^Those I got as imps.

Then I also ordered a 5ml bottle of White Rabbit.

I can't wait! I'm so glad you posted this. I really love the names that they have for their oils too. I had to giggle a few times.

The names are AWESOME. I love reading all of the descriptions, and when applicable, the writings that inspired the scent.

I found your scent choices on the site, great choices! You will love love love love the White Rabbit.

Forgot to put yesterday's scent!

I wore
GLASGOW (from the Wanderlust collection)

Description: The rich scent of wild blackberry breezing over gentle rosy heather.

Imp nose: Blackberry and heather, just as the description.

Wet AND Dry on skin: This scent barely changed from wet to dry - the blackberry notes are very, very mild, and the heather bursts forth. I love it - my mum and dad were very into their ancestry and mum would always have a few potted heather plants around our house. I chose this imp hoping it would smell like home - and it does. Will probably buy a 5ml of this and use it around my house.

Oh, man! Glasgow was on my list, and I changed it out for something else! Now I wish I'd gotten it. Ah, well. There's always next time.

It's the first of all the ones I've tried that is just deliciously simple. It's straight up blackberry and heather. I love it.

My order is on its way! YAY!
just for fun.. I also have the descriptions of what I ordered! Because lets face it, the descriptions are so much fun!! lol

O:
The scent of sexual obsession, slavery to sensual pleasure, and the undercurrent of innocence defiled utterly. Amber and honey with a touch of vanilla.

SNAKE OIL:
By far, our most popular scent! Magnetic, mysterious, and exceedingly sexual in nature. A blend of exotic Indonesian oils sugared with vanilla.

TWO, FIVE & SEVEN:
***8216;Would you tell me,***8217; said Alice, a little timidly, ***8216;why you are painting those roses?***8217;

Five and Seven said nothing, but looked at Two. Two began in a low voice, ***8216;Why the fact is, you see, Miss, this here ought to have been a red rose-tree, and we put a white one in by mistake; and if the Queen was to find it out, we should all have our heads cut off, you know. So you see, Miss, we***8217;re doing our best, afore she comes, to***8212;***8217;

A huge bouquet of squished rose petals: Bulgarian rose, Somalian rose, Turkish rose, Damascus rose, red and white rose, tea rose, wine rose, shrub roses, rose, rose, rose***8230;
***8230;and just an itty bitty bit of green grass.

THE UNICORN
A misty, almost luminous perfume: wispy linden blossoms, white flowers, and a touch of sweet herbs.

LE SERPENT QUI DANSE
When, as by glaciers ground, the spate
Swells hissing from beneath,
The water of your mouth, elate,
Rises between your teeth --

It seems some old Bohemian vintage
Triumphant, fierce, and tart,
A liquid heaven that showers a mintage
Of stars across my heart.

A sinister, darkly seductive scent inspired by poetry of Charles Baudelaire. Violet entwined with vanilla and gardenia.

AMSTERDAM
Tulips, peony, fresh flowing water and crisp green grasses.

Fran, I so KNEW that O would be on your shortlist... haha. I'm really curious as to what that will smell like!

Oooooh, LE SERPENT QUI DANSE sounds lovely! Crud. I haven't even received my first order, and I'm already wanting to order again. Allie, I hope you're happy.

Today's scent is: POLYNESIAN POP (from the Atomic Luau Lounge collection... the vial in my pic with the cool label!)

Description: Ginger ale, white rum, and a squeeze of orange.

Imp nose: Can't really smell a white rum, but it is gingery and orangey and omg amazing. I can smell the fizz, which is a bit weird and awesome

Wet on skin: Very fruity and fizzy. I want a drink of this stuff.

Dry on skin: The fizziness is still there, subtle, and lots of ginger and orange. I like this scent a lot. It's simple and reminds me of summer cocktails. Definitely a warm-weather scent, I'm putting it on my list of 5ml wants.
