I couldn't even try this one on. It gave me an instant headache. I am pretty sure that it is the Black narcissus, because I've worn the other notes and they've been fine on me.

This scent was just not me. Bottle: When I opened it, it just smelled of orange blossoms, tobacco and cumin. Wet: Tobacco, cumin and the black musk Dry: The mint started to come out and so does the orange blossoms, but the tobacco is very strong on me. Off to the swap pile!

Manilla smells so sweet to me. After the sweetness died down the banana leaf and palms came into play and they play so very well today. The smell reminds me of a friend of mine cooking. Very tropical dishes with bananas and other delicious fruits I don't know the names of. A pleasant scent to compliment those summer days.

In the bottle this was very sweet and airy to me. As I put it on, the sweetness was still there, then the cherry blossoms began to come out. I didn't start to smell the tea until the oil began to fade away. The entire time the yuzu is lingering in the background.

Bottle: Gardenia and a background scent of rose Wet: Gardenia and more Gardenia It dried the same. Tea rose and vanilla were hinted in the back, but Gardenia and my skin are death together.

Regan is very sweet, like sugared vanilla. The orchid is there, but very faint. Not sure if this is a me scent or not.

This scent is a perfect blending of rose and lavendar. I always thought they would be too floral, but with the frankincense and musk they a blended just right.

This reminds me of sex on a hot and humid summer night.... The smell of sex sweat, ylang ylang and the entanglement of silk sheets comes to mind.

Opening the bottle I immediately thought of my husband getting out of the shower. Sex in a bottle! Wet: Still my man. I had to put it on him too and yep, it's what I like. Prominently a dew scent and white musk on him w/ florals in the background. Dry: The florals come into play, but the dew and the musk are still there. "A lyric, wistful blend of summertime Irish blossoms adn herbs...." I'm wanting to put on my Celtic Visions CD and just smell Oisin and ......

I've been smelling this and smelling this trying to get it right in my head. In the bottle: smells like candy covered strawberries Wet: very sweet, like spun sugar though not as candylike cotton candy Dry Down: I definitely smell the dogwood. I swear if I went and stood next to a tree outside the bees would land on me thinking I'm the tree. Dry: a powdery soft floral. Makes me think of those big pink powder puffs in my grandmothers body powders. Very nice. I'm hoping that my friend doesn't like it. Then I can snag her bottle too.

Whitechapel's citrus scent is definitely a wake-up scent for me, but so is Dublin.

I love Snake Oil and Spellbound, but Spellbound always gives me the best results.

A firey red in the bottle. I was expecting heat and I definitely smell something warm. Some are describing Dragon's Blood and that could definitely be it. The heat or warmth reminds me of a red hot candy.

Judgement smells like the incense my friend has burning in her home. I can't place the note, but it definitely reminds me of the first thing I smell walking into her home. Comforting and warming. Unfortunately, it turns very amber on me. Not a great scent for me to wear, but maybe to burn.

Temperance smelled very soapy to me. Like a floral citrus scent. As it dries down it becomes more of a light lemon scent on me. Very Nice.

It's not something that I can wear for sure. Too smokey. It unfortunately gave me a headache.

Ok, in the bottle it's dark and heavy. Wet: The Mexican cocoa is very strong. Almost too strong on me. Dry Down: The Mexican cocoa begins to fade and the wine comes to play. It also begins to smell very smokey. Dry: Still very smokey, but something else is ligering in the back that I just can't pick out. This isn't a scent that I would normally wear, but I'm going to give it a chance.

I have to second the note on Tempest. I have Dublin too and it does more of a morning dew scent on me, not rain. Tempest smells just like the storm rolling in.

Dorian smells like southern sweet tea in the summer. Kissed with a lemon. Just a wonderful feeling.

Electrifying, mechanized and chilly -- the scent of crushed blooms strewn on cold metal. Lush violet and neroli spiked hard with eucalyptus and a sliver of mint. This took the mint that I love and added the violet I was sure of. Making a dramatic cool minty and floral blend. I love mint scents in the winter, but this one is definitely a spring and summer scent. Now, I can wear my mint all year long.

At first sniff, I thought of Aeval. They smell so similar in the bottle. Sweet pea being the initial scent on them both. I was not sure how this one would work. Juliet has the initial scent of Sweet Pea, but as it dries the lillies come to play with the dry scent being a combination of lily, pear and white musk. Sweet pea is still there, but more as a lingering kiss than full blown.

My initial smell of this was plum, plum and more plum. I had to take a step back. Not too sure if I would like it or not. I put it on, but sparingly. I was just surprised when I wore it. The plum was always a noticable note, but not as strong as the initial sniff. The orchid and white musk with the jasmine as a very light note are a nice melding of scents.

From the prodding of SoapyRn, I ordered this in my Chaste Moon order and then it was discontinued. I will have to hunt this one down. It is perfect. Clean, floral and Victorian. I can't even break it into a wet and dry area. It made me think of walking around a garden with a beau on my arms. Romance...

I loved this scent as soon as I opened the bottle. Plumeria and damascus rose were the first scents that I picked up on. Wet: Plumeria, pear and the dew - smelled so fresh Dry down: Plumeria, pear, damascus rose and magnolia Dry: Pear, damascus rose, plumeria in the background and a hint of magnolia. the dew had left the scent by this time. A great scent all around.

Honeysuckle was the first thing that I smelled in the bottle. Wet: Honeysuckle and buttercup Dry: Jasmine with a touch of buttercup I am not a big fan of jasmine, but this one is very soft. I like jasmine with these notes.
