Wonderful Things!!!

How much Oud are y'all getting? I amp Oud and make it smell like a brush fire...but just a leeeetle tech of it works on my skin. For instance, I can't wear Sugared Oud. Everything else in this makes me want a full bottle. ~And to have a truly hot affair with it.~

Carny is the one I'm drooling over. And admittedly I lobbied for Ellie's Elephant Snacks and Sweet! (because it's a scientific fact that you can never have enough caramel apple scents).

Me too on Carny, and thank the Gods you lobbied for the other 2!!!

And: Hot damn, Woman--wonderful, evocative scribin'!!! You took me back to the Orange Show in San Bernardino. We'd go every year. the smells, the food, the rides...OMG they're all in your words. ~Now I wanna *smell* them all...

Woo-HOOOOO!!! STEP RIGHT UP!!! Gods, I LOVE the labels and the ticket!!!

AUGH!!! So COOOOLLLL!!!

And I just happen to have some funds right now. Coincidence...? I think not. *gigglesnort*

And hot-DAMN!!! Jennifer is GOOD!!!

Ye Gods! I've got it totally backwards. They don't call me Batsy for nothin'.

Don't we have the Pheromas coming up soon...? ...or am I just having another senior moment?

Mara, THANK YOU FOR MY GOODIE BAG!!! I was not expecting it yet. I LOVE Betsy's Apple, plus the soap & scrub are just so yummy and lovely! Mwaah!!!

The following people will be getting a Betsy Goodie Bag, for participating in our little 'post a pic' thingy the other day. They contain a trial size of each Betsy's Apple Perfume, Soap, and Scrub.

I will include them in your next order. Thanks for playing!

OMG!!! Thank you, Mara!!!

~This one was very, VERY loud.~

If there are any PE reserves still pending, please complete them this week. They will be released by the end of the week, thank you!

Oops!!! I just now saw this. So sorry, Mara! I assume I can just snag mine on Etsy or at the sale? Will the Itty sets be there, too? Actually, I can answer my own dang questions this evening. Hee! Soooooooo.....

Happy 4th of July!!!

There's one more scene to add...my brain just didn't want to cooperate last night, heh.

GAH!!! MORE...? MORE, PLEASE!!!! GOODY!!!!

Thank you for making that perfume, Mara!!!

Gods, all the perfumes look GREAT!!! And the punch looks YUMMY and I second luna's *grabby hands* for the perfume table!!!

Black Star Lavender made me tear up, too!!! It IS about both of them isn't it! Plus, luna, your poetry gives me (good) goosebumps. What doesn't tear me up makes me bumpitty! Hee!

The art is a collection of watercolors by an artist in Poland. It's the same artist I used for the last Spider Silk label, (I think that was it!) I do not know the person's name as I found this person through one of my licensing sites that sadly doesn't share that info. But they are lovely, I adore the work!

Gods, that was my first question. Those watercolors are gorgeous!!!

I CANNOT WAIT TO SMELL THE BLACK STAR LAVENDER. And aaalllll of them look so wonderful!!! You just made my evening!

Is it too early to sign up for an Itty PE Set? ~and I'm having a senior moment. Do I email Heather for an invoice? I gots things I should pay for.

Am really enjoying this! I've been trying to figure out how to describe it coherently, but just cannot do it. So: I get rose-ish, sweet, rich, sparkliness for quite a while...after which it gets all soft and pillowy...and at extreme drydown I have beautiful oakmoss. Every phase smells wonderful! Add the phero, and it's a total WIN!

Reserved, thank you, E!

YAAAYY!!! Thank you, Mara!!! I love it sooooooo freakin' much.

May I reserve a bottle of Lisa's Outback, please? Or...is it going to show up on Etsy in the next week or so?

LUUUUUNNAAAA!!! Another Great One! SQUEE!

This guy is how I am when your stories are posted. I live for them! I see the characters as you speak...er, write.

Are they ever going to get published, all together..like, on *paper*? Mara could carry 'em in the store!

I just signed up! I feel like much less of a dinosaur now. *gigglesnort*

I was thinking that punch would make a good perfume! We ought to have a Punch Drunk month! Mara could perfume-ize all her party punches!!! The label pics are already done! Hee!!! Oh, Maaaarrrrraaaaaaa...

Punch Drunk: Balls

Punch Drunk: Stars

Punch Drunk: Lovin' Libation (alternate version...Punch Drunk: Hairballs) *ducks and runs*

~will stop backing up through the party pics now~

I've worn this once, so far. It smells deliciously like I just walked out of a SERIOUS. PARTY. You may take for granted that my skin glorifies (not amps, just makes 'em sing!) the Patch, Cannabis, and Clove! Hee!!! I think I'm going to end up wearing this a lot...but perhaps not in any public place where I might be arrested...*gigglesnort* I didn't perceive any of the camellia/fresh thing, but the vanilla, sage, and amber were definitely players. Something in there gave me a subtle smoke note! It's a rich and satisfying scent. Seriously: This perfume smells like I've been playing a really good weed-friendly party, and having a fabulous time.

ETA a few days later: So I've been wearing this more. The extreme drydown, now that I've been *awake* to smell it--hee!!!--is exquisite. I still get all the stuff described above, plus now I think the camellia has been showing up, but I didn't recognize it before. I think it keeps the whole shebang lifted up, if you will. I am loving this more every time I wear it! Also, I am rescinding my not-wear-it-in-public statement. Once the cannabis blends, it doesn't stick out. One can perceive it, but everything just...entwines! This is a lovely, lovely scent, and it makes me happy, too (sure kept me going whilst repairing my stone chimney today!)!!!

Oooooh! I'd love to reserve a sampler set, please!!!

P.S. Sorry for the threadjack!!

Don't be sorry, BB! I'm perusing their site now--THANKS for the recommendation!!!

As for Elara...I am totally diggin' this. I enjoy tuberose, and Mara does it right for my skin. Elara is all floral at first, and I can detect all three of the blossoms. Then the musk and teak sidle in, and the whole thing melds and gets grownup--definitely the Sophisticated Lady thing! I can't stop snoofing myself. I feel like I'm wearing the Perfect (long) Black Dress, armloads of nice, noisy silver bracelets, dangly earrings, and wearing makeup and all, even though I'm sitting here in my painting clothes! I'm in the early stages of long drydown and I smell sublime. Someone pass me a martini, please...?

ETA...have been wearing this a lot, and I keep forgetting it has a phero! In hindsight, though, I do believe that Magnet gives me selfies that are similar to Audacious, but with a more grownup/powerful feel. This scent with that feeling?!?? WIN. I want a full bottle.

I get the sparkly/tangy, too! I've only worn this once so far, and it was in my mad orgy of testing too many scents at once. Heh. My skin can turn some chocolates into hazmat, but this one comes out yummy, and actually reads as darker chocolate. Wearing Bella Donna on my upper arm, she smells like chocolate orange candies, and it's in a sophisticated way, if that makes sense. I'm thinking it's the white amber that makes her feel like dark chocolate covered orange gels at an upscale party. Quite nommy!
