  1. Haha! It's 10:50AM here... ok I got a bit of a sleep in But really it's only 9:50 in my head, daylight savings just says otherwise
  2. Ok, all these reviews on Sneaky Clean are making me think this is the one for me to wear today. I have a trial vial already but a bottle is on the way so I can slather on the trial vial with guilt-free abandon!!
  3. Oh my.... Chrissy, that is a MASSIVE order!! I too have ordered Cherry Rose, I can't wait for it to arrive... but boosting it with Treasured Hearts is a neat idea!
  4. This can be a VERY good thing for those of us that think they have missed out on something - it's like getting a second chance :)
  5. I gave a small spray sample of this to a friend of mine and she loves the lavender smell. She says a few sprays on her pillow helps her sleep on nights when she gets insomnia.
  6. I just checked out of curiosity and the cart is back up to 8 bottles!! Mara is toying with us!
  7. Well the berry settles down and the jasmine comes out softly towards the end. I like it in all its incarnations, to me it's just a little bit more foody than a straight pink sugar scent. I'm going to give it a wear tomorrow
  8. This may sound obvious, but this seriously smells like sugar. The granular sweetness has been encapsulated so well, it's amazing. I love the fluffiness and lightness and just sheer deliciousness of this. It really would layer so well with so many things.
  9. lol I went with True Confessions! TC has been a bit unloved in my arsenal, I thought I should give myself motivation to test it out. So now I have a spray A Lick of Pink with True Confessions. I think I'll call it.... Truly Licked ETA: Wow, the berries certainly come out at first in this form! I'm interested to see how it morphs!
  10. I have UNs of both of them! Maybe I should give them a try... on the other hand, I boost so many things with those two already, maybe I should pull out one of the UNs I don't use very often instead...
  11. This one isn't great on me. The resins and sandalwood are just not nice to my nose, and it goes very perfumey. It's actually making me want to sneeze. I will say for it though, it is a very strong scent - even a little is quite powerful!

    Pillow Stuffing

    My first impression of this smell is I didn't like it - the lavender made it smell a bit cheap air freshener to me. But I like the way it has melded on my skin, and something in it is reminding me of a nice male cologne smell. I will need to wear this for intent I think - I'm having trouble determining if this is relaxing me or if it's the apple schnapps I'm sipping on!!

    Demimondaine

    At first when I put this on I just get hit with the cocoa. It is very powdery, like smelling actual cocoa powder in the tin. I hope as it dries down the violet will come out more, as I don't like smelling chocolate on my skin.
  14. This one is going right into my arsenal along with my other pinky scents. It is the pink sugar smell so many of us adore, with a bit more of a citrusy note to it, possibly from the berries, and a very subtle floral underneath it. In the oil form it is quite similar to Pink Sugar, and I wonder how it would fare if I made it up into a spray. I'm tempted to try it out - now what phero blend should I pair it with? Hmmm...
  15. I too am trying to save for phero month. But I am eyeing off those body lotions and soaps pretty closely...
  16. Browsing the archive is just dangerous for me - I see too many things I want!!
  17. That's so sweet I adore love stories like that...
  18. Hells yes... just see my journal for plenty of evidence to support that hypothesis...
  19. How interesting. I'm also very sensitive to caffeine and such stimulants. Even black tea is too much caffeine for me. I just figured I was sensitive all around, to both chemicals and emotions (which is really just chemicals...)
  20. Oh Calii, what has happened to your avi? I can't see it!!
  21. So... turns out I posted this in the wrong area This is the review I wrote for orchid musk... but it was actually exotic musk I was smelling... I should have paid more attention to the label!! Of the three musks I've tried (Exotic, BodaciouS, and Vintage) I think I like this one least... that being said it's still a very close tie. This one is just a little more flowery and sweeter, but for some reason I don't like it as much - it detracts from the original character of the musk for me. Still digging it though. I've also mixed this in with an unscented sorbolene base lotion and it's lovely. Very sweet and subtle. When I want a bigger hit of musk I reach for my BodaciouS or Vintage.
  22. EWWW. My flatmate used to do that with her cat and I HATED it. It was just like... there is a litter tray right there, ok it's been used already but come on, you couldn't just reuse it?! Cats are funny that way. But it sounds as though he is willing to try, with the telephoning and making a suggestion to fix things (reposting the chore chart), which is a good sign. Now it's just a case of harnessing that desire in the best possible way.... and rewarding him when he gets it right
  23. Oh... sorry but I read this and something in my head screams "No!!" Please understand, I mean this in the friendliest way and only trying to help... I'm not a relationship expert and certainly not an expert on your relationship, so please ignore me if I'm way off the mark here, but somehow I feel that trying to make him feel/understand that you are hurt and resentful is only going to make him feel either guilty or defensive or both. We all want our emotions to be validated, that's only natural, but trying to force your annoyance onto him may come across only as you being insistent on making him admit that he is substandard in some way... something none of us like to do. Men can be very proud and their egos easily damaged, and often this brings out the opposite outcome to what you're going for. If it were me I would focus on the behaviour itself and ways to solve the problem, not risk sending the message that you feel less attracted to him and find him less of a man because he is flawed as a person, as that is how it may be interpreted. (Then again, given my history of screwing up relationships, perhaps I'm not the best person to be giving advice on this... ) Edit: To clarify. I'm not suggesting you shouldn't express your emotions to him... just try to make it about "his behaviour" not "him". Take away the blame/forcing him to admit wrong part of the wording. "I feel snowed under because there is a lot of work to do and I feel I'm not getting enough help" rather than "you're lazy and don't help me enough".
