  1. Yup, the sampler sets have been shipping for days. People should start getting them by morning!

     

    Don't know which one was THE fastest, there have been several that were gone within 2 weeks.

     

    But the wildest seller ever....Usually, I only make one edition, and that's it, but this one sold out and the demand was still so high, I made it again, and then again, and then AGAIN! FOUR brew editions in a month!

     

    Can anyone guess which one that was?

    OCCO Ambrosia?

    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.

     

    Can you do a cake batter vanilla?

  3. This goes on very sweet and plasticky. I agree it is like a strawberry creamsaver. After a while on the skin, it becomes less sweet and more like a strawberry musk. I like it better as it dries down a bit.

  4. When I first tried this it was all Hawaiian Punch and I didn't get any rose. I am trying it again today and it is still Hawaiian Punch, but I can pick up a faint rose in the background. It is really pretty and reminds me of the rose in Dark Seductions. As it's drying down, the fruit is burning off and I'm left with a soft rose scent. It is very subtle and I can barely smell it. Last time, the scent lasted a really long time I was left with a faint Hawaiian Punch with a little bit of Aja in the background. Weird how it is totally different today!

  5. At first, I thought this wasn't for me. All the sugared white musk scents like spider silk and egg smell the same to me. I thought this was indistinguishable from those but then I decided to wear only this with no other scents and it became totally different! It has a lot more going on. I get a subtle bright fruity scent which must be the apricot. There's something a little bit minty too and very subtle florals. It reminds me of a sheer lucky in love #7 without the green notes. It is so sheer yet complex. I love it.

    Don't be afraid of the Aja in this! It seems to have WAAAAYY less Aja than Torrid Sorcery did, I can't even smell it! I'm not a fan either, it is just too strong for me. I just dabbed a little on my arm to test it out, and I get a rich raspberry buttercream, but like hearts said, it ends up very much a sweet rose scent. There's a subtle sweet, spicy element behind the rose, maybe the storax? No scary Aja, so don't be afraid! :D

     

    That's good to know because aja is too strong on me too. I would be interested in hearing your review of poudre because it sounds lovely but I'm scared of the aja.

  7. I'm not usually a fan of florals, especially green florals but I like this one a lot! There's something peppery in this. Must be the carnation. I wish the intent would work for me but haven't seen any signs of it working yet.
