I just got an imp of this with my order, and it was the first one I grabbed to test.
In the bottle, I could barely smell anything- it had the slightest hint of amber and not much else.
Once I put it on skin though, it was a strong punch of very strong honey, which lasted about half an hour, then transitioned into vanilla.
*sigh* I can't wear sweet scents because they always make me feel sick pretty quickly. I'm giving imp away because I'll never be temped to try this out again.
This was the first time I stepped off the ledge and ordered a bottle without testing it first. But I love octopus themed anything and I couldn't resist.
I think it's paid off quite well.
In the bottle and wet, I got a salty, brine-y smell. I could find the hint of frankincense under there.
Dry, it got so very clean smelling-- teetering just on the edge of being soapy but not quite there. The hint of floral and salt keeps it interesting.
