theoldehearth Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 Definitely some smoke (he always did have a heavy breathing issue)....I agree with Black Pepper & Patchouli but also try mixing them with Amber & Cardamom for dark notes.This is a fun thread to read!!

Noodle Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 It is a fun thread to read. I just do not see SEXY with Darth Vader. Definitely mysterious though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candybee Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 Fireplace/Christmas Hearth + Patchouli or Witches Brew + CedarwoodHow about the smokiness of a fireplace scent. I'm thinking CS Christmas Hearth because it has smokiness, pine, and spice. Then blend it with some patch or Witches Brew and a hint of cedarwood. This would make it an earthy, smoky, woodsy, scent with a hint of spicyness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cedar_lea Posted February 3, 2011 Author Share Posted February 3, 2011 Of course Darth Vadar is sexy! The dark side is all about engaging emotions for power and sex is a pretty potent emotional force. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noodle Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 Okay, then I think that we are on different pages in the way of a Darth Vader scent. I think of sexy as very "appealing", but not necessarily intriguing or mysterious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redquilt Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 I'm a little late to the party but I immediately thought black licorice aka star anise. But then a lot of people can't stand the smell of black licorice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noodle Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 I think that black licorice sounds fantastic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FarmerJill Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 If I had to chose an FO from what I've got on the shelf it would be cracklin' birch. It's got that deep earthy, woodsy, manly smell without any perfume. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scented Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 Till it's in wax. It comes off a bit perfumy to me in the wax. Makes me think more of those Ewoks maybe than DV. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bearmnt Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 I would use sandalwood in there some where and fireside too. but Im still pretty new to the world of "FO mad science". but its still fun to brain storm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MissMori Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 I asked my husband and his response, "pretty funky," and not in the good way.Would you be referring to Darth right after he was burned by molten lava? During recuperation? After years inside his rubber, plastic and leather outfit?So charred, gangrenous and bo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EricofAZ Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 Well, if it was "big helmet" in Spaceballs, I would think something like monkeyfarts.Ok, seriously, a combo of leather and fireside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pam W Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 Well, if it was "big helmet" in Spaceballs, I would think something like monkeyfarts.Ok, seriously, a combo of leather and fireside.Really need some patch in this combo. The patch scent will come thru on the dry-down and leave a lingering scent on the skin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CareBear Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 I think his scent would be hot metal. But how to accomplish that I couldn't say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scented Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 Maybe something close to metal would be Chrome? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
