I smell loads of pretty wildflowers. I can't indentify any of them because they don't grow down here in the deep, sweltering south. It smells gorgeous and I'm really regretting not bidding more on it on ebay.
-
I mostly smell lilies, with a bit of sandalwood or something like that. It's really nice, if kind of soapy. I like it, and I want more.
-
This smells like a stale, scorched ginger snap. I don't like it. I think I may be the only one...
-
Mmmm, this is really sexy. The red musk is very sensual, and the jasmine smells sensual rather than pretty. I can't detect wisteria but I'm not sure what it really smells like.
-
The salty note in this is very faint, and the dragon's blood is kind of weird. I don't really like it.
-
This smells a lot like Rose Cross. The lily bursts through on my skin, but I don't really like lilies all that much. I'll stick with Rose Cross for frankincensey goodness.
-
Mmm, licorice! I would almost say this has a leather note as well, or maybe a dark musk. It's really masculine (duh!) but I feel tempted to wear it anyway. Pity it's discontinued. EDIT: Ahaha, never mind. It smells foul now.
-
Whip has the same powdery rose as Peacock Queen, but the leather note keeps it wet enough that it doesn't make me sneeze. I can't smell the leather as strongly as the rose.
-
The tea and leather combine to make this seem less menacing than it really is. I haven't figured out which leather smell it is for me (Loviatar being the sexy one and De Sade being the comforting one). It's wonderful.
-
This goes on soapy but calms down into a sweet, creamy floral. It smells like cologne and perfume together, and I think this would be a great unisex scent.
-
I can smell all the notes for once!! I smell juniper and cypress most strongly. The juniper isn't as sharp as I had expected, which means I actually like it, and I love cypress. The chamomile is an intermittent presence, and the rose is a constant sweet gentleness.
-
You know, I smell damn good wearing the embodiment of Classical masculity, despite being a girl and all. I'm shocked that I can wear ambergris without it going rancid-smelling, but there you go. Unfortunately, this lacks both throw and staying power, so I slather.
-
I would expect lilac to pwn this scent, but on me it's all lime and white musk. Terribly chilly, which is great in the recent weather. It doesn't have much throw, though.
-
All I get from this is leather. Very sexy leather. I don't smell any of the other notes mentioned in the description, but I'm not sure I'd want to. I like the sinful purity of scent.
-
There's something kind of piney lurking in here, among a bit of spiciness and some light musk. It's a remarkably masculine blend to my nose, but I find that oddly appealing.
-
This is extremely soapy. It has a pretty good soap smell, a little like Irish Spring, which I've always been a bit fond of. It's not something I'd wear as plain old perfume, though.
-
Spicy with a candied sweetness. Exactly what Red Devil ought to smell like. It's gorgeous, like a licorice jelly bean or something. I love it!
-
Citrus overload! This is a fresh summery scent. After the inital burst of citrus, it fades very quickly. Very little throw.
-
This will be a slather scent, because the amber note makes the whole blend fade away. Dragon's blood and opium work quite well together. This is floral.
-
This smells more like a real pomegranate than, say, Swank, but it's still not quite right. It has a citrusy bite to it. I think I actually prefer Swank, especially since on my hand, this SN has the same sort of overt fakeness as strawberry-scent.
-
This is spicy, and I can kind of detect jasmine among a more general floral smell. It smells very mature and rich.
-
This smells very sweet and isn't what I expected from the description. It smells a little like straw. It has very little throw.
