Musky, a little powdery, very green and bitter like dandelion and freshly cut flower stems, gets more figleafy as it dries :) Later it’s just vanilla, maybe a little caramel. The dandelion and fig was nice in a musk, just a little disappointed with plain vanilla, but it was pleasant.

Incense, mostly soap: sometimes soapy carwash, sometimes dog soap. Hideous.

Initially a sharp floral scent, fresh water, smells like a vase of freshly cut flowers as it dries, or a bath full of flowers and bubbles. A little citrus, maybe crisp, sugary fruit. Can imagine wearing for casual drinks, though maybe it’s a bit too florist shop for me to wear often. Oh, now it’s getting a little ambery. Want to try it layered with something orange. Getting soapy now, almost dishwashing liquid, sticks in the top-front of my mouth the same way D: Damn, I was enjoying that.

Powdery, floral, and fizzy, greener than the other ones like this I’ve tried. Almost like lime cordial, but not actually like lime. Gets warmer and vanilla-muskier.

Trying another pink powdery one for nighttime/sleeping. I don’t quite know how to describe it. Like a sour floralyness, sweet and sugary and powdery, but yeah there’s a sourness or citrus somewhere which is really interesting. Oh, I think it’s smokiness, there’s patchouli in the notes. I keep thinking ‘it smells like a bee’, but I don’t know what that means. Only lasts a few hours. It’s getting discontinued so is heavily discounted and very tempting…

Zesty citrus, floral, later it’s bodywashy and a little soapy, from a distance I smell musk. The citrus smell turns more clearly orange, which is nice. Nothing remarkable.

Felt like putting on something soft for bed. This is very powdery and sugary, kinda like a marshmellow. Fragrantica has coffee, leather, tobacco, tonka notes, but I haven’t got them yet(?). I think I’ll have nice dreams.

Smelt lot of things at Mecca today, this was what I went in to specifically try. Put some on my wrists and walked round for a bit. It’s a very true-to-life fig tree smell and nothing else. Mostly I smelt leaves, but at times a creaminess and vanillayness that’s not really for me. I love the smell of fig leaves, but on their own it’s a bit boring in a perfume. If it wasn’t so expensive it’d be a really nice hanging out at home smell, I enjoyed it a lot more in that context. There’s one of those straightforward Demeter ones that’s fig and those are cheap.

Fresh, citrus, a little bit of that marine body wash smell but not too bad, later a warm sweetness that’s woody and earthy-floral, a little femme and powdery, but still has that sharp freshness. It’s nice. Like a nice afternoon outside drinking prosecco smell that settles down elegantly as the sun sets. Not something I would wear often, but I like it. Hopefully I don’t have to go to another wedding in my life, but if I did I’d wear this.

Smells of sandalwood (apparently rosewood) and strong, thick, powdery floral notes like lavender. I don’t like it much, too much like incense in a hippy shop or drawer liners, but with a sparkly little sweetness underneath. But it was okay wearing this outside going to the shops when I didn’t have to smell it much/often. I don’t think I like lavender(/iris?) unless it’s in the background tying other smells together. Five hours later the main smell is a creamy vanilla.

I got sick of Bohemian Lime, so showered it off and put this on. Fizzy, powdery, sticky-sweet lolly smell. Very sweet, but a nice amount of wood and musk and patchouli underneath I think. I don’t notice the citrus, and only a little ginger via its sharpness. Later it’s still powdery, but more floral, kinda old-lady-y. My partner hates it, but I like smelling like lollies, so—
