sadtomato Posted June 12, 2009 Share Posted June 12, 2009 My package came today!! Yey! I didn't expect my custom to be in with everything else, I thought it'd take a while longer and come later...but I'm thrilled it arrived today It's gorgeous! The scents I chose for this one were Dragon's Blood, heavy & sweet cream, and ripe & juicy plum. Wowza! I asked that Dragon's Blood be the predominant note, softened and smoothed by the cream, with the plum not overpowering...and that's EXACTLY what I got. I was worried it would maybe be a little too sweet, but, nope...it's perfect. This truly is a smooth, creamy Dragon's Blood scent with a ripe, juicy plum kick that's blends wonderfully with the DB. The whole thing is warm, comforting, sensual, purple-y goodness and I can't stop sniffing myself since I put it on. Awesome job, ladies...you never disappoint. I am thrilled, as always!

j5382001 Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 Sounds lovely Erin!! Dragon's blood works nicely on my skin...not sure about plum though...never tried anything with much plum.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ivy_fiddlefox Posted July 15, 2009 Share Posted July 15, 2009 (edited) Dragon's blood with sneaky wafts of tart juicy plums. The cream also tones it down. Glad I got a bottle! if anyone would like, to split their bottle of AVV or blueberry bomb or hot treacle trollop for half my bottle of this though let me know.

luna65 Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 To me this has a similar character to Sweetly Smutty Lusty Musky except the emphasis is on the sweet rather than the smut. But it still hints at exotic pursuits, heh. The Dragon's Blood is wonderfully rich and it is indeed smoothed by the cream, but the plum gives it a candy-like quality, almost. I don't really sense the honey, but overall this is very lush and yummy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xev Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 This sounds wonderful. I'm not sure I know what dragon's blood smells like though. It is a plant resin, right? So I'm assuming its "resiny"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ivy_fiddlefox Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 Um I dont' think there's any honey in this luna. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luna65 Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 (edited) It depends on the source, IMO. Sometimes it has a very sort of overwhelmingly cherry thing happening, othertimes more of a dry resin incense evocation. It's itself, does that make sense? Once you smell dragon's blood you can almost always pick it out of a blend, or at least that's how it works for me. Ivy: from the description: Sweetened with a touch of Honey.

ivy_fiddlefox Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 oh i didn't see that... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sadtomato Posted July 27, 2009 Author Share Posted July 27, 2009 all my sugared blends tend to have at least a touch of "smut" i them, what can i say? i LOVE dragon's blood, but wanted this one to be not quite as head-shop and over the top smutty as the last smutty one so i went for the cream and plum mix with it. think it came out quite delectable and velvety smooth! e.

likeprettythings Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 I wore this to bed last night, it's sophiscated and soothing. I have a sample and might get a full bottle. Dragon,Phoenix, and Pearl has plum in it too, so maybe I'll try that too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j5382001 Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 I've tried Dragon, Phoenix, Pearl and it is a lovely womanly scent...but haven't yet tried Erin's Creamy Dragon Plum.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
esmeralda Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 This one is yummy!! my skin amps on the dragon blood note, and I get some creamy yet slighty juicy yumminess in the background. It's not very foody cause its more balanced with classiness. I can see someone wearing a dark purple dress and raven black hair wearing this...ooooh sexy!

likeprettythings Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 I had forgotten to add that since Autumn and Winter coming up soon, this would a great scent for those seasons. I'm looking forward to wearing this later in the year too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
