  1. If it's any consolation Chrissy I have LAM Pink Amber in spray and it is pretty close. Not the same of course, but enough to satiate my Purple Puff needs
  2. I too have learnt that that is often the case... some of these sell out FAST!

    Baskery

    That's good to know... but all the same, almonds and hazelnuts are supposed to be the nuts I am MOST allergic too (apparently there are different degrees... for example, peanuts I am only slightly allergic to - they may just make me feel a bit sick. Almonds and hazelnuts will just about send me to the hospital). So I might not take the chance on this one. There are plenty of other nommy smelling cakey lovelies for me to enjoy
  4. OCCO Ambrosia just works with EVERYTHING! Well, everything with a bit of fruit in it anyway
  5. You live across the road from a llama? That's not a nice thing to say about your neighbours
  6. I just love the little silver flakes floating around in this! I've been sitting here playing with them in the vial. I know, small things right, lol. But seriously, something about the metallic twang of this in the bottle is just tickling my palate nicely right now. On my skin it softens into something I can't quite describe - not floral, not perfumey, but heading in the direction. Very subtle. Enhanced skin. I hope I'm making sense.
  7. Hmm.... I feel bad posting a review about a scent and saying nothing good at all about it, but I just don't like this... not in the bottle, not on my skin, not after drydown. It starts out smelling sharp, like citrusy in a bad way. Then something that comes out as menthol on me emerges, and it just gets stronger. At drydown it's just faint menthol again. I searched for the other notes and I just can't find them. I don't think it's a time of month thing as other perfumes are smelling fine on me. Well it is always interesting to learn what DOES work for you, as well as what DOESN'T!
  8. I can't believe I forgot to review this one! It is a lovely sweet floral, yet it is deep and dark as well. Is this the oakmoss? It is very well rounded and balanced, the sweet with the dark, grounding element. After a few minutes on my skin it changes character and goes a bit like play-doh on me, but in a good way. Oh, like a nice smelling candle!
  9. This was NOT what I was expecting from this one at all! I thought it would be tropical fruits and "outdoors" smelling. But it is all musk and honey, a very indoors, sultry smell. Sadly one of the notes is amping madly on me, maybe it is the musk? And giving the whole thing a bit of a nauseating quality.

    This is total nomminess, but I'm really saddened to learn it has almond milk in it. I couldn't even pick it on smelling, just cake and biscuity goodness, but I'll have to trade it away anyway
  11. This is a surprise favourite. I love the scent - sweet, almost floral greens, a little bit perfumey but in a very nice way. Instant happy. Going to get a full bottle of this. In spray.

    Plum Dandy

    This smells like a blackberry cough lozenge, like the ones Soothers do. It goes slightly menthol/minty and medicinal on me. Is there mint in this?
  13. I just don't understand this one at all! I wouldn't have picked lavender if not for the name. It reminded me in the bottle and at first on my skin of licorice. Then on my skin it becomes a sweet floral, maybe similar to violets. I don't smell lavender at all. Given this is old, perhaps it has just aged in this way? I normally don't like lavender but I am digging this one!

    Summer Belle

    This is very melon, but unlike a melon like Shelly B's Bodacious Bomb it is extremely sweet. Almost cloyingly so - almost, but not quite. It is sweet and delicious and fruity, and the melon just comes out the right amount.
  15. This is actually quite nice in the bottle - very sweet and a bit musky, a nice skin scent. But after a while on my skin the sugar disappears and it is just the ugly side of amber. Now I remember why I don't like amber - it just drowns out everything else on me.
  16. Sunshine Sorceress! I love it! And congrats!
  17. Recently I've found myself reaching for sprays more than oils because it's so cold here that I really have nothing but my face and fingertips exposed, so the oil just doesn't get through all the layers of clothing. Plus I've found that I get less skin reactions/rashes if I spray something in the air and let it fall over me and my clothes evenly than I do rubbing oil in. I'm slowly converting a lot of my oils into sprays, and starting to order more things as sprays as long as they are not cops heavy.
  18. This is such a shame. I get no honey or chocolate or vanilla or marshmallow. Just smoke and a slightly bitter smell And then after about twenty minutes it is all gone but something that vaguely reminds me of coffee...
  19. I'm wearing Vintage Musk and my kitty didn't screw up her nose when I let her smell it, which she usually does with my perfumes - in fact she wanted to take a good long whiff with this one - and now she is sitting here purring a million miles an hour
  20. Yay I'm a Woozy Floozy! And got me a picture to match
  21. I must admit, this is one I like the smell of more and more whenever I wear it. I am loving the fresh, almost citrusy nature of it at the moment. Keep catching delicious whiffs.
  22. Oooh, CMN in a SPRAY! I have GOT to try that when my order arrives!
  23. So - it was a Private Edition then? At least initially?
