Honesty can be lacking in eTailers, that's for sure. I looked at their site after your raves last week, but don't see much that I like. Granted, I'm only halfway through. :)
I didn't love the hibiscus freeb you gave me from that circle, I can't remember which. The sarsaparilla was very neat, but also not love. I think I had to try a lot before I learned which notes I like and don't. Funnily enough, Flossing was pure love at first sniff! I've only recently discovered what I do and don't like from BPAL, and found that I was TOTALLY off.
You were so sweet, knowing that I like celestial and Zodiac. Sadly, I don't think I love Leo, or the other fellows with it. :( This perfumer sounds like a dream, and I will definitely compleat the search tonight on her site. I need a break anyway. :) Been working my patoot off!
If you find something you think you'd love more, or a pack a samples let me know and I'll swap you for that leo! Cause I really liked it! But I knew from first sniff that it wasn't a YOU scent :( Or anything else that you're eyeing. Another Torture queen or.... whatever! Conjure does tend to lean toward my likes, which conversely means AWAY from yours. :)
I see a few that are interesting! I'm making a list now. It's a very herbal type of site. Definitely not me. I had the most luck with the Feri Oils. :)
I just think it rude for me to say thanks but no thanks! and then swap you out, but if you'd enjoy Leo, as you enjoy so many Leo friends, by all means!
if there was a perfume called "evil perfume temptress perfume" it would totally have your picture on the bottle. *LOL* i'm off to add more stuff to my wishlist, even though at this point it will probably take me 10 years to get through what i already have!!
oh yeah woman - you are indeed the perfume debbil!!! i just made my conjure oils wishlist - SEVENTY ONE scents!!! that's nearly as bad as my BPAL list! of course it doesn't help that the entire santeria collection appealed to me. *headdesk*
Haha. Good customer service is HIGHLY under appreciated these days. Her packaging is one of the prettiest I've seen too! Colourful labels on the bottles, and the "pip" labels are all Wild-west-apothecary looking with browned, old fashioned looking labels.
That's one of the reasons Possets stole my heart so quickly. $2.40 for shipping? PSHT! Gas would cost me more than that if they had a shop in the mall I could drive to! the thing that kind of irritates me about BPAL's s&h (other than the ridiculous turn around time) is that they just loosely throw those imps into bubble wrap. They always spill out on tot he floor on me. I'm a sucker for presentation, though, and there's is LACKING for serious. Maybe they're just confident that the product sells itself, doesn't need anything fancy. And clearly they are right! But I just think for all the extra 'packaging and handling fees' we pay they could tart it up just a bit! And maybe they do for larger orders, I've only ever ordered sample packs. Guess I 'll find out when our Carnaval order gets here!

Just means I'll have to get a Cancer bottle to match, for my lovelies.
I think it reminds me of a candy, but I couldn't figure out which. Something sweet tart powdery.
Let me know what you want! :)

I will have to get some samples when I get paid. If only to give her sales for such good service. (yeah thats why... heh)
You know I think that I have a sample of hers in my imp box. I will have to go look...
