More Black Phoenix samples have arrived! This time it's Kabuki, Sophia, and Follow Me Boy.


Follow Me Boy has the best name ever, so I tried it first. Smells like... powdered sugar. Maybe a little vanilla, a little lemon? I keep sniffing the air; it's a very creamy-sweet scent. Very Southern to my way of thinking. Like a powder a Southern belle would dust on for hot summer days. I can imagine Rogue smelling like this. It's good stuff - yummy without being too foody.

Kabuki, meanwhile, is extremely strong cherry, sharpened with licoricey anise and something faintly incensy which might be the red musk. Interesting, but very not me. Another one for swapping.

Sophia seems to be primarily lavender, made interestingly spicy by the other notes. That's an accomplishment since I tend to associate lavender with soap, but it makes it too heavy for me... I tend to prefer the cleaner scents, really. Another one for the swap box.


In other news, I went temporarily out of my head and picked up a copy of Haunting Ground, a PS2 survival horror game. I never play survival horror games. I'm the biggest wuss in the gaming world. It took me ages to screw up my courage enough to venture from the save point to one of the first major cutscenes.

It appears to be very much a "run away like a little girl!" game. Which is probably precisely what I'll do once I get my hands on X-Men Legends II, 'cause, wimp.
