  1. The first scent that comes out on me is the iris. I was surprised at how green it was initially. It is a spicy green floral. It is imporant to note that the spice is from the flowers, not from any resins or other "spicy" ingredients. It is a sharper green spice.

  2. Wet, I smell apple and pear. It is yummy. After it dried down, the mint came out to play with an undertone of peach.

     

    I have not had time to check out the effect, but I can see how it would work. If applied to the back of the hands, the mint will make you feel more alert and the fruit may make you less likely to notice mild hunger.

  3. This one is wonderfully complex. I can smell the amber, fig and buttered rum. There is also a wonderful sweetness and just a hint of tart in the background. I can tell the green is there, but it is not at all what I thought it would be when I read that there was fir in it. The green is very subtle and yummy.

  4. I have so many new ones to choose from, it is hard to narrow it to five...

     

    Right now, I would have to go with:

    1. 12th Night in New Orleans
    2. LP Green
    3. Native Soil
    4. Robin & Marian
    5. Dirty Sexy

  5. Cool, icy and beautiful. It is very comforting and uplifting at the same time. Peppermint is known to assist with recall and concentration, so this would be a good one to wear to exams. It is also very relaxing to me and will be a perfect evening scent when I am relaxing with a good book. This smells identical to sweetened iced mint tea (herbal).

  6. The lily comes out strongest on me when wet. As it dies down, the rose, amber and cream start to come forward. Wet, it is a little overpowering. However, it is lovely when it dies down. Give it about 15-20 minutes before you decide, as this one definately needs time to develop.

  7. I'd agree with you on Cougar, but for me the smell of the SS blend is VERY strong. I can only wear Super for Women if I layer it with something else to tone down the metallic quality I experience. It works, though, which is why I was motivated to find a way to deal with it. ^_^

     

    If you want the SS effect, but don't like the scented version - I would recommend ordering the add-in. I don't particularly like the scent of Super for Women, so I ordered a bottle of 12th Night with SS blended in. I have a bottle with and a bottle without. I don't even notice the scent of the SS in mine.

  8. This is a very dark scent. The wood comes out strongest on me when wet. It has an incense type feel. I can smell the musk and amber after it dries down. It has a dry powdery undertone to it. Definitely a more masculine scent than some of the others I have. I am enjoying it.

  9. Beautiful. The musks are nice and the florals are deep. I can smell the foundation of patchouli. I think I also pick up a hint of amber. This one did very well with my skin. The floral was just barely there in the background.

  10. This one is one of my favorites. It is very creamy and warm. The spices (allspice, cinnamon, clove) are the prominant notes on me. They sit on a faint cloud of patchouli and sugar. It is a wonderful blend with the different layers coming out throughout the day.

     

    Edited to add that it is 8 hours later and the scent is still with me. much softer, but still beautiful.

    This is a really nice spring floral with a hint of fruit. There is a soft musky/amber undertone. I can smell a hint of a sweet vanilla. It is really nice and soft. It is on my "bottle" list.
