a little powdery, but not overpoweringly so I wasn't sure at first how I felt about Imperious Tiger-Lily. I received it as a frimp and wasn't expecting to like it. It sort of snuck up from behind and I think I'm growing to love it more and more because it's a warm floral and it doesn't give me a headache (as some other floral-y things do).
