I’ll put the cart back up either late Thursday evening before I go to sleep after spending Thanksgiving with my family, or early Friday morning. I will have to wait on Ambre Noir until we can batch more, but I think the others can go up. I’ll be taking stock tomorrow, and we’ll keep batching next week for the things that are low.
I think I have my first tester of the floral musk scent. I’ve been wearing it today and am pleased, though I need to try it again tomorrow. 🙂
I’ll have a real update tomorrow; just wanted to briefly check in. It’s pouring tonight! We’ve been having rain for days, and tonight it’s really heavy.

I put the shopping cart back up and will add the remaining scents as I continue the moss reformulations. I do have a couple ounces left of Winter Woods ready to go, so email me if you want to add a bottle of that to your order (I’ll add it back to the list after…

We’ve been getting quite a bit of rain in CA, which is good news for reducing the water deficit from our several-year drought. Above is a picture of a New Dawn winter bloom on my front porch, next to a rose hip. And below is a close-up photo of some moss on an oak tree by…
So nice to see the sun today! I went out on the porch at noon for a break to sniff some ingredient samples that came in today and the blue sky was a treat after a week of gray and rain. My Iris pallida have been blooming for a few weeks and are so pretty…
Hooray for the wheels back on the cart!
the floral musk sounds like holiday decadence 😀
Thanks, Dabney! Yes, this cart needs the wheels, lol. 🙂
The floral musk has ylang absolute, jasmine sambac absolute, tuberose absolute, blood orange, bergamot, ginger, vanilla, a tiny touch of coconut, Mysore sandalwood, cedar, oakmoss, musk. It was meant to come out in summer but I’ll release it whenever it is done.
“wolf whistles” ! (i love that ylang ab….had it in my hand not 2 minutes ago) i bet it’s the coconut that puts it over the top!
