Potion Master Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 We want to thank everyone who participated and shared their beautiful stories with us. We loved every one of them and it was extremely difficult to narrow them down and make our decisions. We had to take into consideration if the concept worked as a marketable fragrance and also balance the set according to fragrance families and note whether we had released anything similar recently. So, this was a tough one, sorry for the wait! We think the final results came out fabulous, fun and maybe a little surprising, (cuz we had to tweak a few things). We hope you enjoy them! A round of applause for all of you who pitched in! Thanks and BRAVO!!!

I don't think you'll have to buy it, ravenwing... (From the Designing August 2011 thread) <snip>So, tell us: What does your favorite song smell like? Tell us about your favorites, and why you think they would make great perfumes. Tell us how the song touches you personally. Tell us what scents describe the song for you or what scents the lyrics evoke when you hear them. Perhaps you remember exactly where you were or what you were doing when you first heard your favorite song on the radio? If your song/story/description is chosen for our 'Top 10' we will send you a free bottle of the perfume you helped create! <snip> I can't wait to see what the notes are, the labels are all so awesome!!

LadyVictoria Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 I can't wait for the descriptions! Thanks guys this was fun and brought back a lot of beautiful memories for me!

It has been so cool to see just how visceral these songs are for us all. Really says something about humans and our music. It's one of the reasons we *do* music. Wow.

Oh I know!!! It's like Mika Kuni's character in Black Swan! It can't be Natalie because I hate stuffed animals, and I would never wear that much pastel, I look like salmon in pastels.
