Now this is exciting news! I think all the offerings from this house are amazing so something to sample with relish!
Ditto!
Ack, now I’m realizing I didn’t even try the last one yet.
Me three! All four are great.
I was laughing out loud of the Deer Tongue note, but then I found out it is a part of the lily family..the more you know 😉
I was thinking *exactly* the same thing. Deer tongue?!?
If I remember correctly, Aftelier had a perfume a while back that contained deer tongue, and there was an explanation on her site (probably to make sure people understand that it’s not an animal product) that it contains high levels of coumarin, so it probably smells a bit like tonka bean or something like that.
Then it probably *is* coumarin and not Deer Tongue at all.
It can’t have real Costus since it’s banned, so that’s probably something else too.
There is a flower, and also a fern, that goes by that name.
Ah, good..I’m glad we have cleared that out 😉
Def a split candidate!!!
Me me me!
Robin, I think Thomas is actually the one who took this visual photo.
Yes, I saw that! Great shot, too.
This sounds soooo good. I can’t wait to try it!
Ooh, I’m very excited about this one, too!!!
Joining the chorus- can’t wait for this!
Several of the notes are problematic for me but I love this line so I am interested.
