    Raspberry Apricot Sufganiyot

    This is a delicious jammy raspberry with a hint of apricot in the background! My 3rd favorite after pomegranate suf and fig/cranberry suf. Unfortunately I never really get the fried dough or donut aspect to these Sufganiyot scents. However, I can see the appeal because they do smell like like very delicious and accurate fruity jam. But I don’t know I was kind of in it for like the fried dough note as well lol. All is well, not to say that these are bad by any means. I still like to collect them and maybe the older ones like raspberry and blueberry are better in that aspect. I made a post on the parlor FB ground and people are saying they don’t really get the fried dough during any of the suf scents either. Also, as with the other suf scents, it really is only good for the first hour. After it looses the punchy fruit quality and smells like a sweet sticky mess

    Stage Blood

    An initial blast of gloriously punchy cherry! BPAL’s black cherry often goes wonky on my so I love when they use other cherry notes instead. This one is so damn delicious and fun! Almost a fizzy quality, this kind of reminds me of a school dance (chocolates and fruit punch lol). I definitely smell a little chocolate (I normally hate chocolate notes but this is just a little swipe of melty Milk chocolate goodness in the background!) totally see where the comparisons to cherry cordial happen. Further dry down is cherry candy (like jolly ranchers, a clear hard candy) and a tendril of dragons blood cherry fans, this is a must have!

    Golden Priapus

    Cobalt bottle (aged 10ml) • oil itself is dark and tacky • smells like my grandmothers unfinished basement •The rosewood and the pine are the most prominent, I’m not getting any vanilla or juniper upon first sniff • Vanilla does come out a little in the dry down • Recommend for fans of wood scents only Aged imp: on the other hand, this old imp from a separate source is a whole other story. Glorious vanilla and wood that sits wear it belongs (in the background!). I will hoard my imp and probably not take a chance on an older bottle

    Kitsune-Tsuki

    Mmm this is the Jasmine that I like. The fresh kind that’s also in the poinsettia gown. Not getting any plum. Such a lovely fresh scent with a present but not overwhelming floral. Smells like you stuck your arm into a beautiful garden in springtime. Definitely need to full size!

    Absinthe Robette

    I don’t get any lemon or fennel. Smells light and grassy, almost like a fake grass scent. Definitely late summer vibes. Was expecting more tbh!

    The Eye of a Vulture

    Pure sunscreen on me 😩
  7. I’m sorry, all I can say is “EW” I ate Indian food right before sampling this and tell me why it smelled exactly what I just ate? I have never had such a visceral reaction to a perfume before! I literally scrubbed my arm for 5 min with dish soap and have layered three strong oils to try and cover up the scent.
