  1. Wait I didn't review this in the thread???? This is one of my favorite PEs ever. It's not a "me" scent but I wanted it to help bring out some of the qualities I'm trying to develop -- namely the ability to play and revel in the moment. Normally I am not one for powdery but this is such delicious powder. It's got veins of pink and lilac (colors not scent notes) running through it and on me the florals are absolutely the lens through which the "cat sex game" (I will love that phrase forever Luna!) peeks out and plays. I am really enjoying this one for summer evenings.
  2. ok Stacy, you've got me frantically combing through my stash to find this now! I'll report results when I do. :-)
  3. BB -- I don't know how I skipped past the notes for Mama Bear but all I can say is WOW! It sounds like an amazing combo!
  4. You guys -- fans of classic/vintage scents will love both the Kittens! They are love potions meant to encourage a spirit of playful adventure (I sent Mara the video for Lana Del Rey's "Love" to let her know what I was looking for and she NAILED it!). Love Kitten is a wild natural floral bouquet that then dries down into a deeply evocative scent. Sultry goes on with an almost grassy scent -- not like fresh cut grass but long sweetgrass? and then moves into classic LP sexpot honey madness. They are both scrumptious! ETA: I was already intrigued by Memphis because look! another kitty label! but the notes.... holy wow!
  5. Oooooh, they all look gorgeous and delish!! I can't wait to find out what's in everything.... and lookit those rebrews! SeaJam! {waves madly} Hope you like the kittens -- I think Mara outdid herself with both. As usual.
  6. Check out the PE thread when it goes up.... I asked Mara to whip up a little something based in part on Lana Del Rey's song/video "Love" and, as per usual, MAGIC ensued!
  7. OMG the gorgeousness! Label art is astonishing and I'm swooning over what names suggest. Yay for note and description stalking!
  8. Mara! I had no idea these had already shipped -- such wonderful timing to find magic potions in the mailbox when I am just about to finish the academic year and start my month long vacation! Thank you, thank you, thank you -- especially for finding two takes on my idea! I can't wait to slather and enjoy. :kiss43: ETA: OMG OMG OMG just did the first slather with Love Kitten.... this is perfection! How on earth did you nail it so beautifully! Scent is gorgeous and I can feel the energy rolling off it -- just as I described, and just as Lana sang. I'm gonna have to wait to try out the "Sultry" version, this is so amazing!!!!!!
  9. Oh, Mara, so sorry you are having to deal with this!
  10. Dearest Mara, I could not wait and did a pre-birthday slather last night of Big Cat Mojo. OH MY GOD. It's magic. Perfection. The cocoa butter/sandalwood is so creamy, warm, luxe. The saffron does exactly what Luna describes (beautifully, as she always does!) -- hot dry dusty evocation that adds some wildness and earthiness in a way that wonderfully subverts the elegance and beauty of the other notes. And the grapefruit/black currant combo -- WOW! You are right, they balance each other perfectly and seem to come out in the drydown more, with a tart juicy finish that takes the whole thing from faboo straight to the stratosphere. Sun-drenched, sensuous, sexual and sacred indeed! Thank you so much for your magic -- this is just what I wanted.
  11. Oh my goodnesss, Mara, I'm sooo excited! (Also, just looked up currant in the Magickal Ingredient Lore page and wow! Perfect on that front too!) Thanks for the kind words, tink! And hey there Seaj!!!
  12. Thank you! I can't believe I forgot to post.... this is from my email to her on this one: I have a birthday coming up and it feels numerically powerful -- 49, so 7 x 7! Also going through big transformation stuff inside and out. My Black Cat Mojo has always held such a special place in my heart, and I'm looking for more of that Cat Who Walks By Herself prowly magic. :-) And so is born.... Jennifer's Big Cat Mojo! Notes that keep coming to me are: Grapefruit Cocoa Butter Sandalwood -- if possible, of the Gypsi Moon Bohemian Beauty variety? And.... Saffron? First three notes I'm sure of, but if you have a better idea for the 4th, please substitute/add as you see fit (I had copal floating in and out there for a while...). I'm thinking something sun-drenched, sensuous, sexual and sacred. For summer. Congruent with Cuddle Bunny which for me is my female power pheromone. I need to stretch and prowl and amuse myself when the weather warms up. So.... I have a pretty good sense of what's coming but wildly curious to hear if she switched out the 4th note.... I am also waiting until Thursday to actually slather it on. :-) Also DYING to know what's in everyone else's! JLisa, so touched you are interested! Your Madame President has become a staple for me...
  13. I can't believe but Big Cat Mojo is in the house!!! I'm sitting on my hands to wait and test it on Thursday, as it is my birthday present to myself. But I couldn't help sniffing at it and I'm getting verrrrrrrry excited.... can't wait for notes!
  14. Party looks amazing and OMG the notes!!!!!!!!!! Sunshine of Your Love has me enthralled. Need to dig in and review everything most carefully but wow! What a collection!
  15. OMG OMG OMG OMG!!!! :cat690: :cat690: Egg Collection is brilliant! I am seeing so many evocative names and some of my favorite pheros making an appearance.... woot, Blue Rose, are you kidding me! And Cacao D'Amor, Petals of Silk..... can't wait for notes and magical scribing! And my PE label is PERFECTION!!! I am so excited for this -- I completely understand why PEs needed to be on hiatus with all the rush of Christmas and Pherotine but oh my! I've been sitting on this one a while and I can't believe it's actually going to be here! ETA: Also dying to know what the final decision was on notes!!!!!! ETA II: I sense you may be getting a request for me to change my avi pic to that fantastic Snow Leopard....
  16. Wait, how'd I miss this???????? Happy Dance at Black Cat Cottage....... and tomorrow is payday!!!!!! ETA: Yep, ordered!
  17. Holy gods and goddesses! So we are currently experiencing Snowpocalyse here (albeit in a small scale Vermont way) and my institution closed this afternoon and sent everybody home. To celebrate, I decided to break out the Coconut Pineapple bath salts. I can't describe how utterly luxe and delicious these are. I used very sparingly (a jar will last quite a while I think) and got a cloud of gorgeous pina colada scent. Some of the salt crystals are giant and take ages to melt. The goat's milk and cocoa butter make it creamy silk and the whole thing is utterly transporting. Realistically I knew I was in my mom's windowless tiny bathroom with a blizzard raging outside and burying my car in icy snow (to be dug out tomorrow morning) but I closed my eyes and floated in a tropical lagoon, with sun baking my skin and a warm breeze caressing my body. I stayed in the tub until the water was so chilly I had to get out. And no slick or mess in the tub after! It looked cleaner than when I got in, lol. Anyway, these are divinely inspired and quite awesome. I didn't put any body butter or anything on when I got out because my skin is silky and soft and smells of wondrous things. I went down and gave my mom her jar, telling her there would never be a better day than today to experience these, and she sniffed, swooned, and agreed.
  18. I lost my head and added a bottle of this in oil to my bath salts order...... SO GLAD. This is heavenly. The loveliest vanilla I have ever smelled, and the almond is more prominent in the oil than I perceive it to be in any of the other forms (um, I have bath salts, whipped bath soap, and solid! yeah, lost my mind a little with this one!). Overall though this has a complexity that reminds me of Glamour Puss, one of my all time faves -- so beautifully blended that individual notes swirl and coalesce into something I have never smelled before, yet I recognize. Hats off to Mara. This is love in a bottle, an aphrodisiac indeed. I am sniffing my slathered wrists and feeling transported. So perfect for spring, and since we are on the eve of the heaviest storm of the winter, somehow it feels especially fitting. Just sad that there are no more bottles because I would love a back up or two -- and yet, I intend to simply slather away and use this up. It makes me feel reckless and confident that as soon as it's gone another heavenly Mara potion will appear.
  19. And once again..... Plus the summer in a jar bath salts!
  20. Is it sad that I spent all morning at work daydreaming about getting home at lunch to open my personal computer and stare longingly at the bath salts pictures and imagine the happy day when they shall be mine?
  21. I may ordered All the Bath Salts. Plus caved and grabbed Aphrodisia in oil... so gorgeous and perfect to welcome in spring!
  22. So true! I know.... along with NRs..... and the bath stuff..... lol, not enough time, money or body parts on which to use all that I would like to! Oh, no, Lisa, revel in your find! I remember the first time Mara did one of these Etsy updates and I snagged Lisa's Lady Lavender and Victoria's Buttercream Rose, both of which had sold out super fast as PEs.... it's all part of the joy and glory and the wild ride that is LP! :-)
  23. Welcome, samalam, so glad to hear that you are starting your collection and excited about the journey! Sounds like you a pile of fun stuff to try!
  24. OMG, would it be possible for me to get 2 of the bath salts? Also -- Mara, are the Aphrodisia bath salts sold out?
