Naomi Goodsir Corpus Equus Perfume Review

Naomi Goodsir Corpus Equus Eau de Parfum really did evoke exactly what it was inspired by; it was fiery, and it reminded me of hay, barnwood, and aged leather saddles. It was a very smoky, ash and leather duo that was marginally softened by musk, powder, and rose and then later, a touch of spiced amber but the focal point was smoky ash and old leather, even into the drydown. Corpus Equus Notes It is described a “deep black animalistic composition, with assertive leather notes” that is inspired by a “fiery and impetuous horse.” Retailers list the notes as: black rose petal, horsehair, leather, cigarette ash, Tonkin musk, and amber infusion. top notes: black rose heart notes: ash, leather base notes: Tonkin musk, horsetail, amber What does Corpus Equus Smell Like?

What indie brand would you recommend to someone who's never shopped indie before?

Sydney Grace. The majority of their products (almost all!) are already made and ready to ship, so there are no long turnaround times, which I think is more of a “feature” for other indies (many of which have pre-orders). — Christine Join Discussion source https://www.temptalia.com/what-indie-brand-would-you-recommend-to-someone-whos-never-shopped-indie-before/

Give Me Glow Cupcake, Nude Rose, Anastasia, Cream Lace Pressed Shadow Reviews & Swatches

Cupcake Give Me Glow Cupcake Matte Pressed Shadow ($7.00 for 0.105 oz.) is a medium pink with moderate, warm undertones and a matte finish.
