  1. I love this! Thanks for sharing with us so we know what to expect! I also liked reading about the perfume inspirations! . I've been working on my very own PE so I'm excited there will be more time for PE's this year too. YAY! ❤❤❤
  2. OMG! I am really regretting the many, many, many times I looked at this scent on Etsy, when it was still available, and passed it up. I kept thinking I would buy it next time. Well, I finally got a sample and the chance to try it and I'm in love with this scent and it's gone. Damn it! Why didn't I just buy the bottle?! This seems like a very familiar scent to me too. It makes me think of my childhood and department stores too but my images are of the makeup counters and ladies in fancy clothes and different shades of lipsticks. It's so beautiful! I would wear this often. Now I have a tiny sample that I'll hoard as much as I possibly can.
  3. These labels are gorgeous!!! I've heard wonderful things about Goddes of The Blue Moon and Cherry Divinity. I'm excited!
  4. This combined with Spirit Bottle would be incredibly powerful! I think this combined with Persephone Potion would be too. I wonder what else would be good with this? For some reason Ashes to Dust, Soul Food, and Blessing Oil immediately popped into my head. When I combine this with other potions, I'll let you know. I wonder if the sandalwood possibly reminded your sister of soap? I definitely don't get a soapiness to this though. That's kind of funny! And one thing I noticed about this is the scent lingered with me into the next day. This is not a heavy scent and it wears so close to the skin so it surprised me that it lasted on me for so long. It was faint but it was still there. Love it!
  5. I've worn this all day today. I am surprised by how light it is on me. It's so similar to Persephone Potion in that manner. I love everything about this one. As a scent, it's mysterious, soft, dry. It's a subtle blend of leather, resins, and smoke. And just like with Persephone Potion, I will wear this often. I love the uniqueness of this as a scent. I'm having a difficult time describing the scent itself. It's a perfect balance, not too resiny and not too smokey. It's unisex and doesn't lean towards feminine nor masculine which is a big part of the beauty and mystery of it. This definitely gives a sense of magic and an ancient wisdom. It evokes images of a large room with shelves from floor to ceiling on all the walls, dim light, candles, dusty air, tables, desks, with wizardy things all around. It's strong and grounding. It's magic and knowledge in a bottle. Blackcat, I 100% agree with what you said about how Grimoire and Persephone Potion being companion scents. Such a magical idea and magical result!
  6. I just got this one yesterday and I tested a tiny bit of on my wrists. It gave me an instant thought of wisdom in a bottle. I could smell the leather and smoke and a softness to it. I think I'm going to love this one! I'm going to wear it today and will write up a better review later.
  7. I've never worn a scent where pear was the dominant scent at any point. I love smelling like pears! Like everyone else said, I also got pear immediately. Yum. After maybe 30-60 mins some of the other fruits started to come out more. It blended into this nice happy fruity scent but with a base vanilla and vetiver so it wasn't just all fruit to me. I am starting to wear SWS at the office more. It's such a great phero at work. It's especially great to wear around aggressive people who want to power over everyone else. It tends to make them not so aggressive towards me or others around me. This just got moved to the top of my FB Wish List.
  8. I am loving this one so far. I can't stop huffing my wrists! It's a sweet pink honey musk on me right now. I can't wait to smell this after the long dry down. I have a feeling it's going to turn into a very sensual honey musk with this woodsy base to it, not super spicy or resiny but still a deep honey musk. At least this is what I'm hoping for! ETA: This did not disappoint after a few hours in. I was still huffing my wrists and this did turn into this deep sensual honey musk. Beautiful!
  9. I got a tiny freebie sample of this. OMG! I had NO IDEA how AMAZING this one is! I wore it one day and fell head over heels in love with it. I would love if my SO would wear this every day. He's not a scent guy though. On me it was the perfect androgynous scent. Hints of sweet from the vanilla and tonka, with hints of vetiver and leather here and there and a soft yet solid base of sandalwood and amber. Warm and cozy and dreamy and fantastic!

    OMG Cheesy! I get the hint of curry in this too!?! Why??? It's so odd and it doesn't quite go away. (I don't think it's my hormones either since there is no bun in this oven.) I'm starting to think I have issues with pumpkin scents. Some work, like Wicked, and well now that I think about it all others I've tried don't work on me at all.
  11. I remember reading about previous versions of NOX and knew if there was ever a rebrew I needed to try it. I just got my November sampler and put this on immediately (after I smelled everything first). This is yet another beautiful resin scent. It's blended together so nicely. It's light on my skin which isn't common for a resinous scent. I think the berries keep it brighter and lighter but then the resins keep the berries grounded. I love it! I'm sort of hesitant when it comes to trying new pheros (new to me) and I've never tried Teddy BB. So far so good. I think I really like this one! I'm feeling pretty relaxed and content.
  12. Wow! These all sound AMAZING everyone!!! The budget is tight here right now otherwise I think I'd get a few.
  13. I wore this for the first time today. I was so excited to try this one! I thought I had an idea of what it would smell like but I was so surprised that it was oh so much better. Initially it started out with the blueberry and woods as the strongest scents. The blueberry isn't a sweet sticky blueberry and it mellowed out fairly quickly. Spices and woods started to become the most dominant. It was boardering becoming a little too masculine for me but then they mellowed and the smoke became a little more prominent and slowly the blueberry came back. It's turned into this smoky blueberry musk with a base of spicy woods. OMG! IT'S AMAZING! I wish my SO wore cologne because I would insist that he wear this. I know I'll be wearing it a lot! I think I've found a new LP Love.
