    A dark infernal Oriental amber this is another very nice showcase for Ellen Covey’s blending skills. The perfume opens on a strong herbal note with Himalayan Nard, lemongrass, and artemisia. It proceeds to a brief middle with labdanum, olibanum, myrrh and lemongrass. Finally it settles on a dense base of cinnamon, amber, ambergris, and sandalwood. Very daring, edgy and smoky herbal unisex scent with moderate to strong projection, sillage and good longevity. Recommended only for the most daring. Enjoy.

    I have #3 on one wrist and #4 on the other wrist. #3 is MUCH spicier and I think clove should be listed in the notes. It smells like cinnamon and cloves mixed with a resinous, dark incense base. Dark, but not as dark as the first two but more so than the fourth.
    I get very little green here. A nice, lighter version of the first two in the series. They seem to get lighter to my nose as they progress 1-4.
    I think all of them are excellent and they come in a very nice sample pack. If you like this “thing” you should considering getting the sampler.

    This fragrance is strikingly different from the masses. It reminds me of a cabin in the woods. A place we use to vacation during the summer when I was a kid. To me this is a very spicey & woodsy scent, even though there are no woods listed!
    Also something that reminds me very strongly of wicker. Maybe it’s the lemongrass. It’s the same wicker vibe I get in some other frags like Maestrale for example. I also get a slight black licorce vibe from this one. So if you like Sambuca or black licorice, this one is for you.
    Heavy on spices, I love the spices. Something very masculine.

    Cinnamon is the biggest note here. To be exact, it smells like potpourri. Most of the other notes are overshadowed by the spicy cinnamon. I am a cinnamon addict and love it in Lolita L,Sushi Imperial and several others that utilize cinnamon in a warm way. This is just straight cinnamon all the time. After a few hours I had to wash it off so maybe the dry down turns incorporates more notes but as it stands, this is a big dislike for me.

    Olibanum just might be the best note to represent Beelzebub and for that reason, I’m not mad at the heavy usage of olibanum in Dev #3. This opens similarly to the other 3 Devil scents blazing a trail of fire and brimstone. Once again the olibanum is heavy but for this Dev concoction it’s paired with some serious resins. Don’t be fooled by all this “brown stuff,” this is very much brown as it is earthy and green(not Green Irish Tweed “green” but more on a natural outdoors level). Think mountain man, wet tree branches, etc…myrhh should rank higher for detectability bcuz it definitely contributes greatly to the medicinal burning tire effect found in the middle. At this point, i find the fragrance to be borderline uncomfortable(rightfully so) a scent born from a rebellious heart. The Inevitable will have many clamoring for the safety word to stop the madness others will bathe in all its malevolence. No doubt, a very subjective offering but do remember, the Dev series is a story in fragrance format…

    While fruitless, I was getting some spiced sweetness at the top that was too fruit-esque for me. The middle phase won me over, though – a nice balance of resinous incense and just the right amount of lingering warmth from the top to round it out. Into the base it goes softer and gave me vague recollections of the heart/base in Andrea Maack’s Coal (which is totally different from its opening, in case you think the reference is crazy. You gotta let Coal wash itself out an hour in to see what I’m talking about here).
