sultry brunette Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 This custom that I had done is fantastic! The grapefruit is of the pink variety and is juicy sweet when wet. It dries to a yummy more subtle grapefruit, fresh and not the typical cloying version of grapefruit. More like a dry citrus. It is blended with a slightly woodier cinnamon that is dry, but not crisp. It is more of an aged cinnamon. The sugar is also pink. For those pink scent lovers, this is a wonderfully warm pink scent. This is a bright pink pick-me-up, yet warm and comforting all wrapped into one. I asked for a fresh cut grapefruit sprinkled with cinnamon and a pink sugar to complete the morning breakfast dish. This was the perfect blend. Well done ladies! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curiouschic Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 Oh WOW this sounds sooo up my alley! I hope I get me a sniffee, BUT I figure I will have to snatch up a full bottle if it comes available. Have you amped it at all? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sultry brunette Posted June 17, 2009 Author Share Posted June 17, 2009 no ampage. i bought one of each of the new pheros and plan on combining with the right phero as the mood requires. I must say that it blends fantastically with the Pink Amber, Spicy Brown Sugar and Sandalwood & Resins scents in the LAM/BAM bottles. I tested it with the Pink Amber LAM and the other two in BAM and it was fantastic. I am typically not a honey person and was debating on giving Jo Anna my regular LAM, but this scent blends very nicely with it. It keeps the honey from turning on me when I apply this over the wet LAM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j5382001 Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 This one sounds yummy.... I love cinnamon and sugar blends but the grapefruit seems like it will give it a special touch... Sounds like a very lovely blend indeed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The LAM original IMO works very nicely with mixing with other scents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curiouschic Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 Oh lovely SB! I got to try this goodie!!! The sweet Djac sent me a lil tester of it. Funny thing is when it dries down I got a reminder of another scent... Ironically enough it made me think of Yin Ylang. I had to find the bottle that I had of yin Ylang for comparison... Crazy enough it was be the small addition of grapefruit in Yin Ylang or something...not sure Anyways, this is very nice. I get a lot of grapefruit at first, but like you said as it dries down in settles. Next the cinnamon comes to the forefront and is quite strong. It actually tickles my nosewhen I smell it This is a nice scent, a very interesting mix. nice one SB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have another tiny sample of this and though it is very pretty and I soooo wanted to try this one and like it cause I do like pink grapefruit...the cinnamon doesn't react well with my skin in this one. Boo hoo! but I will hold this off to the side and the next time we do a trade... which I anticipate soon, with all this new stuff coming and the big massive sale...oh yeah, anyway I will send this to you okay...no charge! just cause you love it. be blessed - djac Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luna65 Posted July 13, 2009 Share Posted July 13, 2009 I received a sniffee of this one and it's great! I enjoy how the warmth of the cinnamon melds with the tangyness of the grapefruit and the sweetness of the sugar...you can sense each note but together they create a delicious aura. I think it's something you could wear any time of year...very nicely done! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxine of Arc Posted July 19, 2009 Share Posted July 19, 2009 I reeeeeally like this one. I'm usually not much for pink scents, but this is one of my favorite breakfasts too. The cinnamon really helps round out the pinkness into a deliciously edible scent. It lies close to the skin, but is something I could easily see myself reapplying all day.

Madison Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 I'm not sure why I didn't put up a review of this one. It was my favorite out of all the sniffies I tried. I don't remember what it smelled like, but I used it all so it must have been really good I might get a bottle if there are any left! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tyvey Posted March 20, 2010 Share Posted March 20, 2010 LOVE! The grapefruit is not AT ALL citrusy-tart-bright. It is warm and juicy and nommy, so deep it is almost creamy-feeling (in "texture",not actual smell). The combination is genius. Vats, please.

perfumesniffer Posted May 19, 2010 Share Posted May 19, 2010 Delicious - warm, sweet, tart in just the right proportions. Almost incense-y once dry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tyvey Posted May 19, 2010 Share Posted May 19, 2010 Isn't it FABULOUS? One of my very faves. I hoard it like Scrooge McDuck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
