Cherise

Love the idea of this, it's sweet w more maple than sugar, the amber and lemon lift this scent giving it an ethereal feel. I'm a tad sensitive to the lemon note here so I hope it doesn't amp up of time. Overall a romantic stroll in the moonlight scent.

Haha, probably.. this is definately most powerful lp in the bunch imo.

The quintessential Valentine chocolate candy scent. It's that hazel nut n chewey squared carmel chocolate. The first piece of candy I reach for in that heart shaped box. Glad I got this lp in my box of goodies.

Love the authentic sweet, ripe strawberry it's so delicious I wouldn't mind it w/out the vanilla and buttercream notes, just 100% strawberry deliciousness. I do get a fun lip smackers vibe from it though but with real fresh berries.

I get pink rose and a lil raspberry rum dessert drink concoction. Unlike the other Aja lp this has no hidden agenda has richly seductive scent. Not a perfect fit for me but the rose gives it a festive Valentine Day vibe.

This rounds off my top 3, baby powdery with a bite. This is sooo deceptive, I can't smell the Aja so much but I can feel it. This is the devil in a pink taffeta dress, very sexy.

Hmm I did get an initial very subtle apricot, have yet to test it further for it's staying power, luckily this lp can be fairly easy to manipulate because it wears so soft in it's original formula.

The peach is true to life, the champagne note gives a good buzz feel with a nip of apricot. Yep this has Sunday brunch Bellini written all over it.

One of my favorite soap scents is honey/almond, this is reminiscent of that but better like a yummy candied dessert. A confectionery of almond and juicy tangerine.

Wow top 3 in it's originality alone. The perfect spring day bottled up. Green, refreshing, lively, sweet and magical don't even justifiably describe this, must be experienced first hand. I'm gonna go thru this sample faster than any other lp I've come across, I could splash around in a pond of Fairy Musk.

Very exotic patchouli scent, rich but not overpowering. Excellent call of grounding this with the sugar, it doesn' t read sweet on me as much as it keeps from going ad naseum which patchouli scents fall victim to.

Mmm this reminds me of a just opened box of ripe juicey cherries dipped in warm white chocolate. That initial aromatic freshness of white chocolate covered cherries. Unlike the heavy concentrated, sacchariny pharmacy boxed cherries sold this time of year. This is in my top 3.

A concoction of all things feminine but delicately layered. A crisp, clean white tea/jasmine undercurrent, a subtlet sweet hint of apricot with a faint powdered sugar dusting.

I had that feeling that this was gonna be a fb worthy set, when the descriptions were first posted I was all across the board sold on those alone. But I have to use up some lp's I have already before restocking on new fb's. However to compromise there is a very high chance I will order another sampler set because I can see myself burning through my first set at record pace. Seems like Oregon is turning out to be an inspirational move for Mara creatively, is so we are in for a helluva ride this year for what other surprises she has in store for us.

Glad you caught that mistake.. phew relieved to hear this great review, my favorite holiday month (feb) with not one unfavorable review yet.

Mmm that sounds heavenly, that's another thing I will say about this months lp's all of their descriptions have me salivating.

Uh oh not a lot of love for this one yet, kinda had my fingers crossed with this w the Aja added in and the name sounds festive like it translates to pour some bourbon on me even though the ingredients don't reflect that. Maybe this needs a shot of something mixed in to put it on the map.

Excellante!!

Excellent reviews Ducky, it sounds like Mara is on her way of batting 1,000 with the Jan NR's. Life is good.

Surprised to get my shipping notice today since only put my order in a couple of days ago, yay! Prob get here Sat or Mon hopefully.

So far this is a great selfie (haven't field tested this yet) as Molls stated, powdery, soft lil sweet.. I get vanilla with a hint of nutmeg. I applied 5 or 6 swipes but will do half that when I wear it out tomorrow since I hear too much LFM can push people away.

If I didn't have so many fb's of past lp's already I would be very tempted to go fb set on this month. They all sound orgasmic and I got that feeling they will all be amazing, I'm gonna settle for a sampler , looking forward to reviews.

I so dropped the ball on ordering this holiday season. Is the feb sampler still available or should I order samples individually? Also Is it possible to get the phero trials or did I miss that boat? If so I will order them in samples w the feb order. Originally wanted to order all phero trials or samples but want to narrow down to top ten or 12, my picks are: LFM, LFN, Bang, Gotcha, Heart n Soul, LAM, BAM, SS, BI, TMI. Any other suggestions of a top pick phero that I should add with this order?

"Does anyone think Mara will be going straight to romance with Feb around the corner? Or maybe a mix of New Year's celebratory sparkle and Valentine's roses and chocolates???" Ooh yeah w banana on top..
