Yay! Shipment from Ava!
Dragon's Reverie-Opium-laced dreams of flame, plunder, power and fury: dragon’s blood resin, poppy, amber and ylang ylang.
In the bottle Spicy floral
Wet on left wrist Spicy sweet. Reminiscent of Blood Amber.
Dry down More sweet than spicy. Almost no spice.
Verdict
Crossroads-A chill twilit garden of blooms over dry earth and mosses, heavily laden with incense and offertory herbs.
In bottle Sharp and almost medicinal
Wet on right wrist Sharper and very medicinal. Callie says she can smell the 'dry earth' on both of us.
Dry down Hut with a dirt floor and wet moss, almost mildew but not quite. I actually feel this is a good Zombie smell, also. Just without the dead roses.
Verdict
Fallen-Cherubic white sandalwood and golden musk with a dark halo of amber, a breath of imperial florals, unbending woods, and the shadow cast by vetiver and violet.
In bottle I smell maple candies, Callie smells more dirt
Wet on left back handI'm still on dark maple candy, Callie has moved onto grass
Dry down Starting to get that grass smell, myself. Starting to have some floral come through.
Verdict
Sybaris-The pinnacle of wealth, luxury, self-indulgent pleasure, voluptuousness and sensuality. Bright violet with sweet clove, Mediterranean incense notes and tonka bean.
In bottle Warm and spicy. I can really get the sweet clove.
Wet on right hand Clooooooooove. So much cloooove. (Callie smells gingersnaps)
Dry down CLOVE something else CLOVE
