I’m going to take a few days without orders Dec 30 until Jan 3 so that I can spend some time with family during their visit (my brother and his family will be here Dec 31 through Jan 3). I shipped a lot of orders today and will get the rest of the current orders out tomorrow. Ambre Noir will be back Jan 7 (the batch is done and just needs to be filtered).
I’ll be back with a New Year’s post soon, but I just wanted to explain my scheduling. 🙂
I uploaded this picture of the new Lieu de Reves to the website. I’ll hold off on a newsletter announcing it for now, assuming that Tabac Aurea is almost done and I can send a newsletter for the two. I like the bit of extra tabac I just added to Tabac Aurea. The Sonoma Scent…
 As of today we’ve switched the formula for the natural shea body cream so that it has a slightly thicker consistency. The feel when you apply it is still the same smooth and easily absorbed cream, but it goes on a little drier. We had originally offered it in lotion bottles but found it…
New Scent: The new floral scent is done and I am scaling up, making larger batches. I’ll put the webpage for the new scent online in one week. Samples will be available then, and bottles will be available shortly thereafter. This is the floral scent that I have mentioned a few times here, though I’ve…
I’v been skin testing my last Bouquet Blanc mod and am pleased with it. I think I can send some testers out soon. I’m trying a couple little variatons but the overall balance seems good. Maybe it’ll come out in time for Australian spring, lol. I tried a sample of the new Tauer LOTV and like…
Wishing everyone a very happy holiday. I posted this picture last year but thought it was cute and wanted to share it again this year (it’s a Christmas card we received last year from some relatives in Sweden). Hope you have a great time with family and have a chance to visit and reconnect after…
I was deciding what label format to use given the size options I have, but I think I’ve figured out a good solution. I took down a couple photos I’d posted. Now I just need to adjust all the label files! Thanks for input from those who caught the post.
I got the fireside intense recently and absolutely love it. I’m so new to this world of exotic scents… this is the first time in my life when I’m actually wearing a scent purely for my own enjoyment and not necessarily for anyone else to notice. 🙂
Isn’t that fun when you make that realization! The advertising for mainstream scents is all about wearing scent for what others will think, but there’s another side to it when you wear them for your own personal enjoyment. You can use smaller amounts with less sillage and wear scents that have personal meaning, evoking memories and associations for you. It opens a whole new world to explore. 🙂
Glad you’re enjoying Fireside Intense! Thanks so much for the feedback!
Have a wonderful holiday with family and Happy New Year!
Thanks, Deva! Happy New Year to you too!
