Miss Lynx's BPAL AddictionBPAL Wish List | Non-BPAL Wish List | Big Bottle List | Top Ten | Scents I've Tried (and what I thought of them) | Swap/Sale |
Non-BPAL Wish ListAs my BPAL wishlist has gotten shorter over time (since there's really not much left that I haven't already tried), it seemed appropriate to add a non-BPAL wishlist too, for all the other smellies out there I keep hearing people raving about but haven't had the chance to try yet. I figure this might make it easier for people to swap with me if they don't have any of the few remaining BPAL scents I haven't tried, but do have some of these. I've also added a category for items other than scents. Non-Scent ItemsI'm actually open to swapping for all kinds of interesting stuff... Books, CDs (including homemade mix CDs), DVDs, interesting kinds of tea (black and rooibos mainly; I'm not big on green tea, or most herbal ones apart from rooibos), materials for bookbinding/scrapbooking/book arts of whatever sort, strange curiosities... Probably my Livejournal userinfo page is the easiest way to summarize my interests. It also contains links to my Amazon wish lists which give an idea of my tastes in music and reading. ScentsWithin each company's listing below, I've followed the same structure as on my BPAL list: the items in Maroon are the ones I want most (at the moment, anyway -- it's always changing); the ones in Dark Green are the second-most, and the Dark Blue ones are third-most... basically the maybes. The ones in Grey are the ones I've already ordered but haven't yet received. In most cases I've just focussed on the actual scents, not the product types, because I'm usually willing to try a scent in any form that's handy. But I've listed specific products in a few cases. Cobalt Blends/Lux VixenURL: cobaltblends.com / luxvixen.com/ Never tried any of their stuff, but a lot of their scents look quite promising. They have sample vials available for $3 each.
