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.
