kebechet Report post Posted June 8, 2004 I'd write more, but it's 1am, and I am dead tired. We're starting to move the Lab to the Atwater Village location tomorrow, so I really need to get some sleep. But here they are... the new scents, as promised! + LIMITED EDITION PERFUMES FOR JUNE HAVISHAM -- The embodiment of heart-wrenching loss, torment, of mad, obsessive cruelty and chilly revenge. This is the scent of a frost-limed wedding bouquet, frozen forever in time. JUNE GLOOM -- Teddy's gloriously dismal creation. As a lover of rainy days, grey skies and chill air, summer is his antithesis. A spell of June Gloom is always welcome in our household. A bouquet of bright summer flowers dampened by the scent of morning mist and rain. + MAD TEA PARTY THE DORMOUSE -- A dizzying eddy of four teas brushed with light herbs and a breath of peony. TIGER LILY -- A feisty bouquet of golden, warm, gently honeyed lilies. THE UNICORN -- A misty, almost luminous perfume: wispy linden blossoms, white flowers, and a touch of sweet herbs. + BEWITCHING BREWS SHATTERED -- A scent as sharp as glass shards, and as brittle as a broken heart. The formula came to me - quite literally - in a dream, and is named after, and created in memory of, the last poem that I ever wrote… almost ten years ago to the day. A blend of white champagne notes, grapefruit, lotus, slivered mint and crystalline aquatic blooms. The Lion will not be available until the August update. I am, however, never too tired to cross-post like a fiend. Mea culpa! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ishtar Report post Posted June 8, 2004 Woohoo! The Dormouse, Tiger Lily and Shattered sound wonderful to me! Thanks for posting these new scents here and good luck for tomorrow (go get some sleep!) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kebechet Report post Posted June 8, 2004 For some weird reason it's bothering me that I posted it over an hour late. I think I need to make some tea. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

On the note of 'Shattered' - the first short story I wrote was called Shatter, and it's haunted me for nearly 10 years too. Just struck me as a strange coincidence...

TygherRayn Report post Posted June 8, 2004 (edited) Ack! Another Limited Edition! Beth, you're sheer evil! And while I'm tempted to go ahead and order a 5ml of Tiger Lily now that I knwo the description. I think I need to hold off. I am ordering Hvisham though. Yesyes. Yum. I am assuming that it's the same pricing as June Gloom? Edited June 8, 2004 by TygherRayn Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MissAnthropy Report post Posted June 8, 2004 (edited) I don't see HAVISHAM listed as up for purchase. ?? And ordering "Shattered" is coming up as "Arcana". Well I put my order in anyways and sent a note about replacing that with "Shattered". *In HEAVEN* Waiting for that update was SO WORTH IT!!!! Thanks Beth!!!! YOU ROCK! -Leslie Edited June 8, 2004 by MissAnthropy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Requiem-of-Roses Report post Posted June 8, 2004 Oh, how gorgeous they sound. And, oh wow...Tiger Lily sounds awesome. Hmm, actually all three Mad Tea Party scents sound pretty good. (And, I'm very curious as to how Havisham smells, too!) Hmm...all I know, is that I'm definitely going to try the new Mad Tea Party releases eventually...

ipb Report post Posted June 8, 2004 for me, it looks like the menu on limited editions is old (no search, mad tea party, or forum links) and there's no havisham listed... ....but because i'm 1337, i figured out the ccnow codes for havisham and so it IS available for purchase through the search engine (as are the other mini-update scents!)
