Alice (Mad Tea Party): Curiouser and curiouser. Milk and honey with rose, carnation and bergamot.
Vial: honey and rose
Wet: honey, rose and something. Very faint
Drydown: cinnamon-ish honey, bergamot?
Dry: Almost a tea scent. Light florals. Nice but weak. 8 hours later, still sweet, dusty roses.

Bruised Violet Compound: (Doc Constantine's Pharmacopia) Promotes vigor in undeath, and relieves the discomforts and complaints so common to incorporeal spirits! The learned and eminent scholar Alessandro Cagliostro once remarked, “Long experience has taught me to prize Doctor Constantine’s Compounds above all others!”
Crushed violets, red currant, patchouli root, and Spanish moss.

Vial: pale oil mossy patchouli
Wet: patchouli and moss. Patchouli always gets wild on me
Drydown: Moss very strong. Hints of violet (which seldom works on me). Smells kinda like playdough on me.
Dry: wood scent, moss. Patchouli gone. Violets and currents never came out to play. Weird chemistry. Yuck.

Grandmother of Ghosts: (Excolo) Mania, Roman Goddess of the Dead, Matron of Madness, Governess of the Ancestral Spirits, Bestower of Divine Frenzy. Her scent swirls with a high-pitched tumult of laurel, stargazer lily, splintered woods, peony, mandarin and white musk, and is spiked with pale pepper.
Vial: Sharp floral, some wood
Wet: wood and musk
Drydown: flowers showing up more, and pepper. A ritual scent, not a wearing scent, I'm thinking
Dry: settling into a sharp floral. Splintered is a really good word for it. No one note stands out. Kinda powdery and old-lady smelling. Reminds me of Santo Domingo without the tobacco. Meh.
