Violette Market Vintage Sale

[telesilla]

I picked up several 15ml bottles of Vintage Violette Market blends because the price was right and I was intrigued. It turns out that a couple of her notes just don't work on me. It's a chemistry thing, which makes it really frustrating because I can sniff the bottle and thing "oh I like that!" only to have it not work once it hits my skin.

So I have the following three bottles for sale. They've all been tested cleanly only once and are all full to the neck of the bottle. They're going for $9 on the site, and so I'm asking $10 for them, which includes first class shipping to anywhere in the US, so the end result is a better deal than you get from VM.

Honey Bee -- Sweet golden honey. Formally called 'Beekeeper'.

Snow Baby -- Vanilla bean, crisp winter air and a whisper of icy mint. Smooth rather than sweet, evocative of a walk on Christmas night. -- sold

Elixir -- Intoxicating. Honeyed musk and smoky vanilla. I should note that this is actually sold out at the VM site. -- sold

I also have a 1 dram (1/8 oz) bottle of Beatnik (Poetry night at a smokey café: bitter espresso, incense and dark woods -- In spite of the espresso note, it's more a dark woody perfume rather than a foodie thing; I kinda liked it but Nancy really didn't.) It was a freebie, so if you buy a bottle and want it, just say so. If you really want to try it but don't buy a bottle, it's yours for $3 including shipping.

I'm leaving this post here until Monday, after which, if no one's expressed interest, I'll try over at Evil Enablers.

Ooo. Could I claim the Snow Baby? I'm reachable via PM or the DW email.

I donated to Global Giving (since the dgmaae done in the Caribbean hasn't been getting nearly as much attention). Less than I'd like to have, since money is tight right now, but at least it was more than the minimum...

Elixr sounds absolutely delicious. if nobody's taken it, I'd love to nab it :)

(about to head off to a meeting but will be back in 45 mins or so)

it arrived yesterday -- thanks so much for all the extra goodies! :)

to my dismay, it smells like vanilla play-doh on me. :( I will give it another try in a week to see if it's a hormonal thing. it's so hard for me to find a good vanilla!

I like the idea of taking a pirtcue every day. I have just switched over to the Pro version and would like to be able to import the photos from the trial version to the pro version. I also agree with the previous recommendation of adding the ability to take more than on photo a day, possibly using one photo as the base of a package all of the photos taken of the day. One thing to consider, give the user the option to add additional or multiple photos of the day. If this makes the project to complicated, maybe consider turing the daily photo project to a photo album project.

I'm interested in Honey Bee and Beatnik.... any chance they are still available?

Thanks! =)

[telesilla]

They most certainly are! That'd be $13 to telesilla [at] gmail [dot] com.

Pe1r napja tale1ltalak titeket, me9g nem is volt mesrzem kommentelni. Ebe9dszfcnetben e9pp a fejle9cet ne9ztem, mert volt benne valami, ami engem zavart. Habe1r szerintem a 'szive1rve1ny' igaze1n jf3 f6tlet volt, egy fajta letisztultse1got suge1rzott, csak tipogre1fialiag nem stimmelt. A munke1mbf3l adf3df3an ege9sz nap ilyesmikkel "szf3rakozom", e9s e9pp eze9rt rf6gtf6n e9szreveszem az aprf3bb hibe1kat, de szerintem ezek egy blog szempontje1bf3l teljesen megbocse1jthatf3ak. Szerintem a blogokhoz ke9pest nagyon jf3 a fejle9c, dinamikus; tale1n kisebb javedte1sokra szorul, habe1r nem vagyok benne biztos, hogy ezek egy avatatlan szemnek is feltűnne9nek - mint a 'sarkokban' a 'foltok', illetve a HUNBRONY kf6ze9pre igazedte1sa, ezen kedvfcl szeme9ly szerint korrige1lne9k me9g a sze9lesse9ge9n is, mert most kicsit kisebb, mint lennie ke9ne. Meg tale1n helyenke9nt nem is ele9g kontrasztos.Szerintem a "ke9pek" e9s "videf3k" gombon is nf6velne9m a kontrasztot a he1tte9r e9s a szf6veg kf6zt, mert, főleg a ke9ken, elveszik a szf6veg. Mindezeket lesze1medtva f6tletes e9s dicse9retes, hogy ennyire lelkesek vagytok. [Internetorsze1got ismerve leszf6gezne9m, hogy a kommentemben nincs semmi be1ntf3 ce9lzatfa, me9g mielőtt be1rki annak venne9, csupe1n pe1r tane1cs, amire e9rdemes lenne figyelni.]
