Mmmmmm Alcide....nom nom nom...

I wore this yesterday, just slathered with abandon and oh my goodness it is so wonderful! I can't believe I waited so long to try it! I get a good bit of pineapple & coconut with the bamboo & vanilla & musk rounding it out to perfection. It is so sexy & sultry! Perfect for summer. FB yes!

Dang, y'all! I was so confident with my decision to not order this one! Drat!

I really like this one. It's very gourmand on me, yummy! It has a warmth, creaminess and sweetness that is truly delish! It reminds me of a pumpkin scent (probably the ginger) without the pumpkin!

I get more of the sugar, grapefruit and champagne and it is such a pick-me-up! It is a cheerful scent that has good lasting power. I love wearing it on rainy days....AND sunny days. I wore it a lot in the spring as it has that kind of feel to it.

I tried this one again and didn't experience any of the pokiness I had the first time I tried it. It was so lovely, soft and feminine. Still doesn't feel like me, but I will definitely enjoy my sample

I love this when it's wet. I get some Dill, and Eucalyptus, it's really well balanced. I tend to really like unisex scents! When this dries down though, it's a bit too soapy for me..... although it IS extremely fresh, and I feel cleaner when I wear it.

This is most def my favorite LP so far! On me I don't get too much resin action, it's more dark vanilla, creamy sweatness and a touch of patchouli.... it is so so so so so amazingly yummy and I get complimented CONSTANTLY on how good I smell by total strangers even. It has awesome lasting power....I love how it lingers on my honey's sheets after an evening together!

I absolutely love this. It reminds me of a creamy linden blossom concotion (linden being one of my very favorite EO's of ALL time). So it's a straight up winner for me and I want to buy all the bottles! I don't get the peppercorns or anything sharp. It's just smooth linden-y gorgeousness with perfect creaminess underneath.

Yurp, the Ambrosia craze got me too. I have 2 bottles of it and 1 or LP Black on the way. My next order will be huge methinks. I'm skeered!!!

Damn this is the good stuff, fo realz!!! Sniffing from the vial I wasn't excited, but omgoodness it is sooooooooo good!!! I can only smell the raspberry and lavender if I really really try because it all blends so beautifully together. I get the perfect amount of pumkin and spice and vanilla with the background of yum just chillin'. I LOVE it!

I'm having a similar experience with this one. The pokey sharpness is really too much until about 45 minutes after application. Then it's a very soft, barey there, LOVELY sparkly pink fruity musk. I will have to try it again in a week when my skin chemistry is back to normalish. I can't help but think of what trouble I'm in though because it's almost the top of the month already! I still have a few Bohemian Cats samples that I haven't opened and several from this month as well. Luckily, only 1 from this lot has been a must have so far..... now if I could just have my paycheck wired directly to Mara......

Thank you for all of this, Mara. I trust both you and Dr. Stone completely!

It's like anything when it comes to our kids, religion, politics, or anything that we tend to be passionate about. In order to be mature, evolved women we must consider and value all points of view. This is my opinion anyway. Hehe. We must also allow ourselves to change our minds abount anything that suits our fancies....when it feels right. I'm hoping others will chime in and give us a grand buffet of experience to consider! And Lor, you rock, woman.

It's interesting that you say this, Lor, because I leaned that way as well until I came here and saw blends made that seemed to be ok for kids to be exposed to. I'm glad to have this input, so thank you very much for sharing your experience and perspective. I had read years ago about None being a nightmare for kids and made sure I never exposed my daughter to my potions that contained it. My daughter has been around when my cops are drying and she'll say "Mom I can smell your perfume and it stinks!" LOLOL!!!
