  1. I'm slathered in this one right now, but it's not at all heavy..it's a light anise-honey confection on my skin - perfect for summertime as the really strong heavy notes overwhelm me when it's hot out. GAWD this is tasty! I honestly hope it *stays* this light and floaty!

  2. Omg, I guess I'm the only one (and I'm embarrassed to say it), but I'm getting spicy orange out of this. I guess my sniffer must be broken. Still smells absolutely divine, though.

     

     

     

    On second thought, it must be the strawberry and lemon coming thru as orange to me. Lol.

     

    Absolutely no embarrassment! We all sense things differently...the combination of notes can do some interesting things in one's brain - happens to all of us. I'm always interested in hearing unusual or different interpretations of what an LP becomes for someone. There have definitely been a few 'wth?' moments for me when I try to wrap my brain around a new one!

  3. Not to be contrary, but I think (depending on the burner of course -they run at diff temps) it *might* be a good idea to have something to buffer it over the heat. I use an aromastone which is really low temp, but I still find if I put drops of a fragrance oil in, it gets WAY too hot. Test it solo, but keep an eye on it, especially if your burner is candle powered, I'd say. I have used other neutral oils/waxes (i.e. unscented) as a 'base' for my aromastone when I put LP's on...which works pretty well.

  4. Sampled this one last night, and not surprisingly on *my* skin, the tea did not come out...it never comes out for me! Apricot can amp as well, so I didn't expect this to be my favorite release. But the apricot was bright and pretty, and made a 'good for summer' feeling scent. The base on this one is quite sheer...

  5. This one is a tad pointy wet. (and I'm a big fan of white floral...) It's not overly sweet...but pleasantly so. I'll put a few more words down as it settles...

     

    An hour later, this is a sheer version of it's former self, one I can definitely do! It's very close-to-the skin now, which surprised me! Very femme, very summery!

  6. This one is MUCH darker (on my skin, which amps resins and spices like patch and such) than I expected...which is by NO means a bad thing for me. I love LP Black, and scents with woodsy/resin. Tobacco, cedar (again, this is a note my skin amps) patch and maple lead...then I get the sugary/tonka. I'm actually thinking of having my sweetie test this one out for him too - he can carry off Mark's Tonka Tobacum which is definitely sweeter to my nose, than this.
