i'll admit i'm not normally a fan of "golden" scents, but this is a wonderful exception! a whole lot of buttercream and....surprisingly yes, a stick! actually I can't quite tell if it's stick or the scorched marshmallow, but the two are probably melding so well together, it's just a mildy "burnt" quality that makes this so nice and cozy. it's not listed in the description, but I do smell (what seems to be) a bit of sandalwood which is keeping this from going sour on the skin. (buttery notes have a tendency to do that for me) also somehow this is reminding of hot buttery pancakes....UGHHHH... oh, how I love this one. so happy, foodie, toasty, and warm. unfortunately this fades pretty quickly on my skin, so much that i'm only left with a faint honey and extra charred stick after an hour. sigh. I would love to have this in a hair gloss format because I believe it would last sooo much longer. i'll just continue to slather my wrists and neck in the meantime. ❤🍯 WIN!

ugh, swoon. one of favorite notes EVER is opium for it's hypnotic and decadent profile and this does not disappoint. I agree that it's mostly sugared opium but I do get a slight tinge of lavender if I sniff deep enough. this one attracts attention and smells expensive. my partner and my daughter immediately said "omg you smell DELICIOUS." i'm obsessed, but this is a very particular blend. opium is very powdery so just keep that in mind. throw is fantastic and it lasts all damn day.

oh this is just beautiful. immediately I pick up the sweetness of the inky musk, resinous benzoin, and VIOLETS. 💜 the patchouli is there, but to me it's soft and grounding. the labbies weren't kidding when they said sugared violets, but it's not cloying in the slightest. after letting it settle, I'm able to pick out the rose and champaca more distinctly, but not really getting the lavender and myrrh. (my skin eats these) but do not fret, every note blends so beautifully here it makes my nose cry happy tears. overall it's a delectable creamy floral with a dark & sticky base. perfect for the transition to teenager-hood, and for goth date night lol. glad this was a blind buy!

I agree with the above posters in that I mainly get incense and a very sweet apple. slightly boozy and very vintage smelling in my opinion. I thought I would enjoy this more but i'm honestly not a huge fan. there's something a little bathroom soap about it that isn't working on my skin. I was hoping to pick up more of the stinky oud if anything! this was a blind buy off of etsy, womp womp.

oooh. this is nastayyyy. and innocent. and dirty. and sweet. super sharp and almost green in the imp, but on the skin it mellows out beautifully. all three notes are highly discernible on me, but I'm amping the ginger hardcore. it's a hot and hazy kind of ginger which makes this simply delectable. I kind of smell like a sexy, boozy gingersnap cookie. this scent is very 'RED' imo, and exactly what I would expect a sleazy BDSM dungeon to smell like. full bottle upgrade immediately.

so admittedly, I picked this up because I am mermaid-obsessed. and it is indeed very pleasant. at first it totally reeked of white florals reminiscent of my grammy's bathroom...but just WAIT. my oh my, does it transform. it is a little indolic on my skin, but I LOVE that. it morphs into this beautiful hot house incense-y floral that is downright seductive. nose to skin, you do get a whiff of that vanilla cream scent that ties every other note together. perfect for a hazy summer day. smells expensive too. seriously cannot stop sniffing. unf.

this wasn't originally on my "buy" list, but i'm glad I got it anyway. to make it simple: to me it's like juicy cherry vanilla mixed with classic head-shop incense. just...mmm, delicious. if you're looking for something juicy yet mature, this is it. it's almost vampiric in nature. it's heavy and smells EXPENSIVE. throw is fantastic and this will age like a fine wine. not one I will reach for all the time, but definitely a winner for those chilly and sexy date nights.

ah, blood kiss. let me say, when this ages long enough, it becomes a very good sister scent to 'O'. just a delicious honeyed vanilla with a juicy wet cherry overtone. the musk underneath gives it a sexy full-bodied feel. it goes on warm and stays warm. so sensual and inviting. if you're not a fan of vetiver, i'm not really picking it up. if it's there, it's blending very well with the wine and musk to make a slight animalistic profile.

this is a naughty one. i'm oud obsessed so I may be biased, but I adore this. the benzoin and oud make this a little stanky, be warned. so beautiful though. very heady and woody. the "blush" rosy aspects of this blend really pop and the sandalwood helps to soften it out. one of the few oils where I can pick out each note, despite it blending so well together. very glad I picked up a full bottle of this sexy oil! it's mature, and certainly evokes images of "red."

sharp, green, and almond-y with a hint of roses. this one is....strangely beautiful. it has the essence of commercial perfume but there is a sinister underbelly to this. it is a love potion, afterall. this one goes on pretty strong but dries to down to a powdery feminine scent, and it does still retain a lot of the lush greens. let me be clear in that this is NOT my usual kind of blend, but may be bottle worthy for the conjure properties alone. I think a man of the poised and gentlemanly variety would swoon over this. someone who is especially into nature, because this blend is that.

2020 version: WINNER. absolute winner. everything I have ever wanted in an autumn scent. genuinely smells like fall and is so atmospheric. I may be in the minority but I find this to be straight up sexy. like "be my druidess" type o negative vibes. my skin is amping the crisp and damp woods, clove ciggie smell, and boozy apple cider. picking up some pine tar too which may be the dark patchouli. just....dreamy sigh. beautiful, evocative, naughty, and downright moody. will definitely be picking up any iterations of this scent that become available.

sigh. I definitely wanted this to be sexier than what it truly is. all I'm getting is sweet and spicy poison berries with a tiny hint of tar. no leather at all in this. that's it. honestly it is pretty wintery/medicinal and like carpet cleaner. will not be upgrading.

when I first applied, I was hit with an overwhelming sweetness that actually made me nauseous. like a mixture of a cinnamon broom and a gingerbread cookie. I love those two scents....but only on those specific items and not my skin, unfortunately. after awhile, it does morph into 100% dry cinnamon and nutmeg. I smell the tiniest hint of sandalwood which gives it a musky undertone, but this just doesn't work on me. would recommend if you want to smell like a winter spice blend though.

classically vintage and masculine scent. I would certainly want my man to wear this on a fancy cocktail date. it is also very evocative of, surprise, a worn leather jacket in the rain. the vetiver gives it a lush green smell which is simply irresistible, and I am not a huge fan of vetiver usually. probably won't be a bottle upgrade because it's simply too masculine for me. if you want a blend that smells like MAN though...go for it!

buttery, spicy, boozy pumpkin! mmmm....I didn't know I needed this in my life so bad. I too am getting a whiff of honey under all of that dirty pumpkin and rum. absolutely f'in delicious. throw and longevity is great. I can't wait to wear this when the renn faire rolls around in autumn.
