Emporio Armani Remix She by Giorgio Armani

I liked this one, it has a nice wooden base and some tones that smell a bit like vanilla. I had a hard time deciding which one I liked the most from the paper strips, between this one and the original She. They are different but appealed to me almost to the same amount. Finally I tried this on my skin, where it smelled very nice.
I find this to be very much like Euphoria by Calvin Klein, I had this on my left arm Euphoria on the right and when I asked my friends which one was better, they all thought that they smelled very much alike. This is a bit simpler than Euphoria though and quickly fades onto basenotes. Perfumes usually last very long on my skin (often even two showers!) but this one faded within a few hours.

Emporio Armani He by Giorgio Armani

Very nice scent. I loved it when I smelled it on my husband (who is 33). This perfume is very masculine but not too old-fashioned manly, it's for a man who is secure in his masculinity and doesn't need to smell whisky and cigars to feel like a real man. This perfume has a very nice and warm base of wood and musk without it becoming too overpowering. Light and just enough to want you to smell it over and over again...

Truth Calvin Klein by Calvin Klein

Nice scent. On my skin it blends in with my natural scent and leaves a nice vanilla-wood-scent. Very unobtrusive. Nice but a bit boring. I prefer Euphoria which has the same base but a little "more" going on.

Truth Calvin Klein Men by Calvin Klein

I liked Truth for Women, but this one was not at all as good. It smells wet newly cut grass, on a wooden base. It has the same basenote of sweet wood as the women's version, but is very green. I seriously think that it smells of green grass.

Obsession by Calvin Klein

The perfume is way to heavy for me, it's a very heavy and bold scent. I loved the body lotion though, in the body lotion the scent was just right, subtle and much more fresh. The body lotion took away some of the heavyness and left a wonderful lighter smell, I couldn't stop smelling my arms.

cK one by Calvin Klein

I loved this when it was new and popular. My boyfriend at the time had it and I fell for the smell completely. It didn't smell as good on my skin though, so I only used it a few times after I bought it and then put it away. Nowadays I'm quit tired of it, but I react every time I smell it on someone. It's quite musky, a little too much for my taste.

Seattle Rain by The Goth Rosary

I agree with the previous poster, this is a very clean scent and smells just like rain. Not marine at all, but smells like that fresh outdoor scent just after a spring rain. Very fresh.

Gothic Rose by The Goth Rosary

Gothic Rose smells like dark red roses, real roses. This is not like those artificial rose scents that are to sweet and "pink". This is the smell of a fresh newly cut dark red rose. Dark roses, with a bit of earthy smell. My little sister who is 16 wears this and it suits her perfectly, but it would also smell very nice at a more mature woman. For rose lovers.

Wicked by The Goth Rosary

This is a very nice smell, I think that it's very masculine and my husband wears it. The description says "Wonderfully Tempting... The smell of supple black leather & tobacco..." My first thought when I smelled this scent was an image of a man in a leather jacket, coming out from a cofféhouse or a pub late at night in rain. It smells like leather, smoke and fresh rain.

Dead on Chocolate by The Goth Rosary

This really smells like dark chocolate. A very nice sweet but dark chocolate smell. Everyone will smell you when you wear this, the only drawback would be that some people get chocolate cravings.

Vanilla Hell by The Goth Rosary

The description says "Toasted to a nice brown... as if spending just enough time but not over staying its welcome". It smells of burned vanilla, a somewhat smoky scent, the vanilla is a nice smell and doesn't have that "too sweet"-smell or artificial smell many vanilla perfumes have.

Dervish by The Goth Rosary

When I smelled Dervish for the first time, I fell instantly for it. The description says "Mysterious, Enchanting. smell the rich blend of ancient spices. Earthy musk, Soulful sandalwood & Velvety vanilla beans!"
It smells wooden and earthy with a wonderful vanilla scent. It's neither too earthy or too sweet, but a perfect blend. I love this smell, I'm 26 years old and feminine but not girly, and it suits me perfectly. My favorite scents are sandalwood, vanilla and bergamot. I like musk but many perfumes become too "musky", this only has a hint of musk in the basenotes.
