In the imp: Chocolate, and nothing but. Wet: Melted chocolate. Yum. Drydown: This is gobs of milk chocolate. Not the expensive dark chocolates of Candy Butcher or the sticky rich chocolate of Lump of Coal, but pure milk chocolate, like a handful of Hershey Kisses. There's not much throw, this is definitely one that you have to be close to sniff.

A shot of pure, self-indulgent euphoria! A scent that is very, very wicked in its own way: the serotonin-slathered scent of pure milk chocolate.

In the imp: Violet! This smells a lot like Faith. Wet: Violet, with a hint of clove underneath. Drydown: The clove and incense take over and smash down any other note that tries to come out. If I were an incense and clove fan, this would be a favorite.

The pinnacle of wealth, luxury, self-indulgent pleasure, voluptuousness and sensuality. Bright violet with sweet clove, Mediterranean incense notes and tonka bean.

This smells like flowery toilet bowl cleaner on me. Thankfully it faded very, very quickly. This definitely does NOT love my skin.

Yet mark'd I where the bolt of Cupid fell: It fell upon a little western flower, Before, milk-white, now purple with love's wound, And maidens call it love-in-idleness. Reviewed 09/14/2008 In the imp: Creamy fresh, sweet floral. Wet: Chemical flowers. Drydown: This smells like flowery toilet bowl cleaner. Thankfully it faded very, very quickly.

In the bottle: Barely there berry and sugar. Wet: Thick, sugary syrup, strawberry, and glittering candy. This is strong. Dry: This is like Strawberry Moon and Treat #1 with a drizzle of Karo syrup on top and just a hint of a linen note to keep it from being sickly sweet. Lots of throw on this one, to my surprise.

Terminal sugar rush. A little goblin's candy bag, upended. Smushed candy corn, rock candy dust, marshmallow gunk, strawberry goo, spun blue sugar, globs of salt water taffy, and lint.

CCXXXIV (234) In the imp: Spearmint, and nothing but. Wet: I could have sworn I just swiped some perfume on...where did it go? Dry: Oh, there it is. This got very faint for a few minutes then came back. This is pretty much a spearmint single note. It's got a much stronger throw than the normal lab mints, and it lasts a good, long time. Verdict: I should have known from the number (I love sequential numbers like 234!) that this would be lovely. I think I'd like to layer this with MB: Tokyo Stomp or one of the Lick It line.

Irrelevant and Disturbing Surreal Crawdad Dream

In the bottle: Lots of lovely blueberry candy, something sharp and clean (the tea?), and a hint of flowers. Wet: No! Go away soap, go away! *sob* Drydown: This turns into a perfectly lovely blend, the soapiness fades away and leaves a crisp, clean blend that reminds me of freshly laundered linens with flower petals pressed between the sheets. But that sweet blueberry candy scent never comes back, and that's what I really wanted. Wahhh. I hate you, body chemistry. -

An irrelevant, disturbing, and surreal scent: red currant, green tea, red musk, Hawaiian ginger, benzoin, vanilla, coriander, squash blossom, and blueberry.

Reviewed 07/28/2008 CLXVI (166) In the bottle: Delicious fruit punch and a champagne note. Wet: Yummy, red fruits and champagne, mixed together. Dry: There's definitely cherry and strawberry in there, possibly grape. This *sparkles*. It's sweet and super-fruity. Medium throw, loooong wear length for a fruity scent. Verdict: If I had a signature scent, THIS WOULD BE IT. Dearest Lab Staff, you are absolute geniuses and I love you dearly. The only downside to my bliss is that this is the only one of my CT4 bottles that wasn't full past the neck. This one is barely to the shoulder, and therefore must be jealously hoarded and guarded. SOB!

Reviewed 07/28/2008 CLIII (153) In the bottle: Holy pine and eucalyptus! Wet: Eeek! Pine! Dry: Pine, eucalyptus, some kind of dark berry, and that note from Crypt Queen that goes all to Vicks on me. After grabbing my CQ bottle and testing these side by side, they smell VERY similar to my nose. Pretty strong throw. Verdict: I can't wear Crypt Queen, and this isn't working for me either. I think I'll try to swap this for a different CT4.

Reviewed 07/28/2008 CXLIII (143) In the bottle: Fruity musk, a hint of something dry and dusty that makes my nose twitch. Wet: Fruity and spicy. It's a tart fruit, but not pomegranate, maybe cranberry? Dry: There's definitely a musk under the tart, juicy fruit. My nose is twitching if I sniff too deeply, the way it does with Shango, so I think there may be some chili. Medium throw. Verdict: I love this! The spiciness gives it a fall feel, but it's not overpowering and could be worn year-round.
