Rose Blackthorn Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 Mara you mentioned Sugared Apples was nice with a PE - Jennifer's Farmhouse Afternoon I think? I received my Apples with Bonfire and that is an excessively delicious combo too. tyvey, that is awesome! Great idea! Ooooh, those both sound great. We'll have to add a section for everyone's experiments in the new Sugared sub-forum when we put it up. I *really* look forward to mixing these sugared notes and coming up with really nice blends! This would be like cooking all this yummy stuff and sharing recipes! I love it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Potion Master Posted August 12, 2014 Author Share Posted August 12, 2014 The review threads are being posted because these are starting to ship, but a reminder, please do not fill these threads with speculation if you haven't tried the blend - there are other places for that. Let's keep the review threads for reviews and other pertinent info. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueBear Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 Honestly, I had forgotten how much I love these sweet pure scents. Sug Apples is just instant happiness to my nose! Word!! I have an old bottle that is just amazing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Potion Master Posted August 13, 2014 Author Share Posted August 13, 2014 Ok, have come to decision today, based upon the OVERWHELMING response for the Sugared Collection. Out of the 125 we have offered, already 102 have been ordered, with the list growing every day. I honestly did not expect the variety of orders...I think I expected to make closer to 75 in the end, but I am very pleased with the range of different kinds of scents people are interested in. The same goes for the sale this year too! A much wider range of interest than usual - people stepping out of just the foody realm and into more daring scents. I'm quite proud of everyone for that! I mentioned at the start of this all I would only brew what had been ordered, but the number of different ones ordered is so vast, that I realized I am not going to have time to do a September set as usual. The Sugars are coming out sooo great, soooo awesome, I really want to devote my time to getting these right, and as fast as possible to get them to everyone. So, halting everything to work on a Sept set doesn't make sense. The sale goes halfway through September, people can catch up on their wishlists and get all the Sugars they want, and I'll be back with a kick ass new collection of Autumnal and Halloweenies for October. Hope this is ok with everyone. Thanks so much for your understanding! xoxox I am going to cross post this in announcements as well, to make sure everyone sees it.

On a serious note - this is a dumb question - but with everything "sugared" - are any of these guy's scents? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, halting everything to work on a Sept set doesn't make sense. Honestly, Mara, I have to say thank you! I already pretty much have my September order planned out, and I was just thinking that it was actually a bit stressful to ME to have NR's in September - I can't even imagine how much work it would be for YOU!!! I really want to start on the sugared line, so I thank you, and my bank account thanks you too:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cchristys Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 (edited) Oh, Please tell me there is going to be a sugared grapefruit. Edited to say: YES!!! I just saw there is going to be one.

On a serious note - this is a dumb question - but with everything "sugared" - are any of these guy's scents? On the serious note, YES! The white and powdered sugars do not necessarily come off as feminine, they just soften what might be a sharp note. There are many of these that won't be getting the pink and brown sugars for this reason, so that they can be worn by either sex. I'll be doing this with the woods, greens, certain spices, vetiver, your musk...just keep an eye for ones that focus on the white and or powdered sugars and those will generally be the ones men will be comfortable wearing as well as the ladies.

katz Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 QG, I'm betting Sugared Woods (I'm guessing akin to the former Sugared Forest) will be *superb* for guys. Along with Sandalwood, Earth, Greenery, Cedar...etc... and of course, Clean Musk! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luna65 Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 Quince has worn the original Sugared Patchouli from time-to-time - I think it's one anyone could wear (provided they like patchouli), and he's a fan of Sugared Forest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black Cat Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 Thank you, dear Halo! I am one of those people who can't handle Facebook -- LP is my safe online place! As I said earlier, it was a little intimidating to ask to join the lineup later in the game, since all of you up already are so AMAZINGLY GORGEOUS! This was kind of a big deal for me -- I am very camera shy normally. And you can't really see it unless you look closely, but I had a substantial surgery on the right side of my face about a year and a half ago when I had two basal cell carcinomas removed -- the scars are not that noticeable, but they are well-defined (my wonderful mentor friend says I should just refer to them as my duelling scars!). So when I asked my semi-pro photographer sister if she would take my picture, she just about fell over! And it made for a lovely little time for us together when she was here visiting with her family. We popped into my mom's backyard and my sister snapped a bunch and we picked the two best ones and I let Mara work the magic from there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love the mysterious coloring of that one. And I didn't even know we had a SUGARED MAPLE. That is a must and I love the spirit of the model too. Yay!

Hi Mara, thank you for this - it is a bit of a relief, I was feeling rather breathless! The Sugared labels are all SO beautiful!!! I have trouble deciding which one(s) to order first; luckily (in a sense) I have some time to make up my mind yet because I don't have any room in my budget until September.

And Katz, Saffron, Rose, JudyO, MDC -- thanks so much for the kind words. Very fun to join you lovelies! I am going nuts dividing these into sets of 12 and ranking my need.

ephoebe23 Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 Well I still have a vanilla variety that has your name on it. But I also have another 35-40 fruits, resins and flowers to go... just send some pix that you think might work well on a label and I'll match it with something suitable. And HEY, that goes for ALL OF YOU! You can friend me on facebook and let me mine your gallery if it's too hard to send pix, too. THANK YOU for all the kind words. I am really loving making these labels. It's the most fun I have ever had with them. I love looking into the eyes of the people I adore as I make them. Thanks everyone for making this possible. Hey Mara! How do i find you on facebook? I'd like to send a coupl of pics if you are still looking, don'tknow if they'll inspire you though. You've done an awesome job here, everyone looks amazing!!!
