  1. Oh, if not spoken for, could I please have another bottle of Sunset Kiss. I am loving this blood orange.
  2. This upcoming sale is keeping me awake a night.......thinking.....how does it work....what will be on sale......should I plan a whole day in front of the computer the day the sale starts.....what kind of lists should I be making....... I have used up so much of my balm bomb trying to combat this anxiety
  3. Oh, if available could I get a Sunset Kiss , Farmhouse and Midnight Snack
  4. As I am heading over to Artfire to order ANOTHER bottle, I realized I had not yet reviewed. Blackcat, I love this. At first I thought the lavender was going to be a much like Tickle Tickle (which sits unused), but on me the lavender so very quickly mellows and I am left with that fat comforting cloud. I really like what the tiny bit of woodsmoke adds. I know it sounds odd, but for me it adds a wispiness. I can certainly attest to the intent. With this fat kitty cloud I immediately feel the relaxation and it works for really restful night. I've used almost 3/4 of my first bottle.
  5. This starts off with a delicious bitter chocolate that I adore and then poof chocolate disappears and I'm left with only amber and patchouli that smell like perhaps were left sitting in an unwashed coffee cup. I am not minding the unwashed coffee cup patchouli and amber, just wish the chocolate would come back to visit.
  6. I am so in love with this green musk. There is just a moment of "a little too perfumey" but it so very quickly disappears and a hint of earth emerges and seems to round everything out to just an incredible smelling me. I just placed order for 2nd full bottle.
  7. I almost feel guilty posting but....I was given a handsome gift recently and the practical thing would be to spend on existing bills.....but naw......I went full bottle set for June.
  8. Blackcat, I'm so glad you got a bottle of Bonne Belle. I hope you love her.
  9. I always dab directly under my nose as well. I use balm balm a lot. It is wonderful to use before bed and really makes a difference in how I rest. It is my "go to" on stressful days.
  10. Thank you Blackcat. I know you truly understand because of Olivia.
  11. I love this PE. I have waited to review because I get very emotional talking about it and when I wear it. This is what I sent to Mara… Bonne Belle She would start her morning off climbing and swinging from the large indoor trees pretending she was the queen of the jungle in a forest of bamboo, sprinkled with bergamot. She ruled everything in her sight; she was the sparkling queen of all creatures. After living her daydreams, it was back to reality, realizing her pedigree and what a refined indoor kitty she was, after getting that little whiff of sweet pink rose. When the afternoon sunbeam hit her mommy's lap it was finally time to settle in with soft, warm and round sandalwood and amber. In all her seventeen years, she was never an old lady - so much personality, round and soft, but not a lightweight, blaming all mischief on her brother. She was ever so fond of her hats. I brought back such a selection from a trip to Paris. The snooty french sales girl didn’t want to sell them to me, told me (I had short hair at time), “ pour un chignon” to which I replied “ bsolument pas, chapeau pour mon chat”. There was a hat for every day and every occasion. This was her achats chapeau (shopping hat) Mara’s description… .”For Bonne Belle - her looks and your description of her as such a little lady reminded me of my own little soulmate, I made her something really special. I loved your idea of the fresh bamboo base, and as you asked for a "delicate" rose, I chose fresh cut rose stems only...it's consistent with the bamboo greenery and has just the softest nicest part of the rose smell. I chose my favorite fuzzy warm Indian Sandalwood and favorite velvety white amber, and there's just a couple of drops of Bergamot EO on top. To me it smells like raindrops, with a touch of velvety-ness beneath. (It smells like my Lunacat does after she gives herself a bath - I always say, “ y baby smells like raindrops!”)" The scent is amazing for me, truly like velvet raindrops, but without a water accord, nothing sharp, all smoothness and warmth, green and soft without any edges. Mara has created many scents similar I am sure, but when she brewed this for me she really did add the magic or allowed it to enter. When I put this simple soft sent on I am hit with an emotional ton of bricks that takes my breath away and I am almost always brought to tears. There is an avalanche of all the happiness, laughter, tenderness, joy and unconditional love that has been given to me throughout my life. I am filled with so much gratitude and my heart is so full it feels like it will explode. I am at a loss to understand how she could send these things to me in a bottle. I was hesitant to review because I know you guys will think I am off my rocker, being brought to tears or close to tears every time I wear a scent. Because they are such happy tears and such a fullness of heart I don’t hesitate to wear and have almost finished a bottle. I will certainly do more PEs, but I don’t know if this one can be topped emotionally.
  12. "Intense visuals and sounds of presumably stereotypical 70s stuff: I heard Close to You and Top of the World, and saw women with glossy parted lips and feathered hair in gauzy soft focus through a vaselined lens, and brown/mustard interiors and macrame, and I heard a commercial with the whispered words "Shalimar" and something Shoulders ?? and I saw the belle de jour movie poster. ...... It's Angelina Jolie in the 70s in mockneck yellow cashmere and tweed bell bottoms and camel colored Mary Jane platforms. Very, very, very Grown Up Lady 70s sex kitten. Obvious compatible pheros imo are LFM and somehow I see it being a great fit for Leather- it gave me an intense feeling of almost excessive confidence.".......TYVEY Now I know why I love this one......I'M OLD..... :crutches: :crutches:
  13. I am so glad I got 2 bottles of this. I am not typically drawn to florals and I really can't do most honeys. On me the orchid is really not floral at all and the honey actually likes me. This turns out to be a bottle of black velvet, not floral, sweet but not too sweet, not pointy, just pure sexy dark soft velvet. I am surprised because I still can't wear LP Black. Black Carbon is great on its on and turning out to be great for layering with darker scents.
  14. I am going for oil. I ordered some great 5ml glass atomizer bottles and I have alcohol from artfire so I am going to do my on little sample of spray to check out in spray. If its good that way I see another bottle in my future. I like it that much. Edited - correction they are 4ml
  15. I had to go full bottle. I am amazed at the fresh and light I get when it has smoke, leather and tobacco. On me it drys down to very female, light musky, yet wild. This is a total winner for me.
  16. I am not sure that I have ever met a bamboo that I didn't like. Not only do I like this one - it likes me back. Had to order FB
  17. To me this really is southern summer/spring in a bottle. Triggers huge sent memories of summer as a child. Very green, sweet and soft. It is really cotton blossom and not linen or laundry. It is the perfect amount of sweetness and overall great blend. I had to go fb on this. When I put this on and close my eyes, I am eight and playing as hard as I can before Mama calls me in for dinner,
  18. I am known for my special recipe fresh berry margaritas - they are killer. If I have the melts going perhaps I should reduce alcohol content.
  19. I would love to have some melts with Open Windows! I have Topper, Alpha-Nol, G2 and Tranquility. I think I will go with Topper. It's the Chocolate Chip and Orange Cupcake scent so probably will just make food taste better as well LOL. I wondered how alcohol and the alpha-nol would mix, if people would drink too much.
  20. Having folks over for dinner (relatively small gathering 12-15 people) and I am trying to decide which wax melt. I am mixing some people that don't really know one another and just want everyone to have great time - party mood. I have lots of wax melts and trying to decide between the wax melts with Topper or Alpha-Nol. Any suggestions
  21. If you have dry skin you must try this. It's light, non greasy and on me sinks in immediately. I have been using this everyday from the neck down and it has made such a difference. I get the delicious, but subtle fragrance and absolutely no "stink" - just fabulous smelling, super soft skin. Sooooo glad I ordered 4 jars of this. A little goes a long way, but I am way over indulging in this.
  22. Amalthea, it was sheer panic on my part. I went through a FB in about a month and half and I know how well LPs age so I went for it. I guess I'm just a slatherer
  23. This starts out very floral on me as well, but quickly changes to very green grass/plant with just a hint of florals. It is somewhat soap like on me, but a gentle very smooth soap. I went FB. Who knows - this could be good if you don’t have time to shower. LOL
  24. Blackcat, something to try - after you put on Calrissian, layer some Carbon Black - OMG
