Mod Post regarding burning_bryght's pending decant circles:

http://community.livejournal.com/sinandsalvation/5518449.html

Just walked in the door to a nice surprise!

Our package is here!

I won't have time to check it until tonight and I won't be able to start decanting until tomorrow night or Tuesday, but I'll do my best to have them out to you all as fast as I can while keeping up with all my other holiday stuff.

Wheeeeee! Oh...and...Happy Holidays everyone! :)

I feel like a dork, but was there an announcement for Black Lace being resurrected at DD? And is there any decant circles for it that still have an imp, half imp, sniffle tester?

Thanks ^_^

Will there likely be any Yules or Anniversary scents at the January will-call?

I'm sure this is on the forum somewhere, but I've never quite been able to navigate anywhere that type of ... system?  thing?  BB? is used....

Has anyone noticed that babies react to their BPAL?

I spent time with my cousin's 6-week-old baby recently, and he did not like my Snow Angel Resurrected at all! Whenever he was close enough to smell it, he fussed. I wore Ostara the next day, and he was much happier.

I've also heard from a friend that her son loved Eat Me when he was a baby - he'd grab her wrist whenever she wore it.

Has anyone else seen reactions like this from the babies in their lives?

I applied MVJBA Pancake Breakfast for the first time ever yesterday morning. AND IT'S STILL THERE! I have had this scent on for approx. 30 hours now and it's only a little faded. In fact, the hair that got tucked behind my ears yesterday has it full force. I didn't reapply once throughout the day yesterday and I cannot get it off me to save my life. It survived a freaking shower. I feel like I'm just going to have to find something that will layer well with it, or go through another day smelling like an IHOP.

I have never had this problem with BPAL. There has never been a scent where I said "Man, I would like it so much more if it didn't last SO LONG". What about you? Anyone else have at least one that just never fades away? It wouldn't be so bad if this one didn't make me hungry.

It's that time again :) Time for me to spend my Christmas money shipping your unwanted, unloved or space-taking-up empties to my house. *s* I have quite a few now but there are still tons that I don't have, so if you've got any empty or very-nearly-empty BPAL/BPTP bottles lying around, please let me know what you've got so I can see if there's anything I'm missing :) Thank you! xxx

Does anyone have an idea of when exactly the Anniversary scents are coming down?
Perhaps if I contact Customer Service Monday?

Haven't gotten my decants yet so no testing. May have to buy a few bottles blind. Or not.

Does anyone have any recommendations of which of those scents are crowd pleasers?
Thanks and Happy Holidays.

I'm trying to find the name of a scent. It was one of the lab's monstrously huge flops, and if I remember correctly, I don't think anyone bought it. I think it had hot dogs listed as a note. Can anyone please help?

Thanks!

Hey guys! My anniversary decants have arrived, and I'm totally in love with Tin Phoenix (as I expected I would be--it's like a less sweet and more citrusy version of Metal Phoenix, another fave of mine). I seem to recall that this blend was having trouble selling in the decant circles, so I was wondering if anyone had some unloved bottles or partials! A bottle missing one or two decants would be ideal (as I could just empty my decant into it). Right now I have little to swap (although I'm expecting a couple of bottles soon which I may or may not love, so I'll let you know) but I do have a bottle of The Snow Storm that's about 75% full, a bit below the top of the label, and I'd be willing to swap that away for some of this yummy blend. Of course, I'd also be willing to just buy it off of you.

Let me know, and happy testing as the decants come in! :D

ETA: also Hod. Same situation. I need a bottle/partial of this badly. ;;

 Alrighty, as of 12.24.09 ALL of the Dark Delicacies, Phoenixes, 13, Yules and inquisitions have been sent out. I had a lot of help with this order and while I verily appreciate it, I had some issues with the final packages  that suggests there have been mix ups with the Phoenixes. So! If you got something you didn't ask for or if you're missing something, let me know and we'll work it out. I apologize now for the confusion and I promise that we will be much better prepared next year, lol.

Newest additions: a huge load of Yule decants!
The festivities have left a black hole in my bank account...I've reduced prices on a lot of bottles, and they'll keep on dropping. I have added some rare decants for sale including Hellhound and Sacrifice. Help me to clear out my unwanted scents before the new decade rolls in!

Finally got my hands on a bottle of aged Mme Moriarty, and i would love another to keep as a back-up. I'd be interested in any bottle that is near full and aged one year or greater. Please comment or PM me if you a bottle you would be willing to sell. I don't really have anything i'm hankering to swap right now, but if you have a wishlist i'd be happy to check it out and see if i have anything.

Merry Christmas, to those who celebrate!

I have a quandry--I decided to wear The Girl today, and now both my stepmother AND stepsister want some. SO, I would love to find some of her--bottles, partials (and then imps, if I end up with partials), anything. Help me enable my family!

Happy holidays, everybody!!
So earlier today I was gifted with a fantastic package of 48 imps, almost all GC.  I've been addicted for over four years now, and this package finally made me realize that, gee, maybe I should be recording what I've tried.  I've heard people talking about excel sheets and such, but haven't paid it much mind, busy paring down my wishlist and joining decant circles and drifting away from the "try it, you might like it" that this package has brought up.  I honestly don't know if I've tested a lot of these before; they seem familiar, but that could just be from reading the descriptions from days gone by.
So, tired babbling aside, how is everyone keeping track of things?

I think i'm going to be wearing Jack. ^_^ Warm and festive. Though, fruitcake is staring at me and going.....you know you love me. Wear me.

But I think Jack will be it.

Thanks to a very kind Santa, I have a little Pecker, and I'm going to sit on it because I love it so much. I am utterly unashamed of my extravagant love for Pecker. When I posted in the review thread on the bpal.org forum, I noticed that the few people in there before me included a few who found Pecker downright stinky. If you are one of those people, please talk to me, because I will absolutely find someplace to stick your Pecker.

I'm open to full or partial swapsies. Uncommon imps currently in my possession that could be yours include:

Unopened: The Last Squashed Jellybean
Cleanly tested twice: Reindeer Poop
Cleanly tested once: Sticky Pillowcase
Below label: Fruitcake
Half-imp: Libertarian

Also, imps/decants of some of the Tikis, including Opuhi, Screeching Parrot, and Rangoon Riptide.

I'm fairly certain I have a Giant Vulva that could be included in a swap for your Pecker if desired.

5mls: Try me. I recently surprised myself; digging for something else, I found a slightly-below-label cobalt 10ml of (obviously well-aged) Dragon's Milk.

Shoot me a PM or an email at gwyn.mcvay at gmail if you can help me satisfy my unnatural urge for the Pecker, especially if you can link me to a wishlist.

( The nitty gritty details: )

What I've got:

LE 5ml all tested cleanly

Lilith vs. the Giant Crab -- full to neck: $14 (forum name needed) -- enough_space
Fearful Pleasure -- full to top of label: $18
F5 -- full to just under neck: $14 (forum name needed) -- enough_space
Pet Magah Bird -- full to just under neck: $15
Stinky -- full to neck: $14 -- passionera
Summer's Last Will and Testament -- full to neck: $14



All funds go right back to the lab for my next order. :)

a little holidaze bump!
