I put some of my Delightful Rot perfume oil in my beard today on top of all my sexy clothes
Felt like a classy Khal Drogo
This may be the best review I’ve ever gotten.
I absolutely LOVE the Thor. I slather myself in it. Seriously, it’s so good. As an aside… will you be making Game of Thrones line? I’d loooove...

A quick overview (in case I don’t end up writing full accounts of all of them later, which I intended to do last time but then didn’t):

So my mother, in her quest to get on the transplant waiting list, has just had a mammogram. She calls me to tell me about the experience.
“They said I couldn’t wear any jewelry or any deodorant. So I wore one of the perfume oils you left at home.”
“I left them at home for you, mom.”
“Yeah,…

Brief Delay
If you’ve ordered something and it hasn’t been shipped, there’s going to a brief delay in getting orders out. The washing machine in our apartment decided it wanted to fill our place with water, and it flooded out into our kitchen, living room, and my office area where I complete all the orders. Everything is now mashed together in one corner while the carpet dries, and I’m...

Blueberry English Breakfast Tea. I didn’t need to look this one up except to confirm what I was smelling. I love English Breakfast Tea. And blueberries added into the mix? Very nice. Especially right out of the bottle.
On my skin, it turns more musky, but not entirely unpleasant. Almost as if the…

Lush and seductive, blossoming with hints of mango, white peach, passion flower, dianthus and a warm amber musk, to ensnare heroes and villains alike.
First impression: This is an unusual scent, in that it has an after-smell, of sorts. When you first inhale, you smell the warm amber musk, and…

Honestly, I’m a Slytherin myself, so I wasn’t too sure about the whole Hufflepuff thing. But, I’m trying ALL of these, I can’t let my bias for my house get in the way, right?
Right out of the bottle the first thing to hit me was bananas. Are there even any bananas IN this fragrance? No, there…

I definitely picked up on the bay rum, the grave dirt (yummy!) and the leather. The gunpowder is a little more subtle. Straight out of the bottle and my mind immediately says, “This smells like Dean. Mmmmmm, yeeeeesss…”
Once on my skin, it is VERY strong. On the Etsy page, it warns about that,…

Omg, Boba I fucking love you! I have never tried bubble tea, but I have heard of it. I have no idea if this is comparable to any version of bubble tea. I just know that it smells delicious both in the bottle and on my skin. The cinnamon, the spice tea and ESPECIALLY the BLACK COCONUT.
I’m in love…

Right out of the bottle I definitely get mango and passion flower. Which is fine with me, since I did mention earlier that I’m a fan of passion flower. And if you’ve ever eaten a fresh mango? Mmmm….Those are pretty good. But uhh….what’s a dianthus? Well, as far as google could tell me, this is a…

Not….exactly the best of names, considering what a quim is….However! If you want pink grapefruit, you’ve GOT pink grapefruit. Lucky for me, I LIKE pink grapefruit. Especially right out of the bottle.
It’s a very citrus-y smell, and I LOVE the smell of citrus. Not sure I would need to smell like a…

So, this is supposed to be a masculine scent. I like masculine scents, and this one is no exception, but then I’ve always been a fan of frankincense, so right out of the bottle, I love this one.
On my skin, it’s not too bad. Actually, like the Sherlock one, I really like it. Now we just see how…

Pretty cool of them to do.
Makes me wonder if Fox is going to be doing something Firefly-related soon, or if they’re just being massive douches.
I think Etsy people should just market the hat as “Badass Sci-Fi Mercenary Hats,” or mention in passing they’ve made them before and just so happen to take “custom commissions.”
I’ve heard from others that...

Upon Opening the Sherlock bottle, my first thought was, “Oh my god, what is that delicious smell. On her etsy page, it’s described as, “a helping of pipe tobacco, spice cognac, 19th century cologne and stacks of dusty papers on old bookshelves.”
And that is EXACTLY what I smell. It is bloody…

I Believe
I will be sending the following email to Fox, as they have not responded to my questions:
“Due to your lack of response, and your particular wording claiming that my product violates “copyright, trademark and other intellectual property rights in the television series FIREFLY (the “Series”)”, which is does not, considering the content does not originate from Firefly...

ehonauta asked: Do you have a descriptor list somewhere of all the notes in the various scents? There are things I just won't wear no matter how much I love a fandom tie-in, and I can't figure out how to tell what the scents are without clicking through to each scent individually.

There is a conspiracy to keep me at 799 followers. I was going to have a sale at 800 and every time I get a new follower I get excited, but it’s always at 799.

Getting Sassy With Fox
Here’s how the emails have gone so far:
Delightful Rot to foxip:
Could you please specify if it’s the phrasing ‘Leaf on the Wind’ that
you hold copyright to?

Leaf on the Wind
Has been discontinued. Apparently the Intellectual Rights manager of Fox has contacted Etsy regarding my Leaf on the Wind products and it’s a violation of copyright.
Sigh.
I’ve contact the IR manager to see if it’s the specific phrasing ‘Leaf on the Wind’ they protest to, because obviously everything else is my creation and design. I may just have to change the...

Everyone who has spent more than ten minutes talking to me ever knows I always have a billion bills to pay and not even half the money I’d need to pay them off, yet I still somehow thought it’d be a good idea to buy a perfume oil from overseas.
And… guess what.
Best fucking decision…
