May Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 The atmosphere and scents of all the naughty stuff people get up to on New Year's Eve. Fizzy champagne, spiced rum punch and an excess of other assorted booziness, a whiff of 'mary jane', and a sexy hint of perfumed and sweaty skin as warm bodies dance the night away - incense, warm vanilla and ylang ylang - and a last breath of Siberian Fir. When I first read the description above I thought this might be a bit smoky, stale and stuffy. Boy was I wrong. It's gorgeous, it's bright, fizzy and energetic. I can definitely pick out the hint of siberian fir in the background - but it is very in the background and there is almost a hint of fruit in here too - but I can't quite place it. I really love this perfume, and would buy a big bottle pronto, but unfortunately it's one of those my skin eats. So I am sulking right now...

May Well, Chai was gracious enough to send me her sample, and you are right.....this is veeeery unusual......I get a hint of something fruity too......on top of the fir.....probably the "rum punch".. And, it does smell almost "fizzy" like champagne. This is truly a treat......thank you Chai..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knjsavy Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 In the vial this was expensive champagne with exotic fruit on it went way left - it was like i woke up the next day after spending the previous night in a no name dive bar where smoke and cheap drinks got repeatedly spilled on me - not good, I am not sure what my skin is making wonky in this but sadly this isn't for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sultry brunette Posted January 18, 2009 Share Posted January 18, 2009 Wet: all I can smell is siberian fir. Drydown: The fir is less prominate. Now I get the boozy inscence and fruit punch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeliberateAngel Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 (edited) I received a sample of this with my last order. It indeed smelss evil and wicked. It also reminds me of a New Years Eve concert. I twice accidently dated 2 satan worshippers (most are not upfront about the loving satan thing satan is the father of all lies) . One loved music and I went with to Pigace, My Life with the Thrill Kill Kult and Ministry concerts. This would have perfect to wear to one of their concerts. I don't get a fizzy andlight scent but more of a strong, heavier gothy scent. It very womanly but something in the blend tempers it and adds a touch of wickedness! It's not really a scent that is "me" but definately meets the idea that the maker was going for! I will keep a sample around for days I am feeling wicked. This would be great with pheros in it.....

cyberianhussy Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 hilarious! upon application: i totally smell pot! also fir tree, the other notes are less prominant on me. i almost get a 'sigh' of mint, don't know if it is in this. this dries down gorgeously, a little zesty citrusey, that hint of perfume peeks through and a light touch of ylang-ylang (one of my fave ess. oils). i was so surprised! while i wouldn't buy a bottle ( as i have others i covet more) i get such a kick out of new years evil. if i was rich i'd buy a bunch up and pass them out as gifts on new years eve. it's actually a neat scent to wear, unusual and fun AND freshly feminine.

j5382001 Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 This one was light, sweet and fizzy on me.... I got a sample of this a while back...not bad though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paganlady Posted January 27, 2010 Share Posted January 27, 2010 (edited) Got a sample of this today.... Got the fizzy Champagne & fruit, but in the background the fir (not sweet smelly Christmas Tree but fresh, clean, evergreen) & just a hint of of, um, pot. Kind of like when someone smoked a joint about an hr ago & you can smell just a hint of it on them. Is very nice, hopefully it will stay very nice.....

libertine Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 Received a surprise sample of this one, too. At first, I didn't get the pot smell; just something like rosemary & ginger. After reading this post, I re-applied and totally smelled a fresh bag of weed. Still don't get the punch or champagne. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Invidiana Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 (edited) Now something very odd happened with this, considering my skin. I was expecting to amp something like sweet booze--like that in Down & Dirty. I got POT. Big time. There is a swoony, boozy, sweaty background, but still a lot of pot. This is so bizarre for me, because I usually don't amp stuff like that. Maybe the booze in this isn't sweet at all and the Mary Jane ended up being the sweetest thing so my skin latched onto it? Who knows. I think it would be amusing to keep my sample to play tricks on people, but this is just one of those things I could never wear to work or I'd probably be fired in -.034536 seconds.

paganlady Posted February 6, 2010 Share Posted February 6, 2010 I bought a big bottle of this on the sale thread today. I guess that when I finally do get a job I won't be wearing this one to work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JOC Posted December 4, 2010 Share Posted December 4, 2010 First of all, I am so glad that I read this thread. I'll be in big trouble if I were to bring this scent home or wear this on flight! Secondly, I will not wear this around my kids. I might wear it to work if i am certain that i will not be any meetings. Scent review - it is a very usual scent. It has a very bubbly and feminine feel, great scent for parties or on days when you need a boost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ravenwing Posted December 4, 2010 Share Posted December 4, 2010 To me this one smelled like dryer sheets. I was not a fan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JOC Posted July 3, 2011 Share Posted July 3, 2011 Wow the pot in this is really strong! I would be too embarrassed to wear it! Really? Is that how pot smells like? Interestingly I reached out for this last night. It makes me feel like I've drizzles a bottle of soda over myself ... Fizzy and sweet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It makes me feel like I've drizzles a bottle of soda over myself ... Fizzy and sweet. I am trying it again and now I can see the fizzy sweet smell you are talking about. But when I first put it on the pot smell is really strong! After it dries, it fades enough to let the fizzy punch come through and blends in with the other notes more.

BlueBear Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 I came upon this one on the trading board. From all the reviews, I was expecting this to smell like this party we stumbled on one time in college. Let me just say there were black lights everywhere...and it was 2002. Anyhoo, in the bottle i smelled fir and I think the ylang ylang. When i put it on, I got a lot of the fizz and fir. A very interesting scent. Almost masculine on me but not quite. After about ten minutes, the fir settles down and something almost sweet comes out. Everything else plays nicely in the background. I get little whiffs like Mmmm, vanilla. Mmmm, musk. Mmmm, pot. But I will say I probably couldn't idenntify it if I didn't know it was there. I feel like people who smelled it on me would just be like, "Mmmm, I know that smell..." but would never quite figure out what it was. I like this., but not one of my faves. Very playful scent though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m4mitchell Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 When I first sniffed it (not knowing the ingredients) I thought something smelled vaguely familiar and I couldn't put my finger on it. And yes, I think it is the pot smell. It's not obvious, and I don't think you need to worry about wearing this and having people call you out on it, but it is there.
