scourger Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 No full description yet, so these will have to do for now: Uh, oh...Danna's conjuring creepy things again.... Danna calls this a potion for opening portals and for having communication with the departed, as well as to help them on their way if they need to move on... This one had separated in its vial, and needed a lot of shaking before it looked blended. In the vial: Hmm. I smell olive oil and sweet greens. Not what I expected, and I'm not sure about wearing it. On, wet: I can't smell whatever the olive oil note was any more, so now it's most a fresh, slightly sweet greenery. Not bad, but not catching my attention either. Drydown: Wait! What's that?! Suddenly I get a whiff of an almost floral fruitiness. It's like sweet peaches and peach blossoms. I can almost make out the greenery at the edges still, but it is turning woody now. Late drydown: That hint of green turning woody goes even more woodsy, and takes on a licorice edge. Not the anise licorice of candy, more like a sweet sapped licorice twig. The fruity sweetness hangs on that wooden frame, coming and going in a very etherial way. Ghostly, certainly, but much more delicate and otherworldly than the ghostie on the label. Don't judge this scent by its wet phase! It must be worn to be smelled properly! This isn't one I'll wear often, the peachy/floral sweetness is a little on the sweet side for me, and while I'll chew on licorice root, it's not my favorite wood scent. Fans of Hoodoo will probably adore this one, as it has a similar feel, though a unique identity. Even if I don't wear it frequently, I will be keeping at least one sample of this potion in my arsenal because I thoroughly believe it works, intent-wise -- the moment that whiff of fruitiness hit my nose, something yanked my earring out of my ear. I mean, I was sitting in my car, I hadn't turned my head, and there was nothing that could have caught on the earring. I was like, "hm, I smell something peachy," and then my earring flew out of my ear. *only a little spooked* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ivy_fiddlefox Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 hmm I have yet to try this but I've wanted a bottle from the get go, and now that I hear about peaches, makes me want it even more.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sultry brunette Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 I am eagerly awaiting my package of goodies! I am jealous of those that already have theirs... The peach in this one actually makes me slightly nervous. Fruits tend to dominate on my skin and then morph into something not quite right. This is not always the case, however. Sometimes the fruit is subtle enough that it works just perfectly. That is my hope with this one... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scourger Posted November 17, 2008 Author Share Posted November 17, 2008 I have no idea if there is actually peach in this one or not. It's a fruity, florally, something or other, very light, with something that I associate with peaches to it, (white peaches, not the yellow kind,) and that's the best I can do without notes lists to guide me, I'm afraid.

Something Voodoo smelled good on you and you liked the peach in that. Maybe this one will be similar. Although you could STILL give it to me.

sultry brunette Posted November 24, 2008 Share Posted November 24, 2008 I don't smell any peach on me. I do agree that if you like Hoodoo, you will like this one. There is something in this that smells like green wood to me. There is a resin of some sort in here, perhaps dragon's blood... I also think that I smell cypress, but am not sure. There is definately a floral of some sort creeping around in the background. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jo Anna Posted November 24, 2008 Share Posted November 24, 2008 I put this baby on while I was loading myself up with the others, however, I put it on a special wrist spot. I swear I smell peach too. It's not an in your face peach but very subtle. I get the green smell, but it fades away rather quickly on me. I am very interested in this and am waiting to try this one last.

cheeseburger79 Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 Ha! Yeah really, someone up there said they were nervous about the peach, and for a second I thought it was because she didn't want to lose an earring! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
