Rosebud

Oh yes, this one is lovely. It really is a "clean" or pure vanilla scent. Not perfumey or buttery. Just pure sweet vanilla. This one is lush on its own but pure enough to be layerable with most scents

This is a great idea Makes it so much easier finding scents.

Just curious tho... Why isn't Honeyed Love Potion in that part of the forum?

So sad about this.... This one is lovely lush creamy vanilla with dark, bitter chocolate...for the first few minutes but as it dries down the scent fades

This one sadly fades quite fast on me It's lovely before it fades tho... After drydown I get a creamy coffee scent with the creaminess being very much like the coconut you get in suntan lotion or cocoabutter. Odd as I don't think there are any nuts at all in this one?

OMG!!! The excitement!

A honey scent that doesn't go rank on Rosebud!!! Woohoo!!! This one is luscious! I get bright honey with a fruity top note, (I'm guessing it's the apricots), though I can't say the fruity note is very specific for any particular fruit. There is also a sexy, spicy warmth underneath it all which is probably the cinnamon coming through. It reminds me of those big red chewing gums. Funnily enough I don't get LP Red from this but then I used to always amp the cinnamon and vanilla with LP Red. I never got any fruit with it like most people did.

This one is nice but not quite enough cupcake for me to want to go full hog and get a bottle. I amp something in this, not sure what exactly, maybe the type of musk?Made me think it had labdanum in it? This one me is almost identical to Holle. My fellow old-timers will know which one I'm talking about

This one is lovely, very light & feminine. I got a full bottle even tho I don't do florals or powdery scents. It's just such a beautiful scent & it's great for work too

Speaking as a female in the surgical field, I'd go for TH, or possibly a LIGHT dose of SWS. Surgeons are usually quite particular about things & ENT surgeons tend to lean towards the "anal retentive & set in their ways" end of the spectrum. The older generation are often even more old school so they really don't like being told what to do. Most don't like it when patients try and tell them what they want done, especially not females. They are still stuck in their old ways and the old way of paternalistic medical practice where "the doctor knows best" and simply tells the patient the diagnosis & what investigations/treatments they as doctor have decided the patient needs, rather than involving the patient in the decision process.

I've alway had much better results with social blends or softer more female ones like H&S, TH or lace. Whenever I used SWS, Dom or leather around male surgical colleagues they became very stand-offish & irritable with me. I was never treated as an equal wearing the more alpha type blends, I always got more respect when I emphasised my softer side.

Well I still have a vanilla variety that has your name on it. But I also have another 35-40 fruits, resins and flowers to go... just send some pix that you think might work well on a label and I'll match it with something suitable.

 

I emailed you a few pics Go wild!

Oh yeah, bring on the vanilla! I'll see what pics I can rustle up

Ahem....I do not think I have a pic from you yet, Rosebud!!!

 

email: CataLunaLPMP@yahoo.com

 

No pressure.

 

LOL

Which label/s are you still looking for pics for? Any particular scents or do you just want any kind of pic?

Yay, yahoooo & double yay!!! It all looks absolutely amazing

Can't wait to get ordering! Best thing is that all the yummy goodies will arrive just in time before my birthday! I love the timing of the August sale too. Makes like I get loads of extra birthday prezzies

Frais Citron means Strawberry Citrus.

 

I made this one to smell like lemon poundcake with strawberries on top. YUMMMMMERS!

How does it compare to Caught in the Act? On me CitA is all lush, rich lemon cake....it's droolworthy

NEED PICTURE OF ROSEBUD FOR LABEL!!!

 

I was planning on these for sure: Vanilla Bean, French Vanilla, and the dry perfumey vanilla that many people adore. I also have the cakey vanilla under Sugared Birthday Cake, for which I intend to have a "frosted" feel. Any others that you would suggest? I can do a "Bourbon" type by boozing up a vanilla bean oil, but that would be similar to the recently released Nola.

Vanilla bean is a definite must have Personally I'm not too big on French vanilla because it tends to go plastic on me but I can see how it would be popular. A vanilla cake scent would be ace too. I also love softer, fluffy vanillas like what you'd get with white musk scents or K's silken moonlight.

Personally because I love my baking, I'd love a pure really intense vanilla. Not a cake or cake batter scent, but a pure vanillin/vanilla extract type scent.

Oh, and a lush honeyed vanilla wouldn't be unwelcome either

Oh, this is so exciting! I adore my sugared roses. Got to have some sugared violets too

Which vanillas will you have as sugared?

Oooh! Luna hasn't been in here since this a.m.! Is she typing her talented hands off???

OMG, I really hope so Can't wait for the descriptions!

This all looks totally fab as usual

I'm especially intrigued by purple since its my favourite colour...pretty much 80% of my wardrobe is purple

I'm soo hoping purple is a scent with violets

I reckon that sounds about right Maybe some Easter scents?

Easter egg hunt? Naughty bunnies?

Oh lordy.... Can't wait to read the descriptions! I have a feeling this will be a rather expensive month.... So far I'm thinking the purple, cupcake, irish rose and BB spray are calling my name...

And then there's the PEs too of course

I think my baby is coming valentines day!! I thought that months ago, plus I heard it's a full moon, and that labour wards get really busy on the full moon so I think it could happen.

That wouldn't surprise me at all. In ED we always have really busy shifts with lots of extra crazy stuff coming in during full moons. Especially mood & aggression related stuff so more OD's, suicide attempts, assaults, bar brawls, domestic violence etc... And then there's the weird & sometimes funny accidents that come in

ED is always a pumping madhouse around the full moon...

 

Prediction: "Me, Jane" coming back!

OMG!!! Yeeeeeeeeessss pleeeeeeeeaaaase!!!

Has anyone who tried this amped the brown sugar? Itching to try this but am a bit worried it'll take over completely

I really like this one. On myself and on mr Scrumptious

I can see the resemblance to Boddice Ripper...and to Cocked n Loaded. This one is somewhere In between the two. It's not as dark & musky as BR, it's a lot brighter & fresher, but it's less sweet & floral than CnL

On me CnL is for sure unisex, easily worn by women, but I reckon Valhalla will work as uni sexy for many women too

Sigh....I've tried it 3 times now. Same thing each time....Nothing but amping sandalwod to hell

I've put my bottle in my trading post, along with some other goodies

Am I the only one who is TOTALLY IN LUUURVE with this one??

I'm baffled as I really can't do honey...AT ALL!. It smells like rank plastic play doo on me. There are very few of the LPs containing honey that I can wear, the scents mainly honey based are a definite no-no, they make me stink

But this Aja is just lush! I love it! It's like a gorgeous gooey honey scent with a touch of musk. Not enough to make it dirty (like eg. Sexology), but enough musk to make it sexy. This is what I've always wished honey scents would be like on me I sooo need to get a full bottle...or ten
