My Demeter order came! After this thread I put in an order. So here's my reviews!
[More:]
I got the free Basil room spray. It smells like, well, not basil. Odd. Not bad, but unexpected. It smells like anise, or black licorish (well, same thing, really).

The dirt perfume smells pretty much the same as I remember. Spicy, earthy, not really like "dirt" per se, but pretty good.

The room spray is actually in a really nice glass bottle, too. I was shocked by that. Pretty big bottle, for a free gift. It's the normal 4 oz bottle. I was expecting some cheapie free gift (ala clinique).

So, happy.
Although, to share a story I told in IRC, they have some crazy customer service.
I apparently spazzed and put the wrong expiration date for my CC when I ordered. So they emailed me. From a yahoo account. And told me to email them a corrected card when mine was declined.

to email a credit card number!!!

They also included a phone number, which did not match the number on the page.

I thought it was a scam, maybe from someone who read my post saying I was buying from them, but I called (the number on the page) and it was for real!

Oddness. They also didn't seem to understand when I said just emailing credit card info is a bad idea. Nice people, though.
Thanks for this uplifting and behind-the-scenes report, Kelly, and now here's Brock with the weather and Nate with Sports!

I'm glad you did this, as I've only gone to Sephora and did scent-testing.

Dirt, smelled exactly like dirt in my opinion. Flat, dry soil.

Mesquite, however, was like sticking your snoot inside the actual bbq pit. Very, very real and intense.

Fresh Hay was good too, very authentic, and yet something either sex could wear year-round.

Good on ya. When I get another job I will order some myself.
