  1. I have really been thinking of a vanilla-white musk PE so this is great. If the marshmallow is anything like Flying Potion, I can only imagine it being fantastic.

  2. I only just got the chance to try this. It is wonderful. I hope there may be another brew in the future....even if it is just for the summer. The smell of cops is completely absent. The fruit is just balanced so wonderfully that nothing seems to overpower nor does it overpower any scent it is worn with. Just a beautiful compliment to scents. I will cherish the small amount I have.

  3. The second time I tried this, it seemed a bit flat and even a bit musty. I am not sure if it was the alcohol or the smoke. It wasn't completely unpleasant but it wasn't pleasant. Third time I tried it it seemed to have changed a bit and is not as flat and not musty. I think it will get better with age and some just need to sit for a while. I get into such a hurry trying things and have learned from reading and experience that even if something crinkles my nose, I will give it another chance.

  4. I received this one as a free one and I love the scent. I do get a bit of the clean soap but more of a essence of soap than actual soap.Like mentioned above it is as if i was working outside in the dirt and then washed with soap. I find this scent soothing and I am so happy the intent is protection. I will cherish both this one and Stocking Stuffer.

  5. I found the description in the archives and this is one good protection potion as well. I am glad Mara added it as a free one. I would have never know how wonderful it was.

  6. I received my bottle of this scent yesterday. When wet, I too find that it seems very unisex. After a while the florals did come out and dry down turned into a lovely spicy floral on me. I really like this scent and found it feminine after the dry down. The phero blend really kicks it up a notch. I understand why it is called Happy Water because my mood did lighten within a short time.

  7. There is something melancholy about the scent that reminds me of tears at the back of my throat;

    This is the way I feel every time I see the pictures of the devastation the area endured. But then seeing how they did not give up in the face of such disaster is so inspiring. The money for this scent is going to such a good cause I wouldn't care how it smelled on me, but while I get smokiness, I do get the deep dark Bourbon vanilla. I had mine spiked with Leather and it seems to be a perfect match. Love it.

  8. I got some of this with my recent order and I love it. It is a pine smell but a fresh bright one even with the sweetness that comes through. Absolutely lovely!!! Even though I live in a city, I am a country girl at heart and now instead of just thinking of the sights and scents of the country when I get stressed, I can close my eyes, take a deep whiff and be there.

  9. That is okay Ducky...I figured you had a line for that $1 sniff. Have to take care of business first. LOL

     

    I haven't had a scent with the alcohol scent yet so I hope it behaves on me.

  10. Thanks StacyK I don't know if I will amp the alcohol notes since I haven't had the chance to wear one yet. I was hoping it would be a nice warm weather scent....now if the warm weather would ever come!!! LOL

  11. It went on very pointy and sharp for me, and took about twenty minutes of dry down for the pecans and vanilla to appear. The vanilla and pecans were what first attracted me, so I guess I'll just be happy with my lovely trial vial. The smoke note IS gorgeous, as Tyvey said, though, but my stupid skin chemistry fights everything else in it.

    Could you explain what was "pointy" for you when applied? was it the alcohol notes? or something else??

  12. I am always going back and looking up the individual molecules to try and keep them straight. I like LP for the very fact the blends make it almost a no-brainer. There is a blend that cover almost everything so I don't have to try and do any mixing. That is a good thing since just minute changes can mean something gets a completely different reaction. I love the blends....and the variety. Happy, calm, reflective, sexual...and so much more.

  13. Well being a nurse, most of my co-workers are women and usually pretty stressed women so this will help. Never had anyone really bitch at me but just having something to relax the atmosphere once in a while would be nice. Calmer is always better. I am older than them and have been doing this a lot longer so they do look to me more of a "den mother" also they tend to come and get me or tell me when something "odd" happens and I usually need to reassure them that there is nothing to be scared of. 99.9% of the time it is nothing and I can usually figure out what went bump in the night pretty quick. When it ends up something more, I have been able to convince them there is nothing to be afraid of.There have only been a couple of times where I was really unnerved in my career but I never let the other staff know and things calmed down quickly.

     

    I also tend to be one animals gravitate to anyway so I don't think I would be able to notice if that was a side effect.
