  1. I was fortunate enough to score this in the sale and am testing it today. I don't usually like all perfumes at all stages but this one is an exception. It is rich vanilla extract in the initial application, I mean like the good stuff..the expensive stuff. On the dry down I am getting sweet boozy vanilla and sweet smoke. This is so lovely!

  2. OH YAY!

     

    Guys and gals, any of you who, like me, had a "thing" for the original Coty Wild Musk Oil, you know that it can no longer be found, and the spray is just not the same!! I have a small amount of the oil, and sent Mara a sample, and she made her version! YAY YAY YAY! Can't wait to try it!!!

    Congratulations Dolly! What a cool idea!!

  3. Welcome! I am pretty new too. The products are great and the people are wonderful. Not to sound too much like a line from "Annie" but I think you're gonna like it here!! :-)

  4. Your about to be in heaven! LPs Weenies are the best!! ALWAYS! And yeah, you with your autumn penchant? Shooot, be prepared to lose a good chunk of your bank account. :P at least you'll smell good doing it!

    RIP brookejones, you died smelling what you loved.

    No, you will die of malnutrition because you will spend all your grocery money on LPs haha! :D

     

    Ha ha ha ha ha! I barely made it through that damn sale!!! All I can say is it is good that dear daughter's tuition is paid and who really needs electricity anyway??? :-0

  5. I got this one in the sale and I really like it. I was a bit apprehensive of the maple. Maple does terrible things on my skin. The shift on this one was interesting. The first thirty minutes is all pumpkin-apple-sugar-vanilla goodness. Bakery style goodness. After that the maple really amped on my skin. It was so strong I almost took it off, but this phase did not last long at all and I was glad I waited it out. The dry down is where you get the woodsy/leaves vibe combined with the bakery smell. It is very very nice! Very fall.

  6. I really don't want to post about this, because if there are any bottles left I wants them for myself!!! The amber, pumpkin, and apple combine to make the most delicious scent. It has an outdoorsy vibe and is pretty much that Autumn-in-a-bottle scent I have been seeking. It smells like the BBW Leaves scent, but tweaked a bit to be worn as a perfume. I am RUNNING to Etsy for more.

  7. Being new, this will be my first time to shop the autumn and Halloween scents!!! I cannot wait to see what's coming. Autumn and foody scents are my favorites..,,so if there are Autumn foody scents, I will most likely die of happiness :-)

  8. HELP! HELP! The newbie needs help! In the midst of my frenzy, I made a rookie mistake! But it is a great problem to have....I have another free bottle to choose. I have no idea what to go with. If you guys could choose one bottle from the remainder of the sale inventory, what would it be? I love Fall scents and gourmands. I ordered 221b, Goldiefingers, Apparition, Candy Cane Cookies, Nola, and Gilded Season so far.

     

    Thanks ! :-)

  9. Minx77,

    I am fairly new too and I second all your exclamations! The products are out of this world and the people with the company and on the forum are some of the kindest I have met. It is so nice to have people that share a common love of good scents. Welcome and happy sniffing!!

  10. This smells exactly like fresh-baked pumpkin bread, but better because of the frosting note (as much as I wish I could eat frosting on my pumpkin bread, if I did that every day my clothes wouldn't fit). I really get more of a creamy vanilla frosting than a pink sugar frosting, which is more obvious in Unreasonable Pumpkin. Actually, after forgetting the notes the first time around I was hoping it would skew predominantly pumpkin cake and vanilla so WIN!

    Yep! That is so true! I have been wearing this one non stop. It is all spiced pumpkin and vanilla on me. One of my favorite things about this one is that it wears a little stronger than most of the fairy cakes. I would have never ordered this, but I bought the Fairy Cakes sampler and this was to me a super standout of the group. I immediately went full bottle on this one and it looks like I will need another one very soon :-). This is a perfect Fall transition scent. The spiced pumpkin makes it Fall, but the vanilla cake note makes it a little lighter. This one has been great for me in this crazy 90 degree weather when I am longing for Fall!

  11. This was the most surprising perfume of all. I THOUGHT I did not like florals or clean scents at all. Not my thing! I likes the sweet stuff! But this one really schooled me! As soon as I tried it, I knew I would need a full bottle. I like some clean scents in candle form but even those are "sharp" to my nose. I never liked the clean cottons or fresh linens. They just did not smell good to me and I definitely would not have worn those as a perfume. But this...this is so different while maintaining the clean scent. It is very clean. It smells like the best laundry detergent/fabric softener/soap/body wash ever made. But it also has a very sweet smell which is balanced by a floral honey. It is so so so good! Even if you don't like florals or clean scents you will like this one. My favorite way to use it is after a bath and before bed. I have the spray form and I can smell it on my sheets. It also has some linger in the morning which almost extends the clean feeling from the shower or bath the night before. Try this one for sure. I really think this one will appeal to 99.9 percent of the population.

  12. This is so danged good! It is a very pretty, sweet honey with just a hint of vanilla and apricot. I am not getting much patch. The amber is subtle and only seems to deepen the scent.

     

    I seriously think I am going to have to get a crap ton of full bottles from this latest sampler. I have not found even one scent I dislike. I needs them all!!!

  13. This is such a pretty, sweet, floral. I am getting mostly sweet melon, plumeria, magnolia, and something green. Maybe the cucumber? It is very calming. I think this would be good to put on after a bath for good sleep.

  14. Wow! This is great! I did have this converted to a spray. On me, it is pretty equally marshmallow, smoke, and vanilla sugar. It doesn't have a lot of throw but it is so nice. Oddly enough, I have a candle....I think it is marshmallow fireside? ....that is very similar.
