Potion Master Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 I read somewhere that when you are smelling a lot of perfumes that if you have coffee grounds to smell them after you sniff each perfume and thats supposed to help. It barely helps at all, in reality. After deep sniffs of 2 or 3 different perfumes, you are no longer getting an accurrate read on what you are smelling. You really just need to rest your nose between trials. After 3, I rest my nose for 2 hours before I sample another lot. When I brew, I blend a few ingredients, then wait until my nose is fresh again, then add more ingredients, and so on. Glad everyone is enjoying the paw print pouches! We couldn't resist - I thought they were so cute along with the Bohemian Cats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlynn Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 What I find so interesting about perfumes is how they are unique to each person.I have had many women tell me they can't stand Sensual Amber from B&BW but they love it on me.There are scents they smell wonderful on other women but stink on me.

missdarlyncherie Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 DAMMIT TO HELL! Mine did not arrive yesterday as hoped for. Has to be today then. I spent the night at Michaels (because of the drinking at the funeral) and he jumped up first thing this morning to check the mail even with his pounding hangover! (I get my mail at his house). He enjoys the package as much as I do even though he pretends to think it is silly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Potion Master Posted May 13, 2012 Share Posted May 13, 2012 Liz, that happens all the time now that the postal system is automated. It just means it was routed to the wrong area. It will get re-routed and I'm sure you will have it in your hands within the next couple of days. No worries. This is the NEW biz as usual for USPS.

Potion Master Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 Well THERE it is, buried under a mountain of junk mail in my inbox! Come on, burial insurance--seriously? You know, those come here all the time for the former tenant who is over 60. I am just stunned by the sheer volume of it. It strikes me as insanely tacky. I still forward some of her fan mail, but those I leave out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raq On Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 Still waiting for my little notice in my inbox which is almost as exciting as actually getting the package. The whole process really is too fun. I'm getting nervous that I didn't order a bottle of the ambrosia, Just a trial, as fruit is iffy on me, but what an overwhelming response to it. It's gotta be good!

Just a question: Mara did you stop putting the labels on the back of the UN bottles (in alcohol and silicone mix) ? Mine didn't have them this time No, but I maybe forgot? They only get a label if the mix is different from the normal offered...a special order mix. Did I forget on yours? I'm sorry!! I can send you stickers if you like. I make each spray bottle to order so I would have done yours according to your order form, but I might sometimes forget stickers. Apologies!!

I make each spray bottle to order so I would have done yours according to your order form, but I might sometimes forget stickers. Apologies!! Nah, that's okay. I just want to remember if one is a mix of oil and silicone so i remember to shake it first. isn't Topper silicone/alcohol? I think I made a mental note to always shake that one before applying. YES!
