Wonderful! Thanks JOC, I'm very intrigued by that one!

Super fun time waster: go back to the beginning of this section and look at alllllll the new release threads! You will Oooo and Ahhhh over the labels, maybe see some things you forgot you had, and yes, cry a little about a few you missed or are GGG. But I loved looking at all the labels...PE descriptions too. It's fun! Just something to do whilst stalking!

I dunno about soap, but Mara has Phero enhanced bath bubbles at her shop, which you can buy and have shipped to you. Look at the store merchandise thread. As far as linen spray, there are Phero scent perfume sprays, so I don't see why not. You could buy one and use it as is (damn expensive linen spray though!), or further dilute it with an alcohol carrier of some sort. Also, there's Phero enhanced wax melts for oil warmers that Mara already makes. They are on etsy and artfire, I think. They smell amazing!! Good luck! PS: she makes a Phero enhanced body cream too!

Yeah, after years of trying, I came to the conclusion that I couldn't do this either. I don't thinnnnk it's the honey, I think it's the cops. Every time I wear anything with obvious cops, my boyfriend says I smell like old wet laundry. And that's not only with Phero Girl, but all the OCCO variants too! I have even let myself dry down for a half hour before dressing and still get this comment! Things with 'a drop of cops' are fine, but when it's full blast, I just can't pull it off. Wish I could, yall sound like your having a blast!

Oh Wendy, you make it sound delightful! I was concerned about grape, but now because of you, I REALLY want to try it. I loooove violets, even the powder bomb ones! I don't really dig grapes as a scent though (some wine scents I like, but not grapes) but if it's just a slight accent note, I can hang with it! I shall pick some up soon hopefully!

I'm thinking you really should try out a couple spell oils. Serenity Potion, maybe even Peaceful Home for when he's around. Those things are nothing to sneeze at! They work better, IMHO, than pheros do. I dunno, I guess I'm sorta of the mind where if someone's brain chemistry is a little off base, why mess with it more? But I know folks love they're pheros! Just a thought. Also, maybe gently let him know that you can be in treatment without taking medicine. I have a pretty awful anxiety issue, and my counselor actually comes right to my house once a week. It really helps to talk to him! Sometimes having an unbiased stranger as a sounding board goes a long ways. I've been offered antidepressants, but declined. No one can make him be medicated unless he wants to be. And I only said 'suicidal' because of the comment "I'm going to go away too". That sounds a little serious to me. Good luck to you, whatever you decide, and again, big welcome to our home!

This smells amazing! Each ingredient is so high quality, its a simple composition, but so well balanced, very beautiful scent. I love yang and sandalwood and the combo here is just wonderful sweetened with vanilla and warm with spice. I only wish I could take the whole scent, as it is, and dial it up a few notches so it was a tad louder. This wears very soft on me, which, though I love it, will relegate it to a bedtime scent, or casual day around the house perfume. Hey, what can I say, it's pretty but I like a bit of punch throughout the day and this fades down super soft on me within an hour. I DO love the ylang here though, so much! Feels heavier here than in Sugared Ylang, and I appreciate that. Overall, this is a delicate beauty, and I'm very glad to have a sample (thanks Pherengineer! ) this will be great to wear when I want to feel comfy cozy before bedtime, or anytime.

Tried this one out yesterday. It's like Hearts & Tyvey say on me: super duper girly swirly pinkly twinkly. It's soooo preeeeety. I enjoy it, it has that shiny and new thing again from the orchid(adds a gloss to things, in my mind), and the peony is so pink and unabashedly feminine. Take these flowers and further gussy em up with sparkly pink sugar and sheer skin musk, and there ya go. I wish I got more purple in here, but the wisteria isn't showing up much for me. Not much cream either, just a tad at the end,after it's been on my skin for a few hours. It does stay put quite well, I could smell it on my hand for over half the day, even through hand washings, but it doesn't throw very far. I can't speak for phero effects, cause I didn't go anywhere yesterday, but I was in a pretty good mood yesterday, so maybe thats something. I'm not heartbroken over missing a FB of this, but I'm glad to have a large sample of it! Edit because my computer changed Tyvey's name!

CONGRATS CUTIE PIE!! Wow, 5000?! You GO! I think that is a quote from Practical Magic? Nicole Kidman?

I would second the Balm Bomb, and also suggest that you look into Mara's Spell Oils too. I am no expert either, but i wanted to say WELCOME to our forum! Also, not trying to sound condescending, but if he's talking suicidal stuff..is he in therapy? Pheromones and scent therapy can only do so much. I'm saying this as someone who is in therapy myself, so I hope you don't think I'm trying to belittle him. It just sounds like he could use a professional to help sort out some of his issues.

HAHAHAHA! You are awesome! And your right...no one does pumpkin beer....I'm very curious . Not exactly sure about that, but if its stout enough, I can see it being pretty yummy! Btw, how in heck do you guys make your letters run off the page like that?

Ha!! Bizzare! It's a year later to the month and I wore Babe in the Woods after my shower, which got me thinking about this stuff again, and waxing poetic about how I wish I had added a sugar or vanilla to this---AGAIN! Enter Sugared Vanilla Bean! I just want to say that even though this is an older LP, Sugared Vanilla Bean layered over this is freakin WONDERFUL! Just GORGEOUS! So, anyone (cough cough, Stacy), that wanted to redo this one...add vanilla bean! Or maybe someday I'll redo this one that way, although my next "baby" themed PE will be called "Babycakes". It will have "baby smell", pink sugar, pink musk,oakmoss(?) and....CAKE! Probably yummy yellow or white birthday cake with thick frosting, and my little person will grace the label!

I love Babe in the Woods! As soon as I saw Mara describe it as a grown up Loves Baby Soft I knew I had to have it! That is what I wanted my Sweet Baby PE to be,grown up Baby Soft,and I like SB a lot, especially for its tenacity which isn't often seen in such a light scent, but I must admit a shocker: I like this one more! It's really just truer to form. Sweet Baby would be perfect with the addition of oakmoss and either tonka like this has, or a vanilla. Something to sweeten it up a tad. I asked for no sugar in SB, and I think it was my folly. Still love it, but this one hits the nose in a smoother, softer way. I don't get any green, it's pale pale pink and Robins egg blue. Dreamy, casual,comfy and nostalgic. If you dig this, also check out New, Sneaky Clean & Give Peas a chance. They are all different, but each retains that casual, almost childlike innocence that smells so fresh and approachable. There's also a coolness to this one, it's great on a warm day, or anytime your body or mind feels over heated or over wrought. And this one lasts pretty decently too, not as good as New or Sweet Baby, but not half bad. Far better than actual Loves Baby Soft, which I enjoy layering with this. Today I'm wearing this with a few spritzes of Chantilly, it's a nice combo! Woody, sweet and soft! Makes me want to cozy up with some tea and my sleeping baby with a good movie, and if I conk out, all the better! Eta: I was saying Sweet Baby needs oakmoss, but IS baby powder oakmoss? I'm just curious if they are two separate notes. I know SB has 'baby powder' in it, but isn't that essentially oakmoss? Just curious. I guess I just wish I would have put a sugar or vanilla in SB, but hey, that's what the layerables are for! Maybe I'll have to put some Halo on my Sweet Baby!

Yeah! And I hope yall know that I say this with love: all this chatter about y'all not getting your Weenies this year is plumb BS. You know you can't resist the Weenies!! You guys are full of bananas!

Two? I think just two. Btw, you gotta go look in the trade thread. I put up a message to you in there. It's its own thread.

Got a sample of this in a trade (Thanks McCreeps! ) and I freaking love this. I really dropped the ball on this one. I had dismissed this back in the day because of the whole chocolate thing, well that was really dumb of me because I barely even get chocolate in here. Its there wet, but as soon as it dries it's all violets and that 'real' blueberry note that I just love! This is delicious and spectacular and I'm sad that I was so dumb in 2009! Wah!!! Oh well, if anything, I've learned that the combo of blueberries and violets is a win. Add a touch of almond and you have a PE in the makings! Maybe with a nice extract vanilla and some pink & white sugar...Mmmmmmm. At least I can do that! And watch the trades for this. But if anyone comes across this one, I highly recommend it, it's super awesome. I thought it might be a bit like Tyvey's Wonderland,but it's really it's own animal. At least I have the sample! ETA_It's a bit further into dry down now,bout two and a half hours, this is GLORIOUS! I am getting more vanilla and it's the kind from Sugared Vanilla Bean I think. It's a little boozy,but it doesn't overpower the other notes,its just wonderful! I am really kicking myself for missing out on this stuff! Grr!!

I just got this (thanks Bella!) and I love it too, I'll do a full review when it's not first thing in the morning (not even a sip of coffee yet!),but I was looking at the ingredients and wondering if this is meant to be a protection potion at all? Kind of feels that way to me. I'm asking because as some of you know, theres been some odd things going on at my mom's house. I know the "Treasure Of" line wasn't intended as a spell oil set, but theres a bit of magic in everything Mara cranks out,no? I am just thinking with the silver flakes,pepper,frankincense,etc,that this could be used in such a way at bedtime. I guess I'm just curious if that was also part of what was intended, kind of a spell oil type of thing with this one?

Wow! Well, that is a wonderful description, and takes the "fear factor " away for me...your own PERSONAL underworld! I get it now, and I can dig that. Godspeed on your journey my friend,and maybe, if its in the cards for me, I'll get to try some one day!

I really wanted to try this one(I agree with Halo, the PEs of yours that I've tried are AWESOME,mojo is my favorite!) but I must admit,the intent of this one scares me a little! Like, I have a full bottle of Spectre Potion, but I'm too freaked out to wear it, especially since my moms house has had some strange activities going on..I reallllly wouldn't want to make that stuff any more apparent than it already is around here! Navigation of the Underworld..what do you mean to do exactly? I mean if that's too private I totally get it, I'm just curious about it is all. You can tell me to hush if I'm crossing any lines! Love you!

Ooh..I have to second Wicked! Also Im really enjoying Tarot: The Lovers, but Wicked is a wonderful Fall Gourmand!

WELCOME MINX!! There certainly IS alot to love around here. Enjoy! Looking forward to getting to know you!

AHHHH...Anyone else get this?? I mean I'm sure its all gone anyway, but this kind of specific thing fascinates me. Any more reviews? I'm especially curious about that sandalwood, I'm guessing its the "paper " part of the scent, right?

YAYYYYY!! Glad you got your stuff and you dig it! Of course, I kinda knew you would!

Everything Memorare said sums it up for me too. Exactly. vagina jazz hands....HAhahaha!

This reminds me of LP Winter Variant 2011, bit more obviously green, but I feel that the pine and sugar is the same soft, gentle and somehow edible Christmas tree scent. I like it alot! Its obviously not as complex as Winter Variant, but I like how its more pine-y. This is what I had wanted the old Sugared Forest to smell like. I have a small bottle from Bella,bout half full. This does end up being one of the more sheer ones on me, throw going down to a skin scent pretty rapidly, so I probably won't get more of this,as that's the same problem I had with Winter Variant. I'll definitely keep what I have though, and enjoy it! I still have Odinclause for when I desire a stronger pine scent..might layer this over it to girl it up a bit.
