Been trying them. A couple nice ones, most I've tried haven't suited yet. SO NICE to have the bottles of the ones I liked early on, though - they're still my favorites.
I am particularly put out with Nyx. The effect once it hits my skin is as if one took a Barbie doll, dipped her in 2-3 floral perfumes (not, mind you, matching ones) and then set her on the dashboard of a car for a few hours in 90-degree heat.
I've scrubbed most of it off, so it's a weak scent, but smelling like mixed heavy dark florals with an undertone of unpleasantly-heated plastic is ... really NOT my goal.
Really not.
My left wrist was pleasantly spicy earlier, but now smells like plum chapstick. As that's less than an hour from 'too spicy' to 'nice' and into 'chapstick', I think that's two more down....
