This has patchouli in it? I guess I didn't know that. It's not listed as one of the ingredients. Usually I amp patch in an unpleasant way, but I've never had that happen when I've worn this one.

My first trial did not go well. All I got was a big punch of sandalwood. You coul have said any other note was in there and I would not have detected it. I eventually washed it offf after ten minutes. Yesterday I decided to give it another go. I remembered that I had a hard time with La Sylphide at first because of the sandalwood. Now I love that one so much. So glad I gave it another whirl. I still get sandalwood but I can pick up sweetness, light pink berry, and coconut that hugs the edges. This went from I think I'll pass to I think I need a FB!

This is not my typical scent but I am really liking it. I get the rose vibe, especially at first. And while roses are not my thing at all, this is quite huffable. It deepens and develops into a sexy floral wine-like scent. It smells complex and I am enjoying trying to pick out a single scent. Which I can't yet besides possibly the currant? Possible full bottle for me.

Thank goodness Mara! At first I was wondering if it got in my box by mistake. Then I did as you said and googled it. I am moved and I am in. Thank you for continuing to enlighten my world.

I'm joining the party on this one because I got my notice today too! And I am less than two hours away from Mara-land so I'll be swimming in new samplers soon!

I really like LP red, but the cinnamon can get too strong on me sometimes and it can also come off a bit dry. LP Rouge on the other hand plays so much nicer on my skin and I can pick out the other notes better too. Any honey or sweetness comes off as golden. And LFM is the perfect phero match. This will be an interesting one to age. I'm thinking about getting a bottle just to tuck away from use and see how it morphs over time. Awesome job Mara!

I planned on sitting this one out so I could save up for sale. Ended up getting a sampler set and kicking myself for not ordering as soon as pics went up. Come on Lady V and get those samples in so you can terrorize away!

Yay!! I got my shipping notice for NR samplers last night. Reading all the reviews has got me anticipating my package something fierce!

After much deliberation, I went with sampler set for now. I sooo wanted to go FB set because they all sound divine and the artwork is simply beautiful. Can't wait for reviews to start pouring in!

See, I'm nervous about the maple, since I amp maple like crazy. But all the other notes are intriguing and I LOVE strawberry and lemon. When I think of lemon poundcake I don't really think of maple so maybe it will be a background note.

WOW!! This caught me by surprise too! Those labels are gorgeous. This feels epic!

I hope so too!

I ended up getting this in oil but plan on taking about half of it and converting to a spray. I bought a big bottle of perfumers alcohol last year and just ordered a couple of atomizers. I think this would be great with a swipe of oil and one walk through spray.

I ordered a FB after I used my sampler up in a few days. I love, love this and the dry down is heavenly. I'm already starting to think I should have bought 2 bottles.

I have been loving Vivid Violet, especially after aging a bit so I bought fb of that. Plus fbs of New and Totem:Lamb w/ PP.

Yeah, I think this one is my favorite of the new releases. At least it is so far. Each note is soft but present. The floral and green aspects are perfectly balanced with a lacing of sweetness and just a pinch of soft oakmoss. I love oakmoss, but it is faintly there as a background balancer. And the drydown is so sweet and innocent. I haven't had much luck with Popularity Potion before. I am willing to try to figure it out some more though. Maybe it is a good thing that PP is in this blend to prevent me from dousing myself with too much. So far that has always appeared to be my problem with PP. I must be wearing too much when I have tried before because this phero is the only one I have ever routinely ghosted people on. Or maybe they ghost me? Not sure of the order of this, but the end result is I'm a ghost.

So many awesome scents! How would ordering a full bottle set work for these two months?

This is so, so good. I mean the roll eyes back and take a deep inhale good. It is warm raisin bread right out of the oven with a drizzle of melted butter and dash of sugar. Or possibly spicy oatmeal raisin cookies with a buttermilk cream frosting. I in love with the goat! Eta: after wearing a bit longer I get much more of yeasty bread note which is good but not at all leaning toward cookie type sweet. Still yummy and cozy.

OMG my April and May samplers came today! I haven't even opened yet because the packaging is too cute! Thanks Mara and team! Now I'm off to go smell some LPs. Yippee!

Good catch tanya27! The addition of licorice root makes me even more eager to sample this one!

I ordered both sampler sets when the labels went up. I can't wait now to try them. I have been working on a PE for the past month that has sweetgrass and now something like 3 of the NRs have it listed. So cool!!

Oh yay! I was hoping the sweet faced kanga would be boosted with MLH. As soon as I looked at those eyes, I knew that was the phero I would want with it. That's awesome that Mara and Luna beat me to it.

The Kangaroo one is darling! If that one is phero'd, my guess would be Mother's Little Helper. She just has that look to me.

Easy decision. Sampler sets for April and May have been ordered. I'm also going to start fleshing out a few PEs I have been thinking about. I'll wait until I get the NRs though and order PEs along with another must have bottles from April/May. Fun, fun, fun!!!
