I smell like a Tim Hortons and I am happy.

I love this. It reminds me of warm, sweet hay on a summer evening in a way that bpal's actual hay note never seems to capture for me.

This was really pretty and I loved it. Gentle strawberry, some nice greenery in the background. Then about two hours later I was like, "What the hell did the kids spill soap somewhere?" Nope. It was me, all the pretty strawberry was gone and I smell strongly of soap instead.

2017 VERSION This just came in the mail and I tore into it like a large dog trying to break into a case of hot dogs. There's cardboard scattered around the kitchen, bubble wrap fragments in the sink. I'd never even smelled this one before, but it's such a legend I could not control my rabid enthusiasm. Okay. Okay. It's open. Dab a little, test it out, don't get your hopes up....... Oh. My. Fucking. God. IT'S OKAY. SLATHER IT ALL OVER YOUR BODY. If you could tattoo yourself with a scent. I'd be okay with living the rest of my life smelling like this. This is definitely a cousin of my beloved Stekkjarstaur, but it has a beautiful musky lacey dustiness rather than the wooly warmth that comes from Stekk.

"Oh wow, I didn't expect this to be so wearable. It's pretty musky and kind of nice...." -and then- The florals start to push forward, green tentacles that wrap themselves around me and start to squeeze. My face begins to ooze..... My throat constricts.... Bpal, the prettiest poison.

This goes on all pine and dries down into something utterly beautiful. It smells like standing in a forest at dawn. So pretty.

I expected this to taste like vanilla and rose. I was surprised to find that it tastes like vanilla and mint. It is very tasty, but besides the color it doesn't really make me think of Pink Snowballs. This is Snowblind Floof.

Pumpkin Masala Rooibos? I'm not big on pumpkin scents, but I love that one.

This smells like cheese in the bottle. Like I was horrified by how much it smelled like stinky cheese. But I soldiered on and bravely put it on my skin and Bam! Beautiful, rich caramel. Really, really weird ride to get there though.

It might have been musk. I love it and I usually wear it easily but sometimes, especially if my skin is really dry, it will irritate my skin. Almost all my perfume irritates my skin if I put it on too soon after taking a shower as well.

How do you feel about knitted stuff? Fancy? Plain? I liked knitted stuff. I like all of it, but I am really impressed by the fancy stuff. What types of things do you like to wear? I'm into beer. How 'bout you? Styles? And booze? I like beer as well. I do not like IPAs. I dark beer. I don't really drink alcohol otherwise. How do you feel about caramel? Salt or no? With chocolate or without? Yes. Yes to all of it. Would you be interested in home made food items? - garlic dill pickles - blackberry jam - dried honey crisp apples - applesauce (with or without red hots) - elderberry syrup (with honey and apple cider vinegar - great for immune boosting) - honey from our bees - rose petal liquor (made with our own rose petals and everclear but diluted down a bit so it doesn't knock you over) - baked goods of your choice, what do you like or dislike? I don't like applesauce but all the rest of it sounds good! Would you be interested in project bags/pouches? I usually make flat bottom round pouches with a pocket inside and a drawstring. Possibility of embroidery if we still have the huge commercial machine. Could be fun! And to go along with the previous knitting question... Are you allergic to any fiber or do you know what kind of yarn you prefer? (merino, merino cashmere, merino cashmere silk, 100% silk, 100% cashmere, merino nylon, BFL, BFL silk, etc. Or do you like acrylic?) No allergies that I know of. I prefer softer when it comes to stuff that touches my skin. Would you want a quilted pot holder? Sure! Do you have any prefered flavour of shortbread? I didn't know it came in flavors! 9/14/16: What are you interested in from the recent BPAL and BPTP updates? (Lilith, Lunacy, etc.) So many Liliths.

Outlaw Reapers Gonna Reap The Twelfth Would you like hibiscus seeds? No, my cats eat all of my house plants. 9/19/16 Speaking of snarky, who's a fan of The Mincing Mockingbird? I've never heard of them before. A quick Googling tells me that the magnets and stuff are hilarious though. Do you decorate for Halloween all year? If not, what level of decor do you have for Halloween? I have a couple things that I keep out all year. I don't have a ton of decorations up until this year I lived in a pretty small house. Indoor/outdoor Halloween decorations? What do you do, and what would you prefer to receive? Both! What's your preferred Halloween decor style: classic/traditional (skulls, pumpkins, bats), kitchsy/cute, retro, elegant/Victorian, horror/macabre? Cute, elegant, harvesty type stuff What's your candy preference? In my house. Haha, I have a bit of a sweet tooth. I like all chocolate except white. I like haribo gummies. I like interesting flavors and types of treats I might not have tried before. Does anyone like fleece character hats? Like these? http://wonderlandonline.storenvy.com/collections/354444-anime-video-games/products/13089516-pusheen-like-fleece-hatWhat kinda characters would you like to see? I kind of love the pusheen and Totoro ones. 9/18/16 Who here is a Raging All THINGS HARRY POTTER fan? Yes, I am a huge Potter fan. I'm a Hufflepuff!

I was going to say everything, but then I remembered that Japan can get really weird. Would you object to re-using of clean mailing materials? No objection! 9/16/16 Is there anything you'd particularly like to get from the UK? I'd love stuff from the UK, but I'm drawing blank of specifics.

I've always been interested in sock dreams, but I have wide calves so I haven't made the plunge yet. Anyone a nail polish fan? What colored interest you? I'm not huge into it, but I do have some around and I usually buy Zoya when I do. I'd love some autumnal colors! 9/22/16 Would you like some hair falls?

BPTP: Yes, I don't use much bath oil but I like everything else. Nail Wraps: I've never tried them, but I have silly tiny finger nails so I'm not sure how well they would work. Teas/Spices/Spice Rubs/Specialty Ingredients from a local tea & spice shop? Tea is always okay. I'm not a big fan of red or herbal tea. Spices and rubs sound fun. I do a lot of cooking. In Regards to loose/bagged tea: I prefer loose, but will drink either. Speaking of spices - where's your spicy/heat threshold? (scale of 1 - 10 - 1 being nothing more than black pepper, 10 being ghost pepper+) Like a 7. I like spicy, but I also have bad acid reflux so I try to not take things overboard. Preferred book format? Physical, PDF, Kindle, etc? I can use any format. I like physical books, but I also like using my Nook/ipad to read with as well. Would you be interested in any handmade critters? Stuffed animals, knit or crochet beasties, or anything remotely similar? If so, please give an example or five Corgis or turtles!

Flowers (seeds, real, or handmade) prank-related items, a court jester's cap? Feel free to be creative and crazy with this one! We're moving into a brand new house in the suburbs. I've always been a country girl and I've never lived in the suburbs, but I really would still like to plant a small garden and some flowers. If you are a gardeny witch I would love tips on getting things started. Pet owners - would you like any kind of toy or supply for your pet? Corgi kid is still young enough that she is a intense chewer. Toys for her would be great! Geek paraphernalia!

I'm a shameless Harry Potter lover. Hufflepuff! Any yarn, plastic, metal, or fabric sensitivities? No would you like pretty stationery/note cards, etc, for writing snail mail? I love collecting this kind of stuff but I rarely get a chance to use it. If you could have any BPALs right now (GC, LE, HTF) what would they be? Give examples of at least a few of each category Any places you would like gift cards from? Honestly, Target. I'm going to need a lot of stuff for the new house. Do you wear make-up?

A microplane, more measuring cups (bonus points for fun colors!). Gardens/plants: I am dreaming of spring, dear witch: Do you like plants? Do you have any? Indoor potted plants? A balcony bed? A yard? Do you want/need anything? I do like plants, but I haven't learned much about gardening. I want to plant tomatoes for my oldest this year. As of Thursday, March 3 8:30 PM If I were to make you something based on one or more interests mentioned in your Q'aire/blog, would you prefer something you could wear, something that hangs on a wall, or something that sits on a shelf (or couch or wherever) ? Wall would be great. Are you in need of BPAL storage? Always. Hi, witchee! Do you like candles? Incense? Wax melts? Candles can be iffy for me due to allergies. Soy candles seem to work best. No incense please. BAGS! Do you like/want/need any kind of bags? Purses (big, small, medium), storage type bags, totes, re-usable grocery bags, make up or craft supply bags . . . anything? And if so, please give as much info as possible about type, color, use, fabric, etc I don't really use bags much. Here's a question. I make handmade journals/albums/smashbooks/junk journals. Would you be interested in anything like that? Yes! If you like Harry Potter stuff, what house do you belong in? If you like Game of Thrones, what family? Hufflepuff! I do not like Game of Thrones. What's your favorite animal/totem? Would you be interested in a small figurine of said animal from this etsy user? Corgis and turtles Anything exciting to you in PBSW's Spring Collection?

If I were to send you a garment, what size would I send? I'm a plus sized lady. 2 or 3 X depending on how the garment runs. What style of bag from here (if any) would you like? You can easily narrow down the choices on the side menu - but I only want to know the style, not the pattern! http://eu.baba-store...bags-and-purses It's Hottie Friday, witches and witchees! Name a famous crush or five Also - what are the last 5 songs that appeared on your random or shuffle music list. Updated 3/7 If you should happen to be my witchee, are there any items in my store that you would like? Nut-Made by LisaNut Oh Witchee, have you seen the kimono tops that are all the rage right now? Would you like one? I will sew you one if you do, just tell me if you're a fringe or lace edge or plain edge type of person- I have your color picks from your questionnaire, unless you'd like it in something different than those? I was thinking about busting out the sculpy clay - I sometimes like to make cute little fantasy miniature sculpture, like fairy doors, or miniature garden gnomes for potted plants, or I've even made a couple of tiny smaug's based on this cartoon. If you were my witchee, how would you feel about receiving some tiny fantasy art for your home? Any preference between a fairy door, or a garden gnome, a tiny fairy box, or something like smaug? If you won a gift certificate for $100 (Or similar amount in your country) that could be used ANYWHERE what would you get? Something that you look forward to each spring, or that when you see it (hear it/smell it/taste it, etc) you think "Yes! Spring is here!" or something along those lines! I always know that it isn't going to snow anymore when the magnolia trees start to bloom. I feel like I hold my breath every spring waiting for one more snow storm until I come across a magnolia in bloom. Witchee, how do you feel about this type of garment? What color & size would you like? (keep in-mind it does say it runs one size big!) Are there any mythical creatures that you're really into and that you would enjoy gifts relating to?

This smells like one of the lab's snow notes to me, like the one that is in Ondurdis or Almond Blossom. Fruity snow. No bread, no butter, no specific fruits. This is not at all what I expected.

My impression of Peach Pie hair gloss is almost the complete opposite of the above review. I get PEACH, really super realistic peach - tart and sweet. I get no pastry and no spices. The scent is not as strong and sweeter when it dries, but I still don't smell any pastry. I like it a lot, but I expected it to be more pie like.

I think Jupiterian Phoenix is my favorite rainy day scent. It's so cozy.

Wet: "Whoa, that smells like vetiver mixed with Lilith Victoria." It seems that I'm the only person getting that scent, so idk. Dry: All honey all the time. I like it, but I kind of wish that the wet scent hung around.

Hi witch! I hope you have a wonderful autumn! Thank you so much for taking time to stalk me! Amazon wishlist: https://amzn.com/w/2IRNSZ9E8V6O8 (This wishlist is the result of years of window shopping. There are things on here I don't expect anyone to get me.) Paintbox Soapworks wishlist: Smoky Jack Hot Process The Fusilier Hot Process The Hermit Hot Process I would love lotions in any of the above scents as well. I have a wishlist at Ten Thousand Villages, but it does not let you link it directly. It needs to be emailed. I love practically everything there though, so it's hard to make a misstep. In thread questions: Pumpkin: Yes please, I usually like pumpkin things. Booze: I'm generally in favor, but this year I'm pregnant so anything that was sent would have to be able to last until April. =-) Yellowstone: Huckleberry? I've never tried it, sounds like it could be fun. A postcard would be fun too! 9/18/15 I know there is a question about "decorating style", but if you're comfortable, could you should us some photos of your spaces? For those of us who like to art and craft, it can be nice to have a visual sense of decorating style! My house is for sale right now, so the best way to share pictures is to just share the listing: http://www.nothnagle.com/Properties/Details.aspx?MLS=19&M=R276251 9/19/15 For those of you who don't drink alcohol, can you specify if you live with any drinkers or ever have alcohol on hand for guests, vs. abstaining and preferring not to have it around at all?

Any gadgetry you're in need of? Any brands or flavors that you particularly love, loathe, or want to try? I hate coffee. I basically fuel my exsistence on tea. I prefer loose over bagged. Caffeine is fine. I like Black, white, green, oolong. I do not like Red or herbal. Cider and cocoa are both good too. What's your sense of humor like? Do you enjoy puns? Play on words? Dirty humor? Dry humor? Who are some of your favorite comedians? I'm not a humor snob. I'll laugh at most things, just no gross humor. Do you like board games? If so, which ones? Traditional or more unique?

Coffee or coffee flavoured things. Plain or fun socks? Fun! As a side note, I'm a plus sized gal and I have wide calves, which is sometimes good to know for taller socks. Name one (or as many as you would like) thing you would like to learn more about? I would really like to have some kind of hobby to do with my hands, but I have a hard time following instructions. I would need a really simple, straight forward guide. What one thing you would like to do more of? Play my violin. I used to take lessons, but then they got too expensive. Then the strings on my violin came off and I'm no good restringing it on my own so it just sits there, reminding how much I used to like to play. What are some things that fascinate you? Or, What would you like to know more about? Music, the natural world, myths and legends 9/20/15 Would you like any cookie butter (just to be clear, store-bought, not home-made, and does contain wheat since it's, y'know, cookie butter)? I'm okay with it. Is there any particular piece (or pieces) of art (painting, photograph, etc) that speaks to you in some way? 9/21/15 Would you like anything from Lush? I haven't tried very much Lush. I had a couple bath bombs that I enjoyed very much one time. I would be very open to trying more of their stuff. Do you prefer hand-made or store-bought? Either SPICY! Scale of 1 to 10, with 1 being "oh, that's a bit too much black pepper for me" and 10 being "ghost pepper? scorpion pepper? I laugh at these! I love as much heat as you can throw my way!" Where are you? 7 or 8. I like spicy stuff, but I don't want it to hurt. What is your BPAL "Holy Grail"? Coyote and Sonnet D'Autumne Black bear Moon, Mother Shub's Gingerbread Temples, and Mother Shub's Unmentionable Peppermint Cremes also get a lot of wear. I really want a good marshmallowy scent.

Companies like NAVA, Arcana, Solstice Scents, Possets, Haus of Gloi etc.....? I haven't really tried any other companies. 9/22 Do you have an affinity for any specific animals? Corgis! They are special little dogs. I lost my seven year old corgi to lymphoma this summer. I also have a four month old corgi puppy. Kitchen Needs or Wants? A micro plane. I could use more measuring cups too, especially if they were in bright colors! Makeup! Do you like it, would you want some? If so what brands do you like to wear? I don't wear makeup. Chocolate fiends ahoy! What kind of chocolate do you like? Do you like any other things in it or just plain good ole chocolate? Chocolate. Yes. Just yes. I am a chocolate fiend. I like everything from super bitter dark to milk. I love it paired with nuts and fruits and interesting bits. I also like it plain. It's hard to go wrong with chocolate. I love to try interesting new flavors. I do not like white chocolate. Would you be opposed to receiving a ton of Halloween themed items? Some would be okay. I don't have a ton of places to put random stuff though. I tend to gravitate toward harvesty/natural looking stuff this time of year. My kids like cute Halloween stuff. 9/23/15 Would you be interested in any special little thing I might be able to pick up from the Great Lakes Bat Festival this Saturday? Both Janell Cannon (author of Stellaluna and other kids' books) and Fiona Reid (illustrator for lots of animal field guides) will be there, so would you possibly be interested in something like an autographed copy of Stellaluna or one of Cannon's or Reid's other books? Or something from the Organization for Bat Conservation, like a shirt or other swag? Buttons or a decal would be neat. Stellaluna would be great. My kids haven't read it yet so it would be something we both could enjoy. What items from the Weenie update interest you, should you have to option of getting anything as a gift from your Witch??? Would you be ok with decants, or bottles? Just going to copy my response from the Weenie thread: I'll definitely be getting bottles of Apple Cider and Sonnet D'Autumne. I have bottles of both previous years of Sonnet, but it's one of my all time favorites. Ones I'm interested in: The Witches, Pumpkin Cheesecake Cupcake, Pumpkin Lager I've told myself I won't buy any more pumpkin scents. They haven't worked yet and I just don't have the money to keep trying. Still I would like to try them in hopes of finding *my* pumpkin scent. All Soul's, Dia de los Muertos These are oldies that I have not managed to try yet. Sugar Skull: I have a old imp of this and I like it, but it never makes the cut. Leaves and Apples: I love both bases so I would love to try any of these. I think I am most interested in Apple 1 and 5 and Leaves 3 and 5. What's your favorite scary movie? I don't really like scary movies. I think the scariest I get it Coraline or Paranorman. Blu-Ray or DVD? DVD Game systems - console or computer? Mac/PC? Which console? My laptop runs Linux Mint, my desktop runs Windows 7. We have a Wii, PS2.... and a Super Nintendo. lol A friend of mine is giving me her old PS3, but we don't have all the cables yet.

I really hate purses. What are your favorite fandoms and do you want to receive anything related to such? Harry Potter - I'm a Hufflepuff! Doctor Who- I prefer 9 and 10 to the newer ones. What are you planning to order from the Weenies update? If I can scare up the money I will probably be ordering Apple Cider and Sonnet d'Automne. The Last Huzzah of the NY Renaissance Faire happens this weekend and I'm going! Is there anything you might want? (Besides a turkey leg, which won't ship well!) Anything! I haven't been to a Ren Faire in at least 5 years! Do you like comics or graphic novels? Any issues or collections you want to read? I do enjoy graphic novels and manga. I haven't tried anything new in a while and would be open to it. 9/25/15 Let's say you have indicated interest in receiving a hand knitted item. What colors, exactly, do you like? If you could provide color swatches here or to pinterest (or something visual), that would help out a lot. I would really love fall colors, red, orange, yellow, brown..... Rich, fallen leaf type colors. Would you rather receive a bunch of little packages through the round, a couple of medium packages, or one big package at the end? However my witch wants to do it, though I do like to hear from my witch occasionally, just an ecard or something is fine! For those of us with out-of-country Witchees, would you be happy with receiving a few packages from local to you merchants (say, through Etsy or equivalent)? Totally fine. Would Witchees like something from IKEA? (Or any other not always accessible by everyone store?) Probably, but I have literally never been in an IKEA in my life. If/when you go to the mall, for which store(s) do you beeline? Malls are not really made for big women. I rarely go to them. Do you receive any subscription boxes (julep, lootcrate, ipsy, birchbox, etc.)? No. For Christmas last year my husband got me a 3 month subscription to https://www.skoshbox.com/and it was amazing. Do you like tarts/candles/incense? If so, what type of scents? I don't have anything to use tarts in. I like candles, I don't use a lot of them because asthma. Soy candles seem to be best. Please, no incense. Is there anything you wish you could have picked up from the Dragon*Con exclusives? Any of the peach hairglosses. Is there a GC you've been dying to try but haven't got around to yet? How Doth the Little Crocodile. I have been interested in it since I started in bpal, but I never got an imp because I assumed one would make its way to me eventually. It's been 8 years and I have hundreds of imps, but not that one. The questionnaire asked about gold & silver jewelry, but how do you feel about copper jewelry? Do you like colorful jewelry, or do you prefer to keep it neutral? I like copper and I love colorful jewellery. We asked about decorating style, but are you interested in receiving decorations for your home? Are you interested in things that go on the wall or things that go on shelves? I would love some decorations. Things that go on the walls would be awesome, my walls are pretty bare. Office supplies hound? Pens, pencils, journals, any preference, or favorites? I always like pens in fun colors and I love journals. Talk to me about socks! Is there anything, dear, dear Witchee, that I can get for you from Sock Dreams? Anything from another place? I'd love almost anything that comes in plus sizes! I love stripes and lots of colours! I have 17 inch calves, which seems to be a good thing to know on Sock Dreams. I live near a huuuuge candy store. What kind of candy do you like? Gummies? Caramel? Chocolate? Sour? Sugar-free? Love chocolate and caramel. I really like Haribo gummies. I like hard candy too. 9/26/15 How do you feel about animal products? Not so much animal toys or food, but more like furs, paws, bones, etc. No thanks. Are you interested in receiving any restaurant.com gift certificates for your area? There really anything available in my area. 9/27/15 How do you feel about "toys" - stuffed animals and the like? I like them. Smaller is usually better otherwise my kids will steal them from me. 9/28/15 Did you see the eclipse last night? How do you feel about astrological events, like eclipses? Any interest in the Blood Moon Eclipse scent from BPAL? I did see it. I love astrological stuff. I don't know if the scent is quite for me, but I would love to try a decant. Witchee's, how tall are you? And perhaps, what's your arm span (from wrist to wrist)? 5'7'' How do you feel about the 4 elements? Or are you more of an Asian 5 elements person? Do you feel strongly about any of the elements, like a connection or a preference? I've always felt a connection to air and earth. Fire in probably my least affinity. How do you feel about bento boxes? Is it something you would use if you were to get one? I use them for my daughter's lunches. Scarves, shawls or cowls? Mittens, gloves, fingerless mitts or wristlets? Scarves, shawls, cowls, gloves, and mittens are all great. how do you feel about online classes? Like, say, craftsy or creativebug? Or even lynda.com? I've never heard of them, but they could be fun! 9/29/15 What do we want from Paintbox Soapworks? I have my wishlist above! If I were to make you some art, would you prefer a frame that hangs or one that sits? And what color/style would you prefer? How do you feel about gourmet marshmallows? This was my question, hehe! I love them! Are you a slatherer or a dabber? Usually a dabber. My allergies prevent me from wearing a lot more of them time. Mint perfumes are a exception. Talk to me, dear witchies, about tea. I know we've covered this a little, but I really need the nitty gritty here- not just companies you like and don't like (Teavana? Adagio? David's? Some tiny place?) but I also want to know the other stuff: top 3 flavors, loose or bagged, the kinds of tea accessories you use- or have always wanted. Be specific. Provide links if necessary. Tea. The kiddo is sleeping right now so I have time to elaborate on tea. I have a lot of Adagio tea. Like, a cupboard full. I haven't really tried many other companies because Adagio is affordable and convenient. The only other company I have tried loose tea from was Simpson and Vail and I hated everything I ordered from them. I would really love to try others though. My brewer is Adagio ingenuiTEA. Hmm, favorite teas.... I really like Adagio strawberry black and the summer rose black, black dragon pearls, and I love jasmine tea. I'm really fond of chai as well. I have a few fandom blends that I buy regularly that I really enjoy: http://www.adagio.co...tml?blend=16856 http://www.adagio.co...tml?blend=41982 http://www.adagio.co...tml?blend=19749 I do not like herbal teas or rooibos. Villainess is putting out brand new stuff for the first time in a while (as opposed to bringing back former lines). Sooo.... who wants it? Fire, ginger, and salt leaf all sound nice. LOST TRACK OF DATES. I SUCK. 10/2-10/3 How does everyone feel about duct tape crafts? Any favorite patterns? I have never really looked into it too much, but I love homemade stuff! Are there any flowers you especially like? I like roses and lilacs (I know, I'm allergic, but I love them!). Phlox I like most flowers. Would you be interested in any cozies or cases (yarn o fabric, not hard cases) for tech stuff (phone, laptop' etc) or for cups/mugs/bottles or anything else similar. Tea cozy! I also have a caseless ipad that could use some love. Would you like Halloween or Day of the Dead themed ornaments or a "bunting"? Could be neat! Are there witchees who would like book related gifts like a booklight, bookmark, bookseat or something for your reading gadget,like a cover or a light for example. Bookmarks are always good. I've never heard of a bookseat before, but they look pretty neat. I make handmade journals, mini albums and similar items. Would my witchee be interested in something like that? Those sound lovely. What songs/music/artists/CD's do you like to listen to around Halloween? The same stuff as usual. Are you interested in leg warmers at all? Nah. Is your Halloween style scary, cutesy, folksy, grotesque . . .? Natural, harvesty stuff. Cutesy is fine. Folksy is good. I don't like gory/scary. 10/5/15 I bought the Portal board game last week & it came with a Portal 2 steam free download code. I already have the game on another console & it's one of my favorite series of all time. Soooo, would you want it? I've never played it, but would like to. 10/6/15 Have you read The Martian? Or do you plan on watching the movie? I have neither read nor watched it. My husband wants to see it at some point and I never say no to books! NaNoWriMo - Pertaining to that, how does everyone feel about such things? Will anyone be participating? How about NaNo swag, is there any you want? I've done it in the past, but I am uncertain about whether I will this year. Honey or beeswax products? Discuss. Yes. How do you feel about bumper stickers and car magnets? What do you like--cute, pretty, snarky, geeky/fandomy? Window stickers are great. I put bumper stickers on my computer case. Do you have any phobia's that your Witch should be aware of? Nothing that would impact Switch Witch, I think. Trading Post Weenies are live! Anything calling to you? Pumpkin Light, All the Leaf hair glosses except the one with red musk and neroli, October claw polish. 10/7/15 Speaking of nail things, it that time of year and I am doing my jamberry order, Would you want some Lovely Jamberry's for your nails? I'm not sure these would work on my nails. I have little hands and teeny nails. 10/8/15 Do you like or want to try Marmite? I've never tried it. I admit to a morbid curiosity. Some folks have already said they do not want used nail polish. If you haven't already chimed in about that... would you be interested in a bottle of BPTP claw polish (in this case, either Event Horizon or Baku) that has been used for one manicure? bptp nail polish is my one exception to no nail polish. I'm curious to try theirs. 10/9/15 Are there any DISCONTINUED (not LE) BPAL oils that you wish you had, or had a little more of? Hmm... Baghdad, March Hare, the discontinued Gaimans..... I'd like to sniff Antique Lace, since it is such a legend. Is there anything fairly basic that you're always running out of and need to buy more of? Scotch Tape and Dish Towels Anything interest you from the recent Blooddrop update? I've never tried Blooddrop. Browsing the perfume quickly though, Apples and Bones, At the Edge of the Beautiful Haunting Woods, Kittens and Pumpkins, and Misfortune sound nice. 10/10/15 How to you feel about foreign spices/flavorings? I like them! I do a lot of cooking and I'm always willing to try something interesting. 10/12/15 Dearest Witchee, can I get you anything from Shiro Cosmetics? I'm going to place an order soon and perhaps you are interested in some of their goodies? https://shirocosmetics.com(https://shirocosmetics.com) In a parallel universe somewhere there is a me that knows how to put on makeup and she would be so excited about this. This universe me doesn't have a clue what to do with makeup.

I have a decant of the original and while it smells good, I never sought out more. It seemed to me a rather generic chocolate scent. The staying power was poor. This one though.... This is is different. This is rich dark chocolate with a somewhat evil feeling edge to it. The staying power is very good, I've been wearing it about 7 hours now and it is still going strong. I've very happy with it.

I don't usually like red musk. There have only been 3 blends ever that I have cared for with it as an ingredient. (Midnight Kiss, The Soldier, WILF, to give you an idea of my tastes.) I decided to give this a try anyway because it's legendary. When it first goes on I can immediately tell that this is a red musk blend that I am going to like. It's more airy and gentler than any red musk scent that I have tried before. I can actually smell the other notes that are in it instead of them all being drowned out by the musk. I am liking this a lot at this stage. However.... The dry down is dryer sheets. Not fresh, new, sharply soapy dryer sheets, but one that has been used. Warm, lightly perfumey, and it leaves you tasting soap in the back of your mouth if you breathe it in deeply. I'm disappointed, the first half hour or so smelled so good. I'm going to leave it to age a bit and see if it changes at all. *I have never tried the original, so I can't compare it to that.

Unf. This is gorgeous. This is no suntan lotion coconut. This is creamy, marshmallowy, almost toasted coconuty beauty. This is warm and wonderful!

Black musk is one of my favourite notes ever. All the sudden I am getting a reaction to it. I've worn two different blends (that I have never had trouble with before) with it recently and both have given me cinnamon oil like reaction. Has anyone ever just started randomly reacting to their perfumes after years of owning them? Do you think it could just be my extra dry skin right now? I haven't been reacting abnormally to any other notes....... I really don't want to lose my ability to wear my black musk blends.

I was gifted a bar of this soap so I decided to give it a try. That being said, I don't really like Snake Oil. It tend to move between 'meh' and 'blergh' depending my skin chemistry at the time. In the shower: "That is unpleasent.... I know that smell. It's not Snake Oil but I know and loathe that scent.... Oh, god it smells like my carpets after I shampoo them!" And it does, wet rug, chemicals, hint o'wet dog hair. *shudder* The worst was yet to come. I'm in my room after my shower and I start to smell urine. I get really pissed off because I assume it was my dog. I go searching for the inevitable wet spot. Nothing, in fact I remember now that dog was in her crate while I was in the shower. Oh. That would be me. Smelling like pee. And wet dog.
