Bewitching Brew Review: Ultraviolet

Electrifying, mechanized and chilly -- the scent of crushed blooms strewn on cold metal. Lush violet and neroli spiked hard with eucalyptus and a sliver of mint.

Acquired: imp/bottle from tempete13 @ lj

In the Bottle: Menthol licorice.

Wet: Minty licorice with a floral that must be violet.

Drying: Again, a minty floral with.. something I'm not liking.

Dry: Okay, this is starting to smell like minty funk on me. I don't know if it's body chemistry issue, but it started off sort of nice an now it's very not. Menthol funky ick with a powdery violet.

Fade: After twenty minutes, the scent has mellowed out a bit in to a less potent funky floral.

Verdict: First reaction is that this is not a keeper. The blend does not agree with me at all and this is definitely going into the swap box.
