  1. My vote is for Open Windows. H&S and TH could leave the ladies yacking it up in your kitchen all night.
  2. Mine came a day early, too! Anyone with itty sets should try Erin's Peche first or miss out forever!!!
  3. Omg, I'll take them. BUT I'm seriously not wanting to it be a greedy perfume whore-der, so I really am willing to take even none of them. At least until Tuesday, April 17th, 2pm PST. Thank you Mara! And Erin, whoever you are, you smart smart lady!
  4. So, are there PE rules, like one bottle per non-creating customer? Because I feel like I should give you guys 24 hours to get it together and claim some Latte Peche, I really love many of you, and I want you to be happy. On the other hand, all is fair in love, perfume, and parking. What if I never find another perfume that I love like this? I'm sure I'll regret much on my deathbed, but the Peach That Got Away shouldn't be one of them. So, if you want it you should get it today. Today, I want to share. Today I really want you to have some, too, but who knows what tomorrow may bring.
  5. I'm afraid I may never sample any of the new releases, even though they're currently at my house. I love this so much, I've already put it on twice. I would go for a third but I don't want to waste it or go scent blind. What if I never want to wear anything else again? What if this is it? I just go to my grave, hands knarled, locked clenched onto empty bottles of this and Lick of Cream and Wicked? This is why I'll never work in marketing. "Buy this perfume and you're guaranteed to die with your old thickened knuckles clutching the empty bottle!" So, yeah. It smells good. Not a bright Peach, a sexy lickable Peach on a very grown up decadent and seasonal pastry, with some hardened large sugar crystals on it's top in the best smelling coffee shop in the entire world.
  6. It looks like there are only one or two bottles of Latte Peche left. I just tore into mine, it's heavenly. If you're on the fence, you'd better move fast! It's GOOD! Even 5 min after the mailperson handed it over. I'd expect men to follow me down the street if I mixed it with an OCCO, currently leaning more white than Ambrosia.
  7. I'm reading mermaid scent reviews currently, and there's a theme with everything Mara makes with seaweed. Before ladies get their trials, there's a lot of "I'm afraid of the seaweed, I dunno," and then later reviews often have "I wish it had as much seaweed as X did!" It's making me giggle. Not out loud, just in my mind. Tells me two things 1) We are a tough crowd 2) Mara knows best I currently have 2015 Mermaids of Atlantis on, the flowers are a little too sharp for me. Sometimes flowers like gardenia and jasmine try to prove they're tough by punching me in the face. Soaked is less floral, I get that from the reviews, but does the combo of coconut/honey/vanilla/ylang/sandalwood make it warm-ish? Or the water accord and seaweed keep it cool? Mermaids has cucumber, which is green/cooling to me, it's hard to get to the seaweed past the flowers who've got their dukes up. Really, I need another perfume like I need a hole in my head, but I finally have two bathing suits I'm stoked on and I'm going back to Hawaii in a month so I am very Soaked curious.
  8. I have run the rollerball across the top of my yoga mat multiple times for extra concentration during teaching, it helps me a lot. I don't know how long the pheros stay after the oil completely evaporates, but I believe it's a while. My mat is non-porous so it doesn't sink in, just right there on the top where I can witness and smell it. I'm not crazy about the scent, mint in perfume just rubs me he wrong way due to past associations, it's not Focus Pocus' fault, and I keep reaching for it nonetheless, because Focus Potion really works for me. I normally get Sundays off, but had to teach a meditation class at 8am so put it directly on me instead of my mat and it helps me so much. I wish Mara could make something else with this formula! I believe it was a supplier issue, and Mega Watt is meant to work the same, but it doesn't for me. I feel really grateful to have this and my UN Focus Potion. Thanks Stacy!
  9. I'm checking editing... edit- and that would be a yes.
  10. Oh dear. I also get excited when it's highlighted in the topics, order pending or not!
  11. We love the last variation of Mark's Girl Nip, and my man has a back up bottle, so I did get him the trial of this variant, and he filed it away untested. I did receive a sample in my last order, though, so I put it on his nightstand yesterday and he put it on today. It's much more chocolate forward when wet than the older variant, and I'm noticing only listed ingredient change is dark chocolate where before it was cocoa absolute. I understand that there are always differences in rebrews, but my question is, is the dark chocolate that much more powerful? Or the cocoa absolute is more slow and steady? Or is chocolate the kind of note that fades over the years, like citrus? As I didn't get my hands on the original Girl Nip until the bottles were a few years old, was the first brew more chocolate forward from the gate? I'm only asking because I'm curious. It will be a while before we need more Girl Nip! I'm guessing the dark chocolate is just initially stronger, and it receded a bunch after the first hour. Luckily we have enough of the new version to do side by side/wrist by wrist comparisons in the near future.
  12. Agreed on the complexity. I expect it to stay a fluffy fruit salad and it's so much more! I've worn it for my am perfume two days in a row.
  13. I looked up the notes on Royal C, and holy shit I've seen that box, maybe my stepfather or grandfather wore it. Definitely someone's dad that I knew kept it around. It's called a chypre, which means citrus, Oakmoss (the powder!), patchouli, musk (more powder) and something green or woody or floral. Based on that, try samples of LP #9 and Tonka Musk, I bet he'd be stoked on either one of those. Mike's Havana on Earth is based on men's 80's scents and I love it, but it's maybe a little intense for you man, definitely not powdery. Maybe he'd like Stormy Weather, but then you'd be phero bombing yourself with True Confessions. He also might like Connect with Teddy BB or Attis, both very different than his RC but worth getting him to try samples. My favorite old man scent is Desperation and Djinn, but like if I personally was a dirty old man, that's what I'd smell like. Pretty sure your man doesn't want to smell like a woman pretending to be an old, rich, drunken pervert.
  14. Yeah, we can't edit at the moment, we'll have to work on our proofreading skills.
  15. Ah, I'm sorry, I know very little about old man scents. Like Old Spice? What does he wear?
  16. Yeah, the "watery, earthy, woody...give off the aura of a Magic Man! " description is a bad one for me, watery isn't my thing, and he amps wood like crazy. Hmmm. See what I said there?
  17. Clearly I'm a terrible girlfriend. It's April, he's wanted this since December! He just finished off a sample, "I want to smell like this every time I get out of the shower. In fact, I want it in a spray. I want everyone to smell me and say, 'Wow, he smells clean. He must've just gotten out of the shower.'" It's not my favorite, but that's okay. Green watery scents just aren't my thing, but this one is good and I like that he enjoys it so much. As this forum is my witness, I will not omit River and Rain from my next order.
  18. Yum! My man's wearing a sniffle of this for the first time and WE WANT MORE. Guess I know what he gets next! He also has Open Arms w/ OW, this is a good social phero for him.
  19. I've been to Japan only once, but during the cherry blossom season, so I got the full experience, but I cannot remember anything about the scents.
  20. Yeah! Winning! Come on now, we have like 10 spectacular creations for every one of theirs. Share! Plus someday when you get scolded for "too many boxes of perfumes" arriving on your doorstep, you can shake the box at him and say, "But your back up of Girl Nip is in here!" Besides his own charming self, does he have any scents guaranteed to get you purring that he knows to reach for?
  21. Hey, HexKitten, I probably meant to say more than "bummer." It sucks it doesn't work for you! You can try it in a scent locket, or on lava beads, although one of the best things about BBM is having it huffed off of your body. I have a chocolate blend that smells gross on me, but I use it in a scent warmer with wax and it makes my kitchen smell fabulous and throws the pheros around. If you keep it, try it in a wax warmer in your bedroom. I'm thinking OCCO White might work better for your chemistry, maybe get a trial of that and/or Odalisque if you want a scrumptious sexy vanilla.
