Dian's Bud

This one is clean, watery melon with florals. I think it's okay- more what I expected Dirty to smell like actually, but with fruit. My mom loves it as a fresh everyday scent, so she's got the imp now.

Sundew

A carnivorous enchantress: diverse, lovely and graceful, emitting a sticky, glowing golden, sweet and terminally inviting scent.

I really wise that I could pinpoint what this smells like. It seems really familiar. Anyhow, this does smell fresh and plantlike, a little sweet. It's not usually the kind of scent I go for, but there's something appealing about this. It's not so green that it induces any of my allergies and it's not so sweet that it seems cloying. I really like the way it smells fresh without being clean or citrusy.

Death Cap

A warm, soft, ruddy scent, earthy and mild

I didn't get anything earthy out of this. On my skin, it smelled like sandalwood, vanilla, coconut and white florals. None of those things appeals to me, so this doesn't do a lot for me. Strangely, this is one of the few I've been spontaneously complimented on. Why doesn't anyone ever notice my favorites?

Overall, a lighter and inoffensive scent.

Black Lotus

Black lotus flower, amber, myrrh and sandalwood

I smell bubblegum out of the imp. Once it's on my skin, it's still pretty sweet and a little funky. Once it dries down, it's a very fuzzy, hazy sort of scent. I have a hard time discerning anything about it. I don't dislike any of these notes, but I tend to view them all as supporting notes. All together, nothing pops out and it seems murky. Meh.

Asphodel

The grey and ghostly flower that fills the fields of Hades.

I received this one as a frimp from the lab.

It's pretty much all white flowers. So, if you love white florals, this one's for you. Since I avoid them at all costs, this one was a wash-off for me. Glad I got the chance to try it, though. The lab's changed my mind about other notes.
