    In case you guys are wondering, I'm waiting for Friday's 13 update, and then I'll get the spreadsheet up this weekend. I promise!

    Hi MichelleK - Hm. You *might* be able to merge them with a built-in Excel tool, but I don't pretend to be an Excel guru. My best guess is that you would want to start over; I can't imagine it would be a pretty merge. I removed a number of columns from the previous incarnation of the spreadsheet and added a few new ones. Copy+paste might be your best bet here. Sorry Edit to add: Which reminds me...I've been on vacation the last two weeks, so I'll get to adding Raven Moon update this week.

    The Last Squished Jellybean

    It starts out a very strong anise, nice and spicy. There's a slight sweetness underneath that never gets any stronger. I hate licorice jellybeans, but this is awesome.

    I figured it would be helpful if they matched, for that reason. I've got a few days of nothing coming up, thanks to a wisdom teeth extraction, so I'll try to start the switchover then.

    Bat-woman marked for death, all of today's updates added! Edit: Upon reading Shollin's review forum update here, I'm wondering if people want me to revamp the spreadsheet to follow the same grouping and group naming conventions (i.e., Event Exclusives). It wouldn't happen overnight, obviously, but I thought I'd throw it out there for the spreadsheet users.

    Spreadsheet updated with the Tales of Death and Dementia, and the Chakras have had their discontinuation date marked.

    Cesky Krumlov v1

    In the imp, it's highly aquatic and green, like Irish Spring soap. Wet, it starts "drying" out very quickly, and I get a lot of sandalwood, dry crackling paper, and just an edge of that greenness from the initial stage -- aloe, maybe. It's a clean, fresh green, but it's an afterthought. Others have described it as The Castle without the blood, and if I close my eyes I can almost picture a bright sunny day next to a crumbling stone ruin surrounded by overgrown wild herbs. Dry: Where'd it go? This one morphed super quickly and was gone just as fast. There are traces of it left on my hand, like the clean/soap smell on someone who got out of the shower an hour ago. Absolutely no throw, and no wearlength, which is all fine for me as these aren't my notes. It was a pleasure to be able to try it, though!

    Updates posted. Included Sunbird and Vampire Tarot's initial release, The Fool, but have not yet added any of the WKAP scents. I'll wait for an official scent list for those.

    Hi all, I'm going to try very hard to get the updates posted this weekend, now that the C15 and various new CBLDF scents have been announced.

    Set v3

    For personal reasons, I REAAAAALLY wanted to like Set. I should have guessed from the Egyptian background that it would be all desert and musks, and that my skin would despise it. In the bottle, it's sand and heat over throbbing wet musk. Wet, I get sharp notes of vetiver and exotic spices. The very hot musks still dominate this scent, but what's this? A tempting sweet honeyed note? My oasis in the desert? Oh god, this becomes pretty intoxicating. I can't stop sniffing my arm. And then the heady tropical florals at the desert oasis take over and I cannot get it off my skin fast enough.

    Blue Phoenix v2

    Blueberry, for sure! In the bottle, it's sticky sweet blueberry, the same as is in Crawdad Dream, barely tempered with vanilla. Wet, it becomes a rich, dark, fruity scent and loses quite a bit of the cloying sweetness. There's some type of musk present, as it starts to take on a "blueberry-scented eraser" lean. Thankfully, that passes once it settles into my skin. An earlier review claimed spice but I think acquires more of a woodsy undertone, almost like sandalwood. It's a mature blueberry scent, not at all like Strawberry Shortcake's companion. It has very little throw, but seems to linger for a while.

    Poenari helpfully pointed out that I'd missed adding Yorick as part of the April Fools' release. How quickly we forget those we knew! He's now included.

    Select all by hitting Ctrl+A, then right click and select "Format Cells..." Select the Alignment tab, and check the "Wrap text automatically" box. I'm using OpenOffice, but the Excel steps are about the same. Edit: Additionally, Planting Moon has been added.

    New stuff will always be at the bottom, and the date column will tell you what's newest. I think most people copy out the new lines and paste into their own annotated versions. Velvet, Le Mat, etc. are already there. I'll add Planting Moon tonight or tomorrow. You can always check my sig for the last updated date
  22. The numerals were almost completely rubbed off of mine. I see very faint Cs, and at least two Xs at the end. I *think* it's CCCXXX -- 330. In the bottle, there's a very faint trace of the Snake Oil, blanketed heavily by what I think is violet and something vaguely tropical. Passionfruit?! Wet on my skin, I detect notes of coffee, some kind of wood, and a very sharp floral. As it dries, cotton. This is a really weird and schizo scent, and contains very little SO.
