  1. I love this! I actually could have sworn it was an apricot pastry--but I can see strawberries now, instead of apricots. It is just beautiful. Fresh, sweet and delicious but not cloying or heavy. Great lasting power, too! I'm afraid getting the sampler this month was a grave mistake.

  2. I'm getting the cherry, and the white musk, and they combine beautifully. But I smell no chocolate, unless that's what's anchoring it and making it a little warmer and deeper. It isn't translating as chocolate for me, though.This is not what I expected from the notes, but I'm really, really liking it! (And I really, really can't afford it!)

  3. I put this one on and it was air freshener like whoa! That kind of pine. After my experience with how Sugared Myrrh changed, I put more on and waited for the magic to happen. And a few minutes later, it did! Sugared Pine Needles turns into a very low key, fresh, green, piney scent. The sugar keeps it from smelling like a tree. This also would layer beautifully with a lot of other sugared scents. I am really looking forward to playing mad scientist with these!

  4. This one was a morpher! It started out smelling very smoky--like something burning. Not much sweetness, either. Frankly, it was alarming. After a few minutes, the smokiness went away and turned resiny and sweet! It settled into a sweet, resiny scent that would layer beautifully with spices and musks (maybe even some fruits). The throw wasn't huge, so I would not hesitate to apply liberally.

  5. I went to Hawaii on vacation this year. On every island, a constant breeze wafted the most wonderful scent and this is what it smelled like--beautiful, sweet, soft plumeria! It is by no means high pitched, or strong, if you're worried about florals. It's just gorgeous.
