Thanks for looking, and for being awesome. Love you all.

BPAL, NA, Possets, and so forth
Nov. 17th, 2024 03:06 pmMost of what I have here is limited edition or discontinued general catalog. There are some rarities here. For information on fragrance notes, I recommend the BPAL Forum reviews at https://www.bpal.org/ or Scentbase or one of the other scent hobby databases out there.
Please assume that labels are not perfect, except for my backup bottles. Bottle labels may be scuffed. Imp labels are usually curled, and there may be an oil spot or two. Or ten. In short, if you’re looking for pristine, this is so very not the sale for you.
Round 3 is special. On the upside, there's no minimum. On the downside, I will ship by any method you choose, because you pay the shipping. (Small packages within the US cost about $4 or $5 via Ground Advantage; bottles may increase the weight enough that it's more, but rarely above $10. (When it does, I often offer to go halfsies.) If you want to check the US Postal Service price calculator, my zip code is 55407. PayPal sometimes gives me a discounted shipping rate, which I will refund the extra of to you, or to me if we've gone halfsies to keep your costs down.)
Posting a comment here is the way to initiate a purchase. (If that's not possible, you can email me at lionesselise AT gmail DOT com.). I will do my best to take people in order of posting.
Payment is PayPal. If you want to use a credit card without having a PayPal account, I can invoice you.
I'm not up for swapping right now with one exception:
I will trade pretty much anything for some Luctor et Emergo from People of the Labyrinths.
( ... so many bottles ... so many imps ... )
Ridiculously special freebie for an astronomical level of purchase:
UNOPENED Bandit by Robert Piguet still sealed in original box. Yes, that one. Eau de Parfume Natural Spray, 1.7 fl oz50 ml e, certification on the side for Givaudan Fragrances Corporation, photographs available on request, yup - free with purchase of $200. It's supposed to be amazing but it has dealbreaker notes in it for me, alas. A friend gave it to me, and I would rather have it go unopened to someone who can enjoy it than pit myself against those notes.
Thank you for getting this far!
P.S. Please do check my math. I sometimes forget the "multiple bottles for Y amount" so doublecheck, yah? I don't want to overcharge.
August is my Birthday Month Sale
Aug. 10th, 2024 03:53 pmAs always, there will be more markdowns as we go through the month. For fierce bargain hunters, I recommend keeping close watch on August 22, where there will be very temporary big markdowns to celebrate my birthday actual, and on August 31 when the sale comes to a close. That last day gets pretty lively with the markdowns, especially the last few hours. If there's something you've always wished for, you might find it at 75% off then.

Because you know how I get. ;-)
NOTE as of Wednesday, November 6, 2024:
THE PERFUME SALE has a NEW POST at https://elisem.dreamwidth.org/2007247.html
This is Round 3 of the perfume sale.
NOTHING BELOW HERE APPLIES ANY MORE.
PLEASE GO TO THE ROUND 3 POST. THANKS!
Please assume that labels are not perfect, except for my backup bottles. Bottle labels may be scuffed. Imp labels are usually curled, and there may be an oil spot or two. Or ten. In short, if you’re looking for pristine, this is so very not the sale for you.
Most of what I have here is limited edition or discontinued general catalog. There are some rarities here. Please buy for your own use or to swap with friends, not to resell for a profit. If I find out someone’s buying stuff to speculate in auctions, I’m unlikely to do this again, so don’t spoil it, OK?
Round 1 was the most annoying round, because minimum purchase of $50 and it’s US only, but free priority mail shipping in the US.
Round 2 is less annoying! The minimum drops to $25, and includes free Ground Advantage shipping in the US; if you are outside the US or you want a different kind of shipping, I will pay $5 of your shipping cost to keep parity. (I will ship by whatever means you ask, and you pay any shipping costs over that $5.) And there are freebies to select as usual. (If you don't mention freebies, I will assume you only want what you list.)
Payment is PayPal only. Posting a comment here is the way to buy. I will do my best to take people in order of posting.
Q: But Elise, why is your sale annoying in these particular ways?
A: Because I’m trying to make things as easy as possible on myself right now. Multiple disabilities and multiple chronic illnesses have me setting limits on what I can do. (I’m sorry for the annoyances. I wish I had the energy and wherewithal to pack a gazillion $7 packages like I used to back in the day. Future rounds will have lower minimums, once I’ve done Round 1 phases 2 and 3, which are the Nocturne Alchemy and everything else scents. It's Round 2 now, and therefore slightly less annoying, I hope! Round 3 will follow, with no minimum and with what I hope will be interesting package deals.)

Eau de Parfume Natural Spray, 1.7 fl oz50 ml e, certification on the side for Givaudan Fragrances Corporation, photographs available on request, yup - free with purchase of $200. It's supposed to be amazing but it has dealbreaker notes in it for me, alas. A friend gave it to me, and I would rather send it on to someone who can enjoy it than pit myself against those notes.

YOU KNOW HOW I GET
Mar. 7th, 2024 10:24 pmNeil boosted my sale online, and now things are selling literally as fast as I can put them up. If you're a regular on Etsy, you can set things to send you an alert when there are new pieces up, if you like. Pouncing is a strategy, and the alert is a useful thing, I am told.
What's coming up includes a lot of very seriously shiny stuff, because Swarovski. Specifically, ungettable Swarovski, the stuff they stopped selling to us hoi polloi, or however that should be said. However, my sister told me about a bead store that she loves that was closing, and to make a long story short, I now have the amount of Swarovski crystal that your above-average bead store might have at the end of their run. (SO MUCH SWAROVSKI. It took me weeks to sort and label it all. So much delight!) Anyhow, I turned a bunch of it into a pendant and a lot of earrings. Come see what you think, yah?
If you find something you like, and you would like me to hold it through more days of the sale so you can see if anything else pounce-worthy comes along, just tell me to "Let it ride," and I'll combine everything at the end and refund you the excess shipping.
Please spread the word about the sale if you can! As I said elsenet, I thank you, my family thanks you, the people who are going to take down the broken tree and haul it away thank you, the people doing our health care directives and wills thank you, my artist's wrangler thanks you, and so do the makers of ice cream. (I am coping with ice cream this week.)
31 minutes left of the sale

Have fun!

https://www.etsy.com/shop/LionessElise
As always, I'll probably mark a thing or two down a little bit more as the sale proceeds. Also, I'll keep adding new things. Whee!
Edited to add: and please please do let people know, yah? Thank you in advance!
very exciting sale
Dec. 27th, 2022 11:36 pmI've marked almost everything down, and I do continue marking certain things even further down as the sale goes on. If you want Etsy to send you alerts when I reduce the prices on things, they can do that. Things get pretty lively on the last day.
If you want me to, I can hold things and combine shipping at the end. Just tell me "let it ride," and I will. That way, when I mark stuff way below the free shipping threshold, you're already covered. I'll combine and send you a refund for the overage.
There, I think that's everything I was supposed to tell you.
Here, have a LionessElise Etsy shop link.
