Nightlife

Using your logic, I expressed MY opinion and that was the end of it. According to you, we all feel free, right? So, I am entitled to state my views, just as you are and have here, without chastisement for it. I don't need you to agree with me, k?

And my point was that your point seemed unnecessary.

Now THAT'S a true statement, but in a slightly different direction here. Like MissDarlynCherie, I don't get any chocolate aroma with this, at least at first. What I do get is a primal blast of cops flavor. They are there for a little while, not covered so much as welded with the intense tropical fruit/deep maraschino cherry. I'll definitely take the time to help them dry out and let the fruitiness reign. Once that happens, a bit of cocoa comes out to play, shy and sweet. Overall, it's a lovely intro to OCCOWorld for me. And my dear male friend looooved it

Chiming in for a 10ml of Winnie's Almond Musk, thanks.

So? If there were a market for the scent alone, I'm sure it could be offered that way in time with little trouble, as many others have been.

My sample of G & L 2 let me experience what's it like to smell like the bakery box the goodies came in. I mean it, stray dabs of cream cheese and cinnamon atop white cardboard innards. Thanks anyway!

Glad to hear it! Haven't received mine yet, but from the way it's going down, I'm beginning to believe everyone should try this.

Big love for Eternal Chain. For me it becomes a fruity pleasure, with sugar, pansy, papaya and water lily dominating yet grounded by all that amber. Would def recommend hunting for it if EST works well for you.

Now, I'd think that rose, honeysuckle, bergamot and amber would all be aces on me. Not so, not this time at any rate. Maybe the combo is just too close to my fabulous skin chemistry but it just absorbed into me, leaving a run-of-the-mill floral aroma. Two hours later, I get a lovely little honeysuckle/amber duet but it's a bit long to wait. BI nothwithstanding, I think I'll skip hunting this one down (unless, of course, I just happen to try it around some target and he LOVES it, everyone sing along now!).

Surprise, this is great on me. If you can wear sandalwoods or resins, get a sample. There are just enough florals to balance, but they don't really show their faces. The drydown is warm and sexy as Invidiana said and far more upscale than you might imagine. Really, it's high-falutin. This would be beautiful in a massage oil or a body cream.

Initially, it was pumpkin with a nice floral backdrop which became somewhat gingerbread-y for me as well. Unfortunately, it deflated on me into something rather flat and nondescript. Kind of boring, really. There's much better out there for me.

Six bottles and two samples. When I'm back, I'm back with a bang! Helloooo, everyone I got: 2 OCCO Ambrosia Extracurricular Proclivities TMI (scented) Portmanteau Limelight and samples of Cat's Eye and The Sand Witch As you might guess from my selections, I'm looking for adventure. Didn't test even one.

Hi Tee, welcome aboard! Lovely to have you here. Warm welcomes to you too, Quin!

And I am FIRST in line for whatever you don't want...cause I have Krispy Kremes, hee hee hee!

Yeah, and I like "barriers" when it comes to helping my perfume to last.

*considers carefully* I think this might be the first time I need to order the sampler pack. As far as bottles go, weirdly enough, Groupie seems to be my scent. It reminds me of what I designed for August. Didn't think I was gonna want Body Paint, but I definitely do, and Vampire Bait sounds...killer. As far as pheros and phero scents go, I really want Heart & Soul (Open Windows would great for those purposes too) and Woozy Floozy. Maybe LAM. And let's face it, with my penchant for procrastination, Focus Potion may be a necessity when it comes to my journalism career. Of course, there's all the other stuff I need to order and catch up with!!!!!! Thanks, ladies! That sarcasm brought to you by my bank account.

Yay! Poverty, here I come!

This is really, really old-fashioned sexy. The beautiful, purple-y sweetness of the violet/vanilla/berries gives this one a sense of innocent allure. It's not cloying, just sweet enough to be clever, and later the resins come out just a tad more forcefully, like when a couple has courted long enough to become truly devoted to one another and the moment (the moment, I mean) is right. Trust me, the long courtship is worth the wait, both in love and with this charming perfume. I have only samples right now, but multiple bottles would be ideal. Ah, summer, me and Violitious

It is fun, isn't it? I'm pretty drooly about Jo Anna's Honeyed Sandalwood and Vanilla, meself...

And posting over here too as a herald: check out all the new private editions...with BUTTONS. Brown Sugar and Black Amber, anyone?

HEY, two private editions are up with buttons, y-ello! Edited to say I mean FIVE are up, maybe more to come!

Me neither. Double boo.

To review it, I had to revisit my first serious LPMP love affair. This is great stuff, and I didn't know I could loooove fig till I smelled this on me. It has a sweet, old-timey vanilla backdrop, like the smell of Norman Rockwell's grandma's kitchen. I'll be securing more of this for sure.

Nope, no peppermint or spearmint here, just fresh and cool herbs, with a touch of sweetness and...olive oil? Maybe I just need to shake up my vial! Lovely, lovely, and if you want to wear mint, I believe this is your ticket.

One from Ms. J! This starts out as black pepper. Peppery pepper, with a little sweetness. Soon mellows out with more sweetness and a bit o anise action. Slightly smoky, not in that obnoxious overpowering way that gets me sometimes, gentle vanilla flavor as well. All in all, a winner, and I may need to seek out a bottle for frequent reapp, as this one seems to meld with my skin quickly.
