luna65 Posted March 5, 2011 Share Posted March 5, 2011 This is a very interesting amber, it's much lighter than what you would normally imagine amber to be, which I attribute to the citrus notes. It's got a creamy bottom to it (sort of like Caught In The Act) but it's really warm and glowing with an uplifting quality. Sort of foody in the grand tradition of other LPMP ambers, but if you're generally not one for amber/resins you owe it to yourself to try this one, it's a total Spring amber!

ladybegood1 Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 This one is definitely foodie on me. Kind of reminds me of a cookie, a mildly spiced butter cookie. There is a creaminess to this one and the cassia comes thru for me. This one is a light scent! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheshire Kitten Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 This one reminded me a lot of Caught in the Act on first application. As the day wore on it turned kinda musty on me and now smells off. I'll try it again later, but it was a nummy light spring scent while it was playing nice, haha. It also irritated the skin on my neck, which has never happened before. Fine on my wrists/chest though. Maybe I just scrubbed myself too hard in the shower Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolly Posted March 10, 2011 Share Posted March 10, 2011 Being an amber lover, I knew this was the first one I needed to try! This one is a little foody, but not excessively so......kind of like a fruit and cookie "undercurrent" running through it.....I really am enjoying this one...... Most definitely a springy type amber, as my friend Luna described! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JOC Posted March 10, 2011 Share Posted March 10, 2011 OK, so as it aged on my skin, it has turned to more of a primarily apple scent with a backdrop of amber.......nice! Okay, now we're talking .... people are not quite accustomed to foody scents. I don't mind being the odd one out but they just think it's weird why I want to smell as if I've spent the whole day in the kitchen! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not overly foody on my skin.....my man doesn't like foody scents on me, so I don't wear them often.....he is ok with fruity notes though, like the apricot of LP, peaches in Empress, or the Mermaids/Tail type fruitiness......I think he would be ok with this one.....

rinster Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 This one reminds me a bit of a lemon creme Girl Scout cookie: light, luscious, and a little tart. Yum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LadyVictoria Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 This one smelled like vanilla butter ice cream. It's very yummy indeed! It's also rich. Like if you had dutch apple pie with vanilla bean ice cream. That's what comes to mind when I smell this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bruiseviolet Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 This is very subtle on me and I can't really smell any amber. It is light and fruity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
perfumesniffer Posted April 2, 2011 Share Posted April 2, 2011 (edited) The first note I got after applying was something foody and delicious from the bakery, next all these wonderful spices with a hint of fruits came out. Then the apple came to the foreground, a spicy baked apple. The drydown is amber, spices and some kind of apple pastry, but it was very faint.

ravenwing Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 i am not an amber lover but this is beautiful. first starts off as a cookie smell and then a little apple comes out closer to dry down. very nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ishtar Posted May 3, 2011 Share Posted May 3, 2011 At first blush, this reminds me of a soft, very sweet mead or even better, one of these intensely sweet fruit wines. The sweetness burns off after a few minutes though, leaving behind a really pretty amber and apple combination. After complete drydown, Brigid's Amber loses much of its fruitiness on my skin. It settles into a buttery, slightly spicy, and very mild amber. Really, if you're not too sure about resins, there's nothing to fear with this one - the amber is quite soft, and much lighter than I expected.

LadyVictoria Posted May 3, 2011 Share Posted May 3, 2011 Me too Ishtar. Wet it smells like Heaven! After a few minutes it gets very apple-y and spicy. Then it just fades really fast, like those pine tress for your car that you keep after it's been hanging from your windshield wiper thingie for weeks.. but you still keep it there because you love the way it smells and if you hold your nose really close or put it up to the vents there's a little trace that lingers.. I really love this one too.. but it just vanishes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
