  1. Had to try this first and yes, I love Luna's characterization-- this is all the mocha I will ever need! I love coffee scents so much and they often go wonky on me but this is HEAVEN. It's dark, warm, purring chewy textured coffee with a whisper of chocolate to keep it from turning bitter... I'm loving it solo but I bet it would also he a great layering note. Reminds me of my beloved Titillating Temptress which is highest praise. Love it!
  2. OMG the LP Box of Everything is here! I've never had such a big order before.... I am trying to figure out if I can make myself open just a few things at a time but it all looks so wonderful, especially the Magical Boxes (which are the loveliest bags) of Mystery!!!
  3. Omg just my shipping notice for sale order! I am a little worried about how to handle signature now that I'm in new town and not convenient to post office, but I'm sure it will all work out!
  4. Apparently I am making up for the last two years and ordering the store... Occos Mocha, Creamy Almond, Lemon Buttercream, Lavender Buttercream, Raspberry Rhapsody full bottle set now of all Chakras with backup bottle of Heart Gargoyle Gargle Butterscream Lemon Cougar Potion Panther Madeline's Hot Memphis Nights Hauntings spray boosted with CB (soooo sad no Gotcha! but ah well) Undercover Lover spray Fairy Cakes -- oatmeal, pumpkin, lavender, lemon, rose, strawberry and my mystery boxes, over which I am quite frankly losing my mind with excited anticipation -- a Black Cat box and two spells It's good to be back!!!!
  5. So I've reached Sinfully Indulgent Which, given my sale extravaganza, seems just about right
  6. Yes, I have to go back to my stash and see if I have any unscented left. This is my all time favorite; I look forward to its return!
  7. Sigh. Could I also get Lani's Heavenly Lei? I am a sucker for ozone and sea weed!
  8. Thank you!!!!! I'll email for invoice later today, just need to check and see if I will be adding anything to it. OMG a Cat's Eye reboot!!!! Happy birthday to me.
  9. OMG -- Mara is Ruthvah a masculine blend? Because when I read previously appeared as "Cat's Eye" I can only say PLEASE RESERVE ONE FOR ME!!!
  10. Oh my gosh are we time traveling?? They all look gorgeous. And a PM blend!!! So excited for notes.

    Damn it! I held off from trying because I knew it wouldn't work for me... strawberry and pumpkin? Mulberry and allspice? But oh, right, Mara is a fricking genius and this might be my favorite-- it's so yummy and warm and festive and stealth sexy! I want to snorfle my wrist all night long.
  12. I can't get over how non-foody the velvet pumpkins are!!! This is haunting -- I get a whisper of coolness that reminds me a bit of Hauntings, and then the whiteness really announces itself. The pumpkin musk thing is totally happening, and while I can pick up the spiciness JLisa mentions, it isn't cozy or yummy at all, but deeply sophisticated. I have this one on my left wrist and Black Velvet on my right. Amazing!
  13. I am really surprised -- when I read this description and saw "mash-up between Blue Smoke and Cuddle Bunny" my eyes almost started out of my head because I am a huge fan of both... but that is why we get the sampler! I've tried this twice now and it just doesn't go with my skin. I don't get the blueberry at all (and I know it's my skin and not the scent because of Eastwood's review) -- it's like Smarties smashed into powdered form and rubbed onto my wrist. I am secretly relieved to have at least one thing to check off the full bottle list. Glad to have my sample so I can enjoy the adorable label!
  14. I love this -- the grapefruit/currant combo is reminiscent of my Big Cat Mojo, but while that has a kind of dryer veldt-like quality this one is so surprisingly rich, as others have commented. I wanted to love original Cougar Potion but something in it was headache inducing -- this is amazingly smooth. In many ways it reminds of Glamour Puss (the first one) but with a simpler, starker, and darker feel. I don't have anything boosted with Cougar, and this is seriously tempting.
  15. Oooh, Beccah, you nailed it! I hadn't made that connection but yes -- I tried LP Black a couple of times over the years and it always regretfully doesn't quite work. This is pure sexy darkness -- sophisticated and badass at the same time. And hi, StacyK! Yep this feels like you.
  16. Keep meaning to come rave about this one.... somehow I didn't think I needed it, but it is so delicious. It is like the lemon version of Inspire Desire, which is an all time favorite, but unlike that this has enormous staying power on me! Normally the delicious citrus foodies are glorious for the immediate application but on drydown they get wispy or turn a bit sour. This just stays mouth wateringly delicious for hours and hours! Out of all the samples, I have reapplied this one the most frequently. It is the perfect balance of sweet and tart, and I should say it also differs from Inspire Desire in that ID is cakey, and this is pure frosting. Yum!
  17. Caved over the long drydown and ordered a bottle. Holy wow, this stuff is amazing. And that's right, Resin Ho!!!!! Can't wait for your reviews on this one!
  18. Dolly, I'm remembering Decadent Diva (spacing on the name of your PE that inspired that, sorry) and whoa, lady, this was probably made with you in mind!
  19. I still have a few drops left in my bottle... gonna go and sniff now because this remains in my top ten fall scents of all time!
  20. Oh ye gods and goddesses! This is THE non-foody coffee scent to die for! Vetiver, frankincense and myrrh makes a stunning base, and the smoke adds a tinge of cold autumn air. The pumpkin is very subtle on me, and maple (which can amp like crazy) is totally subdued and just gracing the whole thing with some faint faint whisper of sweetness that never quite makes it to the surface (which is wonderful for me, since sweet foodie can turn on me very quickly these days). This one could totally be unisex. This one reminds me of my beloved Black Cat Mojo.
  21. First of all, Luna, that story is so full of win! This was hard not to go full bottle on -- rare ingredients, resins -- but I am so trying to confront the hoard and start using things up that I made myself stick to sampler. This is stunning. It reminds me of Bewitching Hour, but that scent is full of late afternoon sunlight and this one is so Of the Night I can't begin to describe it well. The herbs and resins somehow temper each other in perfect balance and the apple ( which is clearly from the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil), while a dominant note, doesn't read fruity or foodie. It's much more serious than that. This is a grown-up scent but not ladylike in the least. Complex, sophisticated, deeply female and oh yeah, also pure sexual power. If you are looking for a Sexpionage scent, jump on this.
  22. I get mine Monday -- off to read your reviews and go a little crazy with anticipation!!!!!
  23. Sampler ordered. I really need this one in my life right now.
  24. OMG these are looking amazing!!!!!!!!!!! I have a sad sense my no-buy may be going on hiatus again...... So gorgeous and I'm so glad to have notes to look forward to!!
