    Peach Sticky Rice

    This has a chewiness I really wasn't expecting but I absolutely love it! The peach is fresh and juicy, very much a sun-warmed ripe peach over a more perfume-y peach, and I'm so glad. The coconut adds depth and creaminess that makes this an immediate favorite. I'm so glad I took a chance.

    Old Woman With Cat

    I absolutely agree with Little Bird, this is autumnal spice, very cozy and snuggly like a wool sweater that’s been well loved. It’s sweeter than I would’ve expected from the notes, but I love that! I can’t stop sniffing myself.

    Laurel Wreath

    I love the smell of this, but there is enough spice in it to give me a skin rash, so its scent lockets only. I definitely smell the spice upfront, with a bit of lemon brightness. I wish I got more greenery! Monocainsheresy nailed it by calling it a Christmas candle.

    Faun Einer Amsel Zupfeifend

    Oooh I really really like this! I'm still learning how to recognize scent notes - I get the wild grasses and vetiver, but there's a sweetness, too. Not exactly fruit-y but also... not NOT fruity? Hard to pin down and describe, but I find this to be like a little bottle of summer, lazing in the park grass, watching the clouds drift by.

    Dead Leaves, Praline, and Sheer Vanilla

    This one bewilders me. In the bottle, this smells almost... sour and bitter to me, like earwax?? On the skin it starts off with that but as it dries I get more dead leaves. I'll report back if I ever get vanilla or praline, but so far, 30 min in, I'm not getting those notes at all.

    Roses, Pearls, and Amethysts

    Eeep this is my 3rd? 4th? review on here - I don't have a very fine-tuned nose, so please bear with me! This smells STRONGLY floral on my skin, powerful rose and geranium with some patchouli giving it a groundedness. I don't smell the plum, but that may be my newness at identifying scents. It's not my usual type of scent - I'm a gourmand girly - but I like this a lot for a romantic date where we're canoodling in a moonlit garden on a warm summer night.

    The Extraction of the Stone of Madness

    I am very new to posting reviews, and I do not have a particularly fine tuned sniffer... But I really enjoy this scent! initially, I got a very strong, herbal lavender with moss and greenery, like the long abandoned herb garden at the ruins of an old church. After dry down, I’m getting a little bit of that smokiness as well, like a leaf pile that was set on fire in the town center and is drifting towards the abandoned herb garden. I’ll be very curious to give it another sniff in a weeks time.

    Pumpkin Trash Bag

    This is definitely crunchy leaves on my skin, with the freshness of a scooped out pumpkin. I haven't caught the orange yet, but I don't honestly mind - for me this is the fall version of grassy "freshness", that dead plant matter smell, and I love it.
