possets: yule decant circle!

01/06 update: Just a note (and apology) that apparently I accidentally labeled round 2 of decants with "BPAL" instead of "Possets." All of the scent names and descriptions are correct, just not the perfumer's name. Sorry folks, and sorry Possets!

01/04 update: Confirming that, as of last night, virtually all packages not waiting on the BPTP Yules have been shipped out. I do have a handful of packages still in-progress, though. This could be because you made a last-minute addition, because one of your decants needs replacing due to a leak or screwed-up label, or other such randomness. Following is a list of those orders still in stasis: tailoredshirt, rayvn1, karnerblue, rachel2205, _ice_lady_, squidthief, roogna13, violetclove, pinkdot25, sarahahas, acciochocolate. I will get those shipped out ASAP, but be aware that I'm going to be out of town for the next 3-4 days, helping my grandmother while she recovers from surgery. I'll be theoretically able to mail/work on stuff while I'm with her, but no guarantees that I'll find the time!

01/02 update: Just confirming that (nearly all of) these are getting put in the mailbox tonight, to be picked up by the mailman tomorrow! I have all the orders that just contain decants ready to go now, but those of you who got add-ons or decants in the bottle are still in progress, and may or may not be ready with the rest of these tonight. If not, I plan on still having them shipped sometime tomorrow.

12/30 update: I just got back into town from holiday festivities yesterday (I thought I'd be returning on the 27th, but things came up). These are almost all decanted now, but not ready to ship by any means. I'm sorry I couldn't get them to folks while the sale was still on :( I'm planning on having them all shipped out on Monday.

12/20 update: I shipped all of the round 1 packages today, and also received round 2. Please be aware that starting tomorrow, I will be out of town with family for about a week, and will not have time to get these shipped (or probably get much work done on them) before I leave. I will work hard to get these out to y'all ASAP, and I appreciate your understanding that decanters need holidays too!

12/16 update: I finished decanting round 1 last night, and am labeling tonight. Everything from that round, that's not waiting on round 2, should ship Monday. I received a shipping notice for round 2 a couple days ago, but it hasn't arrived yet!

12/12 update: I'm about 1/2 of the way through decanting round 1. I'm going to be out of town through Wednesday and will resume decanting when I get back!

12/08 update: I placed the order for round 2 today, and also made the labels for round 1--decanting commences tomorrow!

12/07 update: I received round 1 of this circle this evening!

The first round of Possets was ordered on 11/30.

It looks like there'll be a round or two of more Yules, and I'll be decanting those too, adding them to this page as they go live. You can choose then whether to have each batch shipped separately, or all at once.

I probably won't be able to order scents for which I don't get a total of 2-3 full (4-6 half) decants' worth of requests.

If you don't have an LJ account, you're always welcome to sign up for my circles by e-mailing me at damon at panavatar dot net.

I am happy to combine shipping with my sale/swap and any other decant circles I happen to run between now and when these goodies arrive.
