Woodsy Vanilla
Such a perfect cuddle scent…it recalls classic 90s vanilla musk with a little more of an earthy/woodsy vibe. Reminds me a bit of Le Covent Des Minimes Cologne of The Missions which is re-selling for hundreds now. The cedar is very good, realistic like real cedar shavings not like the fuzzy synthetic woods so common in fragrances now. I love Kyse, they have such quality fragrances for great prices, they are undoubtedly one of the best indie gourmand brands.
Citrus Spice Candle
Oh no. Oh no, no, no! this one smells just like a holiday citrus spice candle. It also triggered my allergies and had me sneezing and nose running for about half an hour after applying. If you like the idea of a waxy citrus that smells like a holiday candle then by all means, but if you’re looking for a sexy scent that matches the title you might be sorely disappointed.
Bitter Earthy Oddball
Salamanca is an experience for sure… it’s a very bitter slightly pungent green leather with a musty/earthy base. Im sure it isn’t for everyone, but if you are a fan of classic green leathers like Cabochard or Bandit I can’t imagine it not being a love. I really appreciate the quality natural ingredients Olympic Orchids use in their fragrances and since I have developed perfume allergies and miss those strong old school scents having one like this that I can actually wear is a godsend.
Sweet Spicy Autumn
Loggia is sooo good! It’s a perfectly balanced blend of woods, spice, smoke, booze and sweet. It leans slightly gourmand without veering away from the atmosphere and going full on sweetie. Loggia is a perfect fall in a bottle scent that avoids that horrid pumpkin spice candle route so many Autumnal oils take. Don’t get me wrong, I love pumpkin spice but generally the oil based should be avoided WITH THE EXCEPTION OF: (also from Solstice) Jack & The Devil and Gunnersons Pumpkin Patch. If you’ve been hunting for smoky, boozy, spiced vanilla then look no further, Loggia is delicious. I only have a sample but I will definitely get a full size this year and throw it into my fall vibes rotation.
Licorice Love
Well I don't know how UDV did it but this is DEAD ON original formula Lolita
Lempicka. Same anise, sour cherries, touch of green. Honestly if I did a side by side comparison I probably wouldn't be able to tell the difference. I would buy a bottle if this over current formula L.L any day. I am consistently amazed by the quality of these UDV cheapies. The silage is low to moderate and lasted a good 5 hours before I felt the need to touch up
