  1. There's something about this one that makes my eyes roll back in my head in ecstasy. Unfortunately I only had a few drops of a decant, so it's pretty much gone (and hence my constant search for it on the trade threads! Not that anyone is giving this beauty up). I want to know what makes my eyes roll back in my head. Lotus? I have no idea. Help.
  2. Okay, thank you. I am trying to hold off until we find out what the new releases are going to be. As I have that store credit burning a hole in my pocket, lol.
  3. Are there any of the Buttercream Lemon shampoo bars left? My husband used my Lush shampoo bar thinking it was soap. ETA: They and the soaps don't ship to Canada?
  4. I got both my packages today!!! I didn't even realize the second one had shipped! One problem--my Cherry Blossom Musk leaked pretty bad. It's not so bad on the amount, but just the mess it made (I'm glad it was wrapped in its own bag!). I currently have the bottle wrapped in a Kleenex to absorb some of the excess oil. But if that doesn't work, could I maybe get a new label sent to me with my next order?
  5. *sigh* Fine, I will be patient. Ish.
  6. Which ones were the 2016 ones? I forget. I want to knooooowwww!!!! Soon...
  7. I know, I know.I haven't even gotten my Pherotine order yet, lol. I'm just snoopy. ETA: What about a hint? A teaser?
  8. I tried this one out a few days ago. I agree with whoever above said it smells like those little fancy soaps that are too pretty to actually use. And I like those scents, and I don't even mind smelling like soap, but this becomes almost too soapy, even for me. Almost. I will probably use up my little trial vial eventually. But I don't feel the need to seek out a bottle.
  9. I want to know the theme! I'm impatient, haha. I hope Canada Post deigns to deliver my package that I already ordered one of these days. It should have been here by now, but now they're saying April 4th or so. I do not understand them...
  10. I can't do the chocolate scents either, Eastwood22. Also I think CB makes my husband bitchy. I will have to experiment more, but if it does, I don't know what to make of that.
  11. I need to try this...although the "funky ass" possibility scares me. Damned cops...
  12. So just out of random curiosity, when are the next NR's coming out, and do they have a theme yet? I haven't even gotten the ones I just ordered, lol.

    Okay, no worries. We'll work that out over email (I'm a bit confused as to whether you still want the bottle of A Lick of Cream and the trial vial of Lait du Citron--but if you don't want Lait du Citron I'm waffling on giving it up anyway, lol!). Where I live we have a website called Skip the Dishes that delivers food from a bunch of different restaurants and it is basically the only way I manage to eat some days. Oooh, looks like I did order Pherotine 2018, and therefore will be getting Liebchen! I'm excited now. Yes, it would be a lot better for my wallet if I didn't love so many of them! lol.

    No, I think that was in one of the ones I'm waiting for? It should be here on Monday I think... BTW did you get my email(s) about the ones we were talking about? I have your box like half packed up but I don't know if you want any of the others I mentioned or not (no pressure if not, I just need to know whether to pull them out or not), or if I got everything right. ETA: Ooooooh, I just looked up Liebchen...I'm very excited to try that one! ETAA: I can't remember which sampler I ordered--Pherotine 2018 or Summer 2017...or both? Ahhhhh!
  15. Oh my goodness, I'm trying this one today and it is delightful! I think it smells very ladylike and elegant, but not in a hoity-toity way, but more like an approachable, "friends with everyone" type of way. Elegant, but friendly. Ladylike, but warm and not reserved. Mmmm, I wish there were rollerball bottles left! There's spray but I don't know...although it's probably better for my wallet this way. But it's so pleasant! I think it even improved my mood. I felt pretty crappy when I woke up this morning. It seemed like it was going to be one of those days where everything just seems too hard. But I feel a lot better now. PS--Nobody is home to cuddle with me (except cats, but no humans), but *I* feel super-snuggly. I don't know if this is going to make my husband want to cuddle or not, but I might have to grab a cat or a teddy bear and tuck myself in for a snuggle-nap.

    This sounds like it should be exactly my kind of scent. I adore lavender, marshmallow, and any combinations of those two. I love the name, and the label. And I don't mind it. It just doesn't seem to have that somethin'-somethin' that, say, Beautiful Dreamer (which I love madly) has. I don't know if it's too soft on me or what. Maybe I'll need to test it out again and see if that makes a difference, I don't know.

    Baby Chicks

    Well I'm glad that I don't think it smells like Peeps, because I think Peeps are disgusting.

    Baby Chicks

    I tried this one again today. I had completely forgotten about my previous post, and I didn't look at the ingredients until after I had it on for awhile. So this time, I was expecting a fuzzy pastel yellow scent (because chicks, I guess, lol). And I got pink. And I was so confused. It was like a sweet marshmallowy plushness coated in glittering pink sugar crystals. It stayed pink for a looooonnnnng time, but now, near the end of the day, it smells warm and fuzzy and the pinkness has mellowed into a sweet pastel yellow. And this time, I don't get any smokeyness (I don't know how to spell that word, sorry). The softness reminds me a bit of Marsha Mellow (which I LOVE!).

    Pillow Patter

    So I wore this one to bed the night before last, because I assume any scents with the word "pillow" in the title are bedtime scents. And it was...it was relaxing...but it was also more sensual than I was expecting. I kept sniffing my wrist. It was quite lovely and left me wishing I had more than a trial vial. I am hoping for a re-brew someday so I can get a bottle.
  20. Pillow Patter. Pretty please with sugar on top? I wore it to bed last night because it had the word "pillow" in it, but I smelled so good that I kept sniffing my wrists.
  21. I am surprised to learn this was supposed to be a men's scent. I haven't tried mine yet; now I'm curious.

    What are the notes in this one?
  23. What was I even talking about three years ago? Clearly I was either more discerning or crankier. This is delightful to me today. So soft and sweet and comforting. I don't get Love's Baby Soft out of it, though. I...I kind of miss Love's Baby Soft. Do they still make that stuff? So many of my fave scents from when I was a little schmoo are either gone or gone all wrong (I'm looking at you, White Musk from The Body Shop). Even my L'air du Temps doesn't smell as "clean" as it once did. And milk chocolate doesn't taste the same...nothing is the same. *sobs* I need a time machine to go back and stock up on everything. One time I had a Crunch bar that I got at the airport in Frankfurt and it tasted the way milk chocolate used to taste when I was a kid. Had I known, I would have bought more. What was I talking about? Oh yeah, this is really nice. It might make me a tad sentimental for the good old days, when perfume was perfume and milk chocolate was milk chocolate. Not that this smells anything like chocolate. But apparently it inexplicably makes me think of chocolate. And perfumes (which makes more sense). And the better quality of both of those items in the late 80s and early 90s.
  24. I got a shipping notice for my first recent order and I was like, "wait...I wasn't done!" lol I'm still considering a third. *sigh* This is what happens when I can't buy perfume for a year. Now do I want a spray bottle of Cherry Blossom Musk, or shall I just hope that I can find someone willing to part with a rollerball bottle in the future?
