The Dark Side of Fire: cinnamon, bitter almond, and neroli. Heavily spiced, torrid, and possibly conflagrant.
In the vial: Mmmmmn, rich heavy almond in a bottle.
Wet on skin: At first, this was the most heavenly mixture of almond and cinnamon imaginable. I smelled delicious.
Dry on skin: As it dried, I had a very fiery, pervasive reaction to the cinnamon - I'll have to seriously dilute this one or maybe even get a scent locket. Bad, red reaction. It smelled more cinnamon than almond but still with a whiff of my lovely almond now and then.
After a few hours: In the long run, it smells like a rather nondescript red-hot. Very similar to the way Chimera dries down on me. I love the first couple phases of this, though, and want to try it again - maybe in a burner or get myself a scent locket finally.
bpal: bewitching brews,
