...you Pipette and Hayven! Hayven, you're so lucky to have your sister come and visit with you. I kind of always wondered what it would be like to have a sister. My brother and I were...

...What a cutie, Sorceress. I want his hat. :PI have been....hanging out with my sister. She took a 6 hour flight (plus delays due to icy weather) to come here. I'm so lucky to have a sibling who likes me. She is out running the trail behind my place while I read forums as usual. :D

...I purchased something off of lastcall.com, so I got a letter in the mail about this.It is so easy for someone to use your cards almost as much as cash. I agree with you, Pipette.

...If I were in Scottsdale, AZ, I would definitely seek out The Perfume Shoppe. http://www.theperfumeshoppe.com/Default.aspIt's not TERRIBLY far from where I live, but it would take 2-3 gallons of gas for a trip.

...I have tried rubbing alcohol and vodka to clean them out. I still can smell the old perfume. I would really like to reuse the old sprayers, but I end up tossing them out or using them for the same fragrance.

...second Hayven -- if there is something about a perfume that is just off-putting, I won't get it.Also I look for perfumes that aren't too similar to the ones I...

...I usually look for something I can enjoy on all levels; I'm not very patient in waiting for a good dry down if the top notes don't smell great to me.

...I think Walmart has turned their online store into a third party seller joint like Amazon and Sears. Like they sell online "retail space" on their site, if that makes any sense. I dunno, if I'm shopping at Walmart, chances are I'm trying to find a bargain or pay less for something and I won't be getting a Bond no. 9 through their site!

...Sometimes I feel like a brand has become a celebrity status itself, like Juicy Couture, Guess, Thierry Mugler, etc. Am I strange for thinking this?

...I liked Covet by SJP for a while. It was an unusual perfume that I liked to sniff. I fell out of love with it after my boyfriend said it smells like a grassy a$$. :(Nowadays, I like Hidden Fantasy because it smells like orange cake or wassail, so I wore it during the winter holidays.I have been reaching for Katy Perry's Meow often this weekend. I have taken a liking to vanilla and pear this winter. As boring as some people find the two notes, I find them pleasant. Taylor Swift's Taylor is a soft and sweet (but not too sweet) apricot and sandalwood scent. JLo's Live Luxe is a fresh variety of melons, peach, and pear. The bottle is also very beautiful.Even though I like all of these, I have grown bored of them rather quickly with the exception of Hidden Fantasy and Meow. I am not sure why.
