HALLOWEEN PERFUMES! Ghost Farts- Possets

PERFUME: Ghost Fart

COMPANY: Possets

AVAILABILITY: Halloween Limited Edition

OFFICIAL DESCRIPTION:Oh good grief! It must be a ghost fart! This annual blend is back to haunt us all again. Ethereal, very unusual, and about as easy to explain as spiritual flatulence. Actually, it's real nice stuff and you really should try it, but don't try to explain it. Foody gourmand.

This perfume is one of the most popular blends that Possets has and it appears every Halloween. This is why I really wanted to try it when I was a possets newbie. It has just the most hilarious name ever! I don't really remember from which year my decant is from. I think it's 2010.

FROM THE DECANT/BOTTLE: Cherry, almond and musk.

WET ON SKIN: This goes foodie! Like almond cake. Sadly, it reminds me a cherry syrup that I used when I was a child. When I had first tried it I didn't like it at all, it was too much cherry. Now after some years of aging it's more of the musk and the almonds.

DRY DOWN: It has very good staying power but I just can't get over the cherry syrup comparison in my head.

FINAL THOUGHTS: It's not for me. But I can't only imagine how fun it would be if while I was wearing this someone asks me what perfume I wear!

Black Forest-Solstice Scents

Happy Valentines Day!

It doesn’t matter if you are not in love or if you don’t want to be with someone. To me this day is all about love! Love to your parents, friends, pets, yourself! It’s just the perfect reason to celebrate, eat chocolate, wear something red and your favorite Valentine inspired perfume!

Today, I am going to wear the same perfume as last year:  Black Forest from Solstice Scents! Before I tried this perfume I could swear that I hated cherrynotes! Even today they remind me a cough syrup. I got a sample of this and from first sniff I was in Love!  Angela did her magic again!

The picture is from a Black forest that I made last year. Today, my boyfriend isn’t so lucky as I didn’t had time to make one. I just bought us handmade white chocolate bars with cranberry!! Yum!

PERFUME: :  Black Forest

COMPANY: Solstice Scents

AVAILABILITY: They made this permanent!

OFFICIAL DESCRIPTION: Agarwood, Nagarmotha EO, Tobacco Absolute, Dark Chocolate, Milk Chocolate, Cocoa Absolute, Maraschino Cherries, Black Cherries, Hay Absolute, Sandalwood EO, Whipped Cream & a drop of Pink Peppercorn Essential Oil

FROM THE DECANT/BOTTLE: Cherry liquor and cocoa. Addictively good.

WET ON SKIN:  Cocoa absolute with milk chocolate. The cherry is prominent but like I said it remind me cherry liquor. The woodiness from the agarwood and Nagarmotha goes exceptionally well with the cherries and chocolate notes.  You can tell that she used high quality ingredients in this perfume. Some chocolate fragrances, they just don’t feel right and the dry to something like vanilla but not this one!

 In this scent all the elements are blended together very well to make an awesome blend.

DRY DOWN: I can smell this for hours when I wear it. I get chocolate and tobacco whiffs now and then and I really enjoy it!

Sweet Lavinia’s Risalamande-BPAL

AVAILABILITY: Limited, the Miskatonic Valley Yuletide Faire 2012

OFFICIAL DESCRIPTION:  Clots of rice pudding (harvested from the fair trade rice farms of Bokrug Lake!) and organic whipped goat cream topped with a sebaceous glob of black cherry sauce.

BEFORE I SMELL: I like rice scents, I found them comforting. I don’t like cherry thought…

FROM THE DECANT/BOTTLE: Fresh cream and toasted aromatic basmati rice! The black cherry sauce doesn’t overpower at all the other notes.

WET ON SKIN: Rice pudding! It doesn’t evolve much I have to say. No cherry!

DRY DOWN: Rice pudding but not overly sweet. Definitely wearable.

FINAL THOUGHTS: Want!!!
