egyptian evenings

Thanks to the miracle of decant circles, I was able to pick up a rather sizable number of samples of Possets' Egyptian Evenings collection. When I first heard about the concept - and that it would involve a lot of resins - I was stoked. I love resins! So how good was it?

( Reviews are here! )

Some of them (Evil Eye, Bastet, Lotus of the Nile) are wonderful and not quite like anything else in my collection. Some (Kohl, Hatshepsut, Nefertiti, Serqet, The Crown of the Vulture) are from families that are well-represented in my collection, but are nevertheless awesome and fun to wear. Some (The Eye of Horus, Canopic Box, The Crown of the Serpent) are otherwise gorgeous scents that are marred on my skin by one discordant note.

I'm thinking that Evil Eye, Hatshepsut and Bastet may be big bottle worthy, although I'll have to spend a bit more time with Bastet to be sure. Possets is having a sale through September 1, so I have some time to decide.
