Good Judy : Zarzycki - The epitome of best friend. Tom has seen me through some tough times and has stayed tried and true throughout. A quiet and unassuming person, he loves his creature comforts and is very happy to just be. Since we both belong to the "unusual last name" club, I had to name this blend Zarzycki ( Read more... )

Possets: Take Tea and Sea (Rhode Island) - Think of something bracing, curious, and refreshing. Rhode Island is all of those things. There is little which is finer than tea on the lawn of one of the "cottages" at the height of summer and the air is cool and you can sense the sea. Such an interesting place. Not at all sweet and the essence of a " ( Read more... )

Strawberry Heart - Sweet, simple, lovely. Scrumptious strawberry untrammeled by anything other than the most perfect of vanillas. Other people dip their berries in chocolate, let them, we have found the ultimate in indulgence. So. Very. Good. Have you ever noticed how strawberries look just like little hearts? Sweet, foody, innocent, girly, divine. ( Read more... )

SCREECHING PARROT - Golden rum, apricot liquor, pineapple, pomegranate, ginger, brandy, grapefruit, and pink lime.Wet on Skin: rum and ginger. Sadly, no citrus is coming through ( Read more... )

MIDWAY RESURRECTED - A bombardment of edible carnival indulgences. Funnel cake, caramel apple, cotton candy, salt water taffy and sugar tart.

Sticky sweet, that turned very soapy on me. Not something I'm very fond of at all. I should be more wary of impulse buys! This is going to be going up for sale. It just doesn't work on me at all.

El Dia De Reyes - Hot cocoa with cinnamon, coffee, and brown sugar. This one is too gorgeous for words. The chocolate is deep and strong, much more of a dark chocolate scent than the milk chocolate of Bliss. The spices came through, but never overpowered the lovely dark creamyness that was the chocolate ( Read more... )

Egg Nog 2007 - Sweet brandy, dark rum, heavy cream, sugar, and a dash of nutmeg. In the bottle and in the scent locket it's warm and sweet and heavy with liquor and absolutly gorgeous ( Read more... )

Possets' Gibbous Moon: Black tea and spices, with a huge shot of liquor and fruit, all of these are married together and left to blend and mature. The result is a heavenly perfume and not just the cinnamon and clove variety, but strange yet familiar strains of turmeric bumping up against a thick Shiraz or a twice steeped baby black tea with a ( Read more... )

Samhain 2007 - Truly the scent of autumn itself -- damp woods, fir needle, and black patchouli with the gentlest touches of warm pumpkin, clove, nutmeg, allspice, sweet red apple and mullein.Warm and sweet and lovely. Much like a New England autumn day, the scent keeps evolving. After a few hours it had a note of chocolate, then even later in the ( Read more... )

Possets: Nuts in a Pumpkin - If there was ever anything which combined with the scent of pumpkin and made it better, it's in here. The idea of the nuts so prominent at this time of year made it all just come together for me in my imagination and, voila, Nuts in a Pumpkin. Butter, several kinds of smooth nutty nuts, sweetness and a thoroughly golden ( Read more... )
