    Call of the Moon

    In the vial, this is really nice. On me, it was nice enough, but once again it is still Shark Week, and my nose is "off." So I will definitely need to try it again another time! I will give it a better review then. _____________________________________________________________________________________________ (4 years later...my how time flies!) Okay ...am I the only one who finds this kind of masculine? I definitely get lemon. I like lemon, though, so that's cool. If I just smelled like oranges, lemons, and limes all the time, that would be totally fine by me. I did just put it on, but so far it seems like it might stay pretty true to the scent straight out of the vial. It is not shark week, so that can't be throwing me off this time. I feel like I want it to be a bit sweeter. Or creamier. Like I want to add A Lick of Cream to it or something. But that might be just my current mood. Couple of hours after application: now it's just kind of faint and perfumey. I can't smell it that well but I might just be used to it. Later this same night: My neck is red, sore, and itchy. Only my neck, but I don't know what else it could be. Maybe I'm allergic to something in it? It's not too bad, at least...pretty mild.
  2. Help please, I owe Saffron23 some GCs for a trade and I'm trying to pay it with Paypal, and it keeps charging me shipping! I don't know how to make shipping $0. ETA: Nevermind, Saffron23 explained to me that the shipping gets refunded. I would delete this post but I don't know how. Heh.
  3. If you were going to order a FB of Betrothal Potion, and you wanted it boosted with a phero, which phero would you choose? I thought maybe Cuddle Bunny, but that doesn't seem quite right. Lumina?

    Budding Romance

    First of all, I did not know that plumeria and frangipani were the same thing. Learn somethin' new every day around here! In the vial, this is nice enough to me, but not a standout. It's much the same on my skin. However, there is a slight undercurrent if that same "almost too much" sense that I got from the Sugared Tuberose--the "too much" scent which my nose translates as an "ointment" smell. Full disclosure: it is Shark Week and I don't quite trust my sense of smell at the moment, so I will definitely have to try this again sometime in the future.
  5. You people are turning me toward the foodie side...maybe a little bit. I mean I HAD to reserve a rebrew bottle of Lusty Cherry, right? How could one resist? I'm going through the Etsy shop at the moment. This is dangerous for my credit card.
  6. I want my stuff but it's in postal limbo! *throws tantrum* I want it NAAAAOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWW!!! *pout*

    Well, this one is a delight! It smells like sparkly fruit punch to my nose. There is a tart note that packs a wallop, but I love it. On me, it stays true to scent and lasts quite awhile. What else can I say about it? It's a delicious, delightful, celebratory champagne of a scent. Just smelling it lifts my mood.
  8. I would like to reserve one as well because I am now curious about it due to the extreme interest. I guess I've also caved to the pressure!
  9. I love this in the vial. On me, it turns sweet, super strong and perfume-y. It settles down eventually but it stays as strong perfume for a good long while. I'm not sure how I feel about the scent on me. This is going to be one that I'm going to have to try again to see what it does. I didn't really get "incense" out of it, although I think now I might know what Nag Champa smells like. The scent of this reminds me of those shops that sell mystical things, like crystals and stones, tarot cards, etc.
  10. Ooooh, this one is so pretty! I get green floral, as many others said. There's a very sweet, fresh note I'm getting that I really like. I can't figure out if it's the daffodil or the orange blossom. I think the daffodil, because it reminds me of picking them in the woods and sticking my nose into their dewy petals to take a sniff. Yep, I get everything--freshly-picked daffodils, cold, wet dew...everything. Mmmm, I think I will need a full bottle of this one.

    Oh, you're welcome. . I wasn't sure if you did that here or what, but that's why I mentioned it--I thought maybe somebody might want to merge them.

    Bayou Musk

    There are two threads for this scent...I guess I'll use this one. This scent is just...odd. To me, I mean. I like it in the vial. There's a note in it that I kind of just don't recognize, and I was curious to see what it would do on my skin, but I certainly wasn't expecting what happened! It turned into rubber tires on my skin, at least at first. There was also something that reminded me of butterscotch. Eventually the rubber tires smell faded, and it just became a nice soft musk. Nothing terribly exciting, but nice. That was so weird. I'm going to have to try it again sometime.
  13. This smells so sweet and innocent to me. Very powdery. Like scented baby powder. My husband wasn't impressed. I like it, but I don't feel like it really stands out at all. I am not feeling innocent today so I decided to slut it up a bit with some Aja this evening.
  14. This is the only link to a description I could find: Are these phero'd? I have no idea. I got them off of the Etsy shop. Anyway, I had them sitting by my computer and I would catch a whiff once in awhile even without them being melted, and it was dreamy. I decided to put one on my warmer tonight, and OH MY GOD. It smells soooo nice in here! I love it. The scent is fresh and sweet and refreshing, like the air after a spring rain. Which is funny because there were others about "after the rain" or "spring rain" (I think I have Spring Rain actually, but I haven't tried those yet), but I think this one fits the bill. It reminds me of home in the mountains. If they are still available, I will definitely be buying this scent again. I would love for my house to smell like this all the time.
  15. Bahahahahahahahaha! I don't blame you; I would have done the same.

    Autumn Wishes

    With this one today (yesterday? It's after midnight. Anyway...) I end my testing of the "A's." Thank god. I was really getting tired of the letter 'A,' as ridiculous as that sounds. I love the scent in vial and on my skin wet. When it dries down it gets musky and soft, very pretty, but it doesn't really stand out. For that reason, I will have to test it again in the future. It's also a bit powdery. The mental image it gives me is a nice, warm but not hot day when the dandelions have gone to seed, with that endless, deep blue sky right around noon, and you're lying in the grass looking up at the sky as you blow the seeds off the dandelions. Totally carefree, like when you were a kid.
  17. Mine shipped today. For some reason that news makes me feel like running around in circles.

    Top Five

    Oooh, how fun! Mine, at least for now, are: 1. Lady Suzy's Snow Leopard 2. Glass Slipper 3. Halo's Cocoa Lily 4. Amphitrite 5. I have no idea. Pumpkin Juice Cocktail? Totem: Tiger? Eye of the Storm? Unisexy? I don't know!!!
  19. Oooh...I'll have to keep an eye on that and hope it stays in stock for awhile!
  20. Wow! That was fast! I'm jealous, I want mine! hahaha
  21. Well, I had a hard time finding this thread! The search thingie didn't want to accept any of my words. Of course I was spelling "Color" the American way, since LPMP is an American company. I don't know if it would have let me look up "colour." Anyway... First of all, when I put this on this morning, I realized that I think it would be best in a spray. If I were to decide to buy a full bottle, I would definitely want it in spray. I'm not sure why I feel this way...maybe it needs more "throw?" I just went to look up the notes and I see it's in the archives now! It's sold out already!? This is terrible news. It's one I might have considered getting in a full bottle. So, I do like the scent. It's very fruity, and I agree with another reviewer that the cherry comes through the most (for me, anyway). I also like the concept because I love rainbows. So do I want to smell like a rainbow? Why, yes, yes I do. Unfortunately not all the notes work out on my skin, but overall I like it. Peach--there's something about the peach scents that turn plasticky on my skin. It happens with this scent too, but luckily the cherry is strong enough that I don't think it's very noticeable. All together, it's a cheerful, happy scent that I find sort of uplifting, and like I said, it's definitely one I would consider buying in a full bottle.
  22. I've had that experience already--some things I didn't like at first, I like now. I've also had the opposite experience of liking something, and then not liking it the next time I try it. That's why I'm not sure I'd ever be able to sell any of mine on the trade boards! I'm too changeable.
