    Nosferatu

    Sweet wine, but there's something sour under this that actually goes soapy on me, so it smells like a glass of red wine part way through the dishwasher.

    Ogygia

    This is all salty aquatic and evergreen pine-esque notes--it smells incredibly fresh and clean, but a little nauseatingly so, like too much soap.

    The Death-Horse

    Powdery floral with a cloying, sticky sweet note.

    Uruk

    Bitter, medicinal herbs.

    Vice

    Starts off cherry syrup with a hint of cocoa, but morphs into some kind of lemonade--sweet, sugary lemon--which is actually far more wearable for me, but still totally bizarre.

    Envy

    Green herbs slithering through mint, lime and lavender. This smells exactly like LUSH's Angels on Bare Skin cleanser. Overwhelming lavender and green-ness.

    Incubus

    Caramel coated musk. Actually not too foody for me and pretty nice, just not something I would wear--very sweet.

    Omen

    I get a sweet incense, almost a lemonade note from the mix of berries and juniper, touched by dry spices.

    Roadhouse

    Really pretty--fresh dandeliones coated in sugary layer of sweetness from the rum, balanced by just a hint of dryness from the hemp. Mostly, fresh, sweet floral.

    Death Cap

    This is dry, dusty earth and wood shavings.

    Strangler Fig

    I get warm wood, almost sawdust like, and green florals mixed with a sweet, fruity tone that alas, fades into a more woody, herbal note. Interesting and prettier than expected.

    Magus

    Something in this goes vetiver on me--it might be the cedar(?). Woodsy and slightly dank, very masculine but not something I would want on my guy.

    Grief

    This dries down to a powdery, sweet flora. Something in it is a little too sweet and saplike. Pretty but not outstanding for me.

    Mary Read

    A distinctly tropical scent. Coconut isn't listed as note, but somehow that's what I'm getting--both the sweet fruit and a bit of that aritficial, suntan lotion scent, over a background of salt water and ocean breeze.

    Sea of Glass

    Crystalline is definitely the word for this. Clean, bright aquatic citrus. Smells similar to a commercial perfume, but prettier!

    Bordello

    A decadent, deep perfume, lusty and luxuriant. The scent evokes images of velvet-lined Old West cathouses, tightly laced corsets, rustling petticoats and coquettish snarls of pleasure. Bawdy plum with amaretto, burgundy wine and black currant. Sweet, ripe dark purple plum. A hint of currant, but not overly boozy. Dark and fruity.

    Dragon's Tears

    Really pretty. Soft, powdery aquatic notes over equally delicate, almost floral but warm dragon's blood. Previous reviewer's mention of jasmine is on-point.

    The Red Rider

    Definitely spiced red leather and the warm, pine-y tone of basalm. Almost get a patchouli-esque sensation from this one.

    Black Hellebore

    Surprised at how much I like this one--not at all what I imagined from the description. This starts off with a slightly bubbly note over a warm floral base. The bubbly note fades as this dries down, but it stays very warm, almost amber like, with a slight herbal/incense note and a floral background. I would describe this as warm, floral, incense.

    Black Forest

    Almost aquatic in its coolness. Lovely cool, green floral but not quite floral. Also has a slightly powdery, fresh laundry undertone that I love. This is definitely gender netural, but I would love it on a guy!

    The Scales of Deprivation

    Soft floral and powder. Smells like a womans' perfume version of baby powder in a good way.
  22. Veronica

    The Coiled Serpent

    Sandalwood and frankincense. Very ritualistic smelling, not something I would use as a perfume.
  23. Veronica

    The Apothecary

    Light, green floral with a slightly dusty quality. Similar to Rapunzel and Ochosi.
  24. Veronica

    Gaueko

    I get spices over a syrup-y sweet base.

    The Night-Raven

    This starts off being mostly patchouli--but a tempered, soft patch. There's a period where the patchouli disappears completely and this is a lovely, sweet plum/bezoin scent with a floral background. Final drydown, this is rose and sweet plum, with a base of slightly smoky patchouli. Actually quite surprisingly good (patchouli is a death note), but not something I would reach for.
