Who else is stalking the upcoming August sale? Do you have a strategy? Favorites you are hoping will end up on the clearance list? Do you have a budget set? Have you sold your spare kidneys, blood, and first born?

I haven't really thought about it for a couple of weeks. But...

I have my list of LPs I'm hoping to find in the sale. No to the trade thread. I last bought some very yummy SC from Dolly and I have 2bottles coming from LV. Otherwise, I've decided to Stay Away, for the most part, until after Sept. I'll probably refresh my trade page in the Fall. I really don't have time to do a lot of shipping ect right now.

I have some favorites that I've been keeping an eye on for a while - to be honest, I'm sort of scared they will end up in the sale and be gone before I get a chance at them. August is going to be a stalk-heavy time for me

I doubt I am going too sale crazy this year. I pretty much bought everything I wanted over the last couple of years so I don't have much of a wish list anymore. I need a few new things though (Crescendo!) so if anything on the list appeals to my mother or sister I will get what I want and use sale credits for them.

I will have to see what happens. I cleaned up on the sale last year.

I am over the moon anticipating the sugareds! And during the sale, I get great deals on all of the bottles I didn't know I needed.

Like how you think!! I have my 'must have' list - and I can't even comprehend the sugareds- since I'm a huge sugar girl and pretty much anything pink sugar to boot. Who knew? But I have to have FBs of ooooh so many things. Can't wait to get more pheros!!

 

On that note I have a small order on the way - all samples - but over the moon because it should arrive tomorrow! SQUEE :cat690:

I'm hanging out for the sugareds, because GRABBY HANDS. I always prefer simpler scents than a long complicated list of notes.

 

I am very excited about them even though I have never smelled of any sugareds...which ones tend to sell out most quickly? and which ones should I concentrate on getting? What are some of your favorites?I know I am aksing some questions that you all may not want to answer..lol ;)

As I understand it, they will probably be permanent, but I could be wrong. A long. long time ago LPMP used to sell a whole lot of sugareds, and I was able to nab a few before they were discontinued. Sugared French Vanilla was one of my favourites! That being said, Sugared Roses, Nag champa, Amber and a few others are permanent scents and you can buy them any time. Of those, I am a huge fan of Sugared Pure - I am big on sweet, foody scents, and I always get compliments when I wear it :)

The original sugared apricots was special. I traded mine away, regretted it, and was thrilled to nab another bottle on the trading post. If you like fruit at all, I'd recommend it.

 

Sugared berries was also good. I used mine up ages ago.

 

Of course sugared honeycomb is one of my staples and it is permanent.

 

I still have a partial bottle of sugared vanilla mint. It is one of my favorite bedtime fragrances. I don't see it on the new list, but you could layer sugared vanilla and sugared mint.

Ahhh...that is fabulous to know!! I love Vanilla (not the dry, but the more foody one) and sugared Roses/Amber/Pure are all on my list of bottles to get..I also love the foody scents..one of my absolute favs right now is the OCCO Pink..it is divine!!

Off of the list that Mara made, sugared apricots was my #1! I saw it on Ivy's list and kicked myself for not getting it, although I am very happy that you were able to give it a loving home! ;) Vanilla is also on my list...I didn't think about the honeycomb...I am starting to like the perfumes with honey a lot!! Just got the NOCO Sugared Vanilla and Honey and it is fantastic!! The perfumes with honey seem to have great staying power on me! May just have to get a sugared berries too!

 

One I am very interested in is the Sugared Coconut. I really haven't started layering perfumes yet, but I am in love with Sweet Surrender (July's NR's) and I thought those two together would be super! I love anything coconut scented!! I am also considering sugared-ginger, grapefruit, jasmine, lavender and oakmoss, among some others...

 

Celrynnya and Xev...thanks so much for taking the time to respond!!! You both have given me some great suggestions!! :)

I wondered the same thing, but just assumed that it's Pure Sugar. And now you have all got me looking forward to the Sugareds again, but I swear I'm holding off until September because they'll still be around then, and, well, SALE!

:yeahthat: The sale. I try not to think too much about it now otherwise my anxiety level will be off the charts by the time it gets here. I'm with you Amalthea...I didn't think much about the Sugareds until reading all these posts! I don't have sugared ANYTHING so trying to 'narrow' my list is futile. I don't know who added this emoticon, but it is the perfect oxymoron for Sugared Pure/Pure Sugar...

I haven't placed an order in several weeks..trying to wait for the sale...it's the first time in months I don't have an order to look forward to receiving...HELP!!! I am going through serious withdrawls!!! I am like an addict, sitting at the computer and wanting to finalize an order so I will have something coming soon....Lord, please let the time pass quickly...lol ;)

 

 

Fellow addicts: Is the list of sale items posted before the sale begins so we can plan what we would like?

No and if you are not at the computer at just the right minute all the great scents are gone.

 

Just kidding! The sale is fun given the scope plus you can stock up at great prices. It is really great of Mara to run the sale. A win-win for everyone.

Lol QG, you joke but I'm already starting to feel the anxiety!

 

I wish I had known what I was doing last year, then maybe I would remember it better this year!

Are you trying to send me to the hospital, quietguy??!!! I read the first line and immediately starting getting palpitations..lol Your next line saved me..;)

 

If you have any advice to give on men's scents, it would be greatly appreciated....I am having a hard time finding something for my fiance and my dad to wear. So far, Captain Fantastic (one I am stalking at the moment) is one of the only ones I have found...both lean towards the commercial side of perfumes/colognes and both need a very light scent. Do you have any recommendations? Anything with tobacco in it is out-my dad amps it and can't stand the smell since he quit smoking (he also has OCPD so he can't take anything strong)...Jatin has Aspergers and can't take strong scents (certain ones) because they irritate him...currently he uses D&G Light Blue for men...:)

Here is the list of LPs I have. I think most are still available.

 

http://lovepotion.invisionzone.com/index.php?showtopic=9327

 

Light scents IMO:

 

Aqualad

Ambuscade (very traditional male scent IMO)

Eternal Sunshine (if Cpt Fantastic works, this should also I would think)

Excaliber

Fronds with Benefits (too light for me but certainly light)

The Garage (smooth & not heavy at all)

LP#9

Merlin's Blend

Moon of the Falling Leaves

Ruisseau

Sandy Bottom

Sinner & the Saint (very smooth vanilla though not as light as these others)

Swimming with Sharks

Thrill of the Chase (sweet to my & Mrs. QG's nose)

Tonka Musk (very smooth though again not as light like some of the others)
