I got sweet wood and smoke from this (cedar? teak?). I know Mr. Gaiman mentioned raisins, and I tried to sniff out that note, but couldn't pick it out. It's very well blended and pleasant.
This reminds me of some of the more sohisticated commercial perfumes I've sniffed-- Poison or Chanel, things of that nature.
I'm really glad I got to try it and just as glad I don't love it.

When I sniffed this, what I got was girlie leather. Not sure how to describe it more than that. Leather, but with something lighter and sweeter underneath, to make it less masculine.
I smelled the bottle of this at the Convergence event and it reminded me of a field of wildflowers in the spring-- young and fresh and sunny, with a little dew drying off. I didn't get any of the heavier florals that I ususally don't care for. I'd consider getting a bottle of this and I'm not a "floral" person.

This smells very very floral to me-- all roses and jasmine. I wish it smelled more of lavender because I like lavender. But it does help when I can't sleep so I may have to buy a bottle. I get insomnia when I get stressed, so anything that will help with that is appreciated.
