  1. I’m on a saffron kick again after smelling MFK’s Baccarat Rouge 540 and I remembered I had this as a half bottle somewhere in my collection. Totally different, like BR and the heaviest vanilla amber fragrance had a baby. It initially comes off powdery (probably from aged amber) but then morphs into a deep spicy silky blanket and is absolutely still exotic and unisex. Sticks close to the skin. @Potion Masterlet me know when you are doing private editions again because this has aged so beautifully that I need more… maybe two varieties—a summer and a winter version. I’m loving diving into a bunch of these oils I bought 5 years ago…some are magical, some (with cops) have gone off due to my poor storage attempts. But these are like newfound treasures to me.
  2. I pulled this out last month as I’m trying to use up half bottles and it did really age well. The ylang is more sophisticated and sexy and the myrhh is still going strong. I didn’t think I’d like ylang as I have it in a deodorant and it never sits well on me…but aged. Wow.
  3. Last month, I looked at my collection of big boxes and boxes of LPMP and said…I can’t possibly need more perfume so let’s shop for makeup. And now this. I’ll need a second job. And a bigger house.
  4. This was my only FB purchase and I could have bought 10. Just came today so I know there is travel shock, but my first impressions are citrus plus woody and masculine on initial blast but the citrus went away after about 10 minutes. Then it morphs to wood and after 15 minutes, I have this sexy non sweet amber that is still woody and a little Smokey, but I think the honey and sweetness will pop out shortly. I wish it was a tad more sweeter, but I can layer a sweeter note if needed. Nailed the unisex amber perfectly.
  5. I am so happy to have another bottle of LP Gold. I have a much less trained nose than most, so this smells so much like my beloved 2013 bottle that I am swooning. I do pick up a juicier grapefruit, but neither 2013 nor this version was a sour grapefruit. It’s just the sparkling top note that pretty quickly dries down to just a sprinkle of bright over lovely cocoa butter and the buttery LP base. God I love this so much. I wish I could buy a case. This scent is why I fell head over heels collecting LP.
  6. I have put odalisque 2017 on my right hand (fresh bottle, unopened) and 2021 on my left at the :20 mark. Totally different scents. I love the richness of 2017, deep amber, cocoa butter forward. 2021 could be its light and airy cousin. Much more sandalwood forward, mid range cocoa butter, much less sweet. I am sure this new version is day appropriate while the 2017 was the nighttime snack. I do prefer the 2017 version, but the 2021 is very nice, soft and not a lot of throw. Again, I could absolutely wear 2021 to work, while 2017 was too sweet, too gourmand to be taken seriously in a work environment. I am so happy I have both.
  7. Nope Siren Song...me too! LP Gold was my absolute fave first scent I ever bought. And buns of cinn was a in my top 10 along with Odalisque the original (or a brew around 2015). I am so freaking excited. I’ve overspent the last two months on an pelaton, but you know what....I am going deep for Pherotine! When are these coming out? Sunday?
  8. I tore into this today when the package arrived. It seems very different than original after first 20 minutes. Initially I get the blast of cocoa butter (my fave)and then the bright orange blossom (which I didn’t see would work, but it does) but after a bit it settles into a perfectly blended melange of scents. The almond scared me because that always goes cherry on me but it hasn’t happened yet after close to a half hour. It does give it a lotion quality, however. This is sexy AF but seemingly a bit light at the moment. So really, so many other scents...save the rest for me so I can buy all the FBs and slather all winter long.
  9. Yum. Soft lavender, not heavy pumpkin, and a deep vanilla smell that is almost smoky or earthy. This is soft, though. Doesn’t really waft a bunch at this point. When the package arrived at 3, I tore into this so I’m only about 20 minutes into this. Perfect perfect night time snuggle scent. Go FB folks....it’s a good one.
  10. Love, love, love this. I didn’t order this in FB but after smelling my sample, I made an emergency order. It’s spicy, it’s got some creaminess from the oats. But the Elderberry and Alcohol (one or the other) gives it this punch of brightness. Wowzer. I freakin’ love this. The fact that the magical meanings are exactly what I need right now (good luck for a new job opp)...that’s just a bonus. This doesn’t smell like a perfume...it smells like you are inside the best smelling kitchen or candle and you just radiate the smell. It’s awesome.
  11. Agree with Wanderlust. I also get a smoky quality in Bare Trap and that’s after about 10 minutes. I got package and immediately slathered Bare Trap on right arm, Odalisque on left wrist and Black Aggie on top of arm. Black Aggie is very cider-y to me and it is amazing smelling. Perhaps my favorite of the bunch because it has a punch of something bright. Unintentional rhyme there. Immediately went on website, bought the FB of Black Aggie and now I can stop having anxiety about not being able to get a FB of that!
  12. This has been my fave this month...I’m a honey ho for sure but I haven’t found one this good since the spring honey one from a few years ago. DIfferent smell, same vibe. Awesome job, Mara.
  13. I was restrained. 2 of the Bare Trap because I think it is going to be a gift for a friend who is digging the new Ariana Grande perfume and I’m too snobby to allow her to wear that. 1 Odalisque and the sampler set. This gives me the opp to smell everything, have my own fave and ensure those around me don’t smell like Ulta perfume.
