Dracul actually smells okay on me (not great). I expected to hate it. Go figure. Harlot, on the other hand, spends its drydown period smelling like roses a day or two old before settling into a strong, tolerable, but uninspiring rose.
Jack has thus far won the "ick" award from this set of imps, though. Ever eaten the Jelly Belly beans that are 'popcorn' flavor? It smelled like they taste. Sweet butter butter butter. EW. And very strong. Double ew.
High John the Conqueror is okay, though, as is Frumious Bandersnatch. (Unfortunately, they're respectively scent-similar to Dragon's Eye and Wicked, and not quite as good as their similar partner. Ah well.) Has No Hanna reminds me of bananas with a floral backing; it's amusing, and not unpleasant.
Unrelated to perfume, I'm part way through reading Kushiel's Scion and enjoying it very much. (Should not be read without reading the trilogy that precedes it, though, as it inevitably spoilers both individual scenes, and the main over-arching plot - has to, given that it occurs right after and with some of the same characters!)
