    The Hanging Gardens

    I was really concerned when fresh from the bottle it was so over poweringly fruity. But I put it on anyway. Wet..ugh still fruit. overly ripe fruit at that. Dryer...oh look flowers and palm are poking through. Dry, this is gorgeous. All of the flowers come up and beat the fruit into a bloody pulp while the palm tempers the sweetness and makes it the perfect summertime, spring and fall floral... 10ml a must!

    Thank you Astrid for this...I love it! wet :fresh and astringent like fresh cut up lemons with a bit of wet nap in the back. dryer: reminds me of lemon heads candy dry: the bitterness of the rind comes out in the end. it's still very lemony and fresh and there's an aquatic note in the background. it's lovely really. Very light and nice. it's like a bottle of sunshine

    What BPAL is the most like Shalimar?

    One of my coworkers refuses to belive I'm wearing anything other than Shalimar when I have Snake Oil on.
  4. OMG!!! Vixen is Karma!!! *dies with delight*
  5. It's wierd, I can't remember why I swapped my bottle of scherezade to begin with...i loved it. So I think I may reorder a bottle of that while it's still spring and i can get away with florals. Vixen I'm curious about. Very curious about. Worst case senerio I can always swap her out.
  6. I'm looking to do warm weather scents. I loathe wearing florals when it's hot out, they give me a giant throbbing migraine. I HATE (and I cannot stress that enough) Patchouli. However I do like Snake Oil. This is my next order so far... Vixen Old Morracco Scherezade Would you caution or suggest any others?

    CCNow or PayPal

    Just to add, I got a paypal response from the lab for my 2/17 order but not my 2/22, 2/24, but I did get one yesterday for my 3/15, So I guess it just depends. I'm sure it will come through no problem.

    Bridal BPAL - BPAL for weddings?

    I have no idea what to wear to my wedding, i'm seriously considering Black Dahlia, but then again, I don't know. What are you wearing to your wedding? What are your rec's?

    White Rabbit

    Interesting. It seemed alot like March Hare when it went on. All sweet and fruity and creamy. after the dry down I got a bit of the honey and pepper and cream. Sadly about fifteen minutes later this had been eaten by my skin.

    Recs for those who can't do sweet perfumes?

    Mine loves Vicomte Valmont...and it's down right killer on him. I know others love Villian...but vote is definately VV. Miranda

    Haunted

    I got my 5ml today...oh how lovely... wet: sweet, and flowery. It's perfumey without being nauseating...it has some powdery parts, but all in all it's very nice. dry: it turns into a lush store. It's a dead ringer for B Never's Keep it Fluffy. That smell that lingers on your clothes after you leave a lush store...it's glorious!

    Philosophy Gingerman and Eggnog....

    I have had no luck making my own stuff with the exception of soap...so I much prefer to buy the stuff...besides...i love philosophy's products...and the three in ones are excellent for dry skin.

    Somnus

    I recieved this last night. Oh and am I glad I did. I tore open the box and grabbed at it and went to put a little on my wrist and well..it just poured out of the reducer. So it was an accidental slathering. Well, I can smell the lavender...most definately and lillies, jasmine? it's lovely and it really does relax you like a pain killer does. Michael and I immediately started to doze...but sadly we had to go out, I will be putting dabs of this on my pillow cases tonight.

    Job Interview Recommendations

    I agree with Snake Oil....it's womanly, confident and just upright powerful.

    When your favorite GC blends are discontinued

    I was so sad to see this go, but Alice has been bumped up, it's not as mysterious and I;m looking for something a little darker... what did you all do

    CCNow or PayPal

    CCNow does work, infact that's all I used up until this time. You just click on the 5ml bottle things below the description. It's such an easy way of doing things...

    Help with Jasmine scents, please!

    Wicked was all jasmine to me....probably one of the reasons I both loved and hated that scent. But if you love Jasmine that much, go and get some.
