Lynne's Temple of the Goddess

[goddesslynne]

Ladies, I can't thank you enough for my fragrance!!

 

This will definitely be a hit with the Honey Ho's!! Wet, there is an intense, almost herbal honey scent. As it dries down, the muskiness comes out, along with a touch of vanilla, and at about 30 minutes there are hints of sandalwood and incense.

 

I'm loving it!!

That sounds amazing, you caught my attention at Honey Ho!

Oooh... this is pretty. Wet: honey and powdery amber. It reminds me of BPAL's O (if we're allowed to compare to other brands. If this is frowned upon, my apologies.), but lighter.

 

Unfortunately, as it dries, the honey melds into the amber & then fades completely. Sadly, no sandalwood on me. All that's left is the powderyness. And while it's a pretty powder, it's not something I'd reach for to wear. Hmm. Or so I think. I could be wrong, as I do keep sniffing my wrist rather compulsively.

 

EDIT: This layers really beautifully with Oriental Gardenia. Mmm.

The honey in this fragrance actually liked my skin this time. I wore this to bed last night. Honey was dominant through out dry down, then the musk came through. If anyone has smelled Skin Musk by Coty, it took on a honey musk tone similar to that.

I forgot to add that Skin Musk doesn't have honey in it, but the musk in Temple Of The Goddess is similar to that on me.

agreed - it's soft like skin musk but with a big boost of honey. Totally a honey ho scent. There is almost no throw though - maybe it's my chemistry.

I think it's your chemistry. I thought the honey disappeared on me within a half hour -- turns out it was just the other notes (skin musk?) amping like crazy & drowning it out. When I woke up the next day, I was pretty surprised to accidentally catch a whiff of honey from the night before (8+ hours later), so there's at least a throw of a few inches 'cause I certainly didn't go sniffing at it, I was sure the scent would be long gone.

Could well be the chemistry - this lasts at most 2 hours which is a bummer because it's lovely. But sugared honeycomb lasts much much longer and hovers like a cloud of fab. Wouldn't be surprising - I seem to really amp notes in other scents that most others don't.

 

Skin chemistry. Total mystery. :-(
