Shanghai
The crisp, clean scent of green tea touched with lemon verbena and honeysuckle.
In bottle: lemony tea goodness
On me (wet): sweet honeysuckle nicely balanced by a very crisp, clear citrusy note. I can't smell the tea anymore. Sad-making.
On me (dry): the tea is back, providing a lovely undercurrent to an already pretty scent.
Verdict: ...yep, it was the jasmine making me all sad in New Orleans. This one Lily likes~
Glasgow
The rich scent of wild blackberry breezing over gentle rosy heather.
In bottle: perfumey, but sweet
On me (wet): Oooh, the blackberry's coming out more.
On me (dry): ...Oh, wow. This scent works like heaven with my skin. It's sweet and warm and absolutely lovely. I keep wanting to smell myself - and have to keep telling myself this stuff isn't edible.
Verdict: Love, love, love! This one I may be getting a bottle of.
Morocco
The intoxicating perfume of exotic incenses wafting on warm desert breezes. Arabian spices wind through a blend of warm musk, carnation, red sandalwood and cassia.
In bottle: Spicy - exotic is a good word for it.
On me (wet): Smoky and heady. Am I getting some incense in there?
On me (dry): This feels like a very mature scent - I can't put it in quite another way. A bit intoxicating, too.
Verdict: Not exactly 'me', but I would love it on somebody else, particularly a female someone. I have two imps and will probably be keeping one of them.

Fresh Morocco smells like dirty pennies on me, which made me sad.
The imp of it that I've had for a year or so, though? I tried it when I was looking for stuff for you and it is love.
And yeah, it'd smell *good* on another girl.
