This is my dream red musk scent, a very deep dark red musk. It truly lives up to the name and invokes a luxurious, sultry crimson red. It makes me feel like being bathed in robes of burgundy velvet. Sigh.

This was one of my favorite Crimson Peak scents. Beautiful dark, earthy and sweet. This is very smoky on me with a hint of sweetness from the dark plum. I used to be scared of vetiver but it's really starting to grow on me.

I agree with Muddy Puddles, I've been wearing that when it's cold and/or rainy out and I feel so cozy! I've also been wearing The Worst Pillow too, another cozy scent. I guess to me I tend to go for foody scents when it's cold and rainy because they are comforting to me.

PORTAL OF DEATH!!! How could I not love it? To me this smells like a dark, sweet musky plum. The scent is strong but not overpowering. It's fun and playful and makes me smile whenever I give it a spray.

I'm a fan of the perfume oil so thought I'd try out the bath oil. This is super yummy and refreshing grapefruit and white tea. Great for an invigorating bath, or a post shower slather of moisture (that's how I typically use the bath oils).

This is my go to everyday hair gloss. I love the Alice perfume oil and the hair gloss does not disappoint! It pretty much smells exactly like the perfume oil, but maybe a little stronger on the carnation ( I love carnation so this works for me!). I don't know what else to say, it's really quite lovely!

I wasn't sure what to expect from this one.... and it turned out to be a very interesting scent. I can't quite put my finger on it, but this really has a unique smell. It has the rich spice of the resin and champaca followed by the warm creamy nuttiness. I was hoping for a little more honey and dragon's blood coming through, it's way more spicy than sweet. Overall I really do enjoy it though.

I haven't tried the original Banshee Beat oil, so I wasn't sure what to expect. I first bought a decant of the RR atmo spray and feel in love with the scent and luckily was able to track down a bottle of the hair gloss. I was concerned that it would be too heavy with the patchouli and hemp, but isn't at all. It is very vanilla forward, and as a lover of all things vanilla this makes me so very happy. It smells like a lovely smoky/woody vanilla, with a kick of sweetness. This might be my most favorite hair gloss.

Départ Pour Le Sabbat (Aufbruch Zum Hexensabbat)

This has quickly become my favorite of the Weenies this year. Red patchouli does not always work for me, but in this case it really, really works. What would otherwise be a very creamy, sweet scent (which I love, don't get me wrong) is given a woody, smoky kick with the red patchouli. It's not overwhelmingly heavy either, just the right balance. I find this to be a warm, cozy scent- perfect for autumn. I've been wearing this with Revenant Rhythm hair gloss and they layer quite nicely together. -
This was an iffy one for me, rose does not do well on me. However, I decided to get a decant to give it a try since I love honey, carnations and vanilla. Unfortunately it ended up not really working on me, and not because of the rose. The cubeb is overwhelmingly strong on me, I must amp it. Even drying down it was still all cubeb. This would be great for someone who really loves tart, citrus forward scents, but it just isn't for me.

To me this is a light and creamy scent, a lot lighter than I was expecting. I LOVE vanilla and was expecting it to be a little heavier on the vanilla, but nonetheless a really lovely scent.
-
Mmmmm this one makes me hungry! Super rich and creamy, it smells exactly how I imagine a pumpkin cheesecake cupcake would smell! The cheesecake note is most prominent followed by the pumpkin and spice. It's also not as sweet as I was expecting, which isn't a bad thing. Sadly it doesn't seem last very long on my skin, but the die down of the scent still smells quite nice!

I have been wanting to get a sweet creamy coffee scent and The Worst Pillow is exactly what I was looking for. I first ordered a decant and immediately fell in love and decided I needed a bottle. When wet the coffee scent is pretty strong, but not overpowering. Upon dry down the vanilla and caramel start to come through adding that sweet creaminess. I find that this has good throw and lasting power on me. It is a very comfy and cozy scent, just like a gigantic fluffy pillow!
-
I loved the way this smells in the decant but sadly after application it just smells like medicinal lavender on me I was hoping maybe it would change a little after applying but still remained strongly lavender. This one just isn't for me I guess.

Dark and alluring are the first words that come to mind. I was excited because this scent contains many of my favorite notes (sans patchouli, we have a tenuous relationship). Luckily the patch works for me in this case, and is an all around lovely, lovely scent. I do wish the coconut was a little bit stronger, but I LOVE coconut so I always want more!
