Powdery lemon?? This isnt what i expected. It must be the sugar in silky bat because it has the same sweet lemon smell
-
I realize i really prefer non sweet violet. I love it here, powdery over resin. Similar to my love of fu said the raven with its earthy quality
-
A dark juicy slightly smoky plum with fresh salt. Moody aquatic. Love

Testing fresh from the mailbox:
Lovely cardamom- spiked snake oil on an overlay of smut. Not a ton of leather right now. Smut on its own a is a little meh for me and this is probably my favorite use of it so far
-
The apricot in this smells a lot like Depraved to me. But while the patch in Depraved can go a little musty on me, the dark musk in this reminds me of cola. Pretty much exactly what I was hoping for
-
This is so elegant and classy. Very mature smelling for a lillith. A lovely, smoky musk.
-
Picked this up on a whim but its signature scent worthy for me. Spicy- sweet vetiver. With deep but sheer cacao. This isnt heavy at all. Resins are more present in the drydown where it is a bit powdery.
-
I get buttery cookies and a very fresh floral not powdery or dry at all. I love florals, the greener the better so both Miss Spinks are a total hit for me 😄
-
Strawberry musk like a strawberry antique lace

This one for sure is nothing like i expected. With honey and caramel listed i was prepared for it be be sweet. I don't find it sweet at all. Its quite reserved and cold to me. A sharp musk with piney resin. I like it once it dries down and smoothes out a bit.

This was one of the first bpals I wad interested in but i didnt get an imp until recently. I do love it but it is intensely powdery. Whiskeyish masculine smelling powder. No mint that I can really smell. Really long lasting. I love it but it is very powdery. Not sweet at all for something with sugar.
-
Defintely smells closer to my memory of what the Antikythera Mechanism smelled like a long time ago without smelling sort of burnt like it has recently. The Oak note is lovely and its sweet but not overly foody. I'm getting backups of this.
-
I like weird Oudh funk but it fades pretty fast with this one. And then its all velvet musk and it is sexxxxy. Im picky with lavender but theres only a tiny bit here.
-
I just got an aged bottle of this am holy hell i love it. My fave cotton candy scent EVER from any brand. A little bit of peanut and i actually find it delicious. I think the wood just gives it a very slight hint of a perfume vibe rather than just straight gourmand. Vanilla goodness. I hope the formula hasnt changed with this one. It lasts forever and i can actually smell myself
-
This one is special and very Bpal to me. It's a lot of creamy vanilla on me deepened with the other notes. My first instinct was to blind buy several bottles and i regret not doing it.
The Vanilla is very sticky and gooey backed up by resinous copal.
The patch and sandalwood sharpen it slightly
Its really like nothing else i have
-
I've had this bottle for years now and I liked it okay but I never LOVED it. Ive recently come around after I realized its mostly tobacco I'm smelling and I am having a tobacco moment. Its ethereal powdery tobacco on me with a non sweet amber. I don't really get vanilla from this and I don't find it to be sweet.

-
I'm glad I don't find this dusty like other people seem to. I just get resinous, sweetish golden patchouli.
-
Reminds me a lot of The Black Rider but with added red musk. So basically I love it. 😍
-
I have no idea what florals these are but it rules. Florals under a sheer veil of cinnamon and vanilla
-
Like an ice cream float with a hint of cedar. Good wear length too. Lovely
-
This was one of the imps from my first order and its long been a favorite. I recently acquired an old cobalt bottle. I prefer most scents fresh but this is amazing aged. The amber is almost vanilla like. With hints of spices. Dry grass on a hot day. The musk reminds of of soft suede. Its powdery and skinlike. I love it so much
-
Soft incense. I agree it is sunscreen like. Light, creamy, but only mildy sweet foodiness. Maybe sandalwood? I like
Soft, but lingers on the skin

I can see what ppl meant by liquorice but my first thought was chili pepper 😂
Definitely an odd scent
I wouldn't call it aquatic or particularly fruit
I assume the liquorice is from the absinthe??
Its more boozey spicy/resinous to me
Edit: yes apparently absinthe smells like anise
