Little Box of Horrors: November 2024
The following products and more will be available Nov 18-30 at the Little Box of Horrors (LBH) website. LBH is a monthly shop that is open at 2pm central time on the 18-30th. Shipping starts on the 15th of the following month and they will combine multiple orders. Their themes are based around Halloween, mystery, horror, sci-fi, and supernatural occurrences.

LynB Solid Perfume Into The Twilight Zone
Top notes: dried figs, bitter oranges, and ginger
Mid notes: white woods, sage, beeswax
Base notes: amber, cedarwood, and soft musk
Wow! Smells like a luxury designer perfume. It is so well blended, that I cannot really detect single notes. I talked with Jennalyn a bit about this and she confirmed it is her very own blend, not a pre-made fragrance. If this is an indication of what to expect from her in the future, I am stoked! The fragrance is fresh and clean, yet has a subtle warmth underneath. I'd categorize it as beachy or spa-like, but not overly heady. I think this will be a fantastic summer fragrance to wear anywhere. I told her I need this in a companion spray format too, so we shall see!
LynB Plague of Conscience- emerald green to aqua to blue to purple shifting multichrome crackle. Cap 250. Super shifty crackle and I'm here for it!
Victorian Varnish Fizzical A-Peele - A warm mauve and almost coppery base (prugly if you will) with green/gold/purple shimmers and gold reflective glitters. Cap 120.
Theme: Director Spotlight Jordan Peele
Inpso - Jordan Peele's win at the Emmy's!
Such a pretty neutral. The teal shimmery shift is the most prominent under my lighting, and the gold can be seen better in the bottle due to my lighting set up. I just don't have great luck photographing reflectives.
Victorian Varnish Freaky Deaky - A Teal jelly base, blue aurora shimmer, ghost flakies ranging in pinks/purples/blues, with chonky purple holo shred flakes and a touch of silver reflective. Cap 120
Theme: Director Spotlight Jordan Peele
Inpso - Wendell & Wild Demon saying
The maker warns about the flakes sticking up during application and I didn't experience this but thought I'd mention it anyway.

LynB Designs: Core Fragrance Collection
New new new arrival at LynB Designs store on Nov 8!! Spray perfumes and matching solid perfumes! Choose one or both formats. For longer lasting scent, layer them together by applying the solid first and then apply the spray on top. Maker descriptions are used, my comments are in italics.
Candied Fruits and Caramel- apple and pear blended with caramel, cardamom and clove. I get a strong clove aroma when first applied and settling as it dries down allowing apple to come through and later the sage. Definitely a warm, cozy fragrance, perfect for winter and holidays.
Don’t Harsh my Mallow- Fresh marshmallows topped with powdered sugar with added notes of smokey vanilla and amber. One of my top favorites in this collection. Not too smokey, not too sweet, and the amber is the perfect compliment to ground it. Love it so much now I just need room spray or wax! So yummy!

LynB Signature- sweet orange with warm vanilla blended with sage and salted caramel. The orange is softened and not sharp, yet it is noticeable among the vanilla and other cozy notes. Not cloying at all. It's one of those fragrances that make you stop and wonder what notes are in it as it changes on the skin. A nice wintery, slightly gourmand scent.
Matcha Latte- green tea and ginger blended with vanilla and toasted marshmallow. Very fresh and vibrant at the top, yet something almost chocolatey lurking beneath. A really good balance of both worlds - fresh and gourmand.
Spiced Plum- fresh plums, creme de cassis, vanilla, and soft woods. This one reminds me of gumdrops! Slightly sweet and fruity with vanilla and white woods to soften. I think it would be a perfect any-season scent.
Tea in the Garden- fresh jasmine blossoms steeped with white tea. This one is for all you Jasmine fans out there! It is blended well and very fragrant.
