Sniffed: Cream soda and root beer? Or maybe a vanilla ice cream root beer float, but not nearly as sweet or foody as any of those sound. Light and almost effervescent.
Wet: Stronger, sweeter, but also tart - almost fruity? But still with a sort of herbal root beer edge. Somehow a little medicinal, but not unpleasantly.
Dry: Sweeter and more and more herbal over time. Definitely some type of fruit, maybe an orange citrus, as well, but it's faint.
Later: Huh. It's all tart-sweet fruit, but there's a hint of some evil floral (I suspect iris, because I get faint rot and soap). Definitely citrus of some type, but not a type that likes me. Much less sweet than earlier, and all the root beer and fizz has gone.
Summary: I can see how people would get absinthe and powder from this, and maybe a little mint. Candies, definitely. I don't get rose, though. Poor throw and fades fast.

Sniffed: Slightly soapy cologne. Rather masculine, a little sharp, though it's not overly strong.
Wet: More herbal, more soapy, and almost...minty? It smells quite green to me. Slightly bitter edge.
Dry: Herbal soap.
