BPAL says BELLADONNA is: The devil’s herb, which he cultivates with skill and pleasure. According to lore, the spirit of this plant may take the form of a breathtaking, achingly beautiful woman, deadly to behold. This scent is a tribute to such a dark and magnificent plant: a rich green and floral blend, earthy and haunting.
Den says BELLADONNA is: BELLADONNA
-In bottle: This smells delicate, and almost coy... It has a slight floral quality that I don't find unpleasant, and I'm not normally one for floral notes, but this does floral very well without being overpowering.
-Wet: I'm getting pine-y notes now... with a slightly sweet, floral, but warm undertone. This is definitely a green scent... but not in an unpleasant way.
-Dry: Still getting the pine-y notes, and the floral notes. It's subtly dark and dangerous, which is befitting the name of Belladonna.
-Overall impression: I think this one would work well layered with LOUP GAROU. It's woodsy, but the floral notes balance it out very well. This is a scent that fits its namesake very well. Deceptively dangerous, and almost magical, as Belladonna was traditionally used in witches' flying potions.... X3
