starlitegirl Posted August 26, 2009 Author Share Posted August 26, 2009 I am also restraining. I want to stock up on blushing Milmaid cuz I LOVE it! But I have decide to take a gouge to my financial situation so I cant justify ordering LPs We will see how time effects this situation... That's what I've done... grab oodles of the ones I LOVE. They always come first. M&D&J must laugh when they fill my orders for 3, 4, or 5 bottles of one scent. But when you love it, and you know you'll wear it a lot, odds are you'll fly right through it.

mountainwitch Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 When I'd revisited the description of Tahitian Temptress more than four times . . . Yeah. I knew it was bottle time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

starlitegirl Posted August 31, 2009 Author Share Posted August 31, 2009 When I'd revisited the description of Tahitian Temptress more than four times . . . Yeah. I knew it was bottle time. That's always a great way to know if you're not sure. I can't wait to see what they all smell like on me. I usually stick with what I know works because I get sad when I like how one smells and then it doesn't work with my chemistry, but having watched all of these get made, it makes me want to test them all. Tahitian Temptress and Honey Ho are two that might be sure winners for me. I'm also curious about La Belle Reveuse - if it's relaxing to me because that would prove very useful given I have rounds of insomnia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amanda Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 Oh good lord! I am literally freaking out that y'all will snap up all the bottles of Jouir De before I get any money that I am almost in tears! (not really, but I'm going for the dramatic here!) Hee! All the releases this month look ridiculously amazing! You ladies did such a great job, wow! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cocamama came out AMAZING. It is reaaalllly intoxicating, like you envisioned. A very unusual combo of ingredients. I love it. I hope you do too! I included an extra bottle in your package for Arturo, since he didn't send me his address. Would you mind passing it along to him for me? Thank you! I'm sorry about the signature...I imagine that with the gigantic pile of orders, your 'no sig' request was forgotten. Rats. Apologies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you for the extra bottle for Arturo ! I will glady pass your gift to him !one of the full sz btls was intially for him, but now I can give that one to my friend that introduced me to him and his talent.

Rather it is I that should apologize to you Mara....I hope I didn't come across as unappreciative, you had a a HUMONGOUS and GENEROUS sale plus the Design'g Aug 09 preparation/brewing, packaging...etc, you're a NEW mommie (Katinka) and your real life ! sometimes I just talk too much I'm so excited !!

Please, please test Pandamaniac and let me know what it's like!! On me it started out green and floral. Dry down turned it to baby powder. But that's probably just my chemistry.

Potion Master Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 On me it started out green and floral. Dry down turned it to baby powder. But that's probably just my chemistry. Florals and greens tend to go awry on me. Oak Moss is (part of) the scent of baby powder, and that's a major ingredient in this recipe. It's also a very long lasting note, so it should be what you smell last after 8 hours+ of wear. I happen to love Oak Moss. But anyway, it's not the flowers and greens that are making that note, nor your chemistry. It was part of the recipe and an intentional dimension of the scent. I believe this was designed as somewhat of a replacement for Aura Armor, and Oak Moss was also a main note in that blend as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

therapygirl Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 I don't mean to be a tease to those of you who haven't gotten your Designing August orders yet, but I just opened mine and have smelled them all in the vial, and I must say they are all absolutely breathtaking! I have Eternal Chain on my hand, it's the only one i have tried yet as I am waiting for my guy to play with me, and I have to tell you, on first sniff I was in love! I also got teary, because by now I know the scents my fella is going to like, and he is going to LOVE this. It just feels so special, like it was meant to be! After my divorce I have had real issues with trust, and the intent of this one really is important to me. I am so happy it smells so beautiful as well! I will review all the scents in the review section, but I just wanted to let you know that there isn't anything that is not gorgeous in the bunch!

I thought it went wonky because of my skin which would make it hard for me to review beyond went wonky on me. The oak moss is working its magic in Pandamaniac. Very pleasant and yep, still quite strong, and I didn't put more that a few swipes of this on me. It's got that soft aroma reminiscent of baby powder with some greens mixed in but rather subtle on me. I think my skin is amping up the oak moss. A very clean and fresh and pretty scent indeed.

Potion Master Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 We have a few different Oakmoss varieties. The one that is the nicest, meaning that it's the most true to nature, is also the one that is the most powdery. We have another that is much much more masculine, I think a drop may have gone into Thane. And the third is like wet tree roots, dark and bitter - I don't think we've used that one for anything yet. When asked for the "moist oakmoss", we probably used the nicest one, but added wetter notes to give it the moist effect. If you are concerned about it in Cocamama, Liz, don't be. It's a minor minor note in there. We went for intoxication and humidity, it's gorgeous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

july_girl Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 Yay, I got my package today!! I'm in love with Siren's Serenade, I'm definitely going to get another bottle of it; Tahitian Temptress is yummy; Eternal Chain is very pretty. For some reason Jouir De smells kind of 'off' to me, maybe I'm sniffing too many scents too close together LOL...and Alzbeta does not agree with me at all. I'll try them out again in the next few days, but I don't think they will be keepers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
