Eggers Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 Fun stuff! What great labels Mara, as always. I love all the vintage labels you find, but Ms. Norma Jean Baker and Bettie Page? Whoo! And Lobster people??? I'm so excited about these new releases - my first in a few months! I guess that means I'll have to get the sampler. Hee! I'm chomping at the bit for notes, but I know Luna has been busy! (Thank you, Luna! ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpriteLeigh Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 Oh wow!! New releases are here!! They all look fantastic! Â I promise, Summer Crush does not smell like seafood.

quietguy Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 (edited) QG - that one is totally a "you" kind of scent, I think. Â Â I think you'll like it! Â It certainly seems to be my kind of scent and I am sure I will love it. Just the name made me smile. Plus women in bikinis, ughhh. Â On a side note, I saw in the news where the roof of a record store collapsed under the weight of all the vinyl they had stored upstairs. I better keep my collection of scents on the ground floor although I know I have nowhere near the collection you or some of the other ladies have.

StacyK Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 Â Yes, there's only a few groups of images of her that are pub domain. Her likeness and rights of publicity are now pub domain as of 2 years ago, but the photographers still hold copyrights. The available ones are general studio shots that were not renewed, stills from certain movies - as the movies were renewed but not the stills, and pix taken by the federal government...the ones used for the war effort of her as a teen with airplane parts. Very interesting stuff. That's so intresting. I know various parts of her estate were under siege a few times. I have to see the war time "airplane" photos. I knew a photographer many years ago (1990) who was one of a few who photographed her pre MM days. I don't know if he ever released them. Of all the photos I've seen I have not seen those. Even though she looks very different you can still see the Marilyn behind the eyes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since I do not refrain from asking dumb questions--as you all know by now --is that Marylin in both Kissed by the Sun and H2O Oh Oh??? The H2O chick actually reminds me of Shirley Temple as a teenager, but I don't think she would ever have posed so sexy... Â And MARA!!! Are you going to do a Sniffathon at the store for every set of NRs??? Gonna have to bear that in mind, if so... Â Â P.S. I WANT A LOBSTER COSTUME. *gigglesnort* *scuttles off making lobstery pincer-hands* Â ETA: Actually, my younger daughter and I have this thing we do saying "crab crab crab" in Japanese and dancing around like crabs...a lobster costume would sorta slide right in there...

johnsonlisa90012 Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 Today, I almost wish I were a guy because it would be so much easier to shop for FBs from this set of NRs. I want them all. My question is when they do a set and there are 12 (yes 12) new releases, how do they pick 10 for the monthly sampler? I don't think I will get any sleep tonight pondering that mystery.

Wanderlust Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 Quick question regarding the ambrosia: how much patchouli tended to come through in previous batches.

It makes me crazy, but I tend to amp patchouli. I so want to be able to wear this. Well I can only speak for the 2012 batch but honestly I didn't even remember there was patch in it so it must not reveal itself too much. I love patch and am usually quite aware of when it comes out and lingers....also I could be wrong but I don't think Hearts likes patch too much and she loves Ambrosia...so that might be a good sign for you.

Eggers Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 I'd like to know how those lobster people carry stuff too! I can't imagine having to wear that to work! LOL! I can hardly carry a tray as it is... Â EOSP, it's Milo Aukerman, the singer for the Descendents, way back in the 80s. I love this shot of him - so intense! And nice legs!

luna65 Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 On a side note, I saw in the news where the roof of a record store collapsed under the weight of all the vinyl they had stored upstairs.

My question is when they do a set and there are 12 (yes 12) new releases, how do they pick 10 for the monthly sampler? A monthly sampler is usually 10-12 scents, so none are omitted in that case. it's only when it's a bigger set that it happens. Â And for my last dumb question... Oh, Luuuunnnnaaaa!!!

I had no idea what "lobster babes" was but I did envision retro posters so it all made sense in the end. I'm really curious about the scent. Is it aquatic or a popular drink the lobster babes would have served . How did they wait tables in those costumes?

tyvey Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 (edited) Summer Crush is obviously lobster roll (lobster, a buttered roll, a shake of old bay. and coleslaw) plus corn on the cob Edited June 30, 2015 by tyvey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StacyK Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 Summer Crush is obviously lobster roll (lobster, a buttered roll, a shake of old bay. and coleslaw) plus corn on the cob It's an indoor refrigerated scent only. Don't wear out in the heat. Now I'm hungry for seafood. Â I can't imagine how hot those ladies were in the summer Atlantic City heat. Maybe it's Lobster Babe sweat?

I am not usually one for relying on the internet for information which I consider valid, but this morning I was looking up Hedione to find out a little more about it...I came across this article which had some intruiging info on how it relates to pheromones...(moderators-if you find this article has incorrect information and need to delete the link, please do so..)

I hadn't even checked to see if there was a thread about it... Can the potions with Hedione be boosted just the same?
