I believe that is a bottle from "Squeaky Clean". Her bottles used to look like that or very close to it. Here's the link: Squeaky Clean Here's the description: Deep, dark, and mysterious. Fans of Nag Champa will be sure to love it. Scented with exotic leaves, resins, woods, a touch of patchouli and the faintest suggestion of the smell of musty old books and incense. This one lasts and lasts, probably because of its base of patchouli and wood. Nag champa smoke blends with sandalwood and other delights. Maybe you could email her the picture and ask her. ETA: I've never bought any of her perfume, but I remember thinking that the idea of a rustic typeset label was unique. If it's not from Squeaky Clean, I hope you find out where it's from. That would drive me crazy too.

Add me to the bottle pile for the cat! How can I resist "dead/alive" checkboxes!? Too cute! <---- alive....or....dead....alive....or...dead...which is it? The world may never know!

This smells so good in the bottle. Apples, with a slight hint of orange....fresh and sweet, but not really in a total foody way....but after it's been on for a while the chow line droppings rise up and leave me with nothing but a very dirty, harsh smell. Sadly, all of the freshness in the bottle does not remain on my skin at all. But, I think, for me, that Beth has captured the true essence of Pruno...stank and all.

PRIVILEGE Polished party-girl sleaze. This is a shameless scent, devoid of caution, regret, or introspection. This perfume reeks of tabloid glamour, and has no substance whatsoever. Armoise, tuberose, white citrus, rose absolute, oakmoss, tiare, tuberose, vanilla, linden, and lemon tree blossom. Although this scent originated with fine plants and the pure essences, the final result is a grotesque, eerily empty caricature of a debauched, narcissistic would-be debutante. This is more of a "classic" perfume scent to me ala the "glamour". It's lightly floral and watery. It seems to float on my skin per the lack of substance, I assume. This disappeared on me rather quickly. Like the party girl this represents, this is a very nice, light floral that is appealing, but extremely fleeting in it's glory. Great job capturing the fleeting feeling of beauty without substance.

My husband loves this scent for sleeping...well...me wearing it for our mutual benefit... The lavender is definitely there, but my favorite part is the next morning when I wake up and I smell like sweet, soft, fluffy, puffy marshmallows...not in your face sweet but a marshmallow hug! A big, warm hug! Gah...I love it and so does he. He's already made me buy 3 extra bottles, so we don't run out.

Oh my gosh, this reminds me of a big wintergreen mint! ETA: Now...an earthy, vetiver smell has come out and the mint has all gone away...

I've been meaning to post this for quite some time. Both of these databases are awesome! Nice work! I even went over to Open Office and started poking around. I haven't used a database in...well...forever, but you guys make them look very chic!

Thank you! I'll check it out.

I know someone who wears Oscar as her signature scent. Her birthday is in October and I thought I might include some imps with her present. What would you guys suggest that is in that family? Any ideas? Thank you for the help!

I see them! She put the "Liber..." part with the names and not the area. That's why I didn't find them when I alphabetized. I was looking for Ra, etc... Thanks for pointing that out. ETA: Just wanted to add...a big thank you to Nattie...for taking the time to update and even put together this massive spreadsheet! You rock!
-
Well, I think you're missing The Salon category. That's 16 scents right there. I would download Nattie's spreadsheet and save it under another name. Print it out and compare it to yours. If it's on your sheet, highlight it on her sheet. Then, everything not highlighted will need to be added or double checked. Nattie's spreadsheet was missing the 4 Liber Resh Vel Helios scents when I downloaded it the other day, but you already have those so...no worries there...and that may have been fixed by now. Good luck! ETA: Or, you could open both sheets side by side, add a column to Nattie's and "X" each one that you have, then sort her sheet by the "X" column, and copy/paste the relevant information of the ones without the "X" on her sheet into your sheet, if that makes sense.

Imp: Sweet cherry fruity candy Wet: Oh, my! Did I just put on a cherry lollipop? Dry: After about 5 minutes, the cherry fades down and leaves a warm, spicy amber After a couple of hours, still warm amber with a hint of powder. Although it smells nice and I love the warm "idea" of amber, I don't know that I really like amber to wear. Only time and many more reviews will tell.

Violet soap in the vial. Violet soap on my skin. Went to bed with it on one wrist and upon waking....the smell of my Grandmother when I was younger. More perfumey now, less of the clean, soap smell. Not what I want to smell like, but I like the earlier (before going to bed) clean, fresh smell. Too much violet for me to wear, although it's a nice scent memory. Interesting... I do not get any sense of coolness or iciness in this blend just fresh, clean violet soap from somewhere long ago.
