So turns out it isn’t similar to Olympic Orchid’s Seattle Chocolate; I get a lot of iris and the cypress is soft (not tart at all, and gives it a fresh aspect).. I honestly don’t know why people don’t like it; it is very pleasant and reminds me of Dior Homme a little

Lady Dreidel was a bit of a disappointment for me. I agree with darlingdraven, it would have been a much better scent if it weren’t for that oddly placed cypress note.
Cypress and dark chocolate don’t go together all that well. The result is a somewhat masculine and salty blend of notes, harsh and unpleasant on the skin. This fragrance also has the tendency to smell damp, like rotting, rain drenched wood.
On my skin Lady Dreidel just smells wrong. I believe it has been wrongly marketed, and should in fact be a fragrance for men. It is a unique scent, I’ll give it that.
The drydown is not unlike the scent of a grey lead pencil. It’s a fairly aggressive and odd scent, not for the faint of heart. If you happen to like this fragrance, please apply it sparingly, as it has a rather overwhelming presence.
I have only smelt Lady Dreidel in the oil concentration, which is indeed heavy and lasting. I much prefer Chile Vanilli for my gourmand fix, so if you’re keen on smelling chocolate, I probably would skip Lady Dreidel. It’s a musky, damp woods scent, not at all sweet or delectable.

As is standard of all smell bent’s fragrances with musk…all I get is an overwhelming wet dirt smell.

In my opinion, this perfume would have been really nice without the cypress. I really wanted to smell more of the chocolate, sandalwood, and iris combination. What I smell right away is cypress, chocolate, and iris. It then fades into a book/paper smell.
