I got this as a frottle and it's unctuous and dark and delicious. Amazing. Very surprised I haven't heard people raving about this more!

Wet: lilac and snow and some sweet musk. Dry: Mostly lilac with a whisper of snow and plum and musk. Very very lovely!

Wet: blackberry and lots of musk. I thought there was oud in this until I checked the notes, too. Dry: Oh. Oh. This is a sweet candied musk, with lovely floral tones to it. Gorgeous!

Wet: praline-y chocolate. very good throw, too; this is a Strong scent. Dry: a really tasty chocolate scent! No disastrous cocoa in this for once, just a tasty nutty truffle I'd be happy to devour.

Wet: faint, smoky musk and a warm leather that's really like the one in Dragon's Hide. Dry: soft, warm, a bit sweet, musky-sexy with the leather and smokiness. It still reminds me strongly of Dragon's Hide. Very nice.

Wet: soft patchouli, some very light carnation. Dry: a very nice sort of spicy floral? I regret passing up on a bottle when I had the chance. Oh well.

Wet: a weird combination of wet, lagery effervescence and a sweet, warmish groundedness. Dry: If I could smell no beery hops I would love the rest of this as I can detect warmth and sweetness and it's really comforting. As it it that wetness sort of unsettles me? Hrm. I'd ordinarily just assume it needed to age into something smoother, but that's probably not the case here. Edit: oh. Given an hour and a bit, the hops has gone... this is a warm, smooth tobacco scent, very pleasant!

Wet: unpromisingly soapy florals. Dry: Soap. Soap with extra soap. I don't know what's causing that but I'm very sad, as I was expecting a sort of orange-blossom-musk-woods scent. Alas!

Wet: Oo. Oooooo. Pumpkin spicy, dark musky. Dry: A really nice pumpkin spice blend with a hint of honey and musk! I have similar things, but mostly I am vershocked. Smut historically does bad things on me! Maybe I need to give it more of a chance.

Wet: a boozy, vanilla-ed patchouli, very warm. Dry: a strong patchouli and woods, softened and sweetened because of vanilla or rum or something along those lines underneath.

Wet: dry, earthy patchouli, with a herbal note. Dry: Hnngh. I mean this is basically a dry patchouli single note now, but it's a feral, herbal, sexy kind of patchouli. Keeping even if I don't know when'where I could wear it.

Wet: a very warm, dry patchouli with sweetness underneath. Dry: Lovely, soft honeysuckle-and-warm-base-notes blend. Cosy, somehow?

Wet: oh, Oh. Rich sweet gingerbread with a very grounded tobacco making it even warmer and delicious. Dry: Hngh. This is so good. It's a rich, really *good* gingerbread-flavoured tobacco, fresh from the shop and making you wanna huff the container.it came in. I am utterly in love. Yum.

Wet: ssssspices, in a good, warming way, like everything for chai kept in one drawer. Dry: a glorious melange of warm, sweet spices. Smells like there's honey in this even though there can't be or it'd explode on me. Beautiful.

I had to get this, as it's Morpheus from the Sandman. Even if I don't like this, I'm keeping the bottle. Wet: medicinal sharp lavender cut with warm amber and musk. Gosh. This is very nice. Dry: A slightly unsettling lavender and warm musk and maybe some floral oudh, never quite evening out. Has a hint of something like carrot seed in it, too. Reminds me of something else I've tried recently but I can't bring to mind what it is. Anyway, very good, honestly, I love the slightly acrid lavender tone over that warm deep background.
